• Iron Man

From Entertainment Weekly — “Forging Iron Man: How director Jon Favreau launched the Marvel Cinematic Universe”.

JON FAVREAU: I had met Avi Arad [CEO and president of Marvel Studios] when I was playing Foggy Nelson in the Daredevil film with Ben Affleck. Years later, when he was pulling together Marvel Studios, he reached out to me to come in. In the subsequent time, I had directed Elf and Zathura, and he had gotten the rights to Iron Man and the Hulk. I met with them in their first offices on Beverly Boulevard above the Mercedes dealership. It was a few people in a few offices. It wasn’t very glamorous at all.

Iron Man was a relatively low-budget film. There was a sense that comic-book movies had run their course, and we were marching out the B-list heroes and trying to release films at a more modest budget. Under those circumstances, it wasn’t like you had your standard list of movie stars to choose from. I sat down with Robert Downey Jr., and he looked great, and he had this very focused energy. I had, of course, been a fan of his work, and I got the sense that he was very serious about this role and about his career. It was the first time I met with somebody where I understood how the movie would come together. It wasn’t an easy job to get him cast. There was quite a bit of resistance at first. But after he had filmed his screen test, the studio got excited.

• Walking Dead

When AMC’s The Walking Dead first premiered on Halloween night in 2010, it felt as if the world stopped turning and television lovers across the globe turned into zombies themselves — ones hungry for more episodes of the groundbreaking post-apocalyptic horror series.

• Infinity Stones

CinemaBlend learned “A Marvel Comics Editor Posted A Really Handy Explanation Of The Infinity Stones”.

Warning: SPOILERS for Thor: Ragnarok and Black Panther are ahead!

Right now, five Infinity Stones are accounted for in the MCU. The Power Stone is still locked safely away in the Nova Corps vault, Loki retrieved the Space Stone before Asgard was destroyed in Thor: Ragnarok, the Mind Stone is still powering The Vision, the Time Stone is resting in Kamar-Taj as the Eye of Agamotto, and as far as we know, The Collector still possesses the Reality Stone. That leaves only the Soul Stone that hasn’t been officially introduced outside of Collector’s history lesson in Guardians of the Galaxy. While some speculated that we might finally see the Soul Stone during Black Panther, that didn’t end up happening, though there’s still a chance it is indeed resting in Wakanda judging by how the African nation will be an important battleground in Avengers: Infinity War.

• Alien

In deep space, the crew of the commercial starship Nostromo is awakened from their cryo-sleep capsules halfway through their journey home to investigate a distress call from an alien vessel. The terror begins when the crew encounters a nest of eggs inside the alien ship. An organism from inside an egg leaps out and attaches itself to one of the crew, causing him to fall into a coma.

• Howard Stark

ScreenRant answers: “How Did Howard Stark Get The Vibranium For Cap’s Shield?”

Ulysses Klaue told Agent Everett Ross in Black Panther that he’s the only person to have infiltrated Wakanda and come out alive (in 1992). Of course, he had help from N’Jobu, but he maintains that no one has ever successfully entered (and exited) the fictitious nation aside from him. But perhaps there were other black market dealers (or even just outsiders) before his time – some of which had ties with Howard. After all, some earlier Wakandan artifacts ended up in the British Museum which Killmonger said were forcefully taken from the central African country.
