my first true step into the marvel universe and i am SO IMPRESSED! i loved watching iron man and i cannot wait to continue in the MCU! thanks friends for watching!
I think you'll really like Tony's character arc and journey in the MCU. Robert is amazing.
no worries I'm sure nobody will judge you...
You have to pay close attention to all the details in marvel movies
Bc there will be a lot of easter eggs in each movies
Or you can check out new rockstars youtuber channel for there marvel movie break down
Wow. I just stumbled upon your channel. I’m very excited for you to experience the masterpiece of the MCU. Definitely subbed 😊
Also fun fact: Tony eating cheese burgers is actually a call back to one of Robert Downy Jr's road to rehab. When he was younger in his acting career, Robert got into a lot of drugs and went to a pretty dark place. One time he went to Burger King and said that the burger was so disgusting, it actually gave him a moment of clarity. In that moment he decided to clean himself up. From there I think he threw his drugs into the trash or the ocean (I forget) and then checked himself into a rehab clinic.
Also it wasn’t that the burger was disgusting, it was a burger that he normally liked. But he realized at that moment that his drug addiction had gotten so bad that he couldn’t even enjoy a burger.
@@Sinnathan Thanks for clearing this up!
I was just about to comment this. Glad someone pointed it out. 👌🏻
aw wait that's amazing!
Also Fun Fact: RDJ was an animal in the '90s, literally waking up in bushes. His agent had to catch him with a butterfly net.
My head-canon is whenever Tony meets Yinson again in the afterlife, the first thing he tells him is he didn't waste it.
The story of the first Iron Man suit is pretty much as it was originally, down to Yinsen's fate. It's merely been updated from Vietnam War era (around when Iron Man made his first comic appearance) to the Gulf War era. And Yinsen isn't a killer and doesn't want to be. He's buying time, but he doesn't want to take life. Yinsen: the first big hero in the Iron Man story.
Also, Burger King is awesome. If I've just made it out of a near death experience nobody better come at me with McDonald's cos there'll be hell to pay. And while 5 guys is good, I don't want a burger that is that messy when I've only got one fully functional arm and I'm wearing a suit.
And the brilliance begins. 😀 Only, what? 20 or so more to go? 😀 Looking forward to seeing more reactions from you.
"I am Iron Man". The phrase that sparked an incredible universe that I grew up in. I'm so thankful that I grew up during this and was able to experience these in the theaters.
For me, that incredible universe ended with that phrase as well.
@@jkr4732 I am right there with you
Metallic dude is better
@@ripp3rjak934 I am alloy man.
Giving Robert the role of Ironman might be the best decision Marvel has ever made for the Mcu. As Robert has said before,"there is no Marvel Cinematic Universe without him"
Considering that decision and how good RDJ was and how good Iron Man came to be in the MCU, it's really funny that when Sony got first dibs at what Marvel characters they wanted, they only picked Spider-Man thinking he was the only one worthwhile. What a flub that turned out to be.
Also Scarlett as Black Widow, I just can't picture any other actress in that role. Yelena don't even come close
@@evilhellmusic8038 Yep. Really miss them. And the new ones are not really replacing them.
Nowadays we realize that he was absolutely right
@@ParallaxusWell Spiderman makes more for Disney than any other character from merchandise and video games alone so they weren't really wrong
I felt personally attacked when you said you didn't believe after the whole kidnapping, that he just wanted Burger King burgers.
Fun fact: Iron Man was once thought to be a failed Marvel movie, but in fact it is a legend :)
If MySpace was the worst thing you worried about being caught by your parents browsing... Sweet summer child!
Great reaction, welcome to the MCU!
I've always liked the little touch at the press conference, where after his reveal, everyone stands up shouting, except the one woman who didn't believe his "official" story.
