1
Iron Man.
2
Another one?
3
In there, I know. Is that?
4
Yep.
5
Iron Man.
6
Those...yeah.
7
Iron Man.
8
Iron Man is fondly remembered as an unforgettable legend, noted for his sassy attitude and alpha man behavior.
9
Add those two together and you have the MCU's most badass character of all time.
10
Let me prove it to you with my top 30 most badass Iron Man scenes in the movies.
11
Whew, it's good to be back.
12
You don't have any tech in that area I should know about?
13
Nope.
14
Okay, good, because I'm staring at one right now and it's about to be blown to Kingdom Cup.
15
We're kicking things off with a classic, and I wouldn't have it any other way.
16
The first Iron Man movie captured the feel of the suit perfectly.
17
It felt weighty, it was heavy, it felt like a freaking tank on legs.
18
Obviously the tech got better up until the nanotech suit, which is cool too, but nothing beats the grounded, gritty feel that the Mark III had.
19
The scene with the F-22 Raptors was an unbelievable sight because nobody had ever done stuff like this in the movies.
20
At least not with the kind of CGI and visual effects that were on display over here.
21
I mean, just look how he wrestles with those jets.
22
Fake Rhodes had no idea what was going on.
23
Well, he's actually the OG Rhodes, but that doesn't matter now, does it?
24
But seriously, seeing Iron Man fly around with those Raptor jets really made me question the current state of visual effects.
25
I should start a petition to bring back CGI from the 2010s.
26
Oh my god, you crazy son of a f*.
27
Where'd that come from?
28
It's Nanotech, you like it?
29
The year is 2018, you've just booked your tickets to watch Avengers Infinity War, you watch Tony Stark transform into his nano suit and blast colour obsidian away like an insect.
30
Life is good.
31
There are a lot of moments to take back from this film.
32
Bring me Thanos!
33
But watching the first ever scene with the Nanotech suit was a total vibe.
34
I'm glad they edited the visual in the trailer because that transformation was top-notch stuff.
35
Also, the repulsor blasters he summons to defeat Carl Obsidian were super sick.
36
Like, how can you be so cool?
37
I personally didn't think it was humanly possible to reach this level of sass, but then again, I'm just a mere mortal, aren't I?
38
Dog.
39
You know me?
40
You're not the only one cursed with knowledge.
41
My only curse is you.
42
Okay, so
43
everyone remembers the Battle of New York, but I think most of us have forgotten just how awesome Iron Man was here, even before he saved the city from a nuclear missile.
44
Like he literally destroyed dozens of Chitauri monsters from the get-go in order to avoid overcrowding.
45
If that wasn't enough, he kept killing the alien soldiers one at a time
46
and went on to destroy a freaking Leviathan even though his suit wasn't at max power.
47
You ever hear the tale of Jonah?
48
I wouldn't consider him a role model.
49
There's so much to unpack in this scene
50
and the one thing I'll remember the most is the way Iron Man made sure to keep the invasion under check.
51
Sure Thor and the others were doing their bit too
52
but I'm pretty sure Tony had the highest body count and I don't mean that in a dirty way. So...
53
Son of a guy.
54
What the hell?
55
Please tell me nobody gets me.
56
The thing about a guy like Tony Stark is that he can be a badass and flex at the same time.
57
The after party starts in 15 minutes.
58
And if anybody, Trevor, doesn't like it, there's a dart.
59
Just look at his entrance in Iron Man 2.
60
He starts off with a load of confidence
61
and goes from strength to strength to give us a truly memorable opening to his sequel.
62
tend to make a lot of noise whenever they make a public appearance and Tony Stark's no different.
63
Just look at all those girls dancing for him.
64
Just once in my life I'd like to make an entrance that looks like that.
65
Just look at the way everyone cheers for him.
66
This is a man who's loved and sought after and it shows.
67
I still can't imagine what it would be like if Tom Cruise had taken this role.
68
It's just not possible to have anyone other than Robert Downey Jr. play the character.
