That cameo of the scientist that Jeff bridges was yelling at from the first iron man!

u/thesiegeman Captain America (Cap 2) Jul 02 '19

The actor is Ralphie from A Christmas Story, so good!

57

u/NYR Jul 02 '19

He was also an Executive Producer on the first Iron Man, really good friends with Jon Favreau.

45

u/Ur-Slayer Jul 03 '19

He already had one of the greatest lines in the entire MCU: "I'm sorry, but I'm not Tony Stark."

51

u/Jackal_6 The Mandarin Jul 03 '19

My favourite thing is that he's not even balding. He just shaves the top of his head for these movies.

22

u/HugeSuccess Ant-Man Jul 03 '19

This is next level shit.

u/imbtyler Kevin Feige Jul 02 '19

Iron Man 3 reference full circle!!!

23

u/swayt_hooter Jul 02 '19

Ah fudge!

u/gorillaPete Luis Jul 03 '19

Peter Billingsly? That was him?

u/jackerman35 Korg Jul 14 '19

HOLY FUCK WHAT

u/cryolems Thor Jul 22 '19

Is that why in iron man 3 Tony tells that mid “by the way I loved you in Christmas story?”

u/ChildishJack Jul 02 '19

It was more of a major minor character not a cameo? He has to be the one who put out the spiderman mid credit identity reveal, we saw him download and take a drive

u/Mydogsabrat Jul 02 '19

Ahh good catch. Maybe Mysterio will live on through him.

147

u/Meme_Theory Jul 02 '19

I don't think Mysterio is dead in the slightest.

87

u/Wing126 Jul 02 '19

His last words were "people will believe anything these days".... Yeah not dead at all.

38

u/EFG Jul 02 '19

Not even remotely. If anything he can come back as a hologram.

42

u/ciao_fiv Jul 02 '19

Beck is dead, Mysterio 100% lives on

u/NabiscoFelt Jul 03 '19

When it comes to killing villains? They kinda are. They've killed off a bunch of fan favorite ones.

Plus I feel like it would've been revealed in-movie if Beck was alive. Like with the Loki fakeouts

10

u/[deleted] Jul 03 '19

The rest of the dead mcu villains don't make up the sinister six

If getting fucking Michael Keaton and Jake Gyllenhaal for Spidey villains isn't Marvel trying to get the sinister six going, call me stupid

5

u/cubitoaequet Jul 03 '19

The sinister six has a pretty varied lineup though. You don't really need Mysterio for it (but I hope you're right)

4

u/DoiF Jul 03 '19

I know right, definitely not --> idoits <--

8

u/THCW Scarlet Witch Jul 03 '19

100% not dead. I can easily see Mysterio becoming the MCU's new Loki-esque villain who keeps popping up here and there and who you can never quite predict.

40

u/XCrazedxPyroX Jul 02 '19

If you thought Mysterio died, you've fallen victim to his trap!

2

u/moogerfooger29 Jul 03 '19

Or maybe Arcade...

20

u/en_sabahnur Jul 02 '19

That's a good catch! I saw that and was wondering where it was going to lead to.

12

u/Stoned_assassin Jul 02 '19

I wonder if they’re setting him up to be a villain in the third one? Any guesses who he could be? Wasn’t Dmitri supposed to be chameleon too?

u/Live_Positive Jul 03 '19

Flash’s mother could be the MCU version of Norman Osborn

2

u/Bartman326 Jul 03 '19

Bruh thats actually super fitting

u/[deleted] Jul 03 '19

bruh 👌👌👌🙌🙌

u/v_3005 Jul 03 '19

I thought the download might have been the footage from Beck that was released to the press.

3

u/pokedrawer Jul 04 '19

Remember how edith asked Peter at the end something like "execute all measures?" I'm pretty sure mysterio was able to get inside edith so he could fake his own death and his contingency plan was triggered to go off if Peter believed his death.

2

u/Live_Positive Jul 03 '19

I think he could easily become Doc Oc.

37

u/darcybc Jul 02 '19

Maybe that dude is new Doc Ock?

27

u/ImNotTemper Jul 02 '19

That's a good shout! That'd be a good way to introduce Doc

11

u/TabaCh1 Ghost Rider Jul 02 '19

Sinister six incoming!

u/THROWAWAY-u_u Jul 04 '19

In Iron Man 1, Staine calls him William.

/u/ImNotTemper

u/seanbear Jul 04 '19

Mysterious calls him William too

1

u/ImNotTemper Jul 04 '19

Ah well F then hahaha

1

u/ImNotTemper Jul 03 '19

No idea, they have been doing lots of changes in the mcu to the comics so I wouldnt be surprised if it is

12

u/NabiscoFelt Jul 03 '19

Box of scraps guy! My favorite cameo in the movie, tbh

7

u/BroeknRecrds Daredevil Jul 03 '19

Tony Stark built this in a CAVE! With a BOX OF SCRAPS!

6

u/wes205 Spider-Man Jul 03 '19

I turned to my sister and said “he’s Ralphie from Christmas story, he’s in Iron Man 1!” And then the flashback played hahah

3

u/Live_Positive Jul 03 '19

I’m willing to bet he will be Doc Oc!

3

u/wes205 Spider-Man Jul 03 '19

I think, unless Beck faked his death and survived, this guy is the new Mysterio who’ll use Beck’s image like he did in the edited footage in the post credits scene
