Iron Man 2 is the second movie in the Iron Man Films series, released in 2010 and based on the Marvel Comics character Iron Man, starring Robert Downey Jr. as the armored Super Hero and directed by Jon Favreau. It is the third film in both the Marvel Cinematic Universe and its Phase 1, and notably, the first installment released after Disney bought out Marvel in 2009; however, both this and the next two installments were still distributed by Paramount Pictures.Several months after the events of Iron Man, the film deals with the consequences of Tony Stark outing himself as Iron Man and becoming the world's newest defender. His first major issue is Congressional hearings about sharing his tech, with rival (and perpetually second-place to Tony) industrialist Justin Hammer (Sam Rockwell) standing the most to gain. Despite their best efforts, Tony is untouchable: unbeatable in conferences and unstoppable as Iron Man. But his invincibility is tested by Ivan Vanko/Whiplash (Mickey Rourke), a man with a grudge against the Stark empire who is more than capable of challenging Tony's genius, as Tony is also dealing with a slowly fatal medical condition resulting from his arc reactor implant. Black Widow (Scarlett Johansson) makes her MCU debut in a supporting role and Lt. Col. James "Rhodey" Rhodes (now played by Don Cheadle) suits up as his alter-ego War Machine.Followed by the 2012 Crossover film The Avengers and the 2013 sequel Iron Man 3. | |

Artistic License – Gun Safety | |
| Iron Man 2 / int_10134c97 | comment |
Artistic License – Gun Safety: While it may seem like a standard Hollywood mistake when Justin Hammer calls magazines "clips" while showing weapons to Rhodey, he also demonstrates complete ignorance and/or apathy towards every rule of firearms safety, not bothering to clear any of the guns he picks up (all of which have magazines inserted), and lacking any muzzle or trigger discipline whatsoever. His appallingly unsafe handling coupled with the many technical details he gets wrong in the same scene subtly indicates that he really doesn't know what the hell he's talking about, and is trying to dazzle Rhodey with bullshit. | |

| Iron Man 2 / int_11cdfcf7 | comment |
Hammer claims the 7.62mm 6-barrel minigun that ends up integrated with the War Machine suit is known to the US soldiers who use them as, alternately, Uncle Gazpacho or "Puff the Magic Dragon". (He was half-right here: The AC-47 gunship, a Vietnam-era ground-support aircraft fitted with several such miniguns for More Dakka, was nicknamed "Puff the Magic Dragon" for the hail of tracer rounds it rained down on the enemy.) He also nicknames his not-so-super mini-bunker-buster, supposedly capable of "reducing the population of any standing structure to 0" (although it's actually a laughable dud that needs a little work) the "Ex-Wife". | |

Correlation/Causation Gag | |
| Iron Man 2 / int_12ffce31 | comment |
Correlation/Causation Gag: As the hacked Hammer drones start attacking the area, one little kid in an Iron Man masknote eventually confirmed by Word of God to be a young Peter Parker stands up to one with his toy repulsor to fire at the drone. As the drone mistakes the kid for Tony and takes aim as well, Tony drops in behind the boy, shoots the Hammer drone, then tells the boy "Nice work, kid" before taking off. | |

Instant Expert: Rhodey takes far less time learning how to use the suit than Tony did. Fully justified, as he's a lietuenant colonel in the Air Force and has had years of training in flight and combat that Tony never had. Still, this just goes to show how much of an instant Expert Tony is that after just a few months he's able to go toe-to-toe with Rhodey while drunk. | |

Punchclock Villain: Although not really villans; the guards at the Hammer facility do their best to stop Natasha and Happy when they arrive to take down Vanko. They are just doing their job when two unidentified persons show up, break in and start attacking them. And all without identifying the reason, or that Nat and Happy are the good guys. | |

Never Trust a Trailer: As cute/funny as that whole "You Complete Me" scene was in the trailer, it never showed up in the film. Nor does the scene in which Tony lends Natasha one of the Iron Man gauntlets. And several others. Ironically, they did consistently show up in the film's novelization (albeit loosely interpreted, given the improvisational nature of the film). | |

The Cameo Stan Lee gets confused for Larry King. Bill O'Reilly does a segment on his show, The O'Reilly Factor, on Tony's rash decisions. DJ AM spins the beats for Tony's crazy party. Larry Ellison Seth Green also has a blink and you'll miss it cameo. Elon Musk, pitching Tony on an idea for electric jets.note This is more important than it appears at first. Back when Iron Man 1 was being filmed, Jon Favreau "had no idea how to make (Stark) seem real." Robert Downey Jr.'s Exact Words were, "We need to sit down with Elon Musk." | |

The Stoic: Ivan Vanko is calm and collected even when held in captivity or being scolded by his billionaire employer. When Hammer tells his guards to start taking Ivan's bird and other comforts away, you can see when he stops protesting and when he starts just going with it silently. It's like flicking a switch. | |

Green-Eyed Monster: Even though he's wealthy like Tony Stark, Justin Hammer envies Tony's talent and success. His technology throughout the film is described as a joke and a failed knock-off of Stark Industries technology. His jealousy is even shown when he's talking to Tony or mentioning him. Heck most of his motivation in the film is to upstage Tony Stark. | |

