Iron Man 2 release date 7th May 2010


Recommended Posts

Also, Theroux confirms that there is an "Easter egg" scene after the credits, featuring some kind of link to the upcoming Avengers team-up movie. But it won't be included in preview screenings, just added to the prints on opening day. [Collider]

The legendary DJ AM has a cameo in this movie, DJing at Tony Stark's birthday, and he filmed it just before his death. Here's the first picture of that scene. Much, much bigger version at the link. [L.A. Times]

I've collected the trailers, there isn't a shot of a kid in any of them. Perhaps one of the various tv spots but I don't recall seeing one. What was happening in the scene?

The kid is standing in front of one of the new Hammer suits, holding up his hand with a toy repulser glowing (he's wearing a toy helmet and arc reactor as well). Iron Man lands next to him, shoots the Hammer suit with his repulsor, tells the kid something like "good job", and then flies off. It is one of the ones that has aired on TV, and I can't remember if it was supposed to be a trailer or maybe some other related ad.

if its not opening day it won't be :( all previews dont get that scene it seems

If one is being anal about it, it is a paid preview on the 29th. Does that mean that if one wants to see that scene one has to fork out extra for the next day's ticket? What if it's a screening that starts on Thursday and finishes on Friday, which is the opening day in this country? It seems unfair to show people a "shortened" version in this case :cry:

by shortened you mean by 120 seconds? :p

they probably want everyone to be surprised on the day rather then people seeing the preview then tweeting it or blogging about it...that being said if you follow this thread you know what it is :p

I don't think I've seen it. At least not to my knowledge.

Hopefully I'll manage to catch it on my DVR for my little boy so he can watch it again. Maybe this one has only aired in the US, which would explain why fewer people on here have seen it.

Iron Man 2 is also going to be premiered in IMAX!!!! I'm pumped for this one to come out. Is the suit that Rhodey wears the War Machine suit? I've not really gotten into who is what as far as marvel heroes go, but his suit looks much more awesome than Tony Stark's.

^ pfft. Iron Man's suit is better and more agile! Although War Machine does pack some heavy ammunition. He wears 2 suits in the film, The Mach II and then the War Machine suit. Also it's playing in IMAX, but wasn't filmed with IMAX cameras. Still be sweet though.

As for the reviews, like Rappy said, I think a lot of the stuff people disliked were all the nods to the various characters in the universe. I love those parts specifically. One thing nearly all early reviews agree. The final act is awesome :D

Credit Scene Revealed!

Before I tell you what happens in the easter egg scene, I must spoil a small plot point from the actual film.

Two thirds of the way into Iron Man 2, SHIELD Agent Coulson (played again by Clark Gregg) gets orders to leave Tony Stark and is reassigned to a situation in New Mexico. That?s it. Not much more. In the film the moment goes by without it even meaning anything.

Cut to the credits.

After the credits conclude, we see a black car pushing up dirt as it zooms through the desert. We are even given a close-up of the New Mexico license plate of the car so that we know it is New Mexico. The license plate reads 8RE 2Z1. I?m not sure if there is an inside joke or easter egg in those numbers and letters. Probably not.

A man exists the vehicle, and it cuts to a wide show of a huge crater in the earth.

We see that the man is? not Tony Stark ? but Agent Coulson.

He looks down at the inside of the big hole, which has been revealed to contain cars and workers working on something.

Coulson picks up his cellphone and tells the person on the other end ?Sir, we?ve found it.?

Cut to a shot from inside the giant crater, and we push back to reveal the hammer of Thor sticking out of the ground.

    • Hello, Christian Maas' XVI32 is a nice (and very small) hex editor. Speaking of hex editors, many years ago a colleague and I who both worked at Tribal Voice managed to edit a copy of the company's PowWow instant messaging client to make it behave better now that all of its lookup servers and other server-side tech was gone.  The program didn't support NAT (RFC-3022 was introduced in January 2001, the same time Tribal Voice was shuttered), but it still worked okay if you manually set up port-forwarding on your router.  The server at http://powwow.jazy.net/ hosts a copy (usual warnings about downloading and running untrusted code from random internet servers apply). I occasionally use some tools like Funduc Software's Search and Replace and Application Mover when I need to make mass-edits to text-based files or move programs with a hard-coded installation directories, respectively.  When I need to figure out the exact LCD panel inside of a laptop, EnTech Taiwan's Monitor Asset Manager is my go-to tool for that purpose. JD Design's website (now hosted on github.io) has a number of interesting freeware and shareware utilities.  I used to use their TouchPro utility to set the file timestamps on software I was mastering to match its version number (e.g., version 3.00 of a program had all of its files dates set to 3:00AM, and so forth). Karenware has a number of interesting freeware utilities, too. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky  
    • I still use HexChat! Not really as ancient as the 1994 AutoCAD above my post, but I have never found anything better to replace it. Yes we still operate an IRC server https://www.neowin.net/irc/ 😛 
    • At work we still have a couple of people that use a version of AutoCAD LT purchased in 1994. This predates Windows 95 and works fine on versions of Windows up to XP. Its long since run in an locked down isolated XP VM, accessible via RDP. I did install LibreCAD for them, however they said it was just too different to get to grips with. In all fairness one of them is now 75 and the other is almost 60.

    • Anyway to download these versions without being on the Experimental builds?
