Iron Man Talks On His Cell Phone While Driving

Here's another new clip from Friday's Iron Man movie, courtesy of star Robert Downey Jr.'s appearance on Letterman last night. I saw the film last night, and this clip showcases the playfulness with which the movie melds personal technology with Tony Stark's super high-tech armor. It totally makes sense that Tony would re-route his cellphone into his armor — and yet it's startling and hilarious at the same time.
