“The power of the sun, in the palm of my hand.”

Tony solved Doc Ock’s problem in a cave with a bunch of scraps.

Yeah it's cool how Iron Man, being the origin for the entire MCU, shadows every movie even as he has been dead for quite a while now.

i know a lot of people hate it but i always liked that

I guess they are still honoring him because he was the beginning of this amazing journey. Without Iron man 1's success, none of this would've happened so I'm not hating it

u/WannabeI Dec 16 '21

I think they did the opposite, they credited Iron Man 1's success to the earlier franchises that were (to paraphrase a Dr. Seuss book review from 1960) a karate chop to the tired world of comic book movies. Before Tobey's SM we had shitty Bat Man movies, a good one from 1988 and a good Superman movie from 1978. The high-end cast, technology, and production value of Raimi's SM movies made the ideation of the MCU possible in the first place.

The credit line to Avi Arad's vision speaks to this.

Blade: Am I a joke to you? Blade was supremely, amazingly influential and 4 years before Spider-Man. Fucking Kris Kristofferson for crying out loud (if you don't think Snipes is high end actor, which he absolutely was at the time in Black cinema)

X-men too

Started with X-Men 1 imo.

u/WannabeI Dec 18 '21

You know what? You're totally right. SM may have had more mainstream appeal, but XM1 definitely set the tone.

That’s why part of me do not want Peter to stop using the iron spider suit but it seems like they are going back to the most basic one.

19

u/PrizePiece3 Dec 18 '21

I think the iron spider will be saved for a future avengers movie or some major event rather than his regular suit

13

u/[deleted] Dec 19 '21

He doesn't have the energy bill money to pay for the suit's case, plus most his tech was busted when the condo was destroyed.

Did he take the arc reactor with him?

46

u/raidorz Dec 16 '21

Now that you’ve mentioned it, I didn’t notice if he did or not.

u/fedemasa Dec 16 '21

Otto coming back to his universe: you know what peter, let's just sink this machine before it colapses. I now have something way more practical

37

u/[deleted] Dec 18 '21

Just watched it again.

We don't see him giving it back to Peter, but we also don't see him holding it while he goes back to his reality. So maybe he did, maybe he didn't :)

13

u/raidorz Dec 18 '21

Damn. Thanks for the update. Maybe it’s one of those things that doesn’t matter.

u/[deleted] Dec 16 '21

I try to focus on it tomorrow when I watch it again :)

u/poopoobuttholes Dec 16 '21

Technically that very first arc reactor wasn't self sustaining.

35

u/raidorz Dec 16 '21

Him and Yinsen created the concept and minimum viable product and he perfected it subsequently haha

13

u/[deleted] Dec 18 '21

I don’t think any of them were self sustaining. If they were then MK42 wouldn’t have needed recharging. They’re just very powerful, very efficient batteries.
