  ABOUT AVENGERS: INFINITY WAR The Avengers and their allies must be willing to sacrifice all in an attempt to defeat the powerful Thanos before his blitz of devastation and ruin puts an end to the universe. AIR DATE & NETWORK FOR AVENGERS: INFINITY WAR April 27, 2018 | Theatrical Release CAST & CREW OF AVENGERS: INFINITY WAR Directors: Anthony Russo, Joe Russo Writers: Christopher Markus, Stephen McFeely, Stan Lee Cast: Robert Downey Jr. as Tony Stark/Iron Man Chris Hemsworth as Thor Mark Ruffalo as Bruce Banner/The Hulk Chris Evans as Steve Rogers/Captain America Scarlett Johansson as Natasha Romanoff/Black Widow Don Cheadle as James Rhodes/War Machine Benedict Cumberbatch as Doctor Strange Tom Holland as Peter Parker/Spider-Man Chadwick Boseman as T'Challa/Black Panther Zoe Saldaña as Gamora Karen Gillan as Nebula Tom Hiddleston as Loki Paul Bettany as Vision Elizabeth Olsen as Wanda Maximoff/Scarlet Witch Anthony Mackie as Sam Wilson/Falcon Sebastian Stan as Bucky Barnes/Winter Soldier BRAN'S MOVIE SYNOPSIS So, they get right to it. Bad boy Thanos gets an infinity stone, the Power Stone. His play is to get all six Infinity Stones and wipe out half of all life in the universe.  His first stop is the ship carrying the surviving people of Asgard. Thanos easily overwhelms the remaining Asgardians, beats up Hulk, and steals the Space Stone from Loki's Tesseract. He then kills Loki. Thanos then destroys the ship and continues his hunt. Edris Elba helps make sure that Hulk returns to earth, where he crashes through the New York Sanctum. Back as Bruce, He warns Doctor Stephen Strange and Wong that Thanos is coming.  Tony Stark joins the conversation. Before he can call Steve Rogers to get the band back together, they attack the city to claim the Time Stone from Strange. Spider-Man is pulled into the chaos, and after they captures Strange aboard his spaceship, Stark and Peter Parker secretly hitch a ride into space to rescue him while Wong remains behind to defend the Sanctum. Meanwhile, the Guardians of the Galaxy answer a distress signal and save Thor floating in space. They agree they need to work together to stop Thanos. But they're too late. Thanos already possesses the Reality Stone and uses its power to manipulate everything around them. He captures Gamora after learning she knows the location of the Soul Stone. Desperate to save her adopted sister Nebula from torture, Gamora tells him where the stone is .  When they get there, the keeper of the Soul Stone, one Red Skull, reveals the price required to obtain it: the sacrifice of someone truly loved. In one of the film's most tragic moments, Thanos throws Gamora to her death, earning the Soul Stone. Vision and Wanda are ambushed in Scotland by Proxima Midnight and Corvus Glaive, who attempt to rip the Mind Stone from Vision's forehead. Captain America, Black Widow, and Falcon arrive just in time to save them, bringing the wounded Vision back to the Avengers Compound. Vision urges Wanda to destroy the Mind Stone and kill him if necessary to stop Thanos, but she cannot bring herself to do it. Instead, the team heads to Wakanda, believing Shuri may be able to safely remove the stone without sacrificing Vision's life. Iron Man, Spider-Man, and Doctor Strange end up on Titan and come face to face with Star-Lord, Drax, and Mantis and they realize they're in the same team.  Using the Time Stone, Strange studies millions of possible futures and discovers only one path where they succeed. Together they execute an elaborate plan to restrain Thanos and remove the Infinity Gauntlet. For a moment, it almost works—until Nebula reveals that Gamora is dead. Overcome with grief and rage, Star-Lord attacks Thanos, ruining the team's hold on him. Thanos breaks free, defeats everyone, and nearly kills Iron Man. To save Tony's life, Doctor Strange willingly surrenders the Time Stone, despite knowing how dangerous it is. In Wakanda, the Avengers prepare for an all-out invasion from Thanos's army. Bruce Banner, unable to transform into Hulk, enters battle wearing the Hulkbuster armor. The tide finally turns when Thor arrives in spectacular fashion alongside Rocket and Groot, tearing through Thanos's army with his fresh new hammer/ax combo, Stormbreaker. Despite their efforts, Thanos himself eventually reaches Vision. Wanda heartbreakingly destroys the Mind Stone—and Vision with it—just before Thanos can claim it. But using the Time Stone, Thanos reverses time, restores Vision briefly to life, and violently tears the stone from his forehead, killing him again. With all six Infinity Stones finally united, the Infinity Gauntlet is complete. Thor attacks and buries Stormbreaker deep into Thanos's chest, but Thanos coldly tells him he “should have gone for the head.” He snaps his fingers and vanishes. Across the universe, half of all life immediately turns to dust. Bucky Barnes, Black Panther, Groot, Scarlet Witch, Falcon, Doctor Strange, Spider-Man, Star-Lord, Drax, and Mantis all fade away. On Earth, Nick Fury manages to send a desperate signal from a mysterious pager moments before he too disappears. The survivors are left shattered and defeated. Tony Stark and Nebula are stranded on Titan. The remaining Avengers stand in stunned silence in Wakanda. And somewhere far away, Thanos sits alone on a quiet planet, watching the sunrise over a universe he believes he has finally “saved.” Watch the show on Youtube - www.deckthehallmark.com/youtubeInterested in advertising on the show?