Mythology Gag | |
| Iron Man 2 / int_26ac510e | comment |
Mythology Gag: A very obscure one: the Black Widow's cover identity "Natalie Rushman" refers to "Nancy Rushman," a cover identity the comic-book version of the Widow used in an arc of Marvel Team-Up in the 1970s. Tony's bodyguard, Happy Hogan, is shown training Tony how to box. In the comics, Happy was a boxer before becoming Tony's bodyguard. Given Happy's fight with a security guard (which he wins) later in the film, this origin probably still applies. The broken semi-transparent Captain America shield looks like it comes from the Reb Brown Captain America films. Here's a picture.◊ Tony suggests perhaps he could be Secretary of Defense, a position he held in the comics for a little while in the early 2000s. Happy Hogan rescues Tony from Vanko on a racetrack. In Tales of Suspense #45, Happy rescuing Tony from a crashed race car is how the two characters first met. The map of metahuman activity that Nick Fury shows to Tony has markers in Africa and the middle of the Atlantic ocean. The marker in Africa is in reference to the Black Panther, while fans have speculated that the one in the ocean is meant to hint at Namor. Tony stores his armor in an attache case, which dates back to the very earliest issues of Iron Man. The idea of the suitcase transforming into the armor dates back to the '90s animated series. The armor itself bears great resemblance to the Silver Centurion armor from the comics in its color scheme. The film's villain is named Ivan Vanko; he is more or less an amalgamation of the characters the Crimson Dynamo and Whiplash. His father's name is Anton Vanko, the name of the original CD in the comics. Anton Vanko defected to the West in 1963, the same year both Iron Man and the Crimson Dynamo first appeared. The Stark Expo is held in Flushing, NY, the original location of Stark's factory in the comic books. Olivia Munn's small role is as Chess Roberts, a reporter from the first issue of the third volume of the comics who only appeared once. Stark being forced to attend the Senate Armed Services Committee is lifted straight from the comics; the senator there was named Byrd, not Stern. Likewise, the government trying to get ahold of the Iron Man armor has been a recurring theme in the comics for decades, going away and coming back every so often. Stark's line about the suit being a hi-tech prosthesis was mostly true in the comics originally; in the film though, the arc reactor in his chest is perfectly capable of keeping him alive without any need for the suit at all. Monaco, where the racetrack scene takes place, was the home of Justin Hammer in the comic books. Ivan Vanko's fake ID and name tag at the racetrack is Boris Turgenov, the name of the second Crimson Dynamo. Stark getting drunk in his Iron Man suit and recklessly endangering lives in it is a reference to Demon in a Bottle. Though under different circumstances, Rhodey first donned the Iron Man armor in the comics due to Stark's alcoholism. Howard Stark is said by Nick Fury to have co-founded SHIELD; in the comics, Tony Stark co-founded SHIELD and provided them with all of their tech. In the same scene featuring Bill O'Reilly's cameo, Pepper Potts can be heard talking on the phone to company lawyers, attempting to do something about the acquisition and use of the Mark II armor by the government but ultimately being unable to. This is a reference to Armor Wars. Further, the person she is talking to on the phone is named Bert, who shares his first name with the lawyer Bert Hindel from Armor Wars. Rhodey's armor is called the Variable Threat Response Battlesuit by Justin Hammer in the film; this was the original name for the War Machine armor in the comics as well. Vanko remotely compromising War Machine's armor and taking control of it is similar to when Justin Hammer did this to Iron Man in the Demon in the Bottle story arc. Black Widow's first appearance in the MCU being an Iron Man story in which she's initially spying against Stark is a reference to her comics' origin as a recurring Iron Man villain. Senator Stern is likely named after Marvel Comics writer Roger Stern. | |

Defrosting Ice Queen | |
| Iron Man 2 / int_28c1d543 | comment |
Defrosting Ice Queen: A strange variation where, rather than over the course of the film, on the in-movie film reels Tony is going through, he starts to find more and more evidence that his father was not always the cold fish he remembers from his childhood. This was paid off in the Captain America film. | |

Bilingual Bonus | |
| Iron Man 2 / int_294ed981 | comment |
Bilingual Bonus: When Tony Stark asks Natasha if she actually speaks Latin, she responds with the phrase "Fallaces sunt rerum species," a quote from Lucio Anneo Seneca meaning "The appearances of things are deceptive." Also when Vanko tells Hammer that the drones at the show won't be fully capable, he adds that they will be able to "make salute." But in Russian, salyut means fireworks. The Stark Expo turns into one hell of a fireworks show. Black Widow is and speaks Russian, so she is able to reprogram Vanko's hack into War Machine's system. | |

Hollywood Hacking: Ivan Vanko needs about three seconds and twenty keystrokes to hack into Hammer's battlesuit system, the first time he sees it. He even lampshades it: "Software shit." It takes Black Widow only slightly longer to penetrate his security and shut them down. Obviously, Hammer's security systems are the worst. | |

