Iron Man 2 and the nods to Disney

**Vadania** · 05-09-2010, 02:06 PM

I've just been to see Iron Man 2 and I loved it!!

My husband and I are huge fans of Marvel and Disney and we loved the little references to Disney.

Howard Stark doing a pretty good Walt Disney impression.
Stark Expo video - EPCOT film reel.
The Stark Expo music - Carousel of Progress spoof but still written by Richard Sherman!!!
Stark Expo map - EPOCT design map.

Did anyone pick up on others??

P.S. [[from Vadania's hubbie]] Stay until after the credits - it may not be a Disney nod but it's a must!!

I totally loved the Disney references, would love to hear the directors take on those scenes, and I'd also like to know where I can get my hands on the Sherman song!

And the Marvel/Disney synergy begins. Actually that's pretty awesome.

According to early script rumors, Captain America will be found in the 21st century by the Avengers....encased in audio-animatronic at The American Adventure.

Yea i saw Iron Man 2 opening night and it was awesome, not as good as the first but still great. The acting was flawless and War Machine with Iron Man fighting was sick!!!
When i saw Howard Stark's presentation of the Stark Expo i immediately thought of Walt and the Epcot presentations

I still can't believe how many of my friends who claim to be huge comic book geeks or fans of Disney didn't pick up on things like the nod to Walt or Captain America's shield in Tony Starks home office... it's picked up and commented on by the S.H.I.E.L.D agent!!
