The "Easter Eggs/References" Thread (Spoilers to minimum)

[Gamingboy]

Hello.
One of the things I absolutely LOVE about these types of movies are the little Easter Eggs and continuity nods and references in them. However, you sometimes miss them if you don't know where to look. With the movie now out in some non-North American markets, I think it'd be cool if we compiled some of the known nods and easter eggs in IM2. Although this is the spoilers forum, I suggest that, since the movie has not yet had it's big North American release, any BIG spoilers be put in spoiler tags like this.

I'll start with some that are known from the reviews and news going around:
After the credits, we have a scene where Agent Coulson of SHIELD locates Mjolnir in a New Mexico desert

[kendo]

Saw it today! Liked it a lot!

Here's one that posters on another board might like:

Coulson and Tony both handle Cap's shield. Well an unfinished version of it anyway. I don't think it's the actual one Cap uses because I t=would guess that it might be lost with Cap and Tony/his father was working on a new one and abandoned it. Cool to see how Coulson seemed in awe of it where as Tony....not so much.

3.
Nick Fury says hes the realest person Tony Stark will ever meet

4.
Nick Fury also says hes got bigger problems in the South West (or was it South East?)

[Gamingboy]

Not really a easter egg or anything, but in the trailers at least (someone who is lucky enough to have seen the movie can confirm for me) you can see Obadiah Stane in some of the pictures of Stark that Whiplash has on his wall. Nice nod to the last movie and how it was said that he and Tony had been such good lifelong friends and business partners.

[PumpkinBombxXx]

So does any one know if tony goes straight from this to the Scene at the end of hulk or does he still not want to be part of a superhero boy band

[Mauser9910]

Around the end of the film, in the SHIELD office, there's a world map with specific locations marked, it'd be interesting to see what could be relevant. I saw a spot in Eastern Africa (Black Panther/ Wakanda ?) and one in Norway (Thor ?).

[TheFuture]

I enjoyed the bonus scene, was I the only one who was sure it was Thor related once Coulson said he was reassigned to New Mexico. Or maybe it was blooming obvious I don't know. :o

[Wolvieboy17]

I think it was pretty obvious to the fans, Future.

[TheFuture]

I think it was pretty obvious to the fans, Future.

True enough. :oldrazz:

[Wolvieboy17]

Seriously though...... that after credits scene... I'm still buzzing about it. I found a screenshot of it online too, and i've just been looking at it, purring like a kitten.... To quote the great Tony Stark, "I want one!"

I would have liked a more lingering shot, when the camera zooms out to it, it's gone in a second.

[Wolvieboy17]

Go to bleedingcool.com. Theres a screenshot of it there..... so gooood!

[TheFuture]

Go to bleedingcool.com. Theres a screenshot of it there..... so gooood!

:woot: :up:

It looks sweet. Not too flashy or anything but it really looks like it can do massive damage.

[Wolvieboy17]

Which is cool. It just looks exactly like the comics. I'm glad they didn't try to jazz it up or anything. I would have loved to have seen the words on it though.

[jadejaws]

Incredible Hulk campus footage on a screen in SHIELD safehouse

Can you actually see the Hulk on screen or is it just the left over destruction?

[Spider-ManHero12]

Go to bleedingcool.com. Theres a screenshot of it there..... so gooood! I just whent to the site, and wow, it looks amazing! :up:

[Darkness Falls]

saw the movie yesterday, not knowing what the after credit scene was beforehand i seriously geeked out :awesome:

[Randal Graves]

Incredible Hulk campus footage on a screen in SHIELD safehouse
Really?

[Kokomo29]

I've heard that Captain America's shield in the movie was very technological, unlike its comics counterpart. Can anyone confirm that? I've heard that it is very high-tech in Iron Man 2.

[Steve Holt]

Really?


it was the Asian female reporter footage from TIH, the one where she talks about the campus and Jack McGee

[Mr. Earle]

Why would Tony be building a shield for Cap if he hasnt been found yet?

[TheFuture]

I've heard that Captain America's shield in the movie was very technological, unlike its comics counterpart. Can anyone confirm that? I've heard that it is very high-tech in Iron Man 2.

Not really, it looks plastic and is hanging together. In fact I don't think it was Cap's shield but was actually a prototype designed by Howard Stark.

Why would Tony be building a shield for Cap if he hasnt been found yet?

Coulson picked it out of a box that consisted of Howard Stark's property, so I think it was just a prototype that Howard designed decades ago. Or at least that's what I'd hope is the situation because the look of the shield didn't impress me at all.

The only problem is that Coulson talks about the shield in awe as if it were the original shield that Cap used on the battlefield.

[henry_9305]

I heard that there will be a Fin Fan Foom eastereggs. Is it really there ?

and the after credit scene is awsome :awesome:

[Obi-Ron]

it was the Asian female reporter footage from TIH, the one where she talks about the campus and Jack McGee

Which means TIH must come before IM2, or at they happen at the same time...

[Shivsguy616]

Which means TIH must come before IM2, or at they happen at the same time...

It would have to be the same time. If it was before IM2 then Tony would have been on board with the AI from the begining.

[DarthDaveBanner]

I don't know if this counts as an easter egg, but...

Tony's green juice makes a return.