Kick the Dog: Justin Hammer, twice. Once when he tries to pass off some random cockatoo as Vanko's bird, and again when he has his thug stuff it in a sack due to Vanko's apparent lack of progress. Averted by Vanko: He demands to be brought his pet bird, but Hammer brings in a different bird and tells him it's just as good, at which point every experienced movie viewer knows Vanko will throw a fit and kill the replacement bird. Instead he adopts it as his new pet. | |

Deliberate Injury Gambit | |
| Iron Man 2 / int_34e2157 | comment |
Deliberate Injury Gambit: In Vanko's first confrontation with Tony, his electrified whips made him incredibly dangerous from a specific distance. With a prolonged whip snag slowly melting through the armor, Tony starts deliberately tangling himself in the whip so that Vanko doesn't have any leverage, and since Vanko is otherwise unarmored, Tony could get in close and knock him out. The armor was nearly compromised as a result, but if he did nothing it wouldn't have ended well either way. | |

It was stated in the comics that she speaks fluent English (she's fluent in all the languages she speaks), plus being a spy, she'd need to be. You can hear the traces of a Russian accent near the end when she intimidates Justin Hammer into revealing his part in the Evil Plan. In Agent Carter, it is revealed that learning English in an American accent is par for the course for the Black Widow training facility. The girls in the Red Room speak along with American cartoons as part of their daily routine. | |

Energy Weapon: Tony unveils a high-powered wrist laser that can shear through basically anything, but uses cartridges that burn out after one shot. He pulls a 360-degree spin during the battle with the Hammer drones that turns them all into scrap. | |

| Iron Man 2 / int_454b2f2b | comment |
Secretly Dying: Tony Stark realizes that the Arc Reactor in his chest, which was supposed to keep him alive, is slowly poisoning him. He prepares for his death by handing control of his company to Pepper and undergoes a public, alcohol-fueled breakdown. It even turns out the suit James Rhodes managed to "steal" from him had been pre-programmed by Stark to allow Rhodes to pilot it. | |

Worthy Opponent: Ivan believes Tony to be the only one worthy enough to talk straight to. Other times he is either silent or in Hammer's case pretending to be an incompetent, broken English speaking Cloud Cuckoo Lander. With Tony, he makes his intentions clear and even follows Tony's sarcastic advice when upgrading his weaponry. | |

Only Evil Can Die | |
| Iron Man 2 / int_4bbf4b35 | comment |
Only Evil Can Die: Despite the Hammer Drones going amok amid the crowded Stark Expo and doing untold fortunes in property damage, not a single bystander is ever shown getting so much as a boo-boo. Even the poor mook in the horrific failed test, whose spine audibly snaps, is explicitly mentioned to have survived (though not recovered...). The two goons Hammer instructs to watch Vanko are killed (Vanko is later shown with blood all over him as their bodies hang limp in the background), there appears to be a death or two during Vanko's prison escape, and Vanko himself seems to blow up in an explosion of his own doing. Vanko's rampage during the race appeared to claim the lives of one or two racers since their cars explode and no one is seen leaving them. | |

Dramatic Spine Injury: Tony Stark shows the Senate Armed Services Committee a video of knock-offs of the Iron Man suit, finishing with a suit created by Hammer Industries. Just after being activated, the suit's pilot is asked to turn to the right, but instead of turning properly, the suit's torso spins 180° at the waist. There's a muffled scream, and then the visible arm sparks and goes limp, although Hammer tries to save face by saying that the test pilot survived. | |

Trash the Set | |
| Iron Man 2 / int_4ff6f484 | comment |
Trash the Set: In the first movie, Tony's Malibu house suffered some damage from his suit testing. In the second movie, it's destructively remodeled during his fight with Rhodes, and subsequently repurposed into housing a prismatic accelerator. It's really not much of a house any more. Probably why he's living in New York City in The Avengers. Iron Man 3 shows it got fixed up - just in time for Aldrich Killian to have it blown off the side of the cliff and into the sea. Oh, and we see Tony's old suits blowing up one-by-one. | |

Freeze-Frame Bonus: As mentioned in Foreshadowing... During the Iron Man/War Machine fight at the party, watch Pepper and Natalie. When the armored suits crash through the floor, Pepper screams and flinches, Natalie drops into a combat stance. Pay attention to what Rhodey knocks Tony into the fireplace with. He literally hit him with the kitchen sink. Around 1:13:55. Take a look at the image on the right page of the book Tony is thumbing through. A three-dimensional square within a three-dimensional square. Otherwise known as a Tesseract. Seems the Arc Reactor may be based off research on the cube Howard Stark picked up in Captain America: The First Avenger. When Tony builds the homemade cyclotron, he uses equipment from/for Project P.E.G.A.S.U.S. (Doubles as a Foreshadowing for Thor and The Avengers.) | |

Jerkass Has a Point | |
| Iron Man 2 / int_6b05b601 | comment |
Jerkass Has a Point: While Senator Stern is a jerk about it, it's hard to argue that he's wrong to be worried about leaving technology as sophisticated and dangerous as the Iron Man suits in the hands of a private citizen like Tony Stark. Granted, he probably only wants to hand it over to HYDRA to further their goals, but that doesn't actually disprove his point. Tony, also being a jerk about it, also has a point that, as a private citizen, the technology he invented is his and it is completely up to him who he allows to have it and the government cannot legally compel him to surrender it. | |