Fun fact:The guy playing Happy Hogan(Jon Favreau)is the director of the movie and also the creator of The Mandalorian TV series!
fun fact: in comics for a very long time even big avengers hid their true identity, like tony. The two biggest avengers are iron man and captain america but tony only revealed his identity to him in avengers #216, and only decades later in 2002 did tony reveal to the public that he is iron man (the character was created in 1963). So the movies improved a lot on his character as you can see at the end of the movie. His popularity wasn't on the level of spiderman, fantastic four or x-men, but this movie made ironman one of the best characters.
The balding engineer that Obadiah yelled at is played by Peter Billingsly, who as a boy played the central character in the movie, "A Christmas Story."
And he made a return in the future.
Lol The Jimmy Neutron reference was peak laughs xD "hes like, Gotta blast" lol
Something to look out for. Tony Stark’s friend Rhodey (the guy in the Air Force) is recast from Iron Man 2 onwards. He ends up being played by Don Cheadle.
Hulk/Bruce Banner is also recast after the Incredible Hulk movie onwards.
"We were just having a good time, talking about myspace and gang signs." LOL This is my first time watching one of your reaction videos and your commentary had me cracking up. If you continue on watching the rest of the MCU movies, you will definitely see Tony's character arc swing much more toward the better.
Welcome to the MCU, Emme! It's gonna be a long journey ahead for you. :)
1. Remember to watch the films by *Release Order* since you are first timers, I presume. That means after Iron Man 1, it's the Incredible Hulk, Iron Man 2, etc. Chronological/Timeline Order is recommended mostly for experienced viewers.
2. Remember to watch every credits scene after each film. :)
3. Keep an eye out for Stan Lee cameos.
4. Enjoy the wild ride ahead.
What he said ?
I watched the films by the order of the timeline so Captain America: The First Avenger, Captain Marvel, Iron Man, etc. I personally Enjoyed it watching it like that but that's just me.
@@TheHomieMC1 You do you, but Release Order matters more since you have credits scenes that spoil a lot.
@@blackpowderuser373 Yeah now that you mention it, you're 100% right. I remember watching the Captain Marvel end credit scene and being super confused lol, later on, I figured out it correlated to Infinity War.
Yep, there is no reason to watch MCU movies in anything but Release Order unless you have already seen them all. Even then I never found that Chronological added anything at all the the viewing experience.
One of the best things they did when starting the MCU was beginning with Ironman. Because his technology is his power, it is the easiest to suspend disbelief for. By the time magic and space enter the equation, it's much easier to swallow.
Interesting. I think you're right, which makes the Sony and Fox deals actually a blessing in disguise because if they would have had the movie rights, they probably would have begun with Spidey or maybe the X-men. I think you're right that it is good that they didn't.
"Please don't get arrested."
Damn... Never heard a CZcamsr say that to me before. You just earned my sub 🤣
Yenson didn't want to kill anyone and so he shot at the roof. He said he wanted to see his family and he knew they were dead, so all he needed was a good time to checkout.
I just love Obie's "wat" reaction to the icing problem. That scene also really demonstrated that there are certain advantages to Tony's recklessness. If he wasn't so aggressively pushing boundaries and trying stupid things because he can, he never would have discovered the problem.
I'm sure people will bring this up (didn't see it yet) but that first iron man suit that looks so different was a throwback to when iron man first appeared in comics. That's how his suit originally looked in the early 60's.
This is where the fun begins 🔥🔥🔥🔥
I love the comics & the MCU is so much more clever than most people give it credit for. They give original stories with classic characters, they get the characters right (mostly lol), but they also add many nods back to the comics. So even if you are a true comic fan you never 100% know what to expect. Just one example, in the comics Iron Mans identity wasn't known, but he was always showing up, the cover story, so Tony could keep his identity secret, was that Iron Man was Tony's bodyguard. These sorts of things, references, nods, twists run through the MCU, welcome to the MCU marathon lol
One thing I liked was that the evolution of the suit mirrored the comics.
