However I am still not convinced that the 10 rings will be remotely anything like they are in the comics. I suspect they will be nothing more than just rings, even though Alien tech was opened to the world with the Avengers so why not have it in Iron Man? I do hope I am wrong though.

Best armor look yet and cool villain voice-over! But I have to say Loki and Red Skull were really good. But with Red Skull (and all the other villains other than Loki) they kill them off too soon.

Loki and the Red Skull are not dead what makes you think that?

Loki and the Red Skull are not dead what makes you think that? I thought the way I worded it made it sound like Loki wasn't dead, my mistake. I know he isn't. As for Red Skull there is a chance he wasn't killed, but we don't know until the next movie. But then there is Iron Monger and "Whiplash", they were both good villains and are both dead.

Sorry my bad your wording was perfect it was me derping, the reasoning behind the killing of Iron Monger and whiplash is that this has happened in the comics. Both were killed off whiplash quite a while ago actually at least 6 years now.

The cosmic cube grants its holder what he/she wishes, the Red Skull wanted to "Walk amoung the Gods" its very possible he was sent to Asguard as he reffered to the cube as the crown of odins treasure (or something very close to that). He removes it from a hidden chamber showing the Norse life tree, so you can make a good assumption that at the end he was transported to Asguard. The question is if he was sent there, what is he doing there at the time of Thor/Avengers.

The Cosmic cube cannot be touched by anyone, I think with the wars with the ice giants Odin felt it safer to be left on Earth where humans didn't have the ability to use it.

I agree more could have been done with those characters but if you look at it from a movie point of view. We will be very lucky if Iron Man goes past 3 as this seems to be the usual number for movies these days. It is very rare for a movie to go beyond this and even when this does happen they are often diluted versions of the original three you can look at Star Wars, Star Trek, Alien, Batman, Superman, Hellraiser, Paranormal Activity (to some extent). So it doesn't make sense to keep them around for sequels.
