When Tony was in Court and was asked to make his tech public because it was dangerous for one man to have it, he pulled out this super cool smartphone that was literally a piece of glass with all the info displayed on it.

' On your belly, it looks like, a man!" I like that part. That pilot couldnt believe what he was seeing. You heard literal fright in his voice to see a man, holding on to the belly of a F22, in flight, at high altitude.
@@bread4228 Absurd. The military can actually build raptors as much as enough without a fund gap. It's just that they allocate their fund to other projects. And let me remind you that Tony himself has his own fabrication tech, he even sponsored SHIELD and he also designed the 2nd generation Tri-carriers. Tony can design fighter jets that can beat raptors if he wants to. He builds his own suits that can travel hypersonic, reach above high altitude, and can even travel outer space compared to high-end fighter jets. And let me remind you about Nanotech. Can the military create those ones I mentioned??
That's why Tony is such a badass that even Thanos was impressed with him. Well, in the comics, Tony is even way more badass. He built so many badass suits aside from the Hulk-Buster and the Nano-Tech suit. He built a suit from biologically engineered symbiotes. He built a buster suit to fight Phoenix. He built the god-killer suit to fight the Celestials. His god-killer suit is so huge that it required 8 nuclear reactors to power it.
@James Wickham Ehhhh between a great pilot and one who literally fights to defend the universe daily, I wouldn't exactly say it's an even match for Tony. Though a fight between the 2 would definitely last a little longer than here, it still goes to Tony's favor.
@@MrSlicer2424 I knew this would come up. No, I'm not saying Iron Man didn't have its fans, BUT he had nowhere near the popularity after the movie came out. Do you disagree?
@@mspionage1743 Ironman was a B tier in terms of popularity known enough but not a franchise seller, there was a reason marvel sold the rights for Fantastic 4, Spiderman and Hulk but not Ironman
@@ardrej Well I am old and recall when Ironman first came out in comics. He was very popular in those golden days of comics. He of course exploded once the movie came out but he was always a big deal in the universe to comic fans from the early 80s.
I'm so sick of seeing the US army pop up in action movies (looking at you transformers), it was so relieving to not have to care for them in infinity war, now that you mention it.
@@SYMvermillionSYMcrimson forget US army, any government's army is a big help to the avengers much less just he US army. Honestly, if all of earth's armies joined hands, they could have probably held back the chitary to some degree while the avengers could have dealt with the serious problems like closing the worm hole or killing the huge worm things
@@Heavenly-Drakian there are actually scenes in 2012 Avenger where the US army arrive and fight back the alien, it had been cut. You can search for Avenger deleted scene here on youtube.
Tony: "Training exercise, isn't that the usual BS?" Rhodes: "No, no no. It's not that simple." Next scene: "An unfortunate training exercise..." That's great writing.
I used to think that at 0:47, the suit's engines are intermittent due to a rocket explosion. But only now I realized that this is the work of the stabilization system, which brings Iron Man out of a tailspin. The attention of Jon Favreau and the special effects specialists to the little things is amazing.
Yo good eye! I never noticed that so basically it’s a realistic things that his suit did that to stabilize…instead of him being able to just zip around like Superman ..makes sense
Yeap, probably got the inspiration from the car ESP system which rapidly brakes individual wheels separately to stabilize the car. It looks like the same concept, very realistic.
@@Graeito Well firstly, they said they had visual on the target AFTER the guy punched out, so they had to have seen Iron man approach the ejection vehicle. Second they said "good chute" if that was the guy in the chair with good comms then he couldve said also "he just punched my chute" or if the guy in the plane had a visual he had to have seen IM approach the other pilot. Either way its obvious he helped save him.
The nanosuit tech obviously gave Tony the power boost to go toe to toe with Thanos, but its the more mechanically grounded suits in the earlier movies that still stick with me to this day as my favorites to watch. There's so many details that make them feel real and awesome compared to the nanotech that just feels more like techno magic.
The Nano suit looks fake as hell. I hate the constantly appearing and disappearing helmet. It felt fake. But the first IronMan movie still looked real today.
The last one that really hit home for me was the one used in the final battle of Avengers 1. (Mk7?). After that too many magic transforming panels and the suits felt like they lost any sense of weight.
That's a rare and funny case, before the movie iron man was like a nobody in the comics and no one liked him but here we get a movie that the adaptation is better than the comics
This movie is timeless. As much fun as it was seeing Tony and his suit advance throughout the course of the MCU, I always find so much joy in this scene. It does such a great job of conveying what an incredible and badass piece of equipment Tony has bestowed himself.