Fun trivia, the scientist getting yelled at by Obadiah who says "I'm not Tony Stark" is played by Peter Billingsley, best known for his role as Ralphie in A Christmas Story.
That is such a fun piece of trivia that it still blows my mind. hahahaha
13:15 Yinsen chased after them because he knew Tony needed more time. The three men ran from Yinsen because they heard an automatic weapon being fired towards them and they had no cover. These guys are most likely more focused on keeping themselves alive than neutralizing their target and who knows how much training they had. Also, they knew they had backup behind them.
"Woah! That was unexpected! We were just having a good time talking about gang signs and MySpace."
LOL that was brilliantly funny
Also, just wanted to share as someone who grew up in the '70s and '80s reading Marvel comics how exciting it was to see this movie for the first time in the theater will no clue about the MCU that was to follow it. I was never a huge Iron Man fan in the comics so I really wasn't expecting much and was completely blown away by how great this was. But then in the post credits scene saying they were going to be putting together the Avengers, it seemed so huge, nothing like that had ever been done before. It was very exciting as they then started announcing the plans for the MCU and we were left wondering how they were going to pull all this off.
Welcome to the Marvel Cinematic Universe!
Deadpool falls under the Xmen umbrella which previously belonged to Fox studios and was eventually bought by Disney. So yes, Deadpool is now MCU but he has yet to be formally introduced. Deadpool 3 is expected to be his first MCU movie though you never know, we may see him show up in some form sooner than that.
I love it when someone new discovers the awesome Marvel Cinematic Universe.
I bet Terrence Howard hears that 'Next time, baby' in his nightmares
I’m so excited for you to get into the mcu! Thanks for uploading emme, glad to be in your first 10k subscribers woot woot!
Without this movie we wouldn't have the MCU that we have today because Robert Downey Jr. is perfect for the role as Tony Stark aka The Invincible Ironman and he does have the look of the character from the comics while looking badass in the armor, Awesome reaction Emme.
If Tom Cruise got the role you wouldn’t be saying this
Nick Fury is played by Samuel L Jackson who also played Mace windo
Tony’s motto in life: “solving the problem that was created because of us.”
Modern tanks typically require one person to drive, another to operate the cannon, and still a third person to load. Maybe Pepper could have crawled around inside the tank to the different stations to do all three jobs at once, but it would not have been very easy.
“I wonder what happened to Tony’s father”.
Stay tuned and you’ll find out in 20 movies 😂
Emme, I’ve been loving all of your reactions and am so excited for you to be starting the MCU. As many other commenters have noted Deadpool is not officially in the MCU despite now being owned by Disney but Spider-Man is part of the MCU although those movies are not on Disney+. Since I assume you’re watching these on D+ you’ll need to find another way to watch the Spider-Man movies and there are plenty of lists to tell you where they fit in release order. Can’t wait for your reactions!
all the spidermans are now on disney+ :D
@@aspenture1087 I just checked, they aren't on my D+.
@@jabecker21 thats weird. They’ve all been on mine now. Maybe it’s only in some countries for some unknown reason? Unless they removed them again.
@@aspenture1087 I'm in the US.
@@jabecker21 australia.
"I don't know why they ran from him to begin with" Well you see most people don't run directly at a man who is screaming and shooting an assault rifle wildly.
The Mk I suit (the one he built in the cave) is the precursor to the Iron Monger suit that Obi builds. The Mk II flight suit is destined to be the War Machine armor (hinted at when Rhodey looks at it and says "Next time, baby"). The Mk III suit up sequence in this film is likely the BEST in all of cinema, it's so badass, gives the suit a real presence and how it's not just some cheap little gimmick armor or something, it's ARMOR.
Yay! I love watching newbies enter the MCU for the first time. Loads of entertaining content. "Welcome to the Circus."
The Ten Rings leader you described as super, super in charge is played by Faran Tahir, who also played a starship captain in Star Trek(2009).
