As an Iron Man (the movie) fan, I have to say that I'm glad this little gem was cut from the movie.
Party scene cut from the film, found in the DVD extras coming out in September
Not only does it really jar with the flow of the movie - this scene is supposed to come after Tony hears about Gulmira (the Afghani village) and goes on his first real mission as Iron Man - but it's ummm really icky.
Ach, but that's just personal observation.
But really, eww
In any event, I really like that Tony went all Gong-Ho into the situation, it suits his personality as an impulsive mad scientist. Not to mention that this happens after the scene where Tony and Pepper have an almost-kiss and then he leaves her because his conscience is eating away at his over bloated ego. Thus the whole would-be debauchery in this cut scene may make sense to Pepper who thinks Tony's getting back in the saddle of meaningless sex, but dude... that's gotta burn.
Though I liked the wreckage that Pepper encounters Tony sitting in; it gives a clue to his mood, though it's a little lost since he's playing it stoic.
And *snerk* at the anti-bacterial soap hand-shake.
So it's an icky scene, demeans Pepper and doesn't do credit to Tony Stark's character.
All in all... I'm glad it was cut and so should you be.
