This movie is still one of my favorite MCU films. It's also nice to look back on how this crazy and awesome Cinematic Universe kicked off.
@DeepDiveNR it's thanks to the success and Brilliance of this film that we managed to explore even more incredible stories in the Marvel Universe. It's crazy to think that the Guardians of the Galaxy wouldn't have been a Trilogy that existed without the success of Iron Man.
same here
Man this gave me nightmares after watching because I was already traumatized by 9/11 as a child. I wasn’t able to appreciate it until I was a teen.
When I 1st watched this movie, I really didn't like it. However, I've rewatched it numerous times and the more I watch it, the more I love it.
Proof?
This is a gem. I actually loved the start of the MCU. What makes this iconic is the pure storytelling that was a tapestry that was carefully weaved together to become Avengers Endgame. Nowadays, it’s quantity over quality for me with the MCU, and no focus on the tapestry but rather a spiderweb where they’re hoping everything just sticks
You're really cranking out the goods lately Erik, thanks for all your hard work!
What makes this movie stand out to me is how it’s either extremely noisy or pin-drop quiet with no real in between (in terms of both its sound design and soundtrack). I feel like this first film really captures who tony was; a loud flashy genius with an introspective side that could drown out the rest of the “noise” about life. I love how those choices make the movie feel a little ASMR in that way ❤
Iron Man is special to me because I took my two sons, 12 and 10 at the time, to see it in 2008, and we have seen every Marvel movie together since. Today, my oldest packed up a truck and moved to Denver. Not sure how that impacts our tradition. But what a great ride we've had!
I love how Tony continued to revamp his tech every time he found a flaw, forever working to be better and stronger. He was dedicated to being the best hero he could be from beginning to end.❤
Iron Man: "I don't believe it"
Yoda: "That is why you fail"
Why you fail, this is.
Your explanation about the sound used to tell the story was really amazing. I have a new perspective and love for the movie now.
The biggest blooper is still that Pepper removes the electro magnet that's keeping Tony alive. The arc reactor, fair enough that's just a power source, but the electromagnet gets removed and never replaced, so the new arc reactor is powering nothing and those metal fragments are heading towards his heart.
some people say there is an electromagnet built into the new arc reactor, in which case why does the cable need to be plugged in.
But if this was the case then later after obidiah takes his new reactor, Tony uses his old one that woulsnt have the built in electromagnet.
No, the biggest blooper is a hole that deep in his chest would be directly fatal due to the actual HOLE IN THE CHEST , lol, and also because even if it hadnt deflated one lung and severed the oesophagus (thus breathing is impossible) his ribs will no longer be able to move or move enough to breath in the first place. The magnet is the least of the issues.
So this proves that Robert Downey Jr. should deserve his Oscar nomination for Oppenheimer & see him beyond than Man with an Iron heart
he did get an oscar for his absolutely insanely brilliant performance in tropic thunder for the same year the first iron man was released, what an actor! look forward to what new stuff he will do, and yeah he did really great in oppenheimer as well
Your last line of this video really nailed it. Heart. That's what the MCU (and really all of the Disney-acquired properties) is missing more than anything right now.
Iron Man is the best MCU movie period. I recall taking my son to the theater to see it. It was definitely awesome on the big screen. As a teenager I loved the Iron Man comics because he is just a man, no actual super powers beyond his armor, gadgets and intelligence. Marvel's counter to Batman. BTW, love Batman too.
Me when I watch a deep dive video before Erik uploads it
I swear I watched this last night
I think that one of my favorite things about the Iron Man armor is the Heads Up Display.
Just the fact that there’s SO MUCH STUFF in it show how smart Tony is to be able to understand all of it.
We see RDJ’s head in that black void a lot throughout the MCU, and while I can’t remember every person who has had that black void, the shot shown here: 25:40 just looks way too zoomed out. I’m not saying it looks bad, but seeing the contrast of the first HUD shot to one of the most recent is a little jarring.
Iron Man/Tony Stark will forever be my favorite MCU character. He is the heart of the MCU which is why now it seems to be floundering without him. RDJ didn’t have to go that hard but he did and I’m so grateful. Love this analysis and breakdown!
Reposting the video. Thought we wont notice, but we did!
It's incredible the movie from the guy who made Elf sparked a 30+ movie franchise... 🤯
He'll always be the guy who spent $50k at the "ring designer" to me.
RDJ has got to be one of the best feel good hollywood moments. The thing I like most about cinema ironman is just RDJs portrayal. There will never be another ironman who was both figure and actor in tune.