I remember seeing this one in theaters back in the day... it was amazing then, and it still holds up. And yeah, we had no idea what was in store for us. And that whole "I am Iron Man" and its echo throughout the series... it is just amazing.
It always hits me how the entire MCU ends before it begins if not for Yinsen. His saving Tony's life set everything else in motion and, of course, that's important 20+ films from now.
Fury, Phil, Thor, Carol, Bruce, Natasha, Clint, T'chala, Peter, Drax, Rocket, Nebula, Gamora, Mantis, all the Eternals, Hank, Janet, Bill, Isiah, Sam, Bucky, and Steve already happened before this. The MCU would be different without Yinsen, but it wouldn't end.
@DragonbIaze052 what? Iron man was the first mcu movie lmao
@@LimitlessEntertainment826 First movie, but not even close to the first hero. Tony in no way "set everything in motion". I just listed 31 heroes who in no way were set in motion by Iron Man.
@DragonbIaze052 Iron man was the first mcu movie and was extremely successful. So yes it set the mcu in motion. Idk what your talking about, if it's comics or time line wise.
@@LimitlessEntertainment826 Maybe you aren't reading the first post. "It always hits me how the entire MCU ends before it begins if not for Yinsen. His saving Tony's life set everything else in motion"
In-universe, Tony Stark barely set anything in motion. His only net contributions are negative since almost every villain he defeats is one he helped create, and hundreds of people were hurt by those villains.
The best Marvel movie ever! I still remember when I got this movie as a birthday gift.
I can't believe I missed this before! So much fun.
Iron Man looks like a ballerina because in the MCU he uses both his glove & boot thrusters to fly & steer. In the comics he usually just had boot thrusters, but maybe they decided that was relatively unrealistic.
As you saw, he discovered the fact that his glove thrusters could also be used as weapons.
... You suffer from a misconception; weapons don't make wars. It's the other way around. Also the movie is very misleading about US arms exports; they're very stringently controlled, especially high tech stuff. That's why Congress was hesitant to allow Israel to buy the F-22. They were concerned that the Russians & Chinese might gain access to the tech.
BTW, Obadiah did the arguable moral thing with that injunction. It wasn't clear, But Stark Enterprises is publicly owned, so the CEO and board of directors have a financial responsibility to the stockholders. Note that the share values dropped over 40% after Tony's announcement. That's money out of the pockets of the stockholders.
Obadiah had nothing to do with Tony's parents death. You'll eventually find out what happened.
... Don't know if you caught the joke when Rhodey complained about Tony being late for the flight: "I got caught doing a piece for Vanity Fair."
Tony starts out as irresponsible playboy, but his character arc spans 10 years.
5:30 so it wasn't right right after. It wasn't the same missles he fired in the presentation. Just some of his own stuff that was "stolen" from him. But completely different missiles. Because I think the truck scene where he was with the military was actually supposed to be like hours after the weapons presentation. :)
I loved this reaction. The attention to detail , the humor..., just for remembering the LG Chocolate phone deserves a like.
Imagine watching the MCU, clone wars and arcane for the 1st time again. Good shows
Oh this is going to be so much fun, I’m here for your journey. I haven’t seen the first Iron Man in years, forgot just how good it was. Pretty much set the tone for all of phase 1, can’t wait for the next reaction. 😄
Great reaction! Also, I love the BEAGLE. I watched this with my beagle, Lucy.
First rule of being a superhero. You can't be a hero without losing a mentor
"Oh, so he is allready making a new prototype suit.... Or maybe it will be the final one?!" LOL
Let's go, I always love seeing people jump into these movies from the beginning!
Superhero movies did used to generally stink, but Iron Man caught everyone off guard. It was like a lightbulb went off in movie exec's heads that it was possible to make them well.