The Reveal | |
| Iron Man 2 / int_6b2b3b59 | comment |
Before The Reveal about her identity as Natasha Romanoff (not that it was a surprise to comic readers or... well, anyone who just saw the freakin' trailer) "Natalie" is given an early allusion as to her true role. When Tony and Rhodey are fighting in the mansion and burst from the ceiling, Pepper screams and cringes in horror. "Natalie" takes an Ass Kicking Pose. She also very briefly has a Russian accent when Tony goes out to drive a racecar, and tells Pepper "This is the first I am knowing of it." | |

In-Series Nickname | |
| Iron Man 2 / int_7360806f | comment |
In-Series Nickname: "Hammeroids". Near-ubiquitous among fans, but it was used by Tony first. Hammer claims the 7.62mm 6-barrel minigun that ends up integrated with the War Machine suit is known to the US soldiers who use them as, alternately, Uncle Gazpacho or "Puff the Magic Dragon". (He was half-right here: The AC-47 gunship, a Vietnam-era ground-support aircraft fitted with several such miniguns for More Dakka, was nicknamed "Puff the Magic Dragon" for the hail of tracer rounds it rained down on the enemy.) He also nicknames his not-so-super mini-bunker-buster, supposedly capable of "reducing the population of any standing structure to 0" (although it's actually a laughable dud that needs a little work) the "Ex-Wife". | |

Last Day to Live | |
| Iron Man 2 / int_781c0908 | comment |
Last Day to Live: Throughout the first half of the film, it is heavily implied that Tony Stark is dying due to palladium poisoning from his power core. He then (under the advice of Romanoff when he asks how, hypothetically, he should spend what may be his last day to live) ends up holding a party and getting wasted, much to Pepper and Rhodes chagrin. It later turns out there was a new undiscovered element that could save him. Tony Stark (with some help from S.H.I.E.L.D Director Nick Fury) survives, although he also has to deal with the consequences of his actions. | |

Costume Evolution: A subtle example. In the previous film, Tony wears a close-fitting outfit under the Iron Man suit, as it's been tailored precisely to his body, literally built around him. Here he's able to wear the armor over regular clothes, even a really nice suit. Part of what Tony is trying to do is to be able to suit up whenever, wherever, a theme that will continue through End Game. | |

Motor Mouth: Hammer babbles incessantly throughout most of his scenes; moreover, a lot of his impressive-sounding techno-jabber is pure bullshit. It's not entirely clear if it's a case of Obfuscating Stupidity or Hammer just being a schmooze who tries too hard. He's a foil to Tony, who also chatters, but usually has a point to everything he says, or to Vanko, who is highly intelligent but barely says anything. Vanko expressly calls him out on it during one of Hammer's angry rants, where Vanko's only response (in unsubtitled Russian) is "You talk too much." | |

Badass Boast: One thing you can always count on is you can count on me to pleasure myself! During Hammer's description of the Ex-Wife, which is mostly just him giving it flattering compliments that have little to nothing to do with its capabilities, he only gives one notable piece of technical information about it. He describes the missile as containing a 'cyclotrimethylenetrinitramine RDX burst'. He used two different terms for the same explosive (RDX) back-to-back. When War Machine uses it on Whiplash, it simply bounces off his armor and sputters on the ground. Ivan gives one of his own to Tony over the phone: Tony gets one when he appears before the Senate Committee. And his bombastic speech at the opening of the Stark Expo. | |

When we finally cut to Tony, he's wasted and face-first in a toilet; in full armor, no less. The main opening makes it look like Tony is inserting into a hostile warzone with him dodging anti-aircraft munitions, only for the explosions to be revealed as fireworks and him landing at his own expo. | |

Useful Book: Tony uses a prototype (?) of Captain America's shield to level part of the prismatic accelerator he's built. He also uses a number of stacked books to hold it up. Judging from the Captain America movie, Howard Stark probably started working on a prototype shield based on how the all vibranium one was being used but had to put it aside. | |

Canon Character All Along: After the Marvel-Sony deal in 2015, it's been speculated that the kid in the Iron Man mask at the Stark Expo is a young Peter Parker. It has since been confirmed by Word of God that it is him. | |

"Blind Idiot" Translation: The Russian news announcement Vanko is watching of Tony Stark's hearing headed by Senator Stern reads "Сенаторы вопро� Тони Stark". It's obviously supposed to mean "Senators question Tony Stark". However, "вопро�" only means question as a noun. Additionally, his last but not his first name is strangely not transliterated and left as "Stark" instead of "Старк". | |

Happy Hogan, of all people. After Ivan Vanko makes his grand Dynamic Entry during the race that Tony forces himself into, and is about to make his finishing blow on Tony, the bodyguard, in Tony's custom limo, comes out of nowhere, rams into Vanko full force, and keeps him effectively pinned against the chain-link fence for several minutes. He's shown to be decent in a fist fight but not on Black Widow's level. | |

