  3. 19:22 That little tease with Captain America’s shield was such a fun moment. By this point, audiences knew these films would build off each other and to look out for Easter eggs hinting at the next films. It was a big shift from past Marvel movies, which were all disconnected due to legal rights. There were planned cameos, in the past like Wolverine having a planned cameo in Spider-Man 2 (2002), but they never happened. It's a shame because I can totally imagine a world where the X-Men, Spider-Man, the Fantastic Four, and the MCU all overlapped with Easter eggs and references, especially during those early MCU days. I grew up on the 90s Marvel shows like Spider-Man, X-Men, and Fantastic Four and they all featured cameos and references to the greater Marvel Universe. Spider-Man even had a crossover epiosde with the X-Men, same voice actors and everything connecting the shows together.

    Now, Marvel are trying to find find creative ways to introduce the X-Men and Fantastic Four into the MCU in ways that make sense, especially after 16 years of MCU history with no appearances from these two iconic teams. But I'm super excited for Fantastic Four: First Steps (2025) and the whole idea around that film.

  8. "Well, he's lost his House"… He's Tony Stark! He may have to dip into petty cash to replace everything, no problem. and in the Meantime, he'll have to decide which of his other 19 Mansions he'll have to stay in.

  9. 1:37 "Scarlett Johansson … uh la la" 😂 I love your reaction.

    2:24 "He kind of reminds me of a cooler Elon Musk." * with Tony's voice * : A much MUCH cooler version.

    2:48 "Still cocky." Told ya. 😁

    4:11 "I love their chemistry." Yeah, it's brilliant.

    6:58 "So he's like still continuing to flirt with other ladies. So I guess Pepper Potts and him are not going to have a thing after all." Not so fast. Tony Stark obviously isn't a "focus on only one woman blending out all the rest" kind of man. Flirting is his second nature. That does not mean he can't love someone deeply. He just laid his legacy into Pepper's hands. What do you think that means based on what you've learned about Tony's personality so far?

    7:03 I love it, when a director gives the actors a chance (… and challenge …) to convey everything that's needed to (not) be said without even a word. 🌟 Well they added a "What?", but that's not really there for anything more than to end the moment.

    7:21 * Instant incapacitation * Welcome Natasha. 😀 "I want one." 😂

    20:50 "The writing!" Yeah, really good.

    23:47 "I got him!" I love the comedy in these movies.

    26:53 "They are so cute together." Yep. 🙂

    27:58 "I love these Marvel movies so much. The way that they connect to one another is amazing." And they get more and more connected as you progress through them. 🙂

  11. When you take the Human Element out of Battle, What do they fight? In Machine vs. Machine, the highest Tech will win, but things like "Collateral Damage" and "Innocent Civilians" become meaningless.
    And because of the First Iron Man, Tony knows that if the Military gets his suit, they'll make 100's more… And After Stane's selling Tony's Tech to an Enemy, Tony doesn't want to risk it. Imagine an "Iron Army" vs. Another "Iron Army"… the entire planet could be wiped out or enslaved.

  12. So pretty sure what Rhodes and The US Military did with the War Machine Suit was illegal. They took one company's proprietary technology (Stark Industries) and gave it to their biggest competitor (Hammer Industries).

  14. What a perfect sequel. To take all the lore from the last movie and Tony’s origin story of becoming iron man and expanding it like they did here was amazing. This, and Terminator 2 are up there for some of my favorite sequels in a franchise

    Hammer was such a perfectly acted / written villain with how easy he is to hate. Literally the first scene with the two of them together and I’m hoping for Vanko to beat him up 🤣 Also, gotta say all the interactions between Tony and Senator Stern is pure gold. I wouldn’t have guessed that the most I’d laugh in an Iron Man movie so far is during a senate hearing

    I love the duo fight scene with Tony and Rhodey against the drones in the dome so much! Finally seeing them actually work together in combat after two movies of teasing it is so good. Also, the sound design on Rhodey’s arm guns is soooooo good, omg, I need to fire those things in a video game hahaha

    Great reaction! These MCU reacts have been so much fun to watch

  19. "A cooler Elon Musk"? You mean a cool Elon Musk, cuz he's not cool to begin with lol To be frank, he is quite an atrocious and vile human being.

