Trivia
Brian Bendis had written three pages of dialogue for the Nick Fury scene, out of which the filmmakers chose the best lines. To keep it a secret, the scene was filmed with a skeleton crew and was omitted from all previews of the film, which thus maintained the mystery and surprise and kept fans speculative and interested. It conclusively appeared in the final cut as a post-credits scene.

When Tony Stark tells Rhody to 'keep the skies clear' before going to confront Obadiah Stane, Rhody looks to the silve Mark II suit before saying 'next time, baby'. Rhody dons this suit in Iron Man 2.

Adi Granov designed a billboard poster of Iron Man's nemesis, the alien dragon Fin Fang Foom, for the film. This poster can be seen when Stark, while testing the Mark II armor, flies straight down a road (on Stark's left side).

Goofs
The cover of Forbes magazine shown near the beginning bears the headline "Tony Stark takes reigns at 21". The correct spelling is "reins".

When Yinsen asks Tony Stark about the first arc discharge reactors capacity, Stark gives it in gigajoules per second. From this Yinsen calculates that it could sustain his heart for fifty lifetimes. This deduction is impossible, as total running time of a device requires knowledge of total energy produced and not just instantaneous power which Joules per second describes. However, this is not a goof, as Yinsen may have seen some calculations of Stark's and with this new information, reached his conclusion.

In the opening scene where Tony Stark is in the "funvee" with AC/DC playing, drink in hand, there's some kind tape glue residue (like duct tape would leave) on his window that is inconsistently visible between shots.

Q
How does the movie end?
A
Tony orders Pepper to overload the large arc reactor in the building even though he is still on the roof. Pepper is hesitant but obeys. The reactor releases its shockwave, knocking out the Iron Monger and killing Stane. The mini arc reactor in Tony's chest sparks back to life, allowing him to survive. The press subsequently lauds the 'Iron Man' as a hero. Tony likes the moniker, even though his suit is made of a gold-titanium alloy. Agent Coulson (Clark Gregg) invents a cover story telling the 'truth' about the destruction of the Stark Building: a robotic prototype malfunctioned and caused damage to the arc reactor, Stark was on his yacht in Avalon Island, Stane was killed in a small aircraft accrident while on vacation, and the Iron Man was Stark's bodyguard. In the final scene, Tony is about to report Coulson's cover story at a press conference but tosses away his prepared statement and says only, 'I am Iron Man.'
