For Iron Man, I'd rather have a franchise page for The Marvel Cinematic Universe. I think all of the recent Marvel Cinematic Universe movies should fall under that category then as they are all interlocking parts to a storyline franchise.

I dunno about Iron Man though, while the Robert Downey movies count for the Marvel Cinematic Universe; Iron Man has already got quite a few TV series and independent movies starring the character. Discounting his guest appearances and nonspeaking cameos in other Marvel TV series; he had his own TV series in 1994, 2009, and 2010; plus an animated movie in 2007 and 2013; and he guest-starred in two Heroes United DVDs with the Hulk and Captain America in 2014. So I think he might deserve his own franchise page too as I think I've heard rumors he's getting another TV series soon as well.

Maybe we also need something like a "bridge link" from the Marvel Franchise Page to a Marvel Cinematic Universe Page as well as Spider-Man and Iron Man as those characters are part of the Marvel Franchise as well? Of course if we do that, we'll probably need to add a "bridge link" from DC to the Batman Franchise as well.
