'Iron Man 2' Trailer: Shot-By-Shot Analysis

FROM MTV.COM: Iron Man is back in action — and this time, he brought some new friends.

The first trailer for director Jon Favreau's highly anticipated "Iron Man 2" premiered online Wednesday night, the result of a short-lived (but nonetheless mysterious) viral marketing campaign. While fans have already caught glimpses of Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.) and his heavily armed sidekick War Machine (Don Cheadle) thanks to the film's previously released poster, the new trailer easily provides the best sense of what moviegoers can expect when "Iron Man 2" hits theaters next year.

We've used our very own Stark Industries technology — by which we mean our low-grade laptops — to sort through the "Iron Man 2" trailer for a shot-by-shot breakdown. Strap on your armor and set repulsor rays to stun as we analyze the amazing footage from the comic book adaptation's first trailer.
