Over the last couple weeks, Iâve been doing something that seems to have become a bit of an annual tradition for my husband and me: watching all of the Marvel movies in timeline order. Because mental health has been on my mind a lot lately, the way the movies tackle the topic has stood out to me even more than usual.
Iâve always been a big fan of Iron Man â in fact, my husband and I get into frequent debates about who is better between Iron Man or Captain America. Iâm a big fan of the fact that Tony Stark is just a regular guy (Well, aside from being a genius and billionaireâ¦) who decided to fight for a better world. Iâve also always appreciated the ways the MCU has kept Tony as perhaps the most human of all the Avengers, so when we got round to Iron Man 3, I knew going in that it shows Tony struggling to make sense of what heâd gone through to that point. But this time watching it really got me thinking.
