There seems to be a bit of dispute regarding mention of one of Strange\'s potential patients, who is stated to be a United States serviceman who suffered spinal damage in an \"experimental armor,\" and whether or not this is a reference to Col. James Rhodes, a.k.a. War Machine, who broke his back in \'\'CaptainAmericaCivilWar\'\', or possibly a nod to a brief moment of exosuit test footage in \'\'Film/IronMan2\'\'. While these are obvious deductions, there seem to be some inconsistencies in details that cause confusion.

* Rhodes was not testing experimental armor at the time of his accident.

* Rhodes is older than thirty-five, the stated age of the patient.

* Strange rejects the case as not high-profile enough, which would be odd if the patient was an Avenger.

* The movie is confirmed to take place in 2016, six to eight years after the incident seen in \'\'Iron Man 2\'\'. One of the awards on Strange\'s shelves prior to the accident is marked with 2016.

* Finally, and most importantly, Scott Derrickson, the film\'s director has confirmed [[https://www.reddit.com/r/marvelstudios/comments/56w0q6/hey_everyone_reading_through_everything_will/d8mxv6y/ in his reddit AMA]] and [[https://www.reddit.com/r/marvelstudios/comments/56v5o4/doctor_strange_imax_preview_reaction/d8murlk/ elsewhere]] that it was not meant as a shout-out to Rhodes.

Since the last point is WordOfGod, I think it effectively closes the matter, but I\'m open to alternate interpretations. Personally, I think it\'s fair to leave the entries as just general references to attempts within the continuity to copy Iron Man.

* According to people who saw the IMAX preview, the serviceman was stated to be a Marine, and not a member of the Air Force, like Rhodes. I can\'t yet confirm if this was changed in the film proper, so if anyone else would like to clarify, let us know.