I was thinking about why this movie stands out so much more than newer ones like Infinity War or Endgame (we don't talk anything past that) and you chose the exact word I was missing: timeless.
@@NirateGoel maybe it was a play on words... Like a training exercise for Tony that was unfortunate for the military.. I dunno... I can't see them leaving in a misread line like that, but then the 1st Iron Man movie was made a little more fast and loose. Or maybe that's why Dan Cheadle is War Machine.
Dude I wished the MCU was still like this, I’m sure a lot of people love it how it is now and that’s fine, but I loved Ironman taking down something that felt real, him against the terrorists felt so amazingly realistic. All the effects for this movie feel great too. I just don’t feel the same way I do about this movie with Endgame or infinity war. It doesn’t feel human.
How Tony handles these ever changing G forces throughout this series is beyond me. All I could think about is how his chest felt when he deployed the flaps.
the lore explanation is that the suit has inertia dampeners on a Star Trek-esque level, which I guess also explains how he can get hit by a tank shell and survive but it is kind of dumb how random it seems to work
@@JarmamStuff I was about to mention how it didn't help Rhodey before I remembered his suit was basically depowered then Oh wait, Tony landing in the Mk1.
we don't really know how much speed he loses, but anyhow, the airbrake part is only a linear acceleration (well, deceleration but the G forces problem remains), and you can take linear accelerations a lot better than when you're changing directions. Pilots (we'll say Tony's body can withstand as much as they can) can take 10 Gs for brief amounts of time. 10 Gs of linear acceleration is 10 *9.81 m/s² = 98,1 m/s². that's a deceleration of about 350 km/h in one second. considering how close he was to the pursuing planes, that kinda deceleration would probably see him drop behind them quickly sure, it's probably exaggerated and it would feel really unpleasant, but this is probably not the most unrealistic bit he's done with the suit... and about the landing with the Mk1, i guess he landed in sand? maybe that's enough?😂
thats on my short list of all the bodily harm Tony seems to miraculously avoid.while wearing that thing despite being hit with heavy artillery. oh and no clue how he can breathe at that altitude, apparently the suit is pressurized and has its own air supply
@@stargazer7644 yes that's how fictions works. In reality, moving at super sonic speeds would cause the blood in your body to drop from your head to your feet, basically causing you to pass out. Pilots counteract this by wearing straps around their legs to keep the blood from falling to their feet.
@@darkelysium2187 Moving at supersonic speeds doesn't do that, pulling G's does that. Passengers on the Concorde didn't have to wear G suits. But Tony's suit didn't have a built in G suit, it had inertial damping.
I think the movie said it was a legal no fly zone or something. they had to shoot it down since Tony wasnt responding, and they didn't know what it was
Even though I like Iron Man's armor improvements in the later movies, this one was where you truly marvelled at the idea of a man in a suit doing things like this. It feels closer to our reality, which gave it more of a sense of awe. Iron Man himself was enough to behold in this movie. Crazy to think about now that we're so used to seeing him fighting aliens and killer robots along side his superpowered pals.
It's science fiction, even this suit, yeah, but at the very least the fiction has enough motes of believability for us to suspend our disbelief, like instead of looking at a metal suit fucking appearing out of nowhere, we see this one meticulously get put on, you see the mechnical plates shift when something that honestly shouldn't be there is there. It's small shit like that which makes us think this suit is more believable. Hell MK1 is a suit that probably can't be made as easily or as portable in real life as it is shown in this movie, but they made it look bulky, clunky, added whirring sounds to tell the audience that it is a massive piece of robotic machinery, which makes for a more believable suit of powered armour. You could see HackSmith build the MK. 1 Suit, and they've actually built parts of the MK3.
Amazing how Tony's armor could barely get a pair of F-22's off his back. Now his armor can hold off a fundamental aspect of existence and house 6 of them. Edit: It never ceases to amaze me how far off topic people get with a comment, and sometimes missed the point of the original comment entirely. Reminds me of the telephone game.
Yeah, but at the same time he also cant overwhelm captain america at hand-to-hand. Captain america, which wasn't even bulletproof. 1 F-22 can kill 1000 captain americas.
I'm creating an Iron Man like game, just see the flying system, please share it, suscribe and click the bell so as to be notified when the demo will be out :D ua-cam.com/video/RYWWcyrxvis/v-deo.html
Crazy to think this is where it all started. I remember watching this in theaters freshman year of high school and being completely blown away. If only I knew what was to come
Rhodey's face when Tony yells "IT'S ME!" is so perfect. Like "WTF DO I DO? WTF DO I SAY!? I'VE BEEN SAYING MY ENTIRE LIFE THAT TONY IS GONNA GET ME FIRED, AND THIS IS IT!!"
...while calling the whole fictional exercise unfortunate. That's a nicely passive-aggressive way of saying, "Look, this is the official story and it sucks, but I have to say something. I regret saying it as much as you regret having to listen to it."