Big Bad | |
| Iron Man 2 / int_970c790a | comment |
Pepper of all things, despite obviously being a highly capable and intelligent person, veers into this during the finale. So the Big Bad Evil Genius just sicced an army of Mecha Mooks on you and shot everything around you to hell. One of those mechs is lying disabled only a few steps away. That disabled mech's torso suddenly starts flashing a big red light, combined with a very audible accelerating countdown. What do you do? Why yes, of course you stay put and stare at the damn thing instead of hightailing it out of there. It's likely she realized there was little chance of outrunning the explosion on foot (in heels, with no time to ditch them), but it's played for drama so Tony can pull off another awesome rescue stunt. | |

Revenge Before Reason | |
| Iron Man 2 / int_97d97c28 | comment |
Revenge Before Reason: Vanko could have still had his vengeance by showing that someone else could create the Arc Reactor technology. He, as Tony stated, could have sold his knowledge about it to any foreign nation, or even the black market, for amounts of money. Hell, discounting the fact that Tony was able to save himself, he could have just waited until Stark DIED and become the only game in town, instead of going to so much trouble to kill him (he knew about the palladium poisoning). All of these things he could have done, but he was so bent on screwing Tony personally that he either never realized this, or more likely never cared. | |

Take Up My Sword | |

Take Up My Sword: In a movie that starts off with a speech about the importance of legacy, this is going to come up a lot. Howard Stark reveals that he discovered a new element that would perfect the arc reactor and revolutionize energy. However, he lacks the technology to create it and leaves it up to Tony to solve the problem. Rhodey is set up by the dying Tony to take over as armored hero. As Fury points out, the only way Rhodey could have activated the Mk. II was if Tony had already given him clearance to do so. Pepper takes over Stark Enterprises. | |

Unwitting Instigator of Doom: Subverted. It looks like Natalie Rushman gave Tony some very bad advice that led directly to the mess his birthday party turned into, because she had no idea he was dying. Turns out she's with S.H.I.E.L.D., though, and presumably knew all along and this was all part of the plan. | |

Heroic Bystander: Towards the end of the film, the Hammer-drones are rampaging and the crowd is fleeing in fright... except for one little boy wearing an Iron Man mask, who then holds up a gloved hand at one of the drones. The drone pauses, uncertain whether this boy is the real deal or not, giving the real Iron Man time to land and blast the drone away. He gives the boy a "Nice work, kid!" before flying away again. In doing this, the boy probably saved dozens of lives. | |

Evil Counterpart | |
| Iron Man 2 / int_9b54d536 | comment |
Evil Counterpart: Justin Hammer tries oh-so-hard to be this to Tony, only to fail spectacularly. It's really driven home during his display at the expo where he tries dancing his way onto the stage in an utterly feeble impersonation of Tony's showmanship to a very underwhelmed audience. Hilariously, when Tony shows up in the Iron Man armor, doing nothing more than coming in for a landing on the stage, the crowd goes wild. Ivan built a miniature arc reactor out of scraps and used it to power weapons that gave Iron Man a good run for his money. The novelization even has Tony note that if their fathers had been in reversed positions and it was Howard who was deported and left to descend into drunken depression, Tony might have ended up just like Vanko. | |

He's shown to be decent in a fist fight but not on Black Widow's level. The Mk II goes from a flight test beta to the embodiment of More Dakka. As discussed by Rhodey, this was the point. | |

Continuity Nod: During the final conversation between Tony and Nick Fury, a monitor displays a reporter doing live coverage of a "Crisis at Culver University". This is a reference to the Hulk's rampage about midway through The Incredible Hulk. The scene also establishes the relative timeframe of the two movies: it shows Stark accepting a job as a S.H.I.E.L.D. consultant, in which capacity he appears in the post-credits scene of The Incredible Hulk. | |

Cut Lex Luthor a Check: Discussed. Tony asks Ivan why he didn't take his arc reactor, inferior to his but still functional, to an enemy nation or the black market and make a fortune. He also could have lived a comfortable life on Hammer's dollar with the quality of work he was providing. In both cases, he preferred using his talents to get revenge on Tony instead of making money. | |

Hollywood Tactics: Played with. Tony and Rhodes discuss tactics in the moments leading up to the Hammer Drone attack in the garden, including taking the high ground, making use of cover, and avoiding the "kill box" in the middle of the garden. Unfortunately, they get distracted arguing over who's the bigger gun...leaving them right in the middle of said kill box when the Hammer Drones finally arrive a few seconds into their argument. They do all right, although it forces Tony to use up his best weapon before fighting Ivan Vanko head-on. | |

Obfuscating Stupidity: Vanko shows he's both fluent and eloquent in his early face-to-face confrontation with Tony Stark, but speaks to Hammer in broken, barely intelligible English just to dick with the guy. Later on he acts only barely competent at engineering and technology, convincing Hammer that the best he can do with the Hammer suits is to make drones and then later on that the best he can make the drones do is "salute." Hammer naturally underestimates him as a result. | |