[Steve Holt]

i think they're all happening at the same time

[PumpkinBombxXx]

Hey just watched the first Iron Man and noticed the Roxxon Corp. building behind Iron Monger when he launches the missle at the bus. Does any one know if it is mentioned in IM2. In the comics it is responcible for many a super villain. Its a nice easter egg in the first one just curious if it pops in the 2nd one at all

[Crowdome]

At the start of the movie, on Vanko's wall, there's a magazine cover with a headline about a Solar Storm. Fantastic Four reference :oldrazz:

[Mantis Rapture]

The funniest thing about the whole experince of watching the movie, for me, was making my friends sit through the credits to watch that scene. Having not spoiled myself i didn't know exactly what to expect, but presumed it was something to do with Agent Colsun (? I forget his name everytime i go to write it) seeing as his very pointless character just pissed off halfway through the film

None of them new what the hell it meant and were all pretty angry we missed last orders at the bar because of i made them stay and watch it.

I was thinking - are these kinda 'Easter Eggs' even worth it? Most people don't have a clue what they're refering too, and in this film, to me at least, it felt that Shield/Nick Fury/Agent whateverhisnameis was one giant easter egg for future Marvel films, not serving the plot of the film at all, and in fact slowing it down a fair bit.

[PumpkinBombxXx]

Im going to disagree with you Mantis. Those are put in there for the fans and trust me we get it. Its nice that the general audience pays for us fanboys to see the Super Heros we grew up with come to life. So dont get me wrong i love you guys for it but these are not really made for you, I know that they have to cater to you so you guys will watch it to but still its made for the fans. So if you dont understand what it means it doesnt really bother any one.
Oh and to a fan yes these easter eggs are worth it. Im not aven a fan of Thor and i totaly lost my mind and cant wait to see the movie. Its all about loveing the universe and watching it be born on the silver screen:bomb:

I agree. Stick these Easter Egg endings at the end of the movie like in The Incredible Hulk, not right at the end of the credits. Only comic fans get them and these frustrate their friends who humor them by sitting through the credits with them only to frown in bewilderment at what the hell these scenes are meant to mean. It can work just as well before the credits roll.

The one redeeming factor of this movie was that scene. It actually said FU to the general audience in a way. Things like the showing off of the Captain America shield was just annoying. Also flaunting Fury at a random point and Stark creating Vibranium (though was this actually said during the movie? I can't remember hearing it). So the Thor scene made me smile, but all the rest was just a stupid bloody marketing ploy.

[PumpkinBombxXx]

isnt caps shield made up of Vibranium and some other **** maybe he was talking about the metal that it all turned into

Dude. I knew what every reference throughout the film meant. I'm a geek. A closeted one perhaps, but a geek none the less.

What i was trying to say was, with Marvel dropping all these references to the still forming Marvel-Movieverse, are they gonna confuse the non-geeks? Is it worth sacrificing the integraty of the film by filling it with knowing winks to people like us? I had explain who Nick Fury was, who Shield were, who The Avengers were, who the Shield and Hammer belonged too to my friends after the film. They had no idea, and to be honest, didn't care.

I dont mind easter eggs as a bit of fun, but when they're scattered throughout the film, are sometimes at the forefront of scenes and sometimes turned into 'full-on' characters ala Nick Fury (and it is never explicitly explained who he is or what his intentions are - he's just a teaser for geeks like us who know what the crack is), are they getting in the way of the story?

I dunno.

[PumpkinBombxXx]

They say who he is in the first one so i guess they expect you to have seen that much at least. Not trying to attack you Mantis i just get defensive when i think im talking to the general audience. So sorry for lumping you in there with them

[Mantis Rapture]

Ha, it's all good dude, i nearly punched each one of my friends directly in the face for not knowing who The Avengers were after the film!

[ToilesHeroiques]

Error.

[Hotwire]

I found an HD (1080p) version of the Iron Man 2 bonus scene :yay:
Another Newbie who isn't going to last very long. You need to take that down before a Mod sees it.

[Obi-Ron]

isnt caps shield made up of Vibranium and some other **** maybe he was talking about the metal that it all turned into

Cap's shield is an adamantium/vibranium alloy. Since adamantium is mentioned in the X-Men movies (Wolvie's skeleton) it may be that Fox has the rights to using it.

Has anyone seen any Mandarin/Ten Rings references in IM2?

[ToilesHeroiques]

No mention of Fin Fang Foon or Mandarin in the movie :csad:
In fact, nothing for Iron Man 3.

Favreau tells :


"If you look at the screens, especially when you're dealing with the S.H.I.E.L.D. agents, you can start to see areas identified there," said Favreau of a few moments in which S.H.I.E.L.D. computers monitoring current events appear in the background of a scene. "There are little clues that are layered into graphics that relate to other films, other franchises in this world. You might want to look at it a few times or wait for the DVD."


I see the movie twice and I make a list :


- Europe: no points in Great Britain (Captain Britain, Excalibur, there was something to do !)... but in Scandinavia. Hard to say exactly where, or what it means.

- Africa: East Africa (Somalia, Kenya). One thinks immediately to Wakanda, except that by different sources, the fictional country is farther west. But no doubt that for a film, it is possible to take some liberties with geography.

- Atlantic Ocean: in the southern Atlantic Ocean, between Brazil and Angola. No idea what it could be.

- USA: East side, Washington / New York, probably Tony Stark. To the west, probably Hulk. New Mexico: Thor. A final point in Alaska ...

[PumpkinBombxXx]

Vibranium was in Xmen origins wolverine its the rock fragment that they are looking for in africa they use that with two other things to make adamantium, at least in the movies i dont remember how its made in the comics. They never get around to calling it vibranium im guessing because they dont have the rights to that. Probobly goes with the Black Panther were ever the rights for that character may lay

[Thor2011]

This are the easter eggs that I saw.