Rob Lee dials in from Ukraine for a long-form WarTalk on what the front line actually looks like in year four — where infantry sit underground for six months without seeing the sun, where 2% of casualties come from small arms, and where the "forward line of troops" has been quietly replaced by a forward line of UAV teams. Rob Lee is a senior fellow at the Foreign Policy Research Institute and one of the most-read analysts of the Russia-Ukraine war; he's joined on the show by WarTalk regulars Bryan Clark, Tony Stark, and Justin. We discuss… The six-month infantry rotation and what isolation, drone threat, and zero-line resupply do to a human being Why Ukraine has reclaimed the drone edge — and what the Hornet, Bumblebee, and FP2 are doing to Russian logistics Ukraine's new corps structure, where the brigade-only model broke down, and what the Azov-derived elite corps look like Why 2% of Ukrainian casualties come from small arms and what infantry are actually doing on the zero line Starlink as the indispensable game-changer — and Russia's increasingly serious attempt to jam it Combat casualty care when CASEVAC takes 12 hours, the golden hour is dead, and tourniquets sit on for a month What the Marine Corps should steal from Ukraine — pushing Hornets to the battalion, Bumblebees to the company, and giving up something to make room this ep's a little too dark for a suno song Learn more about your ad choices.

The provided source is a transcript of a live stream titled "Infinite Plane, Saturn Day," hosted by a speaker who deconstructs contemporary events through the lens of media fakery, psychological operations (psyops), and "concurrent programming."The following key themes summarize the discussion:The speaker highlights what they call "concurrent programming," where fictional media reflects real-world events simultaneously to create an echo chamber. A primary example is the unveiling of a golden Trump statue, which coincided with an episode of the show The Boys featuring a golden statue of the Trump-esque character, Homelander. The speaker argues these are not coincidences but evidence of a pre-planned script where reality is augmented with fiction.The transcript explores the idea that world leaders are composite characters or archetypes rather than independent individuals. Trump is analyzed as a "reincarnation of Apollo," wearing the "god form" of a sun deity with his golden hair and towers. Similarly, Elon Musk is described as an amalgamation of figures like Wernher von Braun, Tony Stark, and Henry Ford, serving as an active participant in the "theater of Cywar."A central premise is that society is living through a "meta script" written years ago. The speaker claims that national news cycles and "fake events" are coordinated focal points designed to distract and entrain the public. This system relies on systemic gaslighting, where people are conditioned to ignore patterns or dismiss them as mere "coincidences." The speaker compares this to the "synths" in Westworld whose programming prevents them from seeing contradictions in their reality.The speaker critiques both mainstream news consumers ("normies") and the "truther" community. They suggest that many truthers have merely traded one form of mind control for another, becoming "alt NPCs" who follow pre-planted subplots known as "conspiracy theories." The goal of the "Infinite Plane Society" (IPS) is to move to an "off-world stage" perspective that is entirely independent of these mainstream and alternative narratives.The discussion touches on esoteric concepts such as the "Demon Star" (Algol) and its supposed connection to the Trump head wound event. The speaker also references the work of Robert Anton Wilson, specifically the "number 23" and the "Dog Star" (Sirius) as triggers for consciousness evolution. Finally, the speaker recounts their personal history joining the Freemasons and the Scottish Rite, describing the rituals as a form of "stagecraft" or "the craft" rooted in theater.Concurrent Programming and Media SymbolsDeconstruction of Public FiguresThe Architecture of the Meta ScriptThe "Alt Cult" and Off-World StageEsotericism and Personal History

The White House says the war is over. The White House also says it's continuing in a new form. Two weeks after the launch of Project Freedom, only two Maersk ships took the offer.

