Line 62:
** But aren't planes internally pressurized to mimic ground-level conditions? You know, to keep people from suffocating and dying? He's not cooking the omelette out on the wing. Airline food is probably microwaved not because it's the only cooking method that works, but because there isn't room for a kitchen.
*** Ever ridden in a plane? When your ears pop, that's when the stove starts acting funny.
* Iron Man 2 has what might be a Fridge [[Stealth Pun]]. What armour does Tony use on the race track? [[Speed Racer
** [[Ear Worm|Here he comes, here comes Iron Man...]]
* End of the first film, when the Arc Reactor blows, it fires a huge beam of energy up into the air, frying Stane. Now think, where else in the Avengers film universe have we seen something like that? Oh yeah, every time a wormhole is created in Thor and Captain America.
Line 68:
** Wait a minute... if the theories about {{spoiler|what happened to Schmidt at the end of ''Captain America'' are true and he was just transported to a different dimension by the Tesseract, is it possible that the arc reactor did the same thing and Stane is still alive somewhere? After all, they [[Never Found the Body]]...}}
*** Well, the beam fired up just knocked out the Iron Monger suit and (possibly) killed Stane. He then fell with the suit into the blown reactor.
* I laughed along with everyone else when I went to see ''[[Iron Man (
* Where did Howard Stark come up with all those radical notions about new elements and developing Arc Reactor technology? [[Captain America:
** Further, Tony is adamant on his stance that the government can't have his Iron Man suit, as well as refusing to let Stane study his miniaturized reactor in the first film. This is because, as the son of the man who studied HYDRA's weapons, he'd likely know exactly the sort of damage weapons derived from the Arc Reactor tech could do.
* Why the ''hell'' would the government employ a '''card-carrying idiot''' like Hammer as a contractor? Because '''''Stark still isn't selling them weapons!''''' In the first movie, he made it clear that he was shutting down the weapons development arm of Stark Enterprises until someone could reasonably assure him that his weapons wouldn't end up on the black market - as in no guns for Uncle Sam until he plugs the link to the Ten Rings.
** Best part? Vanko ''got the Ten Rings exactly what they wanted.'' By giving Vanko false ID and a ticket to get him to Monaco so he could pick a fight with Stark, they scared the US government into seizing Iron Man technology. Acting on behalf of his superiors, Rhodey stole a suit, and let Hammer pull it apart. Between Senator Stern's political/military connections and Hammer's criminal connections, '''Stark's technology is out of the bottle.''' The Ten Rings, via the connection the military refused to acknowledge, now has its "gift of iron soldiers". And "A man with a dozen of these could rule all of Asia." Say Hi to the Mandarin for me, Stern.
*** Here's where things get Meta: Tony Stark's primary mission for the Iron Man armor, as stated in the first film, was to keep his weapons tech out of enemy hands, ESPECIALLY the weapons tech ripped from his own Iron Man armor designs. The above point ensures that each new film in the Iron Man franchise will have an opening for a sequel.
* Would you believe that [[
* During Hammer's description of the Ex-Wife, which is mostly just him giving it flattering compliments that have little to nothing to do with its capabilities, he only gives one notable piece of technical information about it. He describes the missile as containing a 'cyclotrimethylenetrinitramine RDX burst'. [[Department of Redundancy Department|He used two different terms for the same explosive (RDX) back-to-back.]] [[And That's Terrible
* [[Genre Savvy]] fans have questioned why the government stuck Rhodes in a suit and let him introduce Hammer's demonstration at the Stark Expo with no training, given that War Machine is not only rendered completely helpless by a simple suit hack, but ends up ''doing more damage than the drones.'' Brilliance: They ''didn't'' expect him to have to fight because they ''haven't'' yet figured out that their universe is becoming a comic book. [[The Incredible Hulk (
* While re-watching Iron Man 2, I was wondering why Agent Coulson looked so miffed when Tony put an old shield under the energy pipes to level it out. Then I remembered from [[The Avengers]], that Phil was a huge Captain America fan. Considering that [[The Avengers]] movie came out years later, I thought it was an awesome piece of foreshadowing!!
* It might have seemed like a convenient coincidence that the old model of the Stark Expo, which was in fact a hidden model of the vibranium atom, just happened to be Pepper's office for Tony to find. But of course it would have in the CEO's office: they needed it for reference when they planned the new Stark Expo!