Around the end of the film, in the SHIELD office, there's a world map with specific locations marked,

I saw a spot in Eastern Africa Black Panther/ Wakanda,
I saw another spot in L.A. Iron Man
Another in New Mexico Thor
Another in New York Hulk(the fight with abomination is in new york)
Another between Canada an Groenland Captain America freezed
and I saw another in europe but i dont know who can be.



The other easter egg that I saw is when tony open the box with the stuff of his dad , you can clearly see a Captain America comic.

[Mr. Earle]

Fin Fang Foom was supposed to be on a big sign that Ironman would fly by. Dont know if that's true, i havent seen the movie yet.

[IronMan]

Captain America shield in Iron Man 2 apperance in film!Why?

[Wesley Dodds]

Presumably, he bought it from a private collector or something...

[Ghrunter]

Howard Stark was one of the founding members of Shield, so he was probably involved in the Super Soldier programme. Maybe it was just amongst the stuff Tony found from his Dad

[ToilesHeroiques]

I see Iron Man 2 again (3 times :woot:). Update of the SHIELD map :

+ we can see an Artic's map in the Howard Stark trunk.

Sorry, it's a traduction of a french article with all Iron Man 2 easter eggs/hidden reference. We have 7 points on the map :up: !

http://lestoilesheroiques.blogspot.com/2010/05/iron-man-2-vengeurs-hulk-captain.html (http://lestoilesheroiques.blogspot.com/2010/05/iron-man-2-vengeurs-hulk-captain.html)

- Africa: East Africa (Somalia, Kenya). One thinks immediately to Wakanda, except that by different sources, the fictional country is farther west. But no doubt that for a film, it is possible to take some liberties with geography.

- Atlantic Ocean: in the southern Atlantic Ocean, between Brazil and Angola. Probably Namor, prominent member of Invaders, whose presence in the film Captain America is already assured. The main problem is that Namor is a mutant (he "belongs" to the then Fox) ... but basically, it is primarily a character in the category "Heroes" and not a mutant. If one adds his presence on the map, I think his presence is highly plausible in the future!

- Greenland / Iceland: where is Captain America in Freeze mode? Without doubt, as it says that Captain America is frozen in North Atlantic. Except ... in the DVD of the Incredible Hulk, the body cap is frozen with his shield, but Arctic. The geographical difference is not huge anyway.

- USA: East side, Washington / New York, probably Hulk. To the west, no doubt Tony Stark. New Mexico: Thor.

[TheFuture]

It's a prototype, it looked way too ****** to be the real deal.

[Wesley Dodds]

Well, yeah but it could've been the original WW2 shield. Of course it looked ******, it's battle damaged.

[shogunrua]

not battle damaged, more like an unfinished version. And yeah it was in the middle of the stuff from his dad that Nick Fury gives to Tony

[Wesley Dodds]

not battle damaged, more like an unfinished version. And yeah it was in the middle of the stuff from his dad that Nick Fury gives to Tony

Which is a little bit confusing considering the shield is also clearly seen in the first movie too. Before he got his Dads stuff.

[joke]

Tony's father was a founding member of SHIELD in the movieverse and it was amongst his other belongings that Fury gave Tony. But you're wrong, it wasn't Cap's shield, it was a plastic model of the shield with a cross-section of the different layers that make it up.

[Wolvieboy17]

Its not in Howard Starks crate, it's in a different box. Coulson reaches in and gets it out... I've seen it twice, and the Howard Stark crate it alot smaller than the one he gets the shield from... Also, theres no way the shield would even fit in the howard stark crate.

[Dark Raven]

On IMDB it lists Mrs Arbogast in the credits. Which one was she? Was she the secretary who came in when Pepper was at her desk and Tony was trying to bring her strawberries?

Also, Pepper was on the phone to Bert from legal. Was that Bert Hingle, Stark's sleazy lawyer in the comics whom Tony fired, and who later represents Bree Daniels, the girl who shot Tony Stark?

[TheFuture]

Well, yeah but it could've been the original WW2 shield. Of course it looked ******, it's battle damaged.

Isn't the shield meant to be like, indestructable? :cwink:

[Lone]

There was a guy listed as "ten rings gangster" in the credits. I don't know if he's the guy who got Ivan his passportor the body double in the prison.

TIH and the arrival of Thor takes place half way through this film. The arrival of Thor was also foretold in TIH during one of the news segments with the asian reporter which was also seen at the end of IM2 which leads me to believe the thunderstorm in TIH is in fact the arrival of Thor. I watched TIH before I went to watch IM2 and after and found TIH to be more awesome.:awesome:

Seriously, Marvel is doing a great job at making the movies feel like part of a larger universe. :up:

TIH scene with the thunderbolt was just an illusion to the Hulk: Gray miniseries.

[LightningFlash]

True, and even though we didn't SEE Thor(which wasn't that rock, lol), there could've been a massive storm over the entire United States when Thor fell from Asgard.

It could always be a hint when you think about it, imo.

And 2,000th post, woo-hoo!!

[RaZaTrOn]

On IMDB it lists Mrs Arbogast in the credits. Which one was she? Was she the secretary who came in when Pepper was at her desk and Tony was trying to bring her strawberries?


Yes it was Bambi Arbogast

[Dark Raven]

Yes it was Bambi Arbogast

It didn't click that it was her. She wasn't old or rotund enough, and she needed a more bossy personality. If she had acted that way, I would've thought "hey, she seems just like Bambi Arbogast!" and then would've been pleasantly surprised to find out later on that it was.