No-Sell | |
| Iron Man 2 / int_abd29ad8 | comment |
No-Sell: Having had time to prepare when and where to attack Tony, Vanko's first set of armor is minimal, as he knows he's going up against Tony outside his own armor. Still, it lets him tank being rammed into a wall multiple times by Happy and is also able to deflect Tony's repulsor blasts when the latter gets into his armor. Hammer tries to intimidate and punish Vanko by taking his bird, his pillows, and his shoes. Instead, Vanko is thoroughly unimpressed, having spent years in prison. In Russia. Iron Man's Shoot the Hostage Taker gun system from the first movie makes a re-appearance as he tries to use it against Vanko's armor, targeting both his currently-unarmored head and spots around the shoulders. Being essentially a small-arms system, it's completely ineffective when Vanko's helmet snaps up to block the attack. | |

Chekhov's Skill: The feedback from two repulsor blasts hitting each other packs one hell of a punch. Another, more villainous example is Ivan's computer hacking skills. Natasha Romanoff's martial arts skills also come in handy. More or less done as a joke, but Happy's knowledge of boxing enables him to take down one security guard at Hammer industries... at the same time that Natasha is taking out all the rest. | |

Nice Job Fixing It, Villain | |
| Iron Man 2 / int_acf33d00 | comment |
Nice Job Fixing It, Villain: Justin Hammer's deal with Ivan Vanko turns out to be a mistake from his perspective. Vanko proves impossible to work with, uses Hammer's resources and technology for his own single-minded vendetta, ruins Hammer's Expo showing (while placing thousands of people in immediate danger, we might add) and ultimately leads to Hammer's arrest when it's discovered that he's behind Vanko's escape. The real kick in the pants? It was all totally unnecessary. If Hammer had simply waited, Tony Stark would have self-destructed on his own, been discredited in the eyes of the public, probably died from palladium poisoning, and Hammer would have still gotten his hands on the War Machine armor and been allowed to study/weaponize it as the premier US military contractor. | |

What You Are in the Dark: When confronted with his poisoning and seemingly imminent death, Tony asks Natasha Romanoff what she would do if she had only a brief time to live. Natasha, evaluating him for S.H.I.E.L.D., told him that she would do whatever she wanted. As a result, he decides to have a wild party at his house in Malibu in full armor, get drunk, and thereby endangering everyone around him. For that reason, Nick Fury allows the Iron Man suit to be a full Avenger, while Tony would be a consultant for failing his test. | |

Epic Fail | |
| Iron Man 2 / int_b4eff8a8 | comment |
Epic Fail: During the Senate hearing early in the film, the senator argues that other countries are trying to make their own battlesuits to replicate Iron Man. Tony promptly uses his own hacking skills to display videos of those attempts, showing just how incapable each of his would-be challengers are: The North Korean project is a chicken-legged battle suit whose legs are too spindly to support its own weight; it takes one step and breaks its leg, toppling over and discharging its gatling gun uncontrollably. For added Black Comedy, the bullets kill the camera-bearer recording this, causing his blood to splatter over the screen. The Iranian suit tries to uses its thrusters and can't control itself, launching itself in an impressive spiral through the air before slamming into a solid object at probably fatal velocity. Justin Hammer's own suit suddenly twists 180 degrees at the waist, audibly snapping the spine of the man inside it at the time. Hammer tries to save face by saying the pilot survived but that just elevates it straight into Squick. | |

Tragic Villain | |
| Iron Man 2 / int_b5171e10 | comment |
Tragic Villain: All Ivan's disdain for Tony's family is well-founded (save for the fact that his own father was a crook). His father was cut off from the project he helped start, was deported to a winter wasteland to die in a bitter swill of alcoholism and disgrace, and he himself got wrapped up in organized crime to make a living. Beneath his cold exterior is a genius mind that even Tony Stark is impressed by. Mickey Rourke wanted to play up more on this aspect of the villain, but due to Executive Meddling from Marvel, his ideas ended up on the cutting room floor. This caused Rourke to hate his experience at Marvel. | |

Too Dumb to Live: Yes, Justin. Let the brilliant, vindictive Russian physicist, who you've known only for a few hours, change the design and software of your massive army of Mecha Mooks. What Could Possibly Go Wrong?? Ironically, he's not one of Vanko's targets in the climax, although it would have been simple to kill him if it were. Pepper of all things, despite obviously being a highly capable and intelligent person, veers into this during the finale. So the Big Bad Evil Genius just sicced an army of Mecha Mooks on you and shot everything around you to hell. One of those mechs is lying disabled only a few steps away. That disabled mech's torso suddenly starts flashing a big red light, combined with a very audible accelerating countdown. What do you do? Why yes, of course you stay put and stare at the damn thing instead of hightailing it out of there. It's likely she realized there was little chance of outrunning the explosion on foot (in heels, with no time to ditch them), but it's played for drama so Tony can pull off another awesome rescue stunt. | |

It's All About Me: As the NYPD haul him away, Hammer accuses Pepper of trying to "pin [the blame]" for the Hammer Drone attack on him (while simultaneously complimenting her on her ruthlessness). This, despite the fact that the Hammer drones going rogue, resulting in millions of dollars in property damage and dozens of casualties, was basically entirely his fault. While he didn't specifically intend to cause what was going on, he illegally broke Vanko out of prison and gave a known mechanical genius and psycho access to all his technology, all just to further shady-at-best business practices. The most charitable option is that his plans have Gone Horribly Wrong. | |

