It’s the second part of our interview with Iron Man 2 star Clark Gregg. We hear about his love for two “golden” Marvel characters and find out about the interesting connection between Iron Man’s post credit scene and the fourth MCU film. He’s just as excited as we all are for the future of the MCU on Disney+ and we delve into how much Marvel (and Clark Gregg) loves the fans. And paging Mr. Favreau… he’s ready for his Star Wars gig (no matter what it is)!

Nope. That is NOT click bait. THIS HAPPENED! In the first part of our interview with Iron Man 2 star Clark Gregg, we discuss his upcoming role in ‘Being The Ricardos’, what he learned from directing and we get an inside look at some of the experiences of filming Iron Man 2. Plus, we get a definitive answer to the questions of whether West Wing Agent Mike Casper and S.H.I.E.L.D. Agent Phil Coulson are the same person! Are they??? Tune in to find out!

In minute 119 of the credits, we explain how we make this daily podcast as the current stewards of the Marvel Movie Minute. Spoiler: it involves copious amounts of research and planning. But it’s us so it’s not boring. Listen for the funny and all our dirty secrets. Don’t miss the shout outs to the venerable founders of MMM Andy Nelson and Pete Wright. Awwwwww. And there’s a preview of minute 120 you cannot miss!

Once we get past Garry Shandling’s closing priceless expression we start delving into some incredible work from the people behind the scenes. What do the movies Romy and Michele’s High School Reunion, Under Siege 2 and Twister have in common? You’re about to find out! There’s an oddly placed Forces of Nature story about stand-ins. But we finish with a great discussion on the contributions of Misters Lee, Heck, Lieber and Kirby. Bonus: We show Ryan Meinerding who’s the Marvel Studios Head of Visual Development some love!

Tony reveals his favor to Fury, and that’s Samuel L. Jackson’s picture wrap! Highway to Hell plays and Senator Stern is back! Is this where he joined Hydra? We break down Rhodey’s decorations. And we end on a press conference and a little prick.

We’re still in Tony’s debrief with Fury, and it sounds like they don’t actually want Tony? What’s interesting is this scene sets up all the growth Tony will make through Phase Three. But for now, he’s still a full blown narcissist.

Gwyneth Paltrow’s picture wrap with some terrible matte work. We dip into Meanwhile in the MCU to find out where everyone is. Turns out, this was a REALLY BUSY WEEK. Some call it Fury’s Big Week. Even Coulson’s busy in a One Shot. We even get Hulk footage in here. And there’s a map of the world with a LOT going on. Important stuff. It’s like Feige’s planning board.

Rhodey watches Tony and Pepper like a creeper. Regardless, they make up and seem good again. Rhodey shows his wit again and it’s the same Rhodey we’ll see through the rest of the films.

Pepper can’t stop staring at the flashing lights and needs to be saved. The drones all explode. How weird is it that Favreau’s childhood home is across the street from the filming location and became a location itself? Is this Pepper’s first flight? And Tony and Pepper are Tony and Pepper.
