The Guiding Principles and New Rules document is now in effect.
Todd Thanos here. Thanks for comin out! Go on and pull yerself up a lawn chair, don't mind the rust.
We're three weeks out from my big to-do on Earth!
It'll be the best thing that's happened since Earnhardt Sr takin the cup, I tell you hwat
Anyway, have a Bud Light on me, I'm gonna go tell that skinny chick in the robes about that time at that one kegger, you know the one! Haha! What a hoot!
-Oh right, these used to be distributed under Paramount. How weird is that?
-It’s weird how bloodless the carnage is in this beginning sequence. Like, I get why but it’s a bit distracting. Dude gets his with a spray of projectiles that basically shreds a car door and not a drop of blood.
-It’s also interesting to see Stark basically completely unable to function in a combat situation, compared to what he’s become where he dangerous even without a suit.
-I’m really not sure what they were going for with Christina Everhart. She starts off by pointing out Tony’s war profiteering (which we later see Tony agree with), then she sleeps with Tony, and then she belittles Pepper who calls her garbage.. Just.. what exactly are they trying to say here? Am I supposed to be happy that Pepper dunked on her?
-What the hell is this music from when Tony is working on his car? Like, the instrumental portion is fine, but the vocal portion is just a guy giving a rambling speech about how things don’t work out no matter how hard he tries.. I’m assuming it’s a real song, but did people actually like listening to that?
-Man, Tony is just such a douche-bag. Like, yeah, that’s the point to start him out being terrible, but watching this a decade later and I have far less tolerance for people who act like assholes because they’re rich enough to avoid having to act better.
-Heh, I wonder if Jon Favreau thought anything at the time about inserting himself into this movie. What was probably just a fun throw-away move got him roles in Iron Man 3 and Spider-Man.
-I do like how Tony gets knocked forward while trying to do his slick shit “Behold this explosion” move when demoing the Jericho.
-10 Rings dude calls Tony the biggest mass murderer in US history, and the twins in Age of Ultron blame stark as well. Do real world weapons manufacturers have similar images in places like Iraq and Afghanistan?
-It’s weird you can hear Pepper yell “Tony” when he’s being water tortured. I’m not sure what the director was going for.
-Does Tony really hang out with Yinsin for at least a day before asking him his name? Like, even beyond Tony being an aloof douche, you think that conversation point would have come up sooner.
-I feel like Yinsin could have bought Tony enough time if he had stayed in the work space and just shot at anyone who approached the door. Then he wouldn’t have gotten shot.
-One thing I just realized is that both Tony and Steve basically had mentor figures die in their arms.
-Fuck, I forgot Jim Cramer was in this flick. The only thing I remember about him is him getting utterly destroyed on the Daily Show.
-Weeeeee. Transphobic joke! :razz:/
-Rhodey’s such a punk. “What? It’s not for the military Well, F U then!” Even if he’s not making weapons you could at least support your friend’s upcoming project, jackass.
-I love that the scene where the 10 rings uncover the suit was supposed to be filmed on a clear day, but the weather didn’t cooperate and it the sandstorm wound up making the scene a lot more atmospheric. That said, Raza really shouldn’t be out there with a colossal abrasion on his head.
-Tony “My math is never wrong” Stark completely misjudges the amount of force needed to keep himself afloat.
-”Billionaire Tony Stark was found dead today in a crater in downtown Los Angeles. Stark’s remains were extracted from a suit of powered armor which presumably fell out of the sky. Memorial Services are expected to be held next week.”
-Still can’t believe the manufacturing facilities on Tony Stark’s property can build an Iron Man suit in five hours. That’s nuts.
-Interesting seeing how elaborate the “suiting up” scene for the armor is, given how streamlined it eventually becomes, to the point where stark is hopping in and out of suits like it’s no problem in Iron Man 3.
-In the scene with Stane and Pepper, Stane comes in with a drink and pours himself a second drink without finishing the first. I think you might have a problem dude.
-Damage Control message on the TV scroll at the end here. Shame that TV show never happened.
-”I am Iron Man” is a great way to end this movie.
-I swear to god Nick Fury says “Avenger Initiative” and not “Avengers Initiative”

@Undead Scottsman the song in that scene is "Institutionalized" by Suicidal Tendencies
It's.... I don't know. I find it profoundly uninteresting but crossover thrash is a genre that existed and people bought records of, so, who knows

We have to get off Earth before one of these creatures kills Hawkguy!
Humor can be dissected as a frog can, but dies in the process.
Too bad Hammer was shown to be a useless weapon designer and Aim is probably destroyed. Having the world close to destruction would be a nice chance to get back those kind of villains show up and do something useful.

The only reason I know about this song is because it was on the Guitar Hero II soundtrack.

I always liked that Cap and Nat made a really good team. Ever since Winter Soldier.

She wanted to see if she really would have more fun?
You’re right, with blonde hair you hardly notice that she’s an exceptionally beautiful woman.
I would definitely rank it lowest on the list of Black Widow Looks
i thought it looked better in the movie than on the posters

Cut to Hawkeye saying "OK, this looks bad."
Next 2 hours 20 minutes is Hawkeye saving the world.
Phase 3 features Hawkeye in every movie, and whenever he's not on screen all the characters are asking where he is.

What's Mordo up to anyway?
Yes it is.
I'll have to wait two full days to watch it!
Really compared to infinity that's not a very long time to wait at all.

I'm surprised at how many of those I didn't know about.