Tony's line about fear vs. respect also mirrors Caligula's (not the most quotable guy) line: "Let them hate me so long as they fear me".
I think the secret was what Jeff Bridges said - it had the soul of a student film. The creators hammering out the day's shoot in the trailer on the day. Solving problems and generating the themes and plot on the fly.
The MCU now feels like it is run by committee. Plays it safe, even when it tries to push the envelope. That's because there is no feeling of risk. Even something like Moon Knight was planned to go for that aesthetic - didn't grow organically.
Of course taking these risks means you will likely have some real bombs in there. And I know people are investing serious money into these IP. But that is the blueprint. To throw the blue print away. Get someone with a vision and some talent, let them struggle a bit, and see what comes out of it.
Unfortunate you had to reupload this it's such a banger💪
The first Iron Man will always be one of the best marvel movies ever made. Such a fun and iconic movie. I watched it over and over as a kid and more than holds up today.
The deep dive on this one is as good as the movie, so very rewatchable ! 😂
@@DeepDiveNR Don’t make yourself smaller than you are ! You guys rock 👌
I always thought of Tony and Steve being Step brothers because Howard is technically the father of both of them.
This deep dive was amazing. Not only did you take a titular movie from the past (has it really been 15 years?, damn), but you also pointed out underlying themes and crossovers that I had previously not noticed...MAKING AN AMAZING MOVIE, EVEN MORE ENTERTAINING. Wish I could go larger with the caps to show my appreciation for the amount of information and just plain cool elements that you were able to hilight. Thank you so much for putting this together. Think I'll be watching RDJ in Ironman, again, this weekend.
The film that kicked it all off. The MCU is the house that Downey Jr. built.
I love his movie, and honestly love the sequels. What they did with Iron Man blew my mind. And it was GLORIOUS to see RDJ rise to take this character on and make him amazing.
You’re doing such a great job with these. They just keep getting better. Thank you, and keep them coming!
28:56 the sound and that scene with the superhero landing are still to this day some of the best bits of the MCU! To the point that when he lands in the vibranium facility in AoU I was like ooo there it is 👌🏽 chef’s kiss
Love your Deep Dive Señor Voss 🥳 To me, this movie has that magic that sparked it all and not all MCU titles have. The sound, visual and artistic elements hold up the test of time. It’s something I feel I’d show my kids some day as a classic film through this era I happen to see evolve. When I question the reason I love the genre, Iron Man and The Dark Night are definitely my favorite films to rewatch.
what made iron man iconic for me is the suit. i’m obsessed with the suit up scenes and i’ll be mad if we don’t get at least 2 suit up scenes in “Armor Wars”
*Honestly i wouldn't have imagined anyone better other than Robert Downey jr doing this Iron Man role.. He's hands down thee best actor ever to undertake and execute this role so brilliantly perfect, this role in itself actually suits him, like it was made for him hehe.. With his excellent acting skills and prowess, he really brought this character to life like no other.. Imo no other actor would've been able to get this Iron Man character justice, he's simply made for it period.. He has what it takes in him, that aura and all, to portrait all the various characteristics of Tony Stark, being the Billionaire, the low key Playboy, one which really does look to be blessed with intelligence, Philanthropist and last but not least, to be badazz enough to do the iron man role within the suit in itself hehe..* 🤗😁😎😎
I've always loved the theme music for this movie. Ramin Djawadi (who did GoT) with Tom Morello on guitar - amazing. It's still my favourite MCU theme, even though I prefer Cap and Spider-Man as heroes.
Robert would be on my top ten list of people to meet I think. I've had struggles and he got through them in style. He's probably a pretty chill dude
22:19 Detail here : Aircraft flight control surfaces concept was inserted in the armor design. To scientifically explain how he can "steer" the flight.
I think what makes Iron Man so great is: he's human - he's relatable. He has flaws, he has no superpowers. Granted most of us aren't crazy wealthy and brilliant like Stark, but I see the same thing with Batman.
Didn't u upload this yesterday?
Reupload?
"That's how dad did it, that's how America does it"
That line always made me laugh 😂
The Tony Stark and the Pepper chemistry is the best.
Could add that Tony's initial tests and crash landings of the MK II echo The Greatest American Hero
What an amazing episode. Erik Voss could geek out for hours and I’d watch every second of it
This is a great MCU Movie to watch! Great Breakdown Erik! 👍
Great video as always! Thank you for continuing to make amazing content!
Why the repost?
id like to point out that tony's "the bad guys wont even want to come out of their caves" line serves to show us how he's grown in both bravery and compassion. when he leaves the cave he's not a villain or even a narcissist anymore and he's willing to stand up against the weapons anymore.