Don Cheadle’s rhoades grew on me over time, but Terrance Howard was literally perfect in the role. I swear, in iron man 2, I actually thought rhoades didn’t like Tony at all 😂
You may have already answered your question why Pepper wouldn't use the tank: she is not trained in it and a tank operates very different from other vehicles. Driving it would be a problem on its own and to use the gun, you would need another person (tank crews usually consist of 4-5 people, all with very specific roles - see "Fury" for example. But you definitely need a driver and a gunner). At best it would be a somewhat safe hiding spot, but there is no guarantee that Obidiah's suit wouldn't be able to destroy it (it's got missiles and stuff).
thanks for your comment! i obviously don't know anything about tanks and tons of people have said that she can't use it by herself but have not explained why, and your description was super detailed so thank you! i had no idea that it would require both a driver and a gunner i was really thinking she could just run in there and use the gun LOL
Also given that it's outside the Stark Industries building (arms manufacturer), I always assumed it was a display piece only at that point (with most of the onboard systems disabled/removed).
@@bwiedor Good point. The military wouldn't let Tony have a fully functional tank.
Fun fact for Obadiah Stane, his super villain name is Iron Monger.
Your Infinity War reaction popped in my feed, so I decided to watch yours from the beginning. Dont worry about living under a rock with the MCU. I watched Iron Man 1 when it first came out because I saw a tv advert for it as a kid and asked my mom. I had no idea outside of that one advert about the MCU, I only knew about a sequel for it and watched that too then didn't watch another one until around 1.5-2 years ago. I just binged all of them in order to catch up. Granted I was like 8 at the time, but that doesn't excuse that I actively decided not to "right" my wrong by watching the MCU knowing full well that Iron Man 1 started it at the age of 22.
"We were just having a good time talking about Gang Signs and Myspace."
That is how most violence usually started back in the day.
I never read the story but in the early eighties there was the whole Demon in a Bottle story line in the comics where Tony Stark was dealing with his alcoholism. The first issue of that storyline we see stark looking at his reflection, in the mirror, without his helmet but wearing his armor, looking like absolute hell with a bottle of liquor sitting visibly in front of him
OH, the BURGER KING AD! Always the toughest suspension of disbelief pill to swallow when you KNOW he'd go to In n' Out. Double-Double with everything. COME ON!
"What are you doing bro?"
Welcome to the Tony Stark experience. You're in for a wild ride
Yes!!! You’re gonna love it!!! Please upload as fast as possible! I love watching people’s reactions to the MCU movies!
I’m so excited for your MCU journey Emme!!
i love how yt automatically recommends me people that just started their marvel journey, the one thing their algorithm does right lol
Congratulations Emme on your first step. I really enjoyed your Moon Knight reactions; great observations and insights. I suspect you're really going to enjoy this journey. 3 things I'm sure other have mentioned: 1) watch in release order, 2) watch for Stan lee cameo; 3) watch the mid and aftercredits scenes.
"cool jerk" is literally how you describe tony stark 👌😂
If Marvel likes money, it's time for an "Iron Man and the Iron Friend" comic. It sounds wholesome.
For some reason that outro was pretty good.. 😂 "stay hydrated, stretch your legs, don't get arrested"
You don't seem to realize he was captive for months and he was eating their idea of food.
I love the fact it was the Burger King thing that finally exceeded your suspension of disbelief after previous mountain of implausibility :)
that casual "oh, he's dying." killed me
One of us! One of us! One of us! Welcome to the MCU.
This is just the start of one of the best character redemption story arcs in movie history. Enjoy the ride, and remember the cheeseburgers.
Btw, you were right in two ways at the end. Tony didn't stick to the script because ROBERT DOWNEY didn't stick to the script. He thought
it would be cool to just say "I AM Iron Man." and it worked so perfectly, Jon Favreau kept it in. Nobody knew how important this improv'd
line would be later on...
Great reaction, Emme!
I literally just found your channel today and watched all of your Moon Knight reactions, which were also great. I can't wait to see your reaction to the rest of the MCU. You've got a lot of great films and surprises ahead in this series.