I bet Terrence Howard wishes every day he hadn't asked for too much money for Iron Man 2... Edit: Since I made this comment, I've learned that Terrence Howard's recast wasn't be cause he "asked for too much money." It's a bit more complicated than that. He took a pay cut for the first movie and they wanted to cut his pay for Iron Man 2 as well, despite the massive success of Iron Man. Former Marvel CEO Perlmutter decided it was cheaper to just recast Rhodes, because "all black people look the same." I guess Don Cheadle and Terrance Howard are nearly indistinguishable if your head is that far up your ass.
@@braziliancivilian8244 Agreed. Word is that RDJ started getting paid a ton of money (deservedly) after Iron Man took off. Terrence Howard was upset that RDJ didn't stand up for him getting a raise as well. But Rhodey was a side character in this movie, easily replaceable, whereas in Iron Man 2, he'd get a lot more screentime and leverage for a big raise.
IIRC it wasn't him asking for more money. He had signed a contract for a few films before he started Iron Man that had his salary already laid out. But by the time 2 came around his salary was much lower than what the contract promised, with the money supposedly going to RDJ.
Kinda appreciate this scene now after being in the Air Force for a few years. A lot of things were pretty spot on! The pilot's MBU 12p mask and the HGU 55p helmet, even the egress!
@@wintersolider6415 Bit late, but let me point something out. He was on the belly of one. A few shots up before doing the same thing with the other one.
Rhodey could have just cited a "mechanical malfunction" as the cause for the "accident" and nobody would have batted an eye. F-22's may be top-tier machines at this point in time, but even the best quality of equipment or machinery can malfunction or break unexpectedly.
@@gamester512 Exactly. Airplanes are fragile, high-maintenance machines, and the tiniest flaw in their construction or the smallest oversight during maintenance or takeoff prep can easily lead to disaster.
Rhodey: what am I supposed to tell the press? Tony: training excercises isn't that the usual bs? Rhodey: it's not that simple Rhodey a moment later: an unfortunate training excercise- Lmfao I'm dead
He could not, because that would be unreasonable. What if that was not Tony and some other dangerous thing. Tony tries to get the information a secret so he could not tell the Major what to do unless it's a valid reason and if the situation headed South, he would have lost his rank.
regardless of rank, he can't override established operational protocol without a damn good reason. In addition, he wasn't in command of the operation, so that would have been highly irregular.
rhodey was in charge of the operation, since he tells tony he cant send civilian equipment into "my" (rhodeys) active warzone. saying that it was his warzone means that he has jurisdiction and command over all operations taking place in the area, which means he calls the shots.
lordlossize GG no it doesn't mean that, I can speak from being in the Army, Artillery to be precise, on the guns if an officer came up and started telling them what to do without using the proper chain of command or having an official reason to do it, then he would rightly get told to fuck off by the NCO's in command of the guns, and the officer would be the one in the shit, since it's their workspace alone, and right then and there they are god as far as authority is concerned. You can't just undermine someone's command of a situation if they're the ones managing it regardless of your rank
@@JR72_ in this late 2000s superhero film, they not gonna let that realism thrilling event happens here or else it'll potentially made some of their connoisseurs at that time dissatisfied and got aggro like hell.
@@JR72_ Not at that speed. The engine does not suck in any air that is behind the inlet when the plane is moving faster than the speed the air could get drawn in. On the flip side there's no way he'd have been alive after that first missile since flares almost never work at that range and the suite's exhaust must be insanely hot to glow bright orange like that.
@@youuuuuuuuuuutube there are some enormous one as well, for example. an mach 3 capable cold-war era icon mig-25 jet with a fuselage length of 24 meters, longer and larger than any theropods that ever existed on our planet.
I love the part when ironman comes to save the pilot to pull his parachute, everything the music and tension with everyone in their seats is incredible
All of the things Tony added later on to make this child's play. With his Infinity War suit, he could have easily got away with his increased speed. In Iron Man 3 he could magnetically charge his hands so he never would have been rolled off. Thankfully Mark 2 was already super durable so it could tank the machine gun fire (and a freaking literal TANK shot earlier on.) It's fun to think how previous scenarios encouraged him to upgrade the suit in different ways. And yeah, I know he likely added the booster speed because he wasn't fast enough to catch War Machine in Civil War but here it would have been damn useful too.
He doesn't need a booster in this just better choices, he can change speed, altitude, and direction far better then them, hes got radar detection, grabbing onto the wing was the dumbest thing he could have done.