When Ironman was released, it took me so long to finally decide to go see it. Never did I realize that this movie will start a Studio that run Hollywood
"Big man in a suit of armour, Take that off, what are you?"
.
"Genius billionaire playboy philanthropist"
Vossman!!! You are amazing. I love the Deep Dive. I’m a diehard Ironman fan from comics, collectibles, and even the arc reactor on my chest. But I grew up with RDJ and his movies and I watched his downfall. I was beyond excited a to see him play one of my favorite comic book characters. I will watch it again tonight after seeing this deep dive. It was amazing. Much love.
Dude! You totally major league rock with your deep dives!!! Each movie is enriched by them ! ❤
For me personally, it's still the best MCU movie out there. I've been rewatching it countless times and still have fun every single time.
Wow, i never noticed that Obidiah was playing Salieri on the piano. Good catch, Erik!! 🎼
REUPLOAD YES
So glad we have this movie, because everything that follows is amazing, The Avengers being iconic in bringing all these heroes together
RDJ's performance is what makes it iconic for me as well as Favreau's smart direction, brimming with laughs.
If it wasn't for this video, I would have missed all those super small details. Makes me respect the movie even more.
As always, you and your team are amazing!
Such an amazing Deep Dive!!! You just connected every single dot (and ping)! Now I gotta go do a rewatch!!
THANKS for this, Erik Voss!!!
Amazing deep dive, great work!!!
my favorite deep dive so far!!
I do enjoy Iron Man 1 quite a bit. The box of scraps line is probably the most iconic line for me.
What makes Ironman so iconic is because it's relatable. Sure Tony Stark is a playboy, millionaire, philanthropist; but he is not infallible. We see him fail and struggle time and time again. Even in the final fight, Ironman isn't the one that defeats Iron Monger; it's Pepper coming to the Rescue again. It's a realization that no matter how much he wants to do this alone, he can't.
Also, it's the subtleness of the entire movie as you pointed out. It's the hammer pings throughout that tie the entire movie together without the viewer realizing it. It's the callbacks from the climax to earlier scenes. The entire movie is connected and has weight. No part of the movie is meaningless or wasted. The production team/director/producers put so much thought into the storytelling aspect of the movie. They truly wanted to tell a story and built a masterpiece. Now I feel like studios are trying to repeated the masterpiece without starting with the story.
Setting that tone in I.M.1 REALLY just raised the bar for superhero films in general and I too love RDJ in that role. This initial journey really does mirror RDJ's life up to that point sand i love that they call this fact out in I.M.2.
You nailed it with the Ping and Sound design. Looking back I recall enjoying this in theatre because of the sound.
As the mark one walks out, it sounds low-tech, heavy, a walking tank that we saw Tony put together practically; with inner workings to control and lift the weight.
That was a great video Eric truly from the heart
Being an engineer, Tony Stark the Iron Man inspires me. RDJ is the same age as me, how his real life experience plays into this on screen character is incredible. While the world may look at him as a snob and show off, he is actually a real genius to solving problems. For that he has all the bragging rights. I am in the media engineering industry in Singapore for more than 30 years, I too believe that I can solve most engineering technical problems and often able to be prepared ahead of the problems. I call myself the Iron TomCat ( the Iron Man of the media engineering world), because I believe that anyone who can be at the cutting edge of what they do, they have become the giants / titans in their field with all the bragging rights.
My daughters and interns (who are about the age) often challenged me in many of the problems they face, I therefore, put the challenge back to them to solve it or even predict the outcome of the situations it presents but placing a wager that who ever come up with a better alternative gets a reward along with the bragging rights of beating the Iron TomCat. So far, no one has bettered me. Am I bragging or am I actually good at what I do? I think Tony Stark was right when he declared who he really is, IRON MAN.
Well done!!, I love this!!!👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Another great video Erik.
Phenomenal breakdown!! Thank you New Rockstars and Eric Voss
I always LOVED the effects one Tony when the shrapnel wounds start to bleed I really miss the MCU that used a lot of practical effects
Great video man!! Like the summer blockbuster’s u should do one in may and call it “may marvels” and do a deep dive into the big marvel releases in may each week of the month
I knew nothing of superheroes or comics until I watched this when I was a kid. It's one of my favorite movies ever, and it sent me down a never-ending but amazing road. Iron man will always be my favorite, and RDJ is the MCU. This was an amazing breakdown. I've watched this movie a hundred times, and there's still a dozen new things I learned about it. Well done 👏
This is such an amazing video
What made ironman iconic is that at least in the MCU he wasn't given powers, he had to build his way up to go toe to toe with gods and aliens. We got to see his failures and how he patched in the subsequent movies.