If we're getting Mrs Arbogast, we should've had her sister, Uranus Bliss, who showed up intermittently in the Iron Man comics and Stark kept crashing into her when he rushed off to change into Iron Man.

[TheseScars]

Just saw the film and it was pretty good. I was kind of down on it for a few weeks but after seeing it I don't have a lot of complaints. I felt like you can watch Iron Man and Iron Man 2 back to back and not have a problem with tone, continuity, ect. As soon as I got into the Iron Man 2 I didn't want it to end bc it felt just like the first movie.

Okay as for easter eggs :

The Cap shield was the same shield laying around from the first movie but we get a better look at it this time around. Tony is looking for something to put under this piping while he's making his new RT and Coulson walks in a picks it up and is like, " Why do you have this?"...seemingly like he knew exactly what it was and how special it was. Tony pays no mind and takes it and puts it under the piping to have something strong to hold it up..haha. The star and the whole center is cut in half so you can see the inner workings of the shield..looks like he was disaselmbling it or building a mach model

I saw the locations on the SHIELD screen and the one in Europe could be Red Skull?

I wish Fury made it more clear to Stark that there are other hero's with powers and not tech suit

Was expecting a better ending scene but oh well. I can't wait for Thor now to see how Stark reacts to finding out about Asgard and Thor's powers and all that stuff...should be funny..

[Obi-Ron]

TIH scene with the thunderbolt was just an illusion to the Hulk: Gray miniseries.

That's an allusion, not an illusion.

[LightningFlash]

^^ Nope, Doctor Strange is involved, lol.

[3 Dev Adam]

TIH scene with the thunderbolt was just an illusion to the Hulk: Gray miniseries.

Well, they CAN retrofit Thor there... if they want to.

[ironman29758]

That's an allusion, not an illusion.
I meant to say allusion, but I was in a rush.

[LightningFlash]

^^ What kind of excuse is that? 'A' and 'I' are worlds apart from eachother on the keyboard, lol.

[TheVileOne]

The guy that got Vanko the stuff could've been working for 10 Rings, but there was nothing to clearly identify him as such.

[LightningFlash]

The only thing we were given was a Ten Rings character typed on the end credits. It's sad because we were given so much Ten Rings story in the novel.

[protocida]

Tony's comment about the government making him Secretary of Defense is a reference to the time in comics where Tony actually was Secretary of Defense.

[VenomVsSpidey]

maybe I'm crazy, but in the beginning when tony & happy ask to see the lady's badge, her badge strike's a resemblance to that of captain america's

[E.Brock]

haha good observation

[roach]

the screens aslo show a superhuman in africa(Black Panther) and in the middle of the atlantic(Namor)

[Hush]

I think the guy that Got Vanko out of prison was the 10 rings gangster.

[E.Brock]

what is this I hear about there being a reference to Justin Hammer being in the 10 rings?

[Hush]

Not sure about that Brock but Hammer seems rather a dumb figure to include in the Ten rings.

[Maximum Carnage]

the screens aslo show a superhuman in africa(Black Panther) and in the middle of the atlantic(Namor)

No ****? Holy crap.. This stuff is wayyy too damned cool. Lol. Amazing time to be a comic book/movie buff!

[roach]

No ****? Holy crap.. This stuff is wayyy too damned cool. Lol. Amazing time to be a comic book/movie buff!

they dont show the characters just a map with points highlighted...I assume BP and Namors since no one else would come from those regions

[LostSon88]

Captain America shield in Iron Man 2 apperance in film!Why?

Because Howard Stark designed a prototype for the shield.

...that and because it was freakin' AWESOME.

Seriously its not a big deal I mean CA's shield (or at least another prototype of it) is shown in the first Iron Man as well...

[Mr. Earle]

But it didnt look like a shield, it looked like a plastic toy or something.

[LostSon88]

Well clearly that was one of the very early prototypes...

[Spider-Vader]

Not sure about that Brock but Hammer seems rather a dumb figure to include in the Ten rings.

I think Hammer will have ties with Mandarin in IM3, probably the reason that he wasn't killed.

ahh. my bad. :doh:

[dylan]

this one could very well be a stretch but i figured id register just to post it anyway since i havent seen it yet

ii remember reading this board after the incredible hulk came out and all the talk of thunder and such during the fight at the college and just like most people i blew it off as being nothing to do with thor. but during the scene at hte monoco grand prix when whiplash attacks iron man i swear i heard some thunder in the background.....but i could be wrong and it could be nothing. did anyone else notice this or am i crazy?

[SpiderByte]

Not really, it looks plastic and is hanging together. In fact I don't think it was Cap's shield but was actually a prototype designed by Howard Stark.



Of course it was. Do you really think that they had that kind of tech in WWII? Seriously people.

[TNC9852002]

But it didnt look like a shield, it looked like a plastic toy or something.
Uh, it looked like a shield, but it was unclear what it was made of.

[The Geek Vault]

So I know this isn't a easter egg but it made me chuckle. In the end scene we see the Agent's car pull up with the plate that says "New Mexico: Land of Enchantment" I lol'd! Also one of my friends thinks that Thor actually appears in the film. During the scene where we see Ivan in jail the camera pans down the cells and we see a tall bearded man getting his picture taken.. thor?

[VenomVsSpidey]

I heard that was orignally his cameo. No BS. and It looked a tad like hemsworth imo

[JerseyJoker]

This whole shield debate will soon turn into the "Did Joker mouth 6 or 10" debacle.