@@thememeguy2195 the civil war suit was designed to be at the limits of compactness, it borders on nanotech in how tony can fold it, but unlike the nanotech suits, it has far too many moving parts/points of weakness to be as durable as his old solid-piece armours which is why cap and bucky could break it. So it was nerfed in a way, but looking back it’s a nice transition to his later, uber-powerful suits that develop on the technology into the Thanos-hurting kind
@@thememeguy2195 He culd have just use that laser from IM2 and kill Steve and Bucky. But he was holding back. So yeah even mark 3 and 4 suits could whoop Cap's ass.
aye, shoutout to rhodey for immediately catching on and playing along with tony in this scene and covering the things that were out of his control in and out of that situation. always satisfying when a hero is in a tight situation and their subordinates can actually understand and help them out in their own hour of need.
I think what really holds up so well is the camera work. The excellent shots of the "mounted view" makes it feel grounded like when it's mounted on the F-22's or on Iron Man when he's diving after the pilot who ejected. Also the shots with Tony being hit and falling, as well the pilot who ejected and falling, the camera looks like someone who's skydiving and couldn't keep a solid focus on both of them because of the speeds with them coming in and out of the picture. Lastly a lot of the exterior shots have a lot of natural movement from them, like they were also in a jet or helicopter and holding a camera to record the footage, even though it's all CGI. It's the 'grounded in realism' camera work which makes it feel so real life.
Lt. Col Rhodes was called in as a consultant. He may outrank that major on paper but the major was in command of those planes, not Rhodey. In the military it's called "positional authority".
The major should have also stomped a mud hole in Rhodes ass for bringing in an unauthorized piece of hardware into his classified command center. The cell phone. A modified two way radio with storage capacity and a camera. That doesn't scream spy equipment in that environment.
I love that the making of this movie and the birth of the MCU was really a story of redemption. For both RDJ, as for Jon Favreau, as for Marvel, as for Iron Man
My dad and a couple of his friends had midnight opening tickets, luckily (or unluckily for his friend) had to bail at the last second. I was going to watch Iron Man over the weekend, since I had school the next day, but seeing the midnight debut was worth it.
"Tony what do I tell the press" T: "Just tell them it was a training exercise, isnt that the usual bs?" "Its not that simple" " *An unfortunate training exercise involving an f22 raptor* "
lul, why i must triggered? Marvel copycat of DC (70% to 80% heroes from DC), more than 30 years marvel cant do anything good from cinematic movie. I just saying the fact. Almost every marvel "fans" just watching for Avengers Prime, we'll see what happen after infinity war :)
as much as i like don cheadle and his work, i thought Terrence Howard was the better fit for Rhodes and had good chemistry with Downey. i thought Cheadle was kind of forced chemistry in IM2, but came along a little better in the third one.
Had Terrence Howard been more patience about the payments Maybe he would still be in it and with more money Don Cheadle could either join as a different Marvel character or a Wakandan
Christian Villamil he didn't ask for anything, he signed up for a three-movie contract. After the first movie marvel said we will give you 1/8 of what we agreed on the contract because we think movie will be successful regardless of you. He called RDJ thinking he would back him up, RDJ didn't pick up the phone for three months.
I remember watching this back in 2008 as my graduation gift and I'll never forget that day when I secretly smiling at the back of my seat for seeing this awesome movie ~
"You see it started by me and my buddy trying to shoot him out of the air with machine guns and missiles, which caused him to break my wing on accident. Then when I was falling the equipment the military made failed and if Tony Stark wasn't a hero and didn't unlock the parachute I wouldn't be here" XD
@@goldenapplesaga5446plus he was also a bit confused on what exactly to tell the other guy, tony pretty much went from saying he had nothing to do with what's happening to "never mind it is me, I'm in the suit!"
Terrence Howard really should have stayed as Rhodey, he really nailed that role. He's got charisma, the look (no offence Don Cheadle) and old-friend-from-high-school chemistry with RDJ. It's just too bad it didn't work out with him and Marvel Studios.
@@jasonhenry8067 There's a thing called "positional authority" in the U.S. military. This major is probably the CO of the command that's engaging Tony in this scene, which is why he can safely ignore Rhodey's comments - because in that room, at that point, Rhodey has no direct authority over that operation, nor the major.
My bad, he's clearly wearing the Lt. Col insignia. To be fair they are very similar. And to answer the original question; I'd imagine that the major received a rocket right up his arse from Rhodey after the mission was concluded.
Yup, I always say that, but you got to give some credit to Don Cheadle in Endgame, he did a good job there. But yeah, I also prefer Terrence and also his chemistry on screen with RDJ
2008 was the best summer for me. It was the greatest summer for movies. I remember when I saw this in an advanced screening in the Paramount Pictures lot theatre.