69
If you mess with Tony Stark, then you better be prepared to face the consequences.
70
The terrorists of Gulmira made that mistake and they paid the price soon after.
71
It's the first time we get to see Iron Man in
72
all of his glory taking down evil goons one after the other without getting a single scratch.
73
This was exactly what we needed to see after a rather difficult first half
74
that included Tony fighting for his life which is already dangling by a thread.
75
It was pretty obvious that Iron Man was going to save all the hostages
76
and take down the bad guys but
77
if he did it the normal way then nobody would have remembered him as well as they did.
78
Jon Favreau made sure to shoot the scene in a way that made Iron Man look deadly and almost invincible.
79
And that's why we're still talking about this scene even after 15 years.
80
I hacked a multi-million dollar suit so you could sneak around behind my back.
81
If you even cared, you'd actually be here.
82
I was crazy to recruit a 14-year-old kid to 15.
83
No, this is where you zip it, alright?
84
The adult is talking.
85
And if you died, I feel like that's on me.
86
I just wanted to be like you.
87
Then I wanted you to be better.
88
I'm gonna need the suit back.
89
For how long?
90
Forever.
91
I'm nothing without this suit.
92
If you're nothing without this suit, then you shouldn't have it.
93
Okay?
94
I always find a way to include an Iron Man scene from this movie.
95
Well, Robert Downey Jr. did get paid $10 million for just 8 minutes of screen time, so I should make the most out of it too, right?
96
On a serious note, this moment does have something to teach us, because it showed Tony's true nature towards Peter Parker.
97
Sure, he thinks Spider-Man is still a kid and shouldn't be out playing with the big boys, but at the same time,
98
he also believed in Peter and alerted the authorities.
99
The most badass moment was obviously when he popped out of the suit, Contrary to what Spidey was saying taking away spider-man suit might have been a bit too extreme
100
But Iron Man did have a point when he said
101
if you're nothing without this then you should now Does he apply in his own life to stick around
102
and you're gonna see for yourself And I'll introduce the world the newest official member of the Avengers
103
If there's one thing we've learned from Iron Man 2, it's that Tony Stark loves to humiliate Justin Hammer.
104
Hold on a second buddy.
105
What's really going on?
106
What is he doing?
107
If you'll direct your attention to said screens.
108
Is that Justin Hammer?
109
How did Hammer get here?
110
He already did this thing during the hearing, but now he straight up attacks and destroys tons of Hammer drones without even putting in much effort.
111
To be honest, I had a lot of high hopes for these robots because they were hyped to a whole other level, but then to see Iron Man going through them like some
112
cheap plastic toy soldiers just made me remember why Hammer Industries is such a fail.
113
The fight against War Machine was still interesting because the suit had all those upgrades which made it a much better contender, and yes, I'm aware of the theory regarding that kid Tony saves in the middle of the chaos.
114
He might be Peter Parker, but considering the fact that I just mentioned how Tony scored him in the previous entry, let's not get into the details.
115
Tony does like to prove a point
116
so after the Spidey entry here he is taking on the
117
Winter Soldier with nothing more than a neat piece of hand armor.
118
Granted the billionaire doesn't have the kind of body suited to long range combat
119
but the The shockwave attack after his watch armour was an impressive little addition to his already impressive repertoire.
120
I mean we've seen Tony own multiple scenes throughout his time as Iron Man
121
but the Bucky fight was more of a personal statement.
122
Bro even blocked a literal gunshot and smiled right back at his opponent.
123
I guess this is what the TikTok kids like to call Unserious.
124
God why do I even use such terms hey?
125
Coming back to Tony, he might have lost the battle
126
but he also proved that he can pack a punch even without his suit.
127
I said...
128
NEEL!
129
Neil.
130
I took it!
131
Agent Romanov, you miss me?
132
Sometimes I think people forget how strong Loki really is.
133
Sure, he's no Thor, but he is still a god, so he does have superhuman strength.
134
We got to see it a lot during the first Avengers film, and Steve Rogers had taken the brunt of that strength.