The Pentagon is leaking to the press that America doesn't have the missiles to win a war over Taiwan — and the Iran war is the reason why. Meanwhile, a Special Forces master sergeant is looking at federal charges for a $400,000 Polymarket bet on the Maduro regime, and SecNav John Phelan spent an hour sitting in the West Wing lobby waiting to get fired.

What's the real reason some sales managers keep struggling to build high-performing teams? In this eye-opening episode of the Millionaire Car Salesman Podcast, Sean V. Bradley and LA Williams III pull back the curtain on a costly mistake happening inside dealerships every single day! "Training is like bathing. If you don't do it every day, eventually you'll start to stink." - LA Williams III With sharp insight, real talk, and a few uncomfortable truths, they challenge the way sales managers think about leadership, performance, and accountability. This conversation digs into what may be quietly sabotaging your team's success and why ignoring it could be costing you more than you realize. "Even McDonald's has training. Do you understand me? Even McDonald's has training!" - Sean V. Bradley If you're a dealer, GSM, or sales leader serious about leveling up your people and your results, this is an episode you do not want to miss! Key Takeaways: ✅Training Necessity: Proper training is essential for sales managers to adequately prepare and support their teams, akin to how other professions require rigorous education and practice. ✅Technology in Training: Leveraging AI technology for training can profoundly affect the quality and effectiveness of sales team preparation. ✅Holistic Approach: Successful training involves a diverse curriculum, including product knowledge, sales techniques, KPI understanding, and time management. ✅Role-Playing and Repetition: Active training through role-play and real-world scenarios is crucial for developing genuine competency in sales positions. ✅Accountability and Consistency: Consistent training with accountability structures in place ensures continuous professional development and operational excellence in dealerships.   About Sean V. Bradley Sean V. Bradley is a renowned figure in the automotive training industry with nearly three decades of experience. He is the President of Dealer Synergy and a highly sought-after speaker in the field. Sean is known for his expertise in automotive sales training and digital marketing, having worked with various levels of the industry, from OEM to dealer groups and individual dealerships. He is the creator of the Millionaire Car Salesman podcast and the Bradley On Demand training platform!    About LA Williams LA Williams III is the Vice President of Dealer Synergy and co-creator of the Millionaire Car Salesman podcast. Known as "The Blind Master," LA is a unique figure in the training landscape, offering a strong background in sales training and an extensive history in the music industry, working with top artists like Beyoncé and NAS. He brings a creative and motivational angle to automotive training!   The Automotive Training Revolution: Unleashing Potential in Car Salesmanship Key Takeaways: Effective training is paramount to success; it requires repetition and the right resources. Role-playing, especially with AI, can significantly enhance training outcomes. Accountability and engagement from management are vital to ensure successful use of training programs.   The Importance of Training in the Automotive Industry In the fiercely competitive automotive industry, training is not a luxury but a fundamental necessity. Sean V. Bradley, in a passionate discussion with LA Williams, underscores the critical importance of comprehensive training for automotive professionals. "How dare you call yourself a manager when you don't properly prepare your team," he asserts, emphasizing the negligence of some managers towards training investment. The neglect of structured training programs is likened to an absurd hypothetical where surgeons bypass medical school. Bradley challenges the notion by equating a lack of training to sending someone without credentials to build a multimillion-dollar property. Even McDonald's, as he notes, has Hamburger University for proper employee training. It's evident that a successful car sales team hinges on effective and holistic preparation. Training should not merely cover sales techniques or product knowledge but should also encompass aspects like personal development, time management, and the use of technology. Harnessing AI in Automotive Sales Training As technology evolves, incorporating AI into