    Iron Man 2 Movie Description:
    With the world now aware that he is Iron Man, billionaire inventor Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.) faces pressure from all sides to share his technology with the military. He is reluctant to divulge the secrets of his armored suit, fearing the information will fall into the wrong hands. With Pepper Potts (Gwyneth Paltrow) and "Rhodey" Rhodes (Don Cheadle) by his side, Tony must forge new alliances and confront a powerful new enemy.
    Iron Man 2 is a 2010 American superhero film based on the Marvel Comics character Iron Man. Produced by Marvel Studios and distributed by Paramount Pictures, it is the sequel to Iron Man (2008) and the third film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). Directed by Jon Favreau and written by Justin Theroux, the film stars Robert Downey Jr. as Tony Stark / Iron Man alongside Gwyneth Paltrow, Don Cheadle, Scarlett Johansson, Sam Rockwell, Mickey Rourke, and Samuel L. Jackson. Six months after Iron Man, Tony Stark resists calls from the United States government to hand over the Iron Man technology, which is causing his declining health. Meanwhile, Russian scientist Ivan Vanko (Rourke) uses his own version of the technology to pursue a vendetta against the Stark family.
    Following the critical and commercial success of Iron Man in May 2008, Marvel Studios announced and immediately set to work on producing a sequel. In July, Theroux was hired to write the script and Favreau was signed to return as director. Downey, Paltrow, and Jackson were set to reprise their roles from Iron Man, while Cheadle was brought in to replace Terrence Howard in the role of James Rhodes. In the early months of 2009, Rourke (Vanko), Rockwell, and Johansson filled out the supporting cast. Filming took place from April to July 2009, mostly in California as in the first film, except for a key sequence in Monaco. Unlike its predecessor, which mixed digital and practical effects, the sequel primarily relied on computer-generated imagery to create the Iron Man suits.
    Iron Man 2 premiered at the El Capitan Theatre on April 26, 2010, and was released in the United States on May 7, as part of Phase One of the MCU. The film received generally positive reviews from critics with praise for its action sequences and performances, although they deemed it to be inferior to the first film. The sequel grossed over $623.9 million at the worldwide box office, making it the seventh-highest-grossing film of 2010. It received an Academy Award nomination for Best Visual Effects. A sequel, Iron Man 3, was released on May 3, 2013.

    It's not even necessary to "try" and defend it, because it makes total sense? Most metals in your body aren't good. A battery in your body would especially not be good. The arc reactor is basically a super powerful battery. Sure, it kinda came out of nowhere considering how the first one ended but honestly, it wouldn't have fit in the story. And to say Tony would've thought of that? Maybe, but he's not infallible. It is possible he didn't know, or heck, it's possible he did know but since without the arc reactor he literally dies a lot sooner, figured it was better than nothing.

    I felt the same way about the Tony is dying thing when this came out, but I think this is one that you end up looking back on a few movies later and it makes more sense from a character development perspective. This one mainly covers how he confronts a few of his own personal demons, but I think they ended up condensing it down because the studio wanted to really lean more into building up to the big crossover, and they made them go back and add a bunch of world-building that didn't totally fit the tone.

They had to come up with something new, because it would be pretty difficult and kind of degrading/insulting for Robert to play out literally what he went through in real life. So instead we get the “dying” storyline. I was ok with it when I saw it.
      I was also ok with him inventing a new element. This is a world with an element we don’t have in real life, plus a person who is far beyond any genius we’ve ever known. He used that element to create an offshoot that could be used to power the suit without degrading.

    It is implied that the element Tony rediscovered in this movie is vibranium. I think there's a book or something that they released that's a tie-in to the MCU that states that. Vibranium is a self-sustaining power source and that's why Tony never had any issues with his arc reactor from then onwards.
    This moment is also referenced in the Killmonger What If? episode where Tony used Killmonger's vibranium ring as a power source for his gundam.

