If anybody can be thanked with making the post-credits scene cool/annoying, it's the folks over at Marvel. They've become an integral part of developing their cinematic universe, occasionally debuting new characters like the first appearance of Nick Fury, or dropping major clues to what was next in store. You can also count on each of these extra scenes being spoiled weeks in advance, and that may have just happened with Iron Man 3.
Those spotty chaps over at Latino Review had some eyes on the ground at the Paris premiere of the film, and they've reported back with what they say happens if you hang around for a bit. Be warned, there be spoilers ahead....
Cool? Ok, here's the description they give...
It starts with a close shot of Tony Stark on a couch talking about his various traumas, obviously he’s talking to someone, as if he was seeing a shrink, the tone of the scene is light and supposedly funny. Then we discover that the person he’s talking to is Bruce Banner/Mark Ruffalo, who fell asleep because of Tony’s boring story. Tony remarks that Banner has been sleeping during the most part of his story and yells at him, and Banner just mumbles and says “You know, I’m not that kind of doctor!” Then Tony recalls another memory and resumes his monologue, and then we see Banner starting to fall asleep again.
So....wait...no Guardians of the Galaxy? What's up with that? Maybe that rumor from awhile back was just that, merely a rumor? Or did Marvel pull the plug because the Internet caught wind of it? Or, and this is my guess, they didn't want to spoil it early and left it out, only to reinsert it when the film opens wide on May 3rd. At least, I hope that's the case, otherwise Marvel has started a new trend of just using the post-credits to yank our chains, just like they did with The Avengers.