Its plainly obvious that Cap's shield was a prototype in the most earliest stages.

[Hobgoblin]

Hey just watched the first Iron Man and noticed the Roxxon Corp. building behind Iron Monger when he launches the missile at the bus. Does any one know if it is mentioned in IM2. In the comics it is responsible for many a super villain. Its a nice easter egg in the first one just curious if it pops in the 2nd one at all

Hm, I never noticed Roxxon being in the first film. I did notice that Roxxon had a racecar represented in Monaco. I thought that was a nice touch. Nice user name, btw. :cwink:

I must not have been paying attention when they showed the map of super human activity. I will have to watch the movie again. Darn. :csad: :D

[Superhero 101]

So did anyone pay attention if Chris Hemsworth was in the jail scene because the transition was like a flash from the camera?

[GoblinScrier]

Could the one place on the map that is in Europe be Dr. Doom's country of Latveria? I figure if Marvel can get Doom away from Fox and adapt him to be the incredible villain we all know him to be, he could easily fit into the larger universe....

[spiderguy252000]

I think my favorite one was def. the old 1940's Cap. comic book in the crate :cap:

[The Squirrel]

I heard that was orignally his cameo. No BS. and It looked a tad like hemsworth imo

It looked like they guy who end's up being Vanko's body replacement to me.

[LostSon88]

So did anyone pay attention if Chris Hemsworth was in the jail scene because the transition was like a flash from the camera?

I heard that was orignally his cameo. No BS. and It looked a tad like hemsworth imo

:doh:

Again I ask...why would Thor be locked up in a Moroccan prison? What possible explaination would they come up with to explain that situation? It makes no sense. And it definitely makes even less sense when you take into account the after credits scene in NEW MEXICO.

I understand people wanted to see Thor in IM2 but come on guys, you're really reaching here...

:dry:

Again I ask...why would Thor be locked up in a Moroccan prison? What possible explaination would they come up with to explain that situation? It makes no sense. And it definitely makes even less sense when you take into account the after credits scene in NEW MEXICO.

I understand people wanted to see Thor in IM2 but come on guys, you're really reaching here...

:dry:

It's not Thor. It's time some people stop bringing up that possibility.

Wasn't it just the guy that:

Hammer sent in to be Vanko's replacement in his cell?

[bullets]

It looked like they guy who end's up being Vanko's body replacement to me.


It was ..

[JerseyJoker]

Although its not really an Easter Egg, but i love the continues references to the Demon in the Bottle storyline.

Drunk Tony, him not really being fully able to operate his own suit with Rhody going out of his way to teach him a lesson and all of that.

Reason i love these movies so much, is that they hold a great balance of being made for the viewing audience and for the hardcore comic book fan base that gets all these little references. Plus it makes it great DVD/Blu-Ray films to watch and just pause and get these little Easter Eggs.

[Gamingboy]

Okay, just saw the movie this morning:
Not so much an easter egg as a reference, but Howard Stark's expos, and his penchant for explanatory videos of his world of tomorrow, is extremely similar to Walt Disney, his involvement with the World's Fair, his amusement parks and his original idea for Epcot.
Could anyone make out the headlines of the various papers and magazines that flashed by in the film?

[danoyse]

The Stark Expo films totally reminded me of the Walt Disney films about Disneyland and Epcot. The music at the Expo sounded like something you'd hear at Epcot too.

I caught the Culver University reference. And besides Cap's shield, I also saw a few Captain America comics among the stuff Tony was taking out of his dad's cast.

[Bubonic]

I wish 90% of the people posting in this thread bothered scouring through said thread before repeating easter eggs.

Seems like we've exhausted them anyways.

[Doctor Jones]

Anything in Howard Stark's case? I was looking for something like crazy.

[Spider-Vader]

Could the one place on the map that is in Europe be Dr. Doom's country of Latveria? I figure if Marvel can get Doom away from Fox and adapt him to be the incredible villain we all know him to be, he could easily fit into the larger universe....

Someone else in this thread said he saw something in Whiplash's stalker collection about a cosmic storm or the like. Could Marvel be getting the FF rights back!? :wow:

Iron Man vs Dr. Doom = Me seeing it 12 times in theaters.

[roach]

well if they were getting the rights back they cant make references to it until they do...I would say a no to Latveria...my guess would be Black Knight...seems to me that the map was showing potential Avengers....

[scatterax]

subscribe.

[phoenixflight]

I'm sure this was mentioned (I did not check through 6 pages) but it was great to see a Hulk reference:

Towards the end of the movie when Tony and Nick were at the SHIELD safehouse talking about his Black Widow's psych profile on Tony, the news brief on the television monitor was the female Asian reporter reporting about the Hulk incident at Culver University... they showed about 3 clips from that...

I thought that was really cool.

That would mean that based on the timeline when Tony appeared at the end of Incredible Hulk, the events that took place in Iron Man 2 had already occured...

[JerseyJoker]

But the events at the end of TIH did not happen right after the final fight either, it was basically interpreted that Banner finding control of his rage and the Stark/Ross meeting happened some time after the Hulk/Abomination fight.

[LostSon88]

When Banner presumably gains control of the Hulk, the screen reads "Days without Incident: 31" before his eyes go green.

So if TIH is happening roughly around the same time as IM2, then a month has passed since both the Whiplash/IM/WM AND Hulk/Abomination by the time Tony Stark goes to see General Ross.

[Iron_Man]

Not really, it looks plastic and is hanging together. In fact I don't think it was Cap's shield but was actually a prototype designed by Howard Stark.