training programs is a game-changer. Bradley introduces the AI role-playing tool developed by Dealer Synergy, which integrates years of accumulated company knowledge. This AI platform enables sales professionals to practice real-life scenarios, enhancing their ability to handle clients effectively. "Use AI like Tony Stark from Iron Man uses the suit," Bradley recommends, encouraging dealers to leverage AI for training and role-playing. This technology offers an unprecedented opportunity for repeated practice without the fatigue human trainers may experience. The AI assesses trainees through various metrics like tone, speed, and filler words, offering detailed feedback and opportunities for improvement. Beyond just role-playing real scenarios, AI ensures that learning is dynamic and tailored to each individual's progress, creating a more immersive and effective training experience. Accountability in Training Programs The success of any training program is hinged not only on the resources available but also on the accountability mechanisms in place. As LA Williams points out, the absence of accountability can render the most robust programs ineffective. "Training is disrespected not only in the dealership but in the entire industry," he notes, highlighting a systemic issue where the pursuit of excellence is often traded for complacency. Effective managers ensure that cameras are on during training sessions, facilitating active participation and making sure distractions are minimized. This mirrors real-life sales interactions where engagement and focus are critical. Bradley firmly believes that "winners love accountability," and this spans to every aspect of their work environment. Systems like the Watchdog Report in the Bradley On Demand platform track engagement and performance, providing a window into how training is progressing. This transparency ensures that managers can address any issues that arise, reinforcing the importance of constant learning and self-improvement in the salesforce. Creating a Culture of Continuous Learning In today's rapidly changing automotive landscape, embracing a culture of continuous learning is not just beneficial but crucial. Bradley advocates for the nurturing of an environment where sales professionals are encouraged to constantly evolve, stay informed, and upskill. This goes beyond just knowing the latest sales tactics or vehicle specs; it's about understanding the broader ecosystem of automotive sales, which includes digital marketing, personal branding, and leveraging new technologies like AI. In his own words, Bradley states, "Training doesn't happen by binge-watching videos." True learning involves immersive engagement, critical thinking, and practical application of skills. For dealerships, this means fostering an ethos of learning from the top down, reducing attrition, improving job satisfaction, and ultimately driving higher sales. Implementing such change requires buy-in from all levels of staff, ensuring that training programs are not seen as chores but as investments in individual and organizational growth. By prioritizing training and development, automotive businesses can remain competitive and innovate within their market spaces. In addressing the industry's complexities, it's evident that the automotive sales domain is ripe for a shift in how professionals are prepared and developed. Training, powered by modern technology and a robust accountability framework, stands as the foundation upon which future success will be built. Embracing this can herald a new era in car salesmanship, marked by efficiency, knowledge, and profitability.     Resources + Our Proud Sponsors:   ➼ The Millionaire Car Salesman Facebook Group: Join the #1 Automotive Sales Mastermind Facebook Group with over 29,000 automotive professionals worldwide.

This episode originally aired July 22, 2025 The spotlight has certainly taken its toll on Robert Downey Jr. over the years. But much like his beloved MCU character Tony Stark, there's an undeniably powerful force inside Robert that keeps him pushing forward. When we sat down over iced coffees, we found ourselves unpacking the fraught relationship Robert had with his father — the experimental, countercultural filmmaker Robert Downey Sr. — whose unconventional lifestyle created lasting ripples throughout the family. Their shared documentary, “Sr.”, stands as a powerful testament to the healing they found. Plus, we talk about sobriety, the belief it took to become Iron Man, and the full-circle moments spanning the decades since we first crossed paths on the set of Chaplin.

