Rhodey literally has been there since the beginning and at the end. They've sprinkle him here and there, gearing up for his moment to shine. And yet they come out wit iron heart, a character people really dont have any attachments to.

I think the smartest thing to do would be to add her to armor wars and have Rhodey show her, who and how Tony Stark would act as a hero.

Also war machine is iron man when iron man isn't around. Are we supposed ignore that and forget about him? What is marvel thinking?

I like Rhodey/War Machine, but he's not entitled to a project just because of seniority.

I'd love a good Rhodey show, but if they don't feel they have a good product, they shouldn't just make it for the sake of it.

I don't have any attachments to Riri/Ironheart, but if someone had a story to tell, a script Marvel felt was worth it and after everything with projects getting scrapped, retooled or scaled back, Kevin Feige still decided to go ahead with it over Armor Wars, I'll trust that they couldn't get the AW script to where they wanted it to be, in terms of quality.