It was also before the summer after my freshman year in high school and I spent it with family in Mexico. I had the best time. Everytime I think of this movie I think about the time I was introduced to the greatest cinematic universe and the greatest summer. Memories like this never die

And let me remind you that Tony himself has his own fabrication tech, he even sponsored SHIELD and he also designed the 2nd generation Tri-carriers. Tony can design fighter jets that can beat raptors if he wants to. He builds his own suits that can travel hypersonic, reach above high altitude, and can even travel outer space compared to high-end fighter jets. And let me remind you about Nanotech. Can the military create those ones I mentioned??

@@bread4228 Nah. He'd fab one himself in his garage in a weekend.
That's why Tony is such a badass that even Thanos was impressed with him. Well, in the comics, Tony is even way more badass. He built so many badass suits aside from the Hulk-Buster and the Nano-Tech suit. He built a suit from biologically engineered symbiotes. He built a buster suit to fight Phoenix. He built the god-killer suit to fight the Celestials. His god-killer suit is so huge that it required 8 nuclear reactors to power it.
He'll be fine as long as Maverick isn't flying the F-22
@James Wickham He wont able to do that if it happens DUMBASS
@James Wickham Ehhhh between a great pilot and one who literally fights to defend the universe daily, I wouldn't exactly say it's an even match for Tony. Though a fight between the 2 would definitely last a little longer than here, it still goes to Tony's favor.

I used to think that at 0:47, the suit's engines are intermittent due to a rocket explosion. But only now I realized that this is the work of the stabilization system, which brings Iron Man out of a tailspin.
The attention of Jon Favreau and the special effects specialists to the little things is amazing.
Yo good eye! I never noticed that so basically it’s a realistic things that his suit did that to stabilize…instead of him being able to just zip around like Superman ..makes sense

Notice that the plane pulls off after Tony pulls the chute. They definitely saw.
The nanosuit tech obviously gave Tony the power boost to go toe to toe with Thanos, but its the more mechanically grounded suits in the earlier movies that still stick with me to this day as my favorites to watch. There's so many details that make them feel real and awesome compared to the nanotech that just feels more like techno magic.
The Nano suit looks fake as hell. I hate the constantly appearing and disappearing helmet. It felt fake. But the first IronMan movie still looked real today.
The last one that really hit home for me was the one used in the final battle of Avengers 1. (Mk7?). After that too many magic transforming panels and the suits felt like they lost any sense of weight.

This movie is timeless. As much fun as it was seeing Tony and his suit advance throughout the course of the MCU, I always find so much joy in this scene. It does such a great job of conveying what an incredible and badass piece of equipment Tony has bestowed himself.
I was thinking about why this movie stands out so much more than newer ones like Infinity War or Endgame (we don't talk anything past that) and you chose the exact word I was missing: timeless.
1:02 I can’t imagine how many G-forces Stark felt doing this maneuver.
Ikr. It feels like he's immune to it
Right there’s like no technology I can think of that could make you immune to gforces, maybe just stick to drones?
lol Yeah realistically your brain would be coming out your eye sockets if you went from supersonic to 0 that fast.
He should have died lol
It looks like a red-out too, a rapid rise of blood pressure in the head. That’s about a billion billion times more dangerous than a black-out.
You know, with his $$$, Tony could probably pay for a new F-22 without missing it.

It works the same way. The exercise was unfortunate.
More accurate since it was Tony's training exercise that was the issue.
Dude I wished the MCU was still like this, I’m sure a lot of people love it how it is now and that’s fine, but I loved Ironman taking down something that felt real, him against the terrorists felt so amazingly realistic.

There is a reason you don't have over 20 sequels. Its just an endless escalation until its unrecognizable.
How Tony handles these ever changing G forces throughout this series is beyond me. All I could think about is how his chest felt when he deployed the flaps.
the lore explanation is that the suit has inertia dampeners on a Star Trek-esque level, which I guess also explains how he can get hit by a tank shell and survive
but it is kind of dumb how random it seems to work
@@JarmamStuff comic book logic
@@JarmamStuff I was about to mention how it didn't help Rhodey before I remembered his suit was basically depowered then
Oh wait, Tony landing in the Mk1.
That's one of the biggest problems we have that is stopping us from building iron man suits for ourselves
we don't really know how much speed he loses, but anyhow, the airbrake part is only a linear acceleration (well, deceleration but the G forces problem remains), and you can take linear accelerations a lot better than when you're changing directions.
Pilots (we'll say Tony's body can withstand as much as they can) can take 10 Gs for brief amounts of time. 10 Gs of linear acceleration is 10 *9.81 m/s² = 98,1 m/s². that's a deceleration of about 350 km/h in one second. considering how close he was to the pursuing planes, that kinda deceleration would probably see him drop behind them quickly
sure, it's probably exaggerated and it would feel really unpleasant, but this is probably not the most unrealistic bit he's done with the suit...
and about the landing with the Mk1, i guess he landed in sand? maybe that's enough?😂
amount of G's Tony is pulling without literally anything happening is insane.
thats on my short list of all the bodily harm Tony seems to miraculously avoid.while wearing that thing despite being hit with heavy artillery. oh and no clue how he can breathe at that altitude, apparently the suit is pressurized and has its own air supply
@@spg1794 I mean... Considering he flew into fucking orbit I'd consider it to have it's own air
The suit has technology that counteracts inertia.
@@stargazer7644 yes that's how fictions works. In reality, moving at super sonic speeds would cause the blood in your body to drop from your head to your feet, basically causing you to pass out. Pilots counteract this by wearing straps around their legs to keep the blood from falling to their feet.
@@darkelysium2187 Moving at supersonic speeds doesn't do that, pulling G's does that. Passengers on the Concorde didn't have to wear G suits. But Tony's suit didn't have a built in G suit, it had inertial damping.
tony - blows an entire weapons depo and kills bad guys.
Air force - UnKnOwN bOgy ShOoT iT!!!!
At mission control center they don't understand, why didn't Rhodey tell them that is was Tony?
I think the movie said it was a legal no fly zone or something. they had to shoot it down since Tony wasnt responding, and they didn't know what it was
Proxy wars
thats standard procedure Tony was flying in america Air space and They dont know what it is Of course There gonna fucking shoot it lol.
So basically, the Air Force, the American Air Force.
Even though I like Iron Man's armor improvements in the later movies, this one was where you truly marvelled at the idea of a man in a suit doing things like this. It feels closer to our reality, which gave it more of a sense of awe. Iron Man himself was enough to behold in this movie. Crazy to think about now that we're so used to seeing him fighting aliens and killer robots along side his superpowered pals.
It's science fiction, even this suit, yeah, but at the very least the fiction has enough motes of believability for us to suspend our disbelief, like instead of looking at a metal suit fucking appearing out of nowhere, we see this one meticulously get put on, you see the mechnical plates shift when something that honestly shouldn't be there is there. It's small shit like that which makes us think this suit is more believable.
Hell MK1 is a suit that probably can't be made as easily or as portable in real life as it is shown in this movie, but they made it look bulky, clunky, added whirring sounds to tell the audience that it is a massive piece of robotic machinery, which makes for a more believable suit of powered armour. You could see HackSmith build the MK. 1 Suit, and they've actually built parts of the MK3.
No aliens. No fancy nano armor. Just pure metal and menace. This is IRON man.
It's a damn shame Terrence Howard didn't work out. He was a great Rhodie.