It's Marvel Monday and the Avengers are back to face their greatest threat yet(?)! ABOUT AVENGERS: AGE OF ULTRON When Tony Stark and Bruce Banner try to jump-start a dormant peacekeeping program called Ultron, things go horribly wrong and it's up to Earth's mightiest heroes to stop the villainous Ultron from enacting his terrible plan. AIR DATE & NETWORK FOR AVENGERS: AGE OF ULTRON May 1, 2015 | Theatrical Release CAST & CREW OF AVENGERS: AGE OF ULTRON Director: Joss Whedon Writers: Joss Whedon, Stan Lee, Jack Kirby Cast: Robert Downey Jr. as Tony Stark/Iron Man Chris Evans as Steve Rogers/Captain America Mark Ruffalo as Bruce Banner/The Hulk Chris Hemsworth as Thor Scarlett Johansson as Natasha Romanoff/Black Widow Jeremy Renner as Clint Barton/Hawkeye James Spader as Ultron Samuel L. Jackson as Nick Fury Don Cheadle as James Rhodes/War Machine Aaron Taylor-Johnson as Pietro Maximoff/Quicksilver Elizabeth Olsen as Wanda Maximoff/Scarlet Witch Paul Bettany as Jarvis/Vision Cobie Smulders as Maria Hill Anthony Mackie as Sam Wilson/Falcon BRAN'S MOVIE SYNOPSIS Meet the Avengers — back together again because apparently no one else can handle a simple “let's raid a HYDRA base” situation. Their mission? Break into Baron von Strucker's operation, stop some deeply concerning human experimentation, and get Loki's scepter back where it belongs. Easy enough… until they run into Pietro and Wanda Maximoff, a pair of enhanced twins with super speed, mind games, and enough power to make everyone very uncomfortable. After recovering the scepter, Tony Stark and Bruce Banner do what Tony Stark and Bruce Banner always do: they mess with something they absolutely should not mess with. Hidden inside the scepter is the advanced intelligence they think can finally complete Ultron, a global peacekeeping program Tony has been dreaming about. Unfortunately, Ultron wakes up with exactly one idea in mind: humanity has got to go. He destroys J.A.R.V.I.S., wrecks Avengers Tower, steals the scepter, and heads out to build himself a better future… one without people in it. Ultron recruits Wanda and Pietro by showing them Tony's greatest hits in collateral damage, and together they set out to collect vibranium for whatever nightmare project he's cooking up. When the Avengers try to stop them, Wanda gets inside everyone's heads and forces them to confront their worst fears. Things really go off the rails when she manipulates Bruce into becoming the Hulk in the middle of a city, leaving Tony to suit up in the Hulkbuster armor and punch his friend through several buildings. Not great for public relations. With the team shaken, divided, and freshly hated by the public, Hawkeye brings everyone to the one place no one saw coming: his secret farmhouse, where he casually reveals that he has a wife, kids, and a whole hidden life none of them knew about. It's a surprisingly grounding stop for a team on the verge of collapse, and it gives them just enough clarity to realize Ultron's plan is much bigger than they thought. Once Wanda sees that he's not trying to save the world but end it, she and Pietro switch sides and join the Avengers. Things escalate quickly when Ultron kidnaps Natasha, forcing the team into another rescue while also arguing over whether they should trust the strange new synthetic body Tony and Bruce have been building. Thor returns just in time to supercharge the process, explaining that the gem in Loki's scepter is tied to something far more powerful: the Infinity Stones. The result is Vision, a mysterious new being who immediately earns everyone's trust by casually lifting Thor's hammer like it's no big deal. The final showdown takes the team to Sokovia, where Ultron has used vibranium to turn an entire chunk of the city into a floating extinction-level weapon. If he can lift it high enough and drop it, humanity is done. So naturally, the Avengers split up to save civilians, battle an endless robot army, rescue Natasha, and stop the apocalypse all at once. Nick Fury even shows up in a Helicarrier because if the sky city is going down, he's not about to miss it. The battle comes at a cost. Pietro sacrifices himself to save Hawkeye and a child, Wanda unleashes her grief in spectacular fashion, and Hulk ultimately chooses to disappear rather than risk hurting Natasha or anyone else again. In the end, Tony and Thor destroy Sokovia before it can wipe out the planet, and Vision finishes off Ultron for good — or at least as “for good” as these things ever are. By the end, the original team has changed. Thor heads back to Asgard to investigate the larger cosmic mystery. Tony steps away. Hawkeye retires. And Steve Rogers and Natasha are left to train a new generation of Avengers, including War Machine, Falcon, Wanda, and Vision. And just when you think it's over, Thanos puts on a gauntlet and basically says, “Fine. I'll do it myself.

