Saying that this was released as the first film of phase 1 of the MCU is ridiculous nonsense.
If this movie had lost money there would not have been any other Marvel movies for a while and maybe not anymore at all.
The fact that it was a success is why there even was an MCU. You should talk to somebody who lived through the time before you start writing ridiculous things like that, that is just plain freaking ridiculous. Just like everybody else who makes movies, they had no idea if this was going to be a success or not. They made the best movie they could and they took their chances. But there were no guarantees it was going to be a success at the box office 166.194.136.61 (talk) 00:40, 23 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]
It ends with Nick Fury mentioning the Avenger Initiative to Tony Stark so the plans were clearly there. The Incredible Hulk was released merely six weeks later and would absolutely have been released no matter how Iron Man turned out. Robert Downey Jr. has a cameo as Tony Stark. We don't know what would have happened if Iron Man did poorly but it's not like Marvel suddenly said "Hey, this is popular, let's turn it into a series."

Illustrator Phil Saunders
Under the Pre-production section, we have this sentence:
"Iron Man comic book artist Adi Granov designed the Mark III with illustrator Phil Saunders." However, the Phil Saunders linked is not illustrator Phil Saunders, but WWII vet and 19th Attorney General of South Dakota Phil Saunders, who died in 1997 and therefore cannot have worked on a film in 2008. I don't believe illustrator Phil Saunders has a Wikipedia page, though. 2600:1702:5730:83D0:D42:80AA:D2E:18BD (talk) 05:41, 1 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Can someone explain what is the relevance of the sentence "This article incorporates facts obtained from: Lawrence Kestenbaum, The Political Graveyard" in the post-production section? It does not make any sense in relation to the text and information in the section. I removed it and it was reverted as "relevant text"? The template itself does not give any guidance or explanation of what it is / should be used for. 2401:7400:C80A:9A9D:C4CB:2C4F:36E3:2966 (talk) 03:15, 1 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It comes from Template:pg and as far as I can tell, it is 1) not relevant to the section in question; and 2) if relevant (which is not explained), it's not in the right place in the article. @Jgstokes appreciate your engagement on this please. 2401:7400:C80A:9A9D:C4CB:2C4F:36E3:2966 (talk) 03:44, 1 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
That was a typographic error. The correct template intended to be called is {{Rp}} (to cite the page numbers of the cited source), and I have corrected it to such. Trailblazer101 (talk) 04:12, 1 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
