NOKW - Iron Man

Here comes the next chapter in our "I'm Okay With, I'm Not Okay With" series (if you don't know what this is, click here for all of the past posts):

Movie:  Iron Man

Basic Plot:  We get a modern adaptation of the Iron Man story and get to see Robert Downey Jr. nail the character of Tony Stark as he battles The Dude, I mean Jeff Bridges.

I'm Okay With:  The fact that Tony Stark is able to build a flux capacitor or whatever it is that he sticks in his chest with spare parts while being held captive in a cave.  The fact that he is also able to build a weaponized suit in that same cave without the bad guys noticing it, did they not look around his prison every once in awhile and not notice it?  The fact that the Air Force would shoot down Iron Man after he not only took out the bad guy's stash of missiles, but they were also trying to shoot down what looked like a flying man in a suit without asking a couple more questions about the awesomeness that is a flying man in a suit.  The fact Iron Man doesn't beat the hell out of The Dude faster considering that his suit is quicker and he should be able to get behind him and disable it way faster than he eventually does.  The fact that Iron Man is able to fly despite no room anywhere on his suit to store the fuel that would enable propulsion.

I'm Not Okay With:  The fact that the machine Tony Stark built to take off his suit looks way more complex than the actual Iron Man suit.  You know the machine I'm talking about, it's the one that comes out of the floor and puts on and takes off his suit and the one that Pepper walks in on him while he is stuck getting out of his suit at one point in the movie.  Seriously, that thing is amazing and yet it is designed and built by the time he finishes his Iron Man suit.  When did he have the time to build that thing when he was spending all of his time designing and tweaking his namesake?  That machine might have more specialized parts than his suit, so did he make all of them himself?  Because that would have taken forever.  On top of that, it is built into the floor, so he would have had to dig a huge hole in his lab which would have taken a lot of time and a lot of back breaking labor.  And even if he didn't do it himself, somebody would have had to come in and dig and they should have thought it kind of strange that some rich dude was digging a massive hole under his house.  All I'm saying is that that machine looks like it took way longer to build than the Iron Man suit, but we never hear Tony Stark even mention its construction at any point in the movie.  I am not okay with that.