Superheroes can bench-press buildings, but they almost never have a healthy relationship with their parents. For this episode of Superhero Ethics Matthew is joined by Pete Wright and Mandy Kaplan to dig into why legacy pressure, attachment injury, and the need for a parent's approval are the real origin stories behind so many of our favorite heroes and villains.Pete breaks down the three narrative engines that power nearly every superhero parental arc, while Matthew and Mandy trace them through Batman's idealized dead father, Tony Stark's lifelong chase for Howard's love, Lex Luthor's impossible battle to escape a name nobody will let him shed, and the Rogue story as a parable about parents terrified of who their child is. The conversation also surfaces a pointed question about whose emotional journey superhero stories choose to follow — and why Leia's reckoning with Darth Vader has been so thoroughly sidelined compared to Luke's.Mandy brings a newcomer's eye that keeps the conversation honest, Pete brings decades of comics knowledge, and Matthew ties it all back to the real thing; we relate to Tony Stark not because we're billionaires, but because we've all had a fraught relationship with a parent. This one hits differently if you have.Previous Conversation Topics Mentioned in This EpisodeStar Wars GenerationsStar Wars: Bloodlines by Claudia GrayStar Wars original trilogy — Luke Skywalker and Darth Vader's father-son arcSuperhero EthicsMoon Knight (Disney+)Daredevil (Netflix)Wonder Man (Disney+) — Matthew's strong recommendationJessica JonesParenthood (1989 film)These are the voices you want in this conversation — pull up a chair and listen.About Pete WrightPete Wright is a veteran broadcaster and media consultant with a 30-year career spanning journalism, brand storytelling, and podcasting.

In this episode of Sounds Like Comics, we revisit Iron Man, the film that launched the Marvel Cinematic Universe and redefined the modern blockbuster. With Robert Downey Jr. delivering a career defining performance as Tony Stark, and Jon Favreau behind the camera, we break down what makes this origin story so enduring. From its sharp character work to its perfect balance of humour and heart, we explore why it still hits just as hard today and how it set the blueprint for everything that followed.

administration is reportedly considering seizing Kharg Island, and the global economy is beginning to buckle under the pressure of disrupted energy flows. Eric Robinson is a lawyer now who worked in NCTC, a veteran of Joint Special Operations Command. He joins Second Breakfast regulars Bryan Clark, Tony Stark, and Justin McIntosh to break down the military and strategic realities of America's latest Middle Eastern war. We discuss… The Kharg Island fantasy and why a coup de main three weeks too late is a recipe for catastrophe "How are you going to take Kharg Island? You have no ships in the Persian Gulf." Why "lethality maxim" is not a theory of victory and the Iranians know it "A focus on a gunfight is why we're in this strategic mess to begin with. There's no amount of successful engagements that will become strategically meaningful if you don't have a vision of victory." The NCTC resignation, its anti-Semitic undertones, and the hollowing out of American counterterrorism infrastructure "An institution that was designed to fix the leaks that gave rise to 9/11, staffed with extraordinary analytic capacity, started chasing the Sinaloa cartel." Whether Iran can strike the US homeland — and why the dog hasn't barked "Did we build a titanium golem that was really a clay monster? Did we dramatically overestimate this operational capacity?" The naval escort nightmare: how keeping the Strait open would consume the entire destroyer fleet and gut Pacific deterrence "If you do this escort operation, it's going to take every available destroyer on the East Coast and in Europe for the duration." DHS corruption, Corey Lewandowski's hundreds of millions, and why American grift has graduated to a new level "Even in somewhere like China, you still have to kind of hide it.

We discuss… Why CENTCOM's 6,000-target tally sounds like a Vietnam body count The staggering failure to prepare for mine and drone countermeasures for the one strait CENTCOM exists to keep open The prospect of a special forces raid to seize Iran's HEU How AI targeting machines like Maven can generate industrial-scale target banks without a theory of victory Learn more about your ad choices.

