We’re still walking and talking. Today we’ll get into the secret comic history (and future!) of Ms Pepper Potts, we’ll find a call forward to a classic Endgame moment and we’ll do a little diversion into the benefits of eating what the plants do.
As we revel in our double digit status, we’ll discuss the cute couple name for Tony and Pepper, drop another LEGO reference, discuss the artistic connection between Iron Man and former President Obama and get caught up some linguistic hiccups with some tricky Latin language quirks.
We discuss a simpler way to understand what exactly is happening to Tony Stark and how it relates to your car. We find out Gwyneth’s cold helped write the lines for a scene as Pepper. There’s also some great little details that foreshadow a new suit that is made for traveling. Sadly, Tony says goodbye to his art collection and we bid farewell to The Next Reel’s Ray DeLancey who’s joined us for the week! Boyd Counter: 5
The Next Reel’s Ray DeLancey actually loves hanging around with us, much to our surprise. He’s back and so should you because our story moves back to California and Tony’s palatial mansion that only exists as pixels. But what’s not imaginary is Tony’s spectacular car collection which we examine along with what’s on his desktop monitors. We also welcome Paul Bettany’s voice of JARVIS in this minute. And you too can buy the same water vessel that Tony Stark uses.
Senator Stern lets the words fly in the semi-hallowed halls of the United State Senate as Tony commands the end of his trial. Now things get tricky. There’s a deleted scene we’re all glad is not in the movie and that not just because Pepper’s hair goes full Medusa. But pay little attention to that because we’ve got a “boyd” sighting! Vanko’s back and with whips! And so is The Next Reel’s Ray DeLancey but with no whips.
Tony makes his case for no immediate threats from the purported competitors to the Iron Man suit. And this is not a subtle argument as he gets even with Justin Hammer who doesn’t quite know how to deal with the meeting chaos Tony causes. The Next Reel’s Ray DeLancey is along for the ride!
The Next Reel’s Ray DeLancey joins us to provide his own brand of insight and love for Iron Man 2. Tony’s Senate Hearing takes an interesting turn during Rhodey’s testimony where current and future technology is used in an amusing plot moment. And get ready for story time because there’s lots of great details hidden in Tony’s bleeding edge smartphone. Illumi-what???
The trial of Tony Stark hits a level of seriousness when Rhodey shows his disdain for all the nonsense. And prepare yourself, because Kyle has a premonition of a certain Marvel announcement that happens AFTER this episode was recorded. He’s a smart guy. So is author Ryan Dalton who concludes his visit to the Marvel Movie Minute.
We are required to do the research so you don’t have to about Canada’s reference in this minute. Justin Hammer’s prosecution of one Anthony Stark concludes. But not before we dive into a deleted scene with a certain agent that has yet to make his appearance in the movie. Fortunately, we get to welcome another key character of the movie with a new face: Colonel James “Rhodey” Rhodes and actor Don Cheadle. We continue to enjoy the presence of author Ryan Dalton.
The trial of Tony Stark continues with his case for keeping the Iron Man suit as his own. And then we get perhaps the most entertaining character in the entire film: Justin Hammer portrayed by Sam Rockwell. And we’re all lucky because he wasn’t meant to be in this movie at all. Author Ryan Dalton is back to chime in on some dialogue dissection. And that dialogue is rich with daddy issues.