135
Of course, a little super soldier serum is no match for the might of a literal god, but then Iron Man swoops in and defeats Loki with a couple of repulsor blasts.
136
It's an instant flex
137
and also goes on to show just how powerful Iron Man is in comparison to the likes of Captain America.
138
What I really found badass about this scene was the way he made his entrance.
139
Bro managed to change the musical score of the movie,
140
flirt with Scarlett Johansson and save Captain America's life all within the space of just a few seconds.
141
So if that's not badass to you then I don't know what is.
142
Man, I really miss the MCU from the older days.
143
Please bring it back somehow.
144
You know, this is a suit that had a pretty cool design and concept, but we only got to see it once.
145
The Mark V vs Whiplash scene was one of the many moments to prove Tony Stark's preparedness for any kind of battle.
146
Carrying a battle suit in a briefcase is pretty badass if you ask me, and even though it looked like a simpler version of the previous suit, I'd say it was pretty effective in combat.
147
The transformation in itself took my breath away, although I will admit that it took a bit too much time to complete.
148
Sure, Vanko wanted to make sure he was facing the suit and not just Tony Stark, so he was willing to wait, but in my opinion, Bro really should have gone for it in the beginning itself.
149
He got humbled soon after, and all he managed to do was land a couple of blows.
150
The way Iron Man wraps his way around the electric whip but effortlessly knocks Vanko down gave me total Giga Chad vibes.
151
I'll let you live.
152
In 5, 4, bang!
153
Wow.
154
You should be gone by now.
155
5, 4, 3, 2, 1, you're right!
156
Told you.
157
Leave it to Iron Man to give us a hilarious little display right before he proceeds to own everyone in the room.
158
He doesn't even need his full suit here, but that's kinda because of the Mark 42 being his biggest failure in terms of battle weapons.
159
I swear, it's like that suit never wanted to exist.
160
Anyway, the countdown sequence is what does it for me
161
because Tony knows what's gonna happen but the timing just doesn't go his way.
162
Of course he dominates everyone after getting a couple of parts fixed to his body
163
and it was pretty impressive to see how well he could navigate even without 80% of the armor.
164
Tony is the kind of man who likes to make progress
165
so this is a believable upgrade after the difficulties he had faced with his earlier suits in the previous films.
166
Also, I just wanted to mention the guy who simply raises his hands and runs away after calling his bosses weird.
167
Bro had seen enough and figured that his salary just wasn't worth the risk.
168
It's the kind of thing I see myself doing if Iron Man were to ever ransack my place of work.
169
Honestly, I hate working here.
170
They are so weird.
171
Listen well, brother.
172
I'm listening.
173
Do not touch me again.
174
Then don't take my step.
175
Doth mother know you weareth her drapes.
176
Until then, stay out of the way.
177
If you were to place a bet on the winner between Iron Man and Thor, you'd most probably choose the God of Thunder with your eyes closed.
178
However, Tony loves being the underdog, probably because he's never had the chance to be one throughout his entire life.
179
Jokes aside, the battle between Iron Man
180
and Thor was a treat to the eyes because this was technically their first proper interaction.
181
Now, Thor's obviously got Thunder, Lightning and Mjolnir, but Tony's got Sass and that's exactly why this fight feels more dominated by him.
182
Technically speaking, this was a tie because of Captain America's disruption, but the striking was top-tier stuff.
183
The God of Thunder might have been able to land a few punches, but it was the God of the MCU who violated him with witchy lines and repulsor cannons.
184
You have no idea what you're dealing with.
185
Uh, Shakespeare in the park?
186
Bro even used Thor's biggest weapon against him with that Thunder recharge.
187
I swear, it's like Iron Man has no concept of the word fear.
188
But then again, he did say that his plan was to attack.
189
Hey!
190
That's enough!
191
What is it you're trying to achieve?
192
I'm discovering, uh, correction, I'm rediscovering the universe.
193
What is it you're trying to achieve?
194
I'm discovering, uh, rediscovering the universe.
