Iron Man 2: Possible Stark Industries Leaked Footage Dan Koelsch, April 15, 2010April 15, 2010 Our friends over at Slashfilm have found a pretty interesting video on YouTube regarding Iron Man 2. It looks to be footage of a Stark Industries presentation in which they are showcasing the technology of the Iron Man suit’s arm blaster (not sure what it’s called), and it cuts out right before the fun stuff happens. Take a look after the jump. There’s little information as to whether this is real (i.e. from Marvel, part of the viral campaign) or fake (fan made). The YouTube user is just claiming he took this video at some presentation, though he wasn’t supposed to. There’s no mention of Iron Man or Stark Industries, and this is the only video on his innocuously-named page. The tech used resembles that from the first Iron Man, when Tony Stark was first testing the mechanical arm. So, this could be someone playing a joke who happened to get their hands on the prop from the film. If it’s real, hopefully it plays into the overall campaign. What could those numbers in the video’s title mean? What do you think? Is this part of the viral campaign, or just a clever ruse from some fans? Viral Marketing Iron Man 2Stark IndustriesViral video
