10 Things Marvel Wants You To Forget About The MCU

5. JARVIS Is Either Incompetent Or A Douchebag

Whenever you see Tony Stark in his Iron Man suit, he's talking with JARVIS, the artificial intelligence butler he created. It is made clear that whenever Tony is in the suit, it is JARVIS that is controlling it by doing everything Tony says. So what happens when someone else is in the suit, like Rhodey in Iron Man 2 or Eric Savin (the bald extremis soldier) in Iron Man 3? Unless both men brought their own AI with them, then JARVIS must be assisting them. In Iron Man 2, Black Widow says there are "redundancies to prevent unauthorised usage", which suggests Tony let Rhodey take the suit and explains why JARVIS would assist him, but that doesn't explain why Savin is able to use it. There aren't buttons inside that allow the user to fly and use the blasters, so JARVIS must be doing it for him. Is he a terrorist? And what was up with the scene in Iron Man 2 where he tells Tony the element needed to save his life is "impossible to synthesise", only to have Tony synthesise it just a few minutes later? Get it together, JARVIS! Quit being such a douchebag.