I bet Terrence Howard wishes every day he hadn't asked for too much money for Iron Man 2...
Edit: Since I made this comment, I've learned that Terrence Howard's recast wasn't be cause he "asked for too much money." It's a bit more complicated than that. He took a pay cut for the first movie and they wanted to cut his pay for Iron Man 2 as well, despite the massive success of Iron Man. Former Marvel CEO Perlmutter decided it was cheaper to just recast Rhodes, because "all black people look the same." I guess Don Cheadle and Terrance Howard are nearly indistinguishable if your head is that far up your ass.
Brainscrawler he acts well and probably deserved it over the cheap replacement.
Yea , his acting as Rhode was very good.
he should have asked for a little bit more money, then after iron man 2 he could ask for a bit more.
@@braziliancivilian8244 Agreed. Word is that RDJ started getting paid a ton of money (deservedly) after Iron Man took off. Terrence Howard was upset that RDJ didn't stand up for him getting a raise as well. But Rhodey was a side character in this movie, easily replaceable, whereas in Iron Man 2, he'd get a lot more screentime and leverage for a big raise.
IIRC it wasn't him asking for more money. He had signed a contract for a few films before he started Iron Man that had his salary already laid out. But by the time 2 came around his salary was much lower than what the contract promised, with the money supposedly going to RDJ.
Kinda appreciate this scene now after being in the Air Force for a few years. A lot of things were pretty spot on! The pilot's MBU 12p mask and the HGU 55p helmet, even the egress!

An unfortunate training exercise involving an F-22 raptor occurred yesterday, uhm...

what
Rhodey could have just cited a "mechanical malfunction" as the cause for the "accident" and nobody would have batted an eye. F-22's may be top-tier machines at this point in time, but even the best quality of equipment or machinery can malfunction or break unexpectedly.
thats how it works today. the goverment is the best bullshit maker.

Hahahaha
Rhodes is a Lieutenant Colonel, which is one rank above Major. Rhodes could have ordered him to call of the Raptor.
Plot says no.
He could not, because that would be unreasonable. What if that was not Tony and some other dangerous thing. Tony tries to get the information a secret so he could not tell the Major what to do unless it's a valid reason and if the situation headed South, he would have lost his rank.
regardless of rank, he can't override established operational protocol without a damn good reason. In addition, he wasn't in command of the operation, so that would have been highly irregular.
rhodey was in charge of the operation, since he tells tony he cant send civilian equipment into "my" (rhodeys) active warzone. saying that it was his warzone means that he has jurisdiction and command over all operations taking place in the area, which means he calls the shots.
lordlossize GG no it doesn't mean that, I can speak from being in the Army, Artillery to be precise, on the guns if an officer came up and started telling them what to do without using the proper chain of command or having an official reason to do it, then he would rightly get told to fuck off by the NCO's in command of the guns, and the officer would be the one in the shit, since it's their workspace alone, and right then and there they are god as far as authority is concerned. You can't just undermine someone's command of a situation if they're the ones managing it regardless of your rank

On the flip side there's no way he'd have been alive after that first missile since flares almost never work at that range and the suite's exhaust must be insanely hot to glow bright orange like that.