Another Marvel Monday is here! Let's kick off the week with Iron Man 3. ABOUT IRON MAN 3 When Tony Stark's world is torn apart by a formidable terrorist called the Mandarin, he starts an odyssey of rebuilding and retribution. AIR DATE & NETWORK FOR IRON MAN 3 May 3, 2013 | Theatrical Release CAST & CREW OF IRON MAN 3 Robert Downey Jr. as Tony Stark/Iron Man Guy Pearce as Aldrich Killian Gwyneth Paltrow as Pepper Potts Don Cheadle as Colonel James Rhodes/War Machine Rebecca Hall as Maya Hansen Jon Favreau as Happy Hogan Ben Kingsley as Trevor Slattery BRAN'S MOVIE SYNOPSIS We're back in 1999 in Switzerland on New Year's Eve. Tony Stark is hanging out with scientist Maya Hansen, who's showing him some new experimental regenerative tech called Extremis. It's supposed to heal the human body — but there's a big problem with it: sometimes it explodes. Also at the party, Tony gets approached by Aldrich Killian, who awkwardly pitches him on joining his company, Advanced Idea Mechanics (AIM). Tony blows him off in the most Tony way possible — tells him to meet on the roof later and then never shows up because he's too busy with Maya. Cut to the present day, and Tony is not doing great. Ever since the alien invasion in New York, he's been having nonstop panic attacks. He barely sleeps, he keeps building new Iron Man suits, and it's putting serious strain on his relationship with Pepper — especially when he accidentally summons a suit in his sleep and it crashes down on top of her. One day Killian shows up to Stark Industries to pitch Pepper on AIM's tech. She's impressed but can tell it's clearly headed toward becoming a weapon, so she turns him down. Happy overhears the meeting and gets bad vibes from Killian and his associate, Eric Savin, so he starts following them. Happy tails Savin into a crowded market and watches him hand off a briefcase to a military veteran. Inside are these weird glowing capsules that look like drugs or something. Happy confronts the guy, things get physical, and that's when he realizes Savin is basically a human weapon. It ends horribly — there's a massive explosion, and Happy is left critically injured in the hospital. A terrorist known as the Mandarin takes credit for the blast, along with several others around the country. Furious about what happened to Happy, Tony goes on live TV, calls out the Mandarin, and — in a truly terrible decision — gives him his home address. Yeah. That backfires immediately. Before the attack, Maya Hansen shows up trying to warn Tony about something, but she doesn't get the chance. Moments later, helicopters roll in and absolutely level Tony's Malibu mansion. Pepper barely survives, and Tony escapes in a new prototype suit that runs out of power mid-flight and crash-lands in rural Tennessee. The world assumes Iron Man is dead. Stranded with a half-working suit, Tony meets a smart kid named Harley who helps him regroup. Together they investigate the site of a nearby Mandarin explosion, and Tony starts noticing a pattern: all the victims are military veterans connected to AIM. After hacking into AIM's systems, Tony learns the truth — the "bombings" aren't terrorist attacks at all. They're caused by failed Extremis experiments. Some people's bodies reject it and literally blow up, and Killian has been covering it up by framing the "Mandarin". Savin tracks Tony down and attacks him, giving him his first real look at how powerful Extremis is. Following the trail to Miami, Tony storms the Mandarin's hideout using homemade weapons since he still doesn't have a working suit — only to discover the Mandarin isn't a mastermind terrorist at all. He's just a clueless British actor named Trevor who was hired to play the role, created by Killian to have someone to blame. Killian then kidnaps Pepper and injects her with Extremis, planning to use her as leverage to force Tony to help perfect the tech. When Maya changes her mind and tries to stop him, Killian kills her real bad. Killian also lures Rhodey — now rebranded as the Iron Patriot — into a trap and steals his armor. Using it, Killian kidnaps the President right off Air Force One in a staged "Mandarin" attack. Tony manages to remotely save some passengers, but the President is taken. The plan? Kill the President live on TV and install the Vice President — who Killian has been secretly giving Extremis to — as a puppet leader. With Tony & Rhodey teaming up, Rhodes rescues the President while Tony goes after Pepper. Tony calls in all of his Iron Man suits that he has been creating while not sleeping and they swarm the platform in an all-out battle. Pepper survives the Extremis procedure and turns out to be incredibly powerful, but during the fight she falls into the flames below, and Tony thinks she's dead. Tony confronts Killian and traps him in a suit that self-destructs — but it still doesn't finish him off. And since the explosion didn't kill Killian, maybe the explosion didn't kill Pepper. That's right - Pepper's alive. Extremis healed her and gave her super strength, and she uses it to finally kill Killian for good. After the fight, Tony has JARVIS destroy all of his Iron Man suits, Pepper's Extremis is stabilized, and Tony finally has the shrapnel removed from his chest. But he'll always be….IRON Man 3.