Well you went and done it! Now I get to relive this experience with another reaction channel! Yay! Have fun!
I don't know if anyone's said already, but that's Samuel L. Jackson in the post credit scene, playing Nick Fury. He plays Mace Windu in Star Wars (leads the Jedi Council with Yoda).
Emme: it's a Palpatine paralysis. PP for short.
Me: like the video, subscribe.
Don't know why I found that so funny, but I did.
ikr
Love the vids, super genuine and great editing😩👌🏼
One small step to a very big journey. I think you're going to have a blast with a lot of these films. My personal favorite Avenger is Captain America.
Trivia...the suit up sequence when Tony gets armored up for his intervention at Gulmira was licensed, move for move, from Blizzard Games who used it in a very populat teaser trailer for Starcraft 2. The same armor-up sequence has not, so dar as I recall, ever been used twice. Its different each time we see it on camera.
Is there a source for that?
I commend the fact you've hardly been in the MCU for this long but fun fact when Obadiah said we're iron mongers, that was his supervillain name in the comics the Iron Monger, hope you enjoy the MCU on your journey 👍👍👍
if i remember or is a mistake, the story about eat burger it was not original in the iron man they add it for addition to the story.
Robert Downey Jr.'s [ actor for tony ] his habits for stop his addiction. The actor often brings his own food to set and hides it so he can eat during different scenes. so they made Tony Stark's have a craving for cheeseburgers.
He does have character growth its over the whole MCU
Super excited to follow your journey ❤️
Ahaha okay that was funny...at the end..."please don't get arrested" 🤣
Emme, I'm glad we're both on the same page about the use of Burger King 😂
If I had been in the desert for a long while and I eventually came back home, Burger King would be the last thing I'd want for my first meal since.
Hahaha! 25:15 "Tony Stark should know that he looks like my brother..." Best comment. Funny reaction. Welcome to the MCU - It is an amazing ride!
The arc reactor is like a feat in human engineering you really don’t understand how powerful it is he has enough energy in that tiny arc reactor in his chest to power a city and the reason it’s so ground breaking is it’s an impossible build it’s a self sustaining clean energy source meaning most machines use energy to operate and this one uses its own energy and doesn’t lose energetic over time actually makes more and more the only thing keeping it from killing Jim’s is that it has a constant drain because it’s also an electromagnet keeping the shrapnel from entering his heart and killing him
It’s extremely overkill to make that his power source keeping him alive it’s like connecting a nuclear bomb to home security system
Cant stop watching your videos, 05:46 am...
Really should get some sleep lol
Also, happy new years everyone!
Letsss gooooo 💜💜 can’t wait to see you react to all the movies
13:50 No, the bullet ricocheted off the suit, bouncing back and hitting the shooter.
Due to ownership of properties through the years, Deadpool and X-Men movies you see on D+ are not part of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, but when Disney bought Fox, they got the rights to broadcast the Marvel Comics properties that had been owned by that studio. That said, Deadpool 3 and future X-Men products will be part of the MCU. Confusing, I know LOL
I would definitely get burger king immediately if I was in captivity for months 😂 I won't stand for buger king disses
The MCU is SO different. Each movie you say "It's a ___________ movie, but with superheroes". Fill in the blank with one of the following: Heist, Spy, Monster, Space Fantasy, Shakespeare, WWII, Swords and Sorcery, Martial Arts, Comedy and so on....
Amazing!! Your channel is going to skyrocket! I am glad I will be an early subscriber.
Yensen turns out to be "the most important" character in the marvel story line. without him tony wouldnt have been here
And he gives potentially the most important line as well, (which got glossed over in this reaction) "Don't waste your life."
Gotta love gen z'ers watching old mcu movies for the first time lol
I honestly can't stomach this many insults directed at Tony Stark in a row.
12:53 Yinsen is a doctor, and by his own beliefs, does not wish to harm or kill anyone, even if they're terrorists. That's why he's just scaring them away