Coulson picked it out of a box that consisted of Howard Stark's property, so I think it was just a prototype that Howard designed decades ago. Or at least that's what I'd hope is the situation because the look of the shield didn't impress me at all.

The only problem is that Coulson talks about the shield in awe as if it were the original shield that Cap used on the battlefield.


It didn't look plastic it looked tinny. Plus being a tad too small.

im just glad they are giving hulk references at all. this concretely means he will at least be in the avengers.

Captain America Comicbook

[Maximum Carnage]

I'm still trying to find what the latest news is with Mr. Norton/Hulk. Does anyone know?

[Parker Wayne]

Norton said its a matter of timing. If Marvel approaches him, he'll do it if his busy schedule allows him to.

[bullets]

Not getting Norton would be a huge mistake .

These aren't really easter eggs but I thought it was cool they used younger photos of Rourke and Downey Jr.

[Octoberist]

as much as i like Norton, out of the actors being chosen for the Avengers movie (him, RDJ, the two Chris(s)), I think he would be the most difficult to deal with.

[calcio_girl]

Ok I looked through this discussion and didn't see anyone mention this. IDK if it was just me, but i thought that at the end of the movie, like the scene right BEFORE the credits

that the photographer that jumps out to take a picture of Tony Stark looked vaguely familiar to Peter Parker

I've only seen this movie once (it was awesome), but that seemed to really jump out at me and I wanna know if anyone else thought the same so I don't sound crazy :awesome:

[Themanofbat]

Peter Parker?

Well... looks like I'll have to see it again... :yay:

[LightningFlash]

Now we're just tossing out ideas here.

So I saw Wolverine at the beginning at the Star Expo. He was trying to cheer on Tony when he landed in the stadium, but all you could hear was metal clanking against metal.

[roach]

little known easter eggs

1)The woman who lets Tony into Pepper's office to give her the strawberries is from the comics Bambi Arbogast(Tony's executive assistant from the comics).
2) Pepper calls down to Bert in legal......Bert Hindel- Former lawyer of Stark Enterprises. Fired after he failed to clear up the Government civil suits brought on during the Armor Wars. He also unsuccessfully defended Kathy Dare

[calcio_girl]

Now we're just tossing out ideas here.

So I saw Wolverine at the beginning at the Star Expo. He was trying to cheer on Tony when he landed in the stadium, but all you could hear was metal clanking against metal.

I know, my cousin gave me some crap too. I'm not trying to be all cool, and trying to make up crap about the movie. I just wanted to see if anyone else noticed it too. I just found it odd that one photographer jumps out and not the 20 others there.

Thanks for that though :)

[LightningFlash]

Because maybe, just maybe, having 21 photographers jump infront of the screen would've been quite too much while trying to show off the trio of the Senator, Tony and Rhodes in the screen as well.

[roach]

If Marvel tried to use the characters that the rights are at other studios or even allude to they could get sued

[calcio_girl]

But that was the thing, they didn't show those three. I don't know, what roach just said though makes sense. I forgot. Is the relaunch sony too?

[LightningFlash]

Uhh, yes...those three were in the middle of the screen when the movie went off. They had a photographer take a picture, and ended it by the "picture" of the three gents.

Plus Spider-Man shouldn't even be thought of for this group of Avengers. I had always imagine that there could be other generations of Avengers down the road, and Spider-Man could be in the second grouping with others like Luke Cage(if Marvel would ever get their acts straighten out and take the rights back from Sony. It's not like Sony's doing a stand-up job with Spidey, with having Spider-Man 3 a total cluster-**** and then canceling The Spectacular Spider-Man).

It would be just fantastic for a high-school Peter to admire the Avengers when he's in high school, and then becoming an Avenger later on. But, that's my idea I guess and it hasn't been thought of by the Marvel guys, et cetera.

*thinks about writing them a letter now*

[Ipodman]

So now someone saw Spider-man taking photos of Stark? lol

[LightningFlash]

And Galactus.

[roach]

*thinks about writing them a letter now*

I'd like to see a lot more classic avengers before we see Cage,Spidey and Wolverine.....Hawkeye, Pym, Wasp,Wonder man,Vision, Scarlet Witch,Quicksilver,Namor, Herc,She Hulk

[Ipodman]

When did "Peter parker" appear?... At the last scene where the badge gets pined on?

[LightningFlash]

I'd like to see a lot more classic avengers before we see Cage,Spidey and Wolverine.....Hawkeye, Pym, Wasp,Wonder man,Vision, Scarlet Witch(Fox),Quicksilver(Fox),Namor(Fox), Herc,She Hulk

I know they are rebooting the series, so there's no need to add something to my post.

But still, I don't want Sony to still have the rights as much as I want Fox to still have the rights to Daredevil, X-Men and Fantastic Four.

Hawkeye and the Pyms we will obviously see within this group of Avengers. And She-Hulk, I could care less about. Maybe with a Hulk sequel, well, mostly like threequel.

actually Namor was at universal when they were trying to do a Submariner movie...its no longer there and I assume back with Marvel

[LightningFlash]

Isn't Namor part of Fantastic Four though?

I believe Tim Story mentioned Namor when talking about Fantastic Four 3 since Dr. Doom was sent into the depths of the ocean at the end of RotSS.

