'Iron Man 2' Easter egg explained

There are two obvious hidden things in "Iron Man 2," both of which are spoilers so I won't mention them here.

But, Marvel fans will be able to see them and automatically know right away.

There is one extra one for people who are looking for it.

Like Stephanie and I.

At one point in the movie a television news broadcast is shown with the breaking news story about some sort of riot at Culver University.

After the screening I was trying to figure out what Culver University had to do with the Marvel movie universe.

Stephanie had a thought: "Was that the college in 'The Incredible Hulk?'"

Got home and searched it. She was right.

So that means that "Iron Man 2" and "The Incredible Hulk" take place about the same time. Which means the ending for "The Incredible Hulk" scene at the end with Tony Stark took place after the events of "Iron Man 2."

Nice bits of organization.