Regardless that’s it’s a reupload, I’m watching and liking it again ❤
Absolutely brilliant!! Superb critique. Bravo!!*❤
Love this channel!
I was in the middle of watching this when it stopped suddenly. Now I know why
What makes Iron Man iconic is Pepper Potts. The character, Pepper, is the best depiction of the strong female character. She is flawed, she is a little bit unbalanced, but she grows into the strong and confident character due to her dedication to her cause, her ability to see the truth of the reality around her, and her ability to speak with confidence regardless of the situation. I can't stand the real person playing Petter, but the writers created her to be my favorite character of all the movies.
What he film started is amazing looking back on the film now! It was revolutionary and at the perfect time!
Some say that 2008's Iron Man was the beginning of the MCU. I say that 2000's X-Men started the MCU. Bryan Singer was the first director to present these fantastic characters in a real world scenario. He one-upped the earlier Superman movies in a big way. He paved the way for Iron Man and those that would follow.
All six original Avengers fall into Erik’s three categories; Clint and Steve are soldiers, Tony and Bruce are engineers, and Thor and Natasha are royals (in the comics, Natasha is stated to be a surviving member of the Romanoff royal family. AKA related to Anastasia.)
Iron Man made it in my book for a few major reasons.
1.) We had ZERO expectations, and we would have been happy if it just wasn't a campy movie like the 90's Batman movies. Remember, at this time, Dark Knight hadn't released yet, and as good as Batman Begins was, the true style of that trilogy wasn't cemented in place yet u til after Dark Knight released.
2.) This was not only a rebirth for Marvel, but a redemption story for the Actor Robert Downey Junior. Many of us felt like who better than to play a Billionaire, Smart-assed, Play Boy... Than a Millionaire, Smart Assed Play boy like RDJ. Who better to have a deserving come back as not only a Hero like Iron Man, but a Hero in his own life, and in the eyes of many of his fans. To see him not just come back, but to explode back onto the scene with such greatness meant he had overcome his legal woes finally, and surely beat his addictions, and who doesn't love a comeback story? This was a comeback for RDJ as much as for Marvel, and we had plenty to connect too as the fans/viewers!
I have other reasons as well, but these were the main 2 reasons I could think of at the moment without this turning into a full blown article, lol.
Really good video!
I love all you deep dives! I recently researched gladiator and would love to see your input on it.
That steph curry no look shot was the best 10 seconds of cinema that year
Eric, you're the best. Keep 'em coming.
Nice vid
You pinged it right on the mask. Nuance was a big reason Iron Man rocked.
Even on the deep dive there is still no mention of the fact that Tony is already drinking the "green drink" that is supposed to slow the palladium poisoning that is a plot line in Iron Man 2.
This is Deep Dive redefined. EXCELLENT presentation 👏
*I'm Tony Stark and I approve this video*
Marvel took a risk on RDJ, And he was the right choice at the right time
This deep dive was absolutely amazing Mr Voss wow.....Will we be getting the rest of the mcu 😊🎉
*And wow, this guy really didn't left any stones unturned for he uncovered and showcased each and every details there could possibly be for this movie right here hehe.. He did a really great job at delivering appropriateness here, at times even overdid it, with including details that were very much in depth and kinda unnecessary to go at such lengths.. Well for some they might actually find it interesting to know but in general it was not that needed to indulge into stuffs that profound, deviating our interest from the main interesting and much needed stuffs.. Like i mean all the little extra details were pretty much far fetched, wasn't that necessary for him to include in this video, which for many it would be of no interest for their knowledge.. But all in all, he did a marvelous job here which I'm actually really amazed and impressed that he put in all of his time, energy and efforts, really did tons of hard works into researching all of these details to their cores hehe.. Totally wrapping everything there was to be known, even some added informations, to absolutely cover the entirety of this movie in whole..* 👏👏
I always thought Ralphie was a Favreau collaborator from Elf
Wow! Very well done!
For me it was the awesome iron man theme they had in the film that was never used again. Had they re used it in end game that would have been epic. It was in the end credits of iron man 1, very endearing.
Two things: when Pepper talks about 'trash', it's not the press, it's the fact the reporter slept with Tony,
And secondly, when Tony talks about using the weapon once, like "that's how dad did it, that's how America did it..." It wasn't talking about Captain America, he was talking about the Atomic Bomb
