Corrected entry: When Stark tests his boots in the lab, they do not leave burn marks on his cars as he hovers above them. The heat generated is enough to cause red-hot embers to spew across the floor, so they should create significant damage to the cars.
Corrected entry: Why would Obadiah Stane keep the video message of the 'terrorist' demanding more money for killing Tony Stark? If he wanted the company, just give them the extra money they requested to kill him and be done with it.
Corrected entry: In the scene where Pepper is in Tony's office downloading the data from the ghost drive, she sees the plans for Obadiah's suit under the heading, 'Sector 16'. Later, however, in the scene where she is in the Stark building with the S.H.I.E.L.D. agents attempting to arrest Obadiah, she says they are looking for 'Section 16'. When they finally find the door, it even says 'Section 16' on it, as opposed to 'Sector 16', as it was labeled in the file.
Correction: Already submitted and corrected.
Corrected entry: Towards the end of the film, when Tony's army friend takes out the Audi instead of the used Iron Man suit, the Audi is, at the same time, being used by Pepper - as in the next shot she is arriving at Stark Industries.
Correction: Pepper has her own car.
Corrected entry: The first time he flies and lands on the roof, he goes through the bedroom, living room, then the garage. Then, later when he goes to save Pepper, he flies directly through the roof out of his garage.
Correction: The first time they show him going through the bedroom, living room, then the garage. Later they show him going through the the roof, then cut to him exiting the garage. They just didn't show the other rooms to save time. There's no point: it's already been shown, we know where he passes through on his way out.
Corrected entry: In the scene when Tony is brought outside by his captors to inventory what is available to build the rocket, he is seen carrying the car battery in between his right arm and the side of his torso. Tony Stark was never known to have superhuman strength, and he was in a very weakened condition as it is. There is no way that a person of his size would be able to carry a battery that large in such a manner without struggling to support it, even with two hands.
Correction: You don't need to be 'superhuman' to be able to carry a car battery! And seeing as Stark has a vested interest to carry it otherwise he dies, thats plenty of incentive to be able to carry it.
Corrected entry: The insignia for a Lt. Colonel in the Air Force is an eagle. However, when Rhodes is wearing his dress blues, the insignia on his shoulder lapels is an oak leaf cluster, which denotes a Major.
Correction: No it's not, the "full bird" Eagle badge refers to a Colonel, the rank above Lt. Colonel. The insignia for a Lt.Col is a silver oak leaf cluster, gold leaves denote Major ranks. Rhodes' insignia is correct.
Corrected entry: In the scene where Stark/Iron Man gets off the plane after escaping capture and talks to his assistant (forgot her name), his beard looks as though it has been shaved since his time in that cave where he builds his first Iron Man suit and escapes. Either he carries a shaver with him, or there's one on the plane.
Correction: Clearly time will have passed. Stark will have been debriefed by the military about his experiences, he'll have been checked over medically, they didn't just pull him out of the desert, chuck him in the back of a plane and send him home. There's been plenty of time for Stark to find a shaver, particularly as, given that he'll know that he's facing a press conference when he returns, he'll want to try and clean himself up a little.
Corrected entry: In The scene right after Pepper changes Tony's "heart," you can see right through him.
Corrected entry: In the US Military control room one of the men says something about having an "A-Whack" in the area. What he means is an AWACS. AWACS is an acronym that stands for Airborne Early Warning and Control and is never called "A-Whack".
Correction: As the submitter himself chose not to include the word that 'S' stands for, he has disproved his own claim that it is "never" called "AWAC". Even the Air Force finds AWAC acceptable enough to put on their uniforms (See: http://www.strategic-air-command.com/patches/command/552awac.gif)
Corrected entry: Tony Stark is seen with a LG VX9400, a phone only available on Verizon's network and not a world phone. He also seen having a video conference call with Obadiah Stane, but this is not possible because the phone does not have this feature and the camera is on the other side of the phone. For phone: http://us.lge.com/products/model/detail/mobilephones_selectbycarrier_verizon_VX9400.jhtml For service: http://b2b.vzw.com/international/Global_Phone/Middle_East/Afghanistan.html.