I love the part when ironman comes to save the pilot to pull his parachute, everything the music and tension with everyone in their seats is incredible
Yeah
AND... the mechanical sound of his arm, pulling the parachute.
All of the things Tony added later on to make this child's play. With his Infinity War suit, he could have easily got away with his increased speed. In Iron Man 3 he could magnetically charge his hands so he never would have been rolled off. Thankfully Mark 2 was already super durable so it could tank the machine gun fire (and a freaking literal TANK shot earlier on.) It's fun to think how previous scenarios encouraged him to upgrade the suit in different ways. And yeah, I know he likely added the booster speed because he wasn't fast enough to catch War Machine in Civil War but here it would have been damn useful too.
Just gonna say it. The one hit with a tank shot and that fought the terrorist, was mark three, he left mark two unpainted.
He's wearing the mark III.
@@tdap1802 Then an upgraded suit in Ironman 3 gets broken to pieces by a truck hit which is so lame to be honest.
Because tony learns from his mistakes
He doesn't need a booster in this just better choices, he can change speed, altitude, and direction far better then them, hes got radar detection, grabbing onto the wing was the dumbest thing he could have done.

1:19 Anyone noticed that Rhodey's ringtone for Tony is the Iron Man theme from the 60s cartoon, which was also used when we meet Tony in Las Vegas?
I knew I've heard that melody before but, for the life of me could not place it. Thanks.
aye, shoutout to rhodey for immediately catching on and playing along with tony in this scene and covering the things that were out of his control in and out of that situation. always satisfying when a hero is in a tight situation and their subordinates can actually understand and help them out in their own hour of need.
I think what really holds up so well is the camera work. The excellent shots of the "mounted view" makes it feel grounded like when it's mounted on the F-22's or on Iron Man when he's diving after the pilot who ejected. Also the shots with Tony being hit and falling, as well the pilot who ejected and falling, the camera looks like someone who's skydiving and couldn't keep a solid focus on both of them because of the speeds with them coming in and out of the picture. Lastly a lot of the exterior shots have a lot of natural movement from them, like they were also in a jet or helicopter and holding a camera to record the footage, even though it's all CGI. It's the 'grounded in realism' camera work which makes it feel so real life.
You will never know why I got so many likes...😏
except rhodes didnt give him an order, he merely made a suggestion.
I was literally SCREAMING that at the screen during this scene!
True, and the Major was looking and talking to Rhodes as if he outranked him.
Lt. Col Rhodes was called in as a consultant. He may outrank that major on paper but the major was in command of those planes, not Rhodey. In the military it's called "positional authority".
The major should have also stomped a mud hole in Rhodes ass for bringing in an unauthorized piece of hardware into his classified command center. The cell phone. A modified two way radio with storage capacity and a camera. That doesn't scream spy equipment in that environment.

Maybe he would still be in it and with more money
Don Cheadle could either join as a different Marvel character or a Wakandan
Terrence Howard screwed it when he asked a better payment than RDJ. But i admit Don Cheadle also fits the character very well.
Christian Villamil he didn't ask for anything, he signed up for a three-movie contract. After the first movie marvel said we will give you 1/8 of what we agreed on the contract because we think movie will be successful regardless of you. He called RDJ thinking he would back him up, RDJ didn't pick up the phone for three months.
@@ibrahimy7307 Is that according to Terence? Because literally everybody else tells a different story.
ibrahim y how can they give him less money than what was agreed to in a contract. He should sue them
The first two Iron Man movies really changed the Super Hero movie genre in a such an amazing way and they can be rewatched any number of times
While the recent titles can't be watched even once.
Honestly, Terrence Howard's reaction to Tony saying it's a suit, he's in, was a perfect reaction. Wish he could've stayed on as Rhodes.
I remember watching this back in 2008 as my graduation gift and I'll never forget that day when I secretly smiling at the back of my seat for seeing this awesome movie ~
Why do you need to do it secretly
@@alexpowers5117 idk maybe it's embarrassing for me at the time since I was six years old when I watched it
@@crisdeanjamesmontillano1935 You graduated at 6 years old?
@@NoName-eq9md in Nursery, yes.
@@crisdeanjamesmontillano1935 bro say it clearly...I almost felt like you were some 200+ iq guy💀
Imagine how this soldier gonna tell to his grandsons how Ironman saved him.
@@Mike-vo2rp Airforce*
When Tony revealed his identity to the public, this guy can even send him a thank you card
"You see it started by me and my buddy trying to shoot him out of the air with machine guns and missiles, which caused him to break my wing on accident. Then when I was falling the equipment the military made failed and if Tony Stark wasn't a hero and didn't unlock the parachute I wouldn't be here" XD
1:40 can someone explain why Rhodey doesnt explain whats happening and not get his friend killed?
Tony tried to hide the fact that he was in the suit, Rhodey didn’t want to go against him
@@Skulk_system got it. Thank you!
@@goldenapplesaga5446plus he was also a bit confused on what exactly to tell the other guy, tony pretty much went from saying he had nothing to do with what's happening to "never mind it is me, I'm in the suit!"
8 year old me is freaking out rn
So you are 8 years old?
So you’re telling me I’m the 4th like on a comment from a verified youtuber left 6 days ago? That’s cool ig
@@andy-gamer He was probably 8 in 2008.
@@winchesterchua3311 so he was born in 2000 meaning he’s 21 years old but he may have not watched this in 2008
So ur childhood 8 yo is freaking out RIGHT NOW???
“Hey rhodey, did You get darker?”
And skinnier
@@suminaoshinjo6545 don Cheadle is still muscular
i just love how calm jarvis is saying "inbound missile"
Lmao but imagine Jarvis actually used expression while talking. He’s be like “Watch out bro incoming missile watch out sir WATCH OUT”
@@Supershlickity dude thats so funny
Priceless
"Whiplash, what is it?"
"I got no idea."
Specialists: "It was probably a weather balloon."
Imagine your first ever air to air combat against two F22 raptors and you out fly them !!!!!
Only Iron man can do it !!!!