[Ipodman]

Should be back with Marvel by now... its grouped together with the other "lesser known properties" like Dr Strange and Black Panther. Hopefully we get these movies after Avengers

[roach]

No Universal had the rights and was trying to get it off the ground. As of August 2009 Universal was still trying to push forward on the film....http://www.slashfilm.com/2009/08/12/namor-the-sub-mariner-movie-still-in-the-works/

Fiege was recently asked who owns what:
Feige: Well, Fox has mutants and Sony/Universal…Universal doesn’t have anything. Sony’s got Spidey and Ghostrider, and those family of characters. And Fox has X-Men and Fantastic Four and Daredevil and those family of characters. But any mutants in particular? Mutants are X-Men.

so if Namor wasnt a part of the mutant deal and was being made at Universal and they now no longer have athing then its a smart deduction that Marvel now has Namor.....another clue alluding to this was in IM2 when the map had a area of concern in the atlantic ocean

[LostSon88]

Spider Man is NOT in the film.
Thor is NOT in the film.

[sabetoonth]

wow, ive got lots to look for when i see the movie, and anyone making an actual map of approxamatly where the indicators were in the movie?

[bossman550]

DID you all read the iron man comicbook that was the movie counter part it says the shield was a protoype

[Team Andino]

How is it that there are people who don't understand that the Cap shield in IM2 was obviously a early prototype. It wasn't even finished an clearly very flimsy

[terry78]

I didn't realize the Bambi thing until someone on the board brought it up. I had forgotten about that character.

[weezerspider]

Didn't know where else to put this, but I've seen the movie multiple times and have yet to see Olivia Munn...

[LightningFlash]

Isn't she that reporter chick from the beginning who's reporting on Stark's appearance at Star Expo's opening?

And the shield is referred by Fav as "Captain America's shield", which brings confusion to most, but that doesn't mean it WAS Cap's shield back in WWII. It IS Cap's shield of course, but only a prototype, which Howard must have created to capture all of its fabrics(which is why it's in different layers), and was possibly trying to create a new one for a future Captain America(during the 70s, there were probably no discussions of searching for and/or re-awakening Rogers).

[Travesty]

Didn't know where else to put this, but I've seen the movie multiple times and have yet to see Olivia Munn...Hehe, she looks skinnier then normal, but she was in it. I don't know how you missed it, she was on for about 45-60 seconds. She looked pretty hot.:awesome:

Isn't she that reporter chick from the beginning who's reporting on Stark's appearance at Star Expo's opening?Yup, that's the scene.:cwink:

[Artistsean]

I think i read that it was established that the guy in the prison was Thor,
but I have a theory why he might be there.
Thor looses his hammer which you can see at the end of the movie, but there is no sign of him. Why? Because when he lost his hammer for too long, like in the comics, he lost his powers. So he was wondering the streets of Monaco with no money, no ID, no nothing, and ended up landing in prison. So then he was stuck in prison without his hammer, that is until Nick Fury and SHIELD find him and bring him onto the Avengers.

[LostSon88]

It wasn't Chris Hemsworth...ergo it WASN'T THOR.

:doh:

Seriously, c'mon now.

[protocida]

That's not Thor.

[sabetoonth]

is this the same guy who many thought was Whiplash sjut prior to the interrorgation/"Familt of theives and butchers" speech?

[Doctor Jones]

heh, you know with that scene, the thought came to mind that it could be Thor. I guess not.

Is it just me or in every comic book film fanboys think they see something that's not really there? Next we'll here we saw Scarlett Johanson's nipples.

[Team Andino]

Wait so nobody saw Reed Richards use that portal to stop Galactus in the background outside the Shield warehouse at the end?!?

[Spider-Vader]

If Marvel tried to use the characters that the rights are at other studios or even allude to they could get sued

Why should they be scared anymore? They got the Mouse backing them up now.

[roach]

[roach]

in the scene with the drones you'll notice one of the drones blowing up...that was Quicksilver but he was moving so fast you didnt see him

[VenomVsSpidey]

did anyone see deadpool teleport at the 2nd expo? cause i'm pretty sure I saw him....

[Parker Wayne]

If you look real close at the first person scenes in the beginning you'll see Wolverine talking to Heidi Klum to the right.

[Maximum Carnage]

Actually, if you look beyond Thor's hammer at the end, you can faintly see emo Peter Parker doing the jive on the mountain.

[sabetoonth]

now some poor bastard is going to look for all of these lol

[roach]

before the close up of Mjolnir there is a crater right next to it where Stormbreaker fell

[LightningFlash]

I believe when you see S.H.I.E.L.D.'s map where it highlights where certain individuals are located, there's a dot right next to what appears to be New York, which is Cloverfield's location. So, I guess that confirms that the military did not kill Clover.

[Maximum Carnage]

You called that monster Clover? LOL! That totally does not make it sound threatening.. :P

[roach]

well Death-Stomp-Crush-Chew was already taken

[Parker Wayne]

btw did anyone know Mystique was in the film? Take a guess which character she was? :woot:

thats an unfare question lol

[marcolanni]

I think we are going off track a little!

I heard someone mention a namor easter eggs right about the time they enter the oracle building...not seen the movie since so might be something to look out for.........apparently there are a few references to namor

[roach]

at the race the second racer is named Chapman from Great Britain...Joey Chapman was the third Union Jack

[sabetoonth]

really? or is this one of those, "Peter Parker jumping out" easter eggs? lol

[roach]

its an actual one


here's a fake one...the license plate number in the new mexico scene is the password to Peter Parker's facebook account

[terry78]

I wasn't looking at the movie that ****ing close, so if somebody wants to create a list, knock yourself out.

[roach]

i went over the movie with a fine toothed comb...or black fisted pick if your ethnic like me

[WormyT]

When I saw it the second time I made sure I had my camera ready for any Easter eggs. My friend told me there were some surprises during the court room. I didn't believe him until I took this photo.