Correction: Stark is a genius with unlimited wealth. It would be easy for him to obtain one of these phones and modify it to do many things. For all we know the only thing original about the phone is the case.
Corrected entry: In the scene where Iron Man is shot down by the tank he emerges from the crater and stands to face the tank, at which point the tank fires a second round at him. You can see the smoke trail of the round as he dodges it, but the round just keeps flying into thin air. Given the trajectory and velocity of the smoke trail the round should have immediately struck an object behind Iron Man, a building or structure perhaps? The ground even, but if you listen carefully the round flies by Iron Man and there is complete silence, no explosion behind Iron Man whatsoever.
Correction: Iron Man is standing in the main "street" of the town, with nothing in the path behind him. There were no buildings or cars behind him, so the missile simply flew straight out into the desert.
Corrected entry: In the scene when Obediah approaches the Middle-Eastern villain and makes him act stunned, the scar on the side of the villain's head is redder than it was in previous scenes.
Correction: The device Obediah uses causes the "villain's" veins to bulge all over his face. This would likely cause his wounds to swell and begin bleeding/seeping.
Corrected entry: When Iron Man tells the refugees, "He's all yours," his voice is robotic like. But later in the film, when he faces off against Jeff Bridges, his voice is normal and not disguised at all.
Correction: When talking to the refugees he disguises his voice through the computer because he doesn't want anyone to know who he is. Jeff Bridges' character already knows who he is so there's no need for it.
Corrected entry: After facing the silver robot, Tony Stark is lying on the roof of his building as his heart electromagnet is flickering on and off due to low power. In the next scene, Tony Stark is fine. However, he needs the magnet to survive. There are only two in existence; the one dying in his chest and the one in the incinerated machine below. Since Tony Stark is the only one who seems to know how to build a new one, and since neither is available to keep him alive, how is he apparently just fine in the next scene with a working heart machine?
Correction: In that scene, the electromagnet is completely off at the start. It then begins to flicker back to life, and at the end of the scene is shown pretty much back on again. It's supposed to show that he had a pretty close call, but pulled through. He could easily survive the 1-2 seconds where the magnet is completely off (as shown earlier where his advanced power supply gets stolen).
Corrected entry: Tony's driver is named Hoagie, as a reference to Happy Hogan, who saved Tony's life in the comics, and became his chauffeur.
Correction: This isn't a "reference"; it's the same character, even listed in the credits.
Corrected entry: The car battery's connection to the electronmagnet in Tony's chest changes appearance several times, from being one wire, to two, and in some cases there's no wire visible at all.
Correction: There are always two wires. In some scenes the wires are not easily seen but they're always there.
Corrected entry: Towards the end of the flashback that occurs in the beginning of the movie, Tony is taking a video conference call. The LG logo to the left of the screen disappears at the end of the call.
Correction: The phone used was a LG VX9400 slide phone. The screen slides up and flips. The logo moves from the left to the bottom of the screen when it closes.
Corrected entry: When the two planes are flying beside Iron Man he uses the boosters on the palm of his hand but never moves his hand.
Correction: More than likely, he has alternative means of controlling them other than his hand movements, as he would want to keep himself as aerodynamic as possible during flight, and moving his hands around could throw him off.
Corrected entry: When Tony first crash-lands in the desert after escaping from his captives, there should have been a crater formed from landing with such a velocity.
Correction: He crashed in sand. Sand has a tendency to fill in holes when they are made. This would include craters.
Correction: No, they're repulsors (a fictional technology, as discussed as part of the Jericho missile system) that don't generate heat. The sparks are from the repulsor system, not heating. This is consistent with how all other repulsors are demonstrated (e.g. the ones in his gauntlets).