It's time for another Marvel Monday.  This week, it's time to catch back up with Tony! ABOUT IRON MAN 2With the world now aware of his identity as Iron Man, Tony Stark must contend with both his declining health and a vengeful mad man with ties to his father's legacy.AIR DATE & NETWORK FOR IRON MAN 2May 7, 2010 | TheatersCAST & CREW OF IRON MAN 2Robert Downey Jr. as Tony StarkGwyneth Paltrow as Pepper PottsDon Cheadle as RhodeyScarlett Johansson as Natasha RomanoffBRAN'S IRON MAN 2 SYNOPSISThe movie kicks off in Russia, where news has spread that Tony Stark is Iron Man. We meet Ivan Vanko, who is attempting to build an arc reactor like the one keeping Tony alive. His father, Anton Vanko, helped create the original arc reactor prototype alongside Tony's dad, Howard Stark.Six months later, Stark is constantly bragging that his Iron Man armor is helping maintain world peace. He's summoned to a government hearing where officials demand that he turn over the Iron Man technology. Tony's rival, Justin Hammer—now the military's main defense contractor—is also there. Hammer presents evidence showing that foreign nations are close to developing their own versions of Iron Man suits. Stark refuses to hand over the technology, insisting that other countries and competitors (including Hammer Industries) are decades away from recreating his work and that the armor is his personal property.Meanwhile, the core in the arc reactor that keeps Stark alive and powers the armor is slowly poisoning him. Believing he's running out of time, Tony suddenly names Pepper Potts the new CEO of Stark Industries and hires someone named Natasha Rushman as her replacement.After discovering he's more than 50% poisoned, Stark impulsively decides to drive in a Formula 1 race. Mid-race, Vanko shows up and attacks Tony with electrified whip weapons. The fight is intense, but Tony uses the Iron Man suit to defeat Vanko, who is arrested. However, Justin Hammer has Vanko's death faked and breaks him out of prison, recruiting him to help take Stark down.Feeling overwhelmed by his impending death, Tony throws himself a birthday party and gets completely wasted while wearing the Iron Man suit, showing off party tricks to random guests. His friend, Colonel James Rhodes, shows up to intervene. Rhodes puts on Stark's Mark II armor, fights Tony, and ultimately delivers the suit to the military.Feeling sorry for himself, Tony sulks while eating donuts inside a giant donut. Nick Fury, director of S.H.I.E.L.D., arrives and asks to talk. He reveals that “Natasha Rushman” is actually undercover agent Natasha Romanoff. She injects Tony with something that will temporarily keep him alive longer. Fury also reveals that Howard Stark was a founding member of S.H.I.E.L.D., whom Fury knew personally.Fury gives Tony some of his father's old materials, including a hidden message embedded in a model of the 1974 Stark Expo. Tony realizes the model contains a diagram for a brand-new element. With J.A.R.V.I.S.'s help, he successfully synthesizes it, curing himself and upgrading his arc reactor.Meanwhile, Vanko refuses to build traditional combat suits for Hammer, instead creating a fleet of armored drones. Hammer, annoyed but desperate, rolls with the idea and plans to debut them at the Stark Expo.Vanko contacts Stark, revealing that he's still alive and promising revenge. With his new element untested in real combat, Tony suits up anyway and prepares for whatever comes next.