Genius Bruiser: Ivan Vanko. Plain and simple. Capable of taking a few car hits to a torso without the benefit of power armor, though his Whiplash suit probably did some of thatnote the concept art galleries show that the Whiplash exoskeleton encases the legs as well. Neck snaps opponents with practiced ease, and hangs his two guards to retrieve his bird. He survived fifteen years in a Russian prison and is tattooed like an Ultranationalist. He can also build high tech gear with about the same level of stuff Tony had in the cave and can tell a rich CEO to his face that his computer systems are shit...because he hacked himself administrator privileges in about ten seconds. Black Widow, who can not only mow through dozens of Hammer security in a whirlwind of acrobatic martial arts in the time it takes Hogan to finally beat down one guy, but she also speaks several languages and can easily hack through Ivan's re-programming job on the Hammeroids in minutes, shutting them down without breaking a sweat. | |

| Iron Man 2 / int_bdc94cd9 | comment |
Compressed Adaptation: Tony's drinking problem harkens back to the "Demon in a Bottle" story in the 70's which highlighted his substance abuse. Unlike the comics, this is only treated as part of an overarching plot thread (Tony's slow death by palladium poisoning), instead of being the plot point itself. The part where Rhodey puts on one of the early Iron Man suits to beat some sense into Tony, though it seems more like an allusion; back in Tony's days as an alcoholic wreck, Rhodey subbed in for him as Iron Man. | |

When All You Have Is a Hammer… | |

When All You Have Is a Hammer…: Ivan's harness and later his Powered Armor aren't shown to have any on-board weapons like the Iron Man or War Machine armor, except for the whips. He still overpowers both of them because the whips are just that effective. It makes sense. The Iron Man and War Machine armors are filled to the brim with ranged weaponry, most of which is explosive. Up close, they either miss, or hit and damage both Vanko and themselves. The whips bring the attacker in close and immobilize them while delivering an electric discharge to fry and mangle the armor. | |

Let's You and Him Fight: At long last, we have a live-action comic book movie where two superheroes duke it out. Specifically, Rhodes taking the Mk II and the ensuing fight. They have a rematch later on, although under different circumstances. See "I Know You Are in There Somewhere" Fight. | |

Offscreen Moment of Awesome | |

Offscreen Moment of Awesome: Tony somehow manages to slip past the S.H.I.E.L.D. agents assigned to keep him inside his house and studying Howard Stark's old notes when he goes to visit Pepper and returns with the Stark Expo model. We never see how Vanko escapes (and kills) the Hammer goons sent to watch him, but according to the scene after, it was damn bloody. | |

Big Bad Wannabe: Hammer is one of the most obvious examples of the trope. He thinks of himself as Tony's rival and plans to ruin his expo and displace him as the world's number one Arms Dealer but he's strung along, outwitted, or ignored by Ivan every step of the way, and gets arrested when his Hammeroids get overridden by Ivan. | |

Boxing Lessons for Superman | |

Boxing Lessons for Superman: We see that Tony has been teaching himself how to box—and dirty box, with maybe a dash of MMA. It comes in handy later: on one occasion, he's able to outfight Rhodey (who is military-trained but is using a less-advanced suit and a rookie with Powered Armor) with Good Old Fisticuffs and on another, he beats down drones with his bare, er, well iron hands. | |

Begin with a Finisher: Rhodey points out that Tony should have used his deadly laser attack at the beginning of the battle. Tony's response is he was saving them, since they're one-time use only. A moment later, when Vanko arrives, Rhodey decides to use his most powerful weapon immediately: the bunker-buster missile "the Ex-Wife". It completely fails. | |

Kinetic Weapons Are Just Better | |
| Iron Man 2 / int_ccab244d | comment |
Kinetic Weapons Are Just Better: Inverted. The Ex-Wife is said by Hammer to be a kinetic-kill weapon, which can be brushed off as it being a buzzword he threw around... but if it really is the case, then it explains its total failure. The theory behind it is that the projectile is inert until it reaches high speed, as in the kinetic force will be what causes the destruction. Rhodey shooting Vanko that close would have only bounced back as it doesn't have enough room to accelerate, let alone arm itself even if it wasn't a dud. | |

What the Hell, Hero? | |
| Iron Man 2 / int_d39e327f | comment |
What the Hell, Hero?: Rhodey loses all his patience with Tony after Tony parties while wearing his Iron Man armor and using the suit's weaponry to amuse the guests. He decides Tony doesn't deserve the suit and hijacks the Mk.II suit to prove his point. Depending on how you look at it, there's Stern and all the people who aren't happy that Tony isn't sharing the Iron Man tech with the military (or, in Stern's case, with HYDRA). When War Machine was introduced, Pepper was just about to give this trope to Rhodey, but Tony beat her to it in order to warn Rhodey about Hammer and Vanko's collaboration. | |