[calcio_girl]

Wow, I'm really not as crazy as I sound. I watched the movie again since you all like to make fun of that fact that I thought it was peter.

At the end of the movie at during the scene where they were pinning Tony and Rhodes, the senator, tony, and rhodes turn around and get ready for a picture. The camera then movies towards the audience and ONE PHOTOGRAPHER WHOSE HAIR JUST SEEMED TO RESEMBLE THE PETER PARKER HAIR came out and snapped the picture. The camera then goes back on the Senator Tony and Rhodes. END OF MOVIE

Anyone wanna go back and look??? Go ahead. It was just curious. I'm not saying i saw some random superhero in the background. I thought it was odd.

[roach]

Dont take this the wrong way but I got tired of argueing with ppl who will every wednesday go to a store to read about superheroes doing outrageous things but the minute someone wants to do a movie then all that creativity and wonderment goes out the window.
We are getting a universe that includes Hulk and Thor but Namor appearing in Cap is unbelievable. Arnim Zola is cast and everyone thinks he should be a normal human ad not bear his striking look from the comics.

[Figs]

That's right! I'll wait to see how it plays out but it sounds accurate to those times when they would send entertainers out to give the soldiers some enjoyment and motivation. I don't think Cap is going to be dancing like some kind of showgirl.

hmm, he'll probably be lifting heavy stuff and doing flips and tricks like some circus guy to demonstrate his powers. Cap will probably feel humiliated and angry that they aren't putting him in the action and forcing him to do that instead. this could actually be good for his character story if they do it right. but I'm just guessing how it might go. lol

Q: What’s your favorite Easter Egg that I wouldn’t notice in the film?

Justin Theroux: I would say, Coulson.

Q: Agent Coulson? Hmmmm… What does that mean?

Justin Theroux: I can’t say. It’s an Easter egg. <laugh>

[terry78]

Actually it might be better if he does enjoy what he's doing to an extent, because he's doing his duty, but he secretly wants in on the action. He shouldn't openly be like, "I hate being in this damn USO!"

I never really liked Thor, to be completely honest. I hope they make the movie bearable to all of us non-super-fans.. x_X

So, I don't know if anyone posted these yet, but Iron Man 2 might be hinting towards Namor, and to a lesser extent, Union Jack.

Oh yeah!!! I can't believe I was the first to post it, I feel special :awesome:

[Maximum Carnage]

Lol. Yup, I've never seen it. :P

what is the USO?

The United Service Organizations Inc. (USO) is a private, nonprofit organization that provides morale and recreational services to members of the U.S. military, with programs in 140 centers worldwide. Since 1941, it has worked in partnership with the Department of Defense (DOD), and has provided support and entertainment to U.S. armed forces, relying heavily on private contributions and on funds, goods, and services from DOD. Although congressionally chartered, it is not a government agency.

During World War II, the USO became the G.I.'s "home away from home," and began a tradition of entertaining the troops that continues today. Involvement in the USO was one of the many ways in which the nation had come together to support the war effort, with nearly 1.5 million Americans having volunteered their services in some way. After it was disbanded in 1947, it was revived in 1950 for the Korean War, after which it also provided peacetime services. During the Vietnam War, USOs were sometimes located in combat zones.

The organization became particularly famous for its live performances called Camp Shows, through which the entertainment industry helped boost the morale of its servicemen and women. Hollywood in general was eager to show its patriotism, and lots of big names joined the ranks of USO entertainers. They entertained in military bases both at home and overseas, often placing their own lives in danger by traveling or performing under hazardous conditions - some losing their lives.

During the 1990s it delivered services to 5 million active duty service members and their families and today "continues to be a touch of home to America's troops."

more references having just read Demon in a bottle:
The first time we see Justin Hammer in the comics...Monaco(where the race took place)
At that time Hammer hires a bunch of costumed villains to attack IM among them is Whiplash.

[TheVileOne]

I might be surprised, but Cap performing in USO shows sounds like a silly and campy idea.

[roach]

I am not a fan of the idea either...it shows the shortsightedness of the government and opens itself to making fun of the Kirby suit

Interesting find. I knew the map with Namor's location, but the Oracle find is very interesting.

[roach]

well there is an actual company called Oracle that is one of the movies sponsors

[Beanjuice]

Has anyone posted this or seen this recently??

Near the bottom of the interview


Hmm that one is interesting.


I saw IM2 again last night and noticed caps shield...in a second place. When tony shows up to Hammer's presentation, the large graphic playing on the screen in the back has stars and red, white,and blue streams flying in circles. Its real quick,but at one point a star flies through the middle, just as the colors line up,and it looks like caps shield. Thought it was neat. Also,Did anyone catch Fin Fang Foom on the billboard in the beginning? I missed it both times.

[IronMan_MarkV]

Anyone else see Ant-Man slapping around the Wasp in the corner for most of the film?

[King Kong]

[roach]

Madame Hydra was behind him

[Parker Wayne]

I swore I saw Nova in the courtroom too.

[roach]

[scatterax]

ya. ant man was in the entire movie. he was just really small in every shot so nobody on screen or in the audience could see or interact with him. but he was there. he's like the ultimate easter egg. in everyshot but u can't find him no matter how hard you look. kinda like the invisible woman in ironman 1.

[Parker Wayne]

He's easier to find than Mystique :cwink: She was in many scenes as a different person. Wanna take a guess to who she was? :woot:

[roach]