    Also I have to say, while I despise war, if war is to be fought – it must be fought with men. That is, it must be fought with human beings. The loss of human life in war is the epitome of despair and tragedy, but autonomous weapons are at best – catastrophic and at worst, literally civilization ending. Autonomous weapons must be avoided at all costs as too many things can go wrong and unfortunately, nations like the US are doing the opposite. Three years ago New Zealand pushed for an international ban on autonomous weapons, on which the US refused to vote. Currently, the US is attempting to make autonomous F-16 fighter jets. Last year the US military denied that it conducted an AI simulation with a drone in which the drone killed its simulated pilot in order to keep them from interfering with the drone completing its mission. The drone was tasked with doing some sort of thing to garner points, and its mission was to achieve the most amount of points it could. During the simulation it realized that if it killed its operator it would be able to conduct its task unhindered and earn more points as a result. Obviously, no one should trust the military when it denies it's doing something.

    This is why autonomous weapons must be prohibited and avoided at all costs. If you want a more visceral look at what that might possibly look like, if you haven't already, you should play Horizon Zero Dawn.

  21. 24:45 There is a real arboretum within the Queens Zoo at Flushing Meadows Park in New York. It was built as part of the 1964 New York World's Fair. However, it looks very little like the Oracle dome portrayed in this film. The filmmakers took elements of real-world Flushing Meadows (like the Unisphere, the large metal globe, and the New York State exhibit, the large area with the towers where the 'center stage' was portrayed) and combined it with movie magic to create the Stark Expo. The New York State exhibit hasn't had glass in the suspended ceiling since around 1980 when the last of it came down and the elevators to the towers haven't worked since shortly after the fair closed in 1965.

  26. just a thought, early access is one of the main reasons I and a lot of other sub to Patreon for these type of movies. It might be a good idea to knock out a couple of films at once so you can offer early access and get a higher chance of people subbing! Love your reactions!

  34. Heya Kali, thanks for a great reaction to Iron Man 2. The MCU movies are just a little popular so I've seen lots of reactions to them and you're picking up on different things and highlighting different elements… you're a great reactor, thanks for doing what you do.

  35. Hello, Kali.
    Mickey Rourke as Whiplash is probably one of the best updates of an Iron Man villain in the MCU.
    Your reaction to this movie was perfect except for leaving out the Stan Lee cameo that Your fans look for. In every MCU we wait to see the reactors give a shootout to the great man.
    And shoukd make your reactions about 5 minutes longer, that would mean more time for us to gage your reactions better. And spend more time with you.
    Thanks for listening.
    Keep going and enjoy the movies.

  36. Looking forward to "Thor", huh? Marvel put out a series of short films called "Marvel One-Shots". At this point in the Marvel timeline, two would take place before the events of "Thor". The first is "The Consultant" and takes place after the events of "Iron Man 2". The second takes place a few hours before the events of the after credits scene in "Iron Man 2" and before the events in "Thor" That one is titled "A Funny Thing Happened On The Way To Thor's Hammer". Both of these short films run about 4 minutes each. All of these one-shots are considered canon and give extra information into what was going on that the movies did not show. You really should check these extras out.
    There are three others. The third one-shot over-all is "Item 47", which takes place after the events of "The Avengers", and runs 12 minutes. The fourth is "Agent Carter", which takes place after
    "Captain America: The FIrst Avenger" and runs about 12 minutes. The final one is "All Hail The King", which takes place after the events of "Iron Man 3" and runs 14 minutes. All of these are available on Disney+ and Youtube (although, on Youtube, you have to be careful to select the full length version, as shorter versions are also available).
    Also starting right after "Iron Man 3" was "Marvel's Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D.", a television series that ran for 7 seasons on ABC-TV. It initially tied in with the movies, but as the series and movies went along, the communication with between Marvel Movie Division and Marvel's Television Division broke down. Through the 5th season of the show, the television show still tied with the movies, although it wasn't as obvious as it was in the first few seasons. Still an excellent show though, rating a 95% overall for the series on Rotten Tomatoes Tomatometer and 91% on their Popcornmeter. "Agents of Shield" is also available on Disney+.