Crazy how he had to shout what he wanted the suit to do, now it reads his mind

And now it can handle the power of the infinity stones just enough for him to perform a snap and save the entire universe

Terrence Howard really should have stayed as Rhodey, he really nailed that role. He's got charisma, the look (no offence Don Cheadle) and old-friend-from-high-school chemistry with RDJ. It's just too bad it didn't work out with him and Marvel Studios.
Lol nobody is going to talk about his contact name being “the strarkster”😂😂
"tony you do not mess your toys in my warzo--"
"no IT'S ME IM IN THE TOY"
rhodes: 😳
I miss Terence Howard's Rhodey
Mita Widyastuti why is it Don Cheadle now
Koenigsegg Fanboy Payment issues
Yea, the present Rhodey looks too frail and uninterested at times. Would love to see Terence playing with Warhammer
Francis Ralte I understand that now.
Mita Widyastuti me too
He was the best rhodey
Quality>Quantity
This is why the old movies are way better than todays, they were made with passion.
That a pure heart tony stark. Proof that Tony stark has a heart
The most unbelievable thing about this whole scene is a Major talking to a Lt.Col like that…
If the LT is outside of the chain of command in this situation then doesn’t the Major technically outrank the LT?
@@jasonhenry8067 sorta yeah. All just depends on the field
@@jasonhenry8067 There's a thing called "positional authority" in the U.S. military. This major is probably the CO of the command that's engaging Tony in this scene, which is why he can safely ignore Rhodey's comments - because in that room, at that point, Rhodey has no direct authority over that operation, nor the major.
I don't think Rhodey's an Lt.Col at this point. His collar insignia suggests Major.
My bad, he's clearly wearing the Lt. Col insignia. To be fair they are very similar. And to answer the original question; I'd imagine that the major received a rocket right up his arse from Rhodey after the mission was concluded.
3:41
Rhodey explaining what’s it’s like on GTA V everyday.
Literally one of the best scenes in all of Marvel history. Such a simple premise executed so well.
I really preferred Terrance Howard as Rhodes. Too bad he had contract issues.
Exactly, his acting was much more convincing and natural.
Yup, I always say that, but you got to give some credit to Don Cheadle in Endgame, he did a good job there. But yeah, I also prefer Terrence and also his chemistry on screen with RDJ
It wasn't because of contracts. He was paid more that RDJ for the movie
@@gayathriseetharaman3875 He was offered a huge pay cut he said go to hell
Don Cheadle was way better.
I saw this with my dad in theaters when I was 15 and was one of the greatest scenes I had seen in theaters at the time
all iron man suits can ignore inertia
I real life his body would've been turned into sloppy joe
Ishmael Moh “sloppy joe” xD
Iron man suits practically just break physics like they are nothing
More like they're probably built to act like a man sized jet plane with built in inertia proofing stuff so yeah, only in fiction
Timestamp please? At 1:02 for example he just used airbrakes.
2008 was the best summer for me. It was the greatest summer for movies. I remember when I saw this in an advanced screening in the Paramount Pictures lot theatre. My Father took us and there was line that stretched almost throughout the lot. Before that I ate the best meal I have ever had. It was also before the summer after my freshman year in high school and I spent it with family in Mexico. I had the best time. Everytime I think of this movie I think about the time I was introduced to the greatest cinematic universe and the greatest summer. Memories like this never die
Did you see TDK or tropic thunder though?
Terrence Howard is an excellent War Machine, he definitely could have lead his own film.