Unobtainium | |
| Iron Man 2 / int_da8c447e | comment |
Unobtainium: Stark needs a non-toxic replacement for palladium for his reactor. Eventually, he builds a prismatic accelerator to produce a new element previously only discovered by his father. According to his computer screens, it's Ununoctium, which is not a metal though theorized to be part of the island of stability if the configuration of protons and neutrons is correct. In the novelization, it's Vibranium, an element that has appeared in the comics (in two distinct varieties) since the '60s, though it has different properties from those two varieties. Other MCU movies suggest that it's the same material, perhaps Asgardian in origin, that makes up the Tesseract. In the Fury's Big Week tie-in to The Avengers, which strings together these films' continuities with each other and the rest of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Fury says that Stark went on to try and patent this new element as "badassium", but bureaucracy was getting in the way. | |

Artistic License – Sports: When Ivan attacks Tony at the Historic Monaco Grand Prix, Happy has to dodge race cars still driving at full speed to get to him, despite the fact two cars were cut in half and the track is completely blocked. In real life, race control would have waved the yellow flag the moment Ivan walked onto the track and likely immediately called off the race once he started attacking the drivers. It's also very unlikely Tony would even get to drive his F1 car in the race, as many sanctioned race events require drivers to have competition licenses to prevent inexperienced drivers from causing accidents in very fast, very expensive cars. | |

No Endor Holocaust | |
| Iron Man 2 / int_e62dfb96 | comment |
No Endor Holocaust: See Only Evil Can Die below. The Hammer Drones, as well as Rhodes, wreak all kinds of explosive havoc during the expo, but nobody seems to come to any harm. This is averted in the novelization where it is mentioned that several people are killed. | |

Grand Theft Prototype: Rhodes jacks the Mk. II Armor from Tony's house and takes it to the U.S. military for study. Black Widow points out that the suits can only be activated by an authorized user, meaning Tony must have intentionally given Rhodes access prior to the party. Nick Fury lampshades how improbable this would be otherwise. | |

Adaptation Origin Connection: Anton Vanko has ties to Tony's father and the past of Stark Enterprises, though this is closer to the inverse, as Stark's family is tied to the birth of Whiplash rather than Vanko being involved in the creation of Iron Man. | |

Victory by Endurance: Ivan uses this strategy against Tony and Rhodes. By the time he engages the two in battle, they've already burned a lot of energy and ammunition on the army of drones Vanko sent against them. Furthermore, Tony has used up his One-Hit Kill ace-in-the-hole. Vanko still loses because of a Chekhov's Gun that the heroes can use. | |

American Robot: Justin Hammer tries to pass off his Hammeroid drones as this. They come in Army, Navy, Air Force and Marine models no less. Every model of drone has a specialist weapon or device attached to it - an anti-armor cannon for the Army, missile launchers for the Navy, high-speed flight systems for the Air Force, and close-range machine guns for the Marines. Too bad the Renegade Russian in charge of AI sets them on rampage... | |

You Killed My Father | |
| Iron Man 2 / int_fb6b207f | comment |
You Killed My Father: The main reason Vanko has a beef with Stark Industries - though technically, it's "your father had my father deported and left to rot in Siberia." Being deported is what caused Anton Vanko to develop a destructive drinking habit, which eventually killed him. Unusually for this trope, his Dynamic Entry doesn't include the traditional "My name is Ivan Vanko. You drove my father to alcohol poisoning. Prepare to die," announcement, and he immediately starts using lethal attacks. Had they been successful, Tony would have died without having any idea who his killer was or why he killed him. This rather unconventional approach underlines Vanko's role as The Quiet One. | |

| Iron Man 2 / int_fc151e9d | comment |
During Hammer's description of the Ex-Wife, which is mostly just him giving it flattering compliments that have little to nothing to do with its capabilities, he only gives one notable piece of technical information about it. He describes the missile as containing a 'cyclotrimethylenetrinitramine RDX burst'. He used two different terms for the same explosive (RDX) back-to-back. When War Machine uses it on Whiplash, it simply bounces off his armor and sputters on the ground. | |

Brick Joke: Tony says the senator that is hauling him to a subcommittee meeting should be giving him a medal. Guess what he leverages Fury to make the same senator do at the end of the movie. Happy chides Tony for "dirty boxing" during their workout. Later, when fighting a guard at Hammer Industries, Happy gains the upper hand by biting his ear. Doubles as a Shout-Out to Mike Tyson. Nick tells Tony at the end of the movie that they'll be using him as a consultant. Couple of years later, we get the short "The Consultant", where Coulson uses Tony as an annoyance to keep Ross away from the Avengers. | |

Pet the Dog: In his only displays of kindness, Ivan shows he likes cockatoos, even the one Hammer gets him in place of Vanko's own back in Russia. He apparently had a few other Pet the Dog moments in Russia to help flesh out his character, which were ultimately cut from the film, much to the annoyance of Mickey Rourke. | |

Shown Their Work: Vanko's tattoos were modeled after real Russian prison tattoos, which have different designs depending on things such as the length of the prison sentence. Except said tattoos show him to be a con man, who did time for theft, disorderly conduct, and rape of a minor. That was never mentioned on his rap sheet, nor is there a tat for his actual crime, which was plutonium smuggling. | |
