Fun fact for you two, the music playing during the Vegas award/casino scene, and Tony’s ringtone on Rhodey’s phone is the 1960’s Iron Man cartoons theme song.

That’s so cool! I love little homages/tributes like that. –Drew

It's also used during the bedroom scene just after Vegas. The music Drew said sounded like 007. Tony Stark Makes you feel He's a cool exec With a heart of steel

The Burger King burger is actually an RDJ thing rather than typical product placement. While the exact details are difficult to lock down*, RDJ credits a bad BK burger in 2003 in helping him have a moment of clarity in realizing he had hit rock bottom. Supposedly BK has given him a "free BK for life" card because he's spoken so positively about BK's link to his sobriety. *RDJ has told at least a couple slightly different versions of the story over the years. On the other hand, the R8 was complete product placement. It was brand new and Audi/VW spent a good chunk of money to have Tony Stark drive it so prominently. There are a LOT of Audis coming in the MCU(and some Acuras).

One more little tidbit. Nick Fury was introduced way back in 1963 as a white guy leading a combat team in WW2(David Hasselhoff actually played him in a terrible 90s tv movie). Around 2000, Marvel Comics created an alternate reality(Ultimates) and re-envisioned a bunch of their classic characters. With Fury, they decided to model the new version directly off of Sam Jackson. So casting Jackson as Fury in Iron Man is something like life imitating art imitating life. ;) And not all bald men are angry and villainous. (grumblegrumblegrumble) :D