    The way I heard it, Edgar Wright came to Marvel wanting to do Ant-man way back in the beginning but they felt the character would be too hard for audiences to "get" and they didnt want to start the MCU with that character. Really, they had no idea that the MCU was even about to be and that's why Iron Man became the face. He was their best & safest bet. When all was said and done, Edgar Wright parted ways due to creative differences and the Ant-man movie he wanted to make eventually was developed to become the tail end movie of Phase 2.

    Yes in the cartoon and in the comics it has been shown that Tony's Ark reactor caused Tony's body to become toxic, I think in one of the comics he became toxic due to the energy itself but in another comic it was actually due to the energy burning the core or something along those lines I don't remember but you can look it up and in the cartoon it wasn't specific but I think it had to do with the energy.
    Just like in real life when the core of a nuclear power plant becomes used it has to be replaced because those rods after depleted degrade into other elements that are pretty toxic and will stay that way for thousands of years.

    I feel that the original intent for Aos (Agents of Shield) was that it would be part of MCU canon, but it was a victim of being made by a different studio. Integration into the movies as a practice wasn't perfect (it's not perfect now), so the show spent a season jogging in place until Captain America: the Winter Soldier was released (If I understand correctly, elements from AoS would be used in the beginning of Winter Soldier). The show's adherence to canon would be looser after that, though there would be references to events like Thor's battle with the Dark Elves, the Sokovia Accords, and Thanos's arrival on Earth. It's still *basically* a good show and an interesting watch.

      It was that and being the victim of Ike Perlmutter, who ran the TV division at the time. Ike is the guy who slowed down production on every Marvel movie with women or black leads, because he's basically an old racist turd. Once they got him out of the way, we got Black Panther, Captain Marvel, Black Widow...but it took a _lot_ to get rid of him. The Inhumans thing was his obsession, too.

    At the time of Phase 1, Marvel was working with a director (Edgar Wright) for a few years on Ant-Man but designing the special effects was a slow process and the director kept taking breaks to work on other movies. Marvel decided within that time to have a connected universe and went behind the directors back and rewrote the script (to have a "Marvel" tone and fit with the other movies). This made the director angry and he left the project two months before filming was to start. They approached director Adam McKay to step in, but he was too busy with other projects to direct but offered to help rewrite the script with actor Paul Rudd (they added jokes to the script and the scene with Falcon). They quickly found another director and made Ant-Man. [Ant-Man and Wasp were original Avengers in the comic books and were wanted to be in the first Avengers line up, but Marvel really wanted to work with Edgar Wright so Black Widow and Hawkeye were substituted in their place).

    I really didn’t have a problem with the poisoning storyline because they never took out the shrapnel in his body in iron man 1. So that was always going to be a problem.
    I also didn’t realize so many people didn’t like this movie. It’s tony at the height of his selfishness and he has to fall and learn from his behavior. I always like that with iron man he goes from very selfish and egotistical to learning from his mistakes and trying to make it better but still failing at times which is human.

  • @Thoreaux

    It seriously bugs me the way everyone in Tony's life treated him in this movie. He came to each of them for help and they all saw his vulnerability and scorned him, looked down on him for needing help. And he took the message, "my problems are mine to solve alone, without anyone's help." And, in this movie, he did. And went on to all the other movies with that mentality. Ultron probably happened because of the way Tony's loved ones treated him when he was vulnerable in this one.
    Or not, I doubt the plotted characterization across films in that much detail, but it's interesting to me how well that analysis fits. And yeah, it still bugs me. Reaching out to everyone for help and all anyone wants to do is get some licks in on him while he seems like his guard's down.

    Iron Man 2 tried to do just a little too much all at once.

The downside to this is that Tony then doesn't really have anything to do for the entire movie.

    When he built the miniaturized arc reactor he was desperate to escape and in need for a power source to run the Iron Man prototype.
    Before that, he was walking around with a car battery that would run out in a week, causing the shrapnel in his heart to kill him.
    He doesn't have an alternative to wearing this until the end of the movie. His choices are quick death by shrapnel or slow death by blood toxicity and the slow one lets him live crazy for a few weeks or months.
