The majority of the deleted scenes I would have left in the release version of the film.
Really? There were a couple I woulda kept, or at least tried a bit harder to work in, like the Stane/Stark talk after the roof got blown out (though Bridges went a little Over the Top when he fell in), but most of them were junk. The military parade was pointless, the scene on the plane was ok, but really didn't need to be any longer than it was already. I'd have liked to see the scene with Rhodey and the General, but it would have wrecked the pacing of the cave seqence. And the party at Dubai was completely a waste. He just left one party, no reason to go to another. The only thing I would have liked, would be if there were a scene between when Stane met with Raza and Tony telling Pepper to raid his office. The way it is, it seems like he sent the designs over and his engineers had the whole thing designed and built in like three minutes. The Stane pep-talk scene would have fit ok there, but it could have been reworked a bit.
