Not really necessary. It did connect the two movies together (Iron Man and the Incredible Hulk) and explained why Stark was chosen to go to the general. Which was nice to have that connection. But it didn't add to anything and the information wasn't really needed. It was extra short as well which didn't help. The music took away from it, making it feel cheesy and not very serious. It's always nice to see Agent Coulson in action. But I felt they could have added a lot more to this to make it more of a story. Even some filler scenes would have helped. It just felt cheep and out of place. It needed more.
