Nope, that is AGENT COULSON!!!
Meh, i was hoping the rings would be more Kirby-esque... alien integrated circuitry like.
stop the spoiler tags, fuck, if it's in a dumb movie trailer, it's not a spoiler
The actual trailer:
Kingsley's voice for Mandarin sounds really weird. Otherwise, super excited for this. Also, fun side-note: the insignias on his rings can also be seen on the flag behind the terrorists holding Stark in IM1.

Well, I posted a picture of it, but okay. Anyway there is already a pretty convincing theory that it's not actually the Mandarin but Tony in disguise.
48 second mark of the trailer.
They've obviously done some CGI and colour correction to the suit since this was released:Thor came out of the whole Raknarok thing from the Thor books... it would still exist without Civil War.
And i didn't have a problem with the characterization for those two (not that it was consistent in the tie-ins but whatever), but with the fact that they spent 12 issues with neither side making any good argument for their side (JCM did better), and then Cap surrender because someone might get hurt... WHAT?!
Anyway, i came here to post this:
Desert suit?! Should have changed the red to green or something, this just looks off.
Looks wayyyyyyy better in this still. Less cream and more white gold. Should make Frank happier.
Yes, they also mention the Ten Rings through dialogue. In the movies, The Ten Rings is meant to be a terrorist organization. They are, I believe, also involved in helping Ivan Vanko in the second one.
It actually looks to me like the robotic arm has the suit's head in it's grasp. Like it smashed through the glass to grab it, I mean.
Huh, now that you mention it, I guess I see it.
Still doesn't explain the dunce cap though.
Well, I mean, it's a trailer, so we're not supposed to know.
However, knowing how Tony Stark treats that thing in 1 & 2, I wouldn't be surprised if he put the cap it on it himself to shame it in front of robot arm number 2 on the left there.
It does, that slight hue change makes all the difference honestly.They've obviously done some CGI and colour correction to the suit since this was released:

I think what throws me off is outside of the helmet, the traditional Iron Man colors are reversed on that suit. It's almost always been red with gold or yellow trim, as far as I can remember (save for ones of a totally different color).
And yeah, Ten Rings helped out Whiplash in 2. From what I've read, I guess they're trying to avoid the alien superpower Mandarin. It sounds more like he's being portrayed as a behind-the-scenes mastermind for this one (along with being ethnically ambiguous this time around, not Chinese).

I dunno, I just don't really care as long as the character is interesting.
So judging from the trailer does Stark have like, telekinesis or Extremis power now? Cos that would be pretty cool. I know Extremis didn't do that in the comic but it would still be a cool idea.
I hadn't even noticed it. However, on closer inspection, it's not captain america's symbol exactly. The star in the center is replaced with the Anarchy symbol, so that's not unrealistic for an anti-american terrorist to have.
WEll it is way better, but still looks weird as a colour scheme imo.They've obviously done some CGI and colour correction to the suit since this was released:

The theory is it's Tony Stark in disguise, infiltrating the Ten Rings. No rings on his fingers in those two behind the back shots, and it looks like he's got something over his ears, akin to what Tony was wearing earlier to control the suit components.
Not for nothing, but The Mandarin is half-British in the comics and (according to Wikipedia) has been 1965. So, while Ben Kingsley is about 50% off on ethnicity (dude's half-Indian), it's not wholly incorrect. However, that kind of jives with what they established in the first movie - The Ten Rings is a very ethnically diverse terrorist group devoted to re-establishing the empire of Genghis Khan.
What's with everyone and that armour? The faceplate just looks silly.
It's armor that grows out of your freaking body! The faceplate could look like Jim Carrey's o-face for all I care, it's still cool.
Only the underskin grew out of him, he was able to uplink directly to the armor itself (and pretty much any other network) though, which made him stupid powerful for awhile.
Afterwards the whole armor DID grow from him. It's that armor that has several circles of light all over the body.
IMO that kinda takes away form IM's "guy in armour" thing, but whatever rocks your boat i guess.