195
What makes Robert Downey Jr. special?
196
He can sit in a room and talk to himself and be more entertaining than half the characters in the MCU.
197
One of the primary reasons why Tony Stark is so successful is because of his ridiculous sense of intellect.
198
Yeah, sure, he was born with a golden spoon, but the man still needed to manage and maintain Stark Industries, otherwise he would have just run it into the ground.
199
So when he rediscovered the element that his dad had paved the way for, it was a very satisfying moment.
200
I still can't believe Howard said he was limited by the technology of his time.
201
Imagine what he could have done if he was still alive during Tony's era.
202
But here's the thing.
203
I love this scene because Tony puts in the work and creates the element through effort and skill.
204
Nowadays, everyone in the MCU is just a genius by birth, and that's not how you make interesting characters.
205
The reason we all love Iron Man is because he earned
206
that title and has proven time and time again why he deserves it.
207
You can't just nullify that with lazy writing.
208
Imagine how Deadpool would feel.
209
The structure of the protons and the neutrons, using the pavilions.
210
When is somebody gonna kill this guy?
211
Just sayin'.
212
Here's a little holiday greeting I've been wanting to send to the Mandarin.
213
My name is Tony Stark and I'm not afraid of you.
214
Though I've decided that you just died, pal.
215
I'm gonna come get the body.
216
Here's my home address.
217
10 8 80 Malibu Park 90265 Leave the door unlocked You know, it's not like Tony to let himself loose with the rage But in Iron Man 3,
218
we got to see a whole new side to the genius
219
billionaire playboy philanthropist Confidence was always something he had in abundance But even then, there's a limit to such things, eh?
220
I mean, Bro already gave away his identity as Iron Man
221
And now he just straight up gives his address on national television?
222
You need guts of steel to do such things But I guess Tony's already there, isn't he?
223
Even if you look at the way he speaks to the camera It feels as
224
if he's staring directly into the eyes of the person recording him.
225
I do get that he's tired of these mindless games the Mandarin's trying to play with him, but this whole sequence just added so much more to his character.
226
It's like we were finally getting to see what's actually going on in his head, you know?
227
And of course, if you can remain badass even when you're vulnerable, then it does show true courage.
228
Also, on a side note, I'm glad they didn't kill off Happy.
229
He might be a side character, but he still feels like a crucial part of the Iron Man family.
230
Get down!
231
It's good to be back.
232
Oh, this ain't gonna be good.
233
You know what's better than one Iron Man?
234
Two Iron Men against a pseudo one.
235
The final battle in Iron Man 2 was one of its few redeeming points, And I gotta say, we really didn't appreciate this era as much as we should
236
have Given the current state of things in 2023 I'd happily go back to 2010
237
and enjoy this film on the big screen As far as
238
the contest against the Hammer Drones go I think it's safe to assume
239
that it was a one-sided battle Tony obviously had to show off
240
So he gave us all a glimpse of his deadly lasers
241
That really was a class act
242
if you ask me Moving on to the final boss We all knew
243
that Whiplash was going to be one tough baddie
244
But for him to bother both Iron Man and War Machine Was a bit of a villainous flex too However, he totally underestimated Tony, who's the big daddy of turning things around,
245
and that's exactly what happens here as well.
246
The final laser explosion was such a beautiful sight to behold.
247
It really should have included stuff like this in the later films as well.
248
Changing into overpowered tech suits is pretty much Tony's trademark move
249
and he's actually done it so many times that I could make a separate list on it.
250
Wait, that's actually a pretty good idea isn't it?
251
One particular scene that comes to mind most of the time is
252
when he changes into the Mark 46 in the middle of his flight.
253
Well, his intention was always to double cross Ross, but the transformation is still iconic.
254
As a matter of fact, it's such a satisfying moment to watch that I completely forgot about Black Panther following after him in his own jet.
255
It's also one of the most innovative ways I've seen him do this.
256
We're all so used to getting our food delivered to us at the click of a button
257
but Mr Stark gets a whole Iron Man suit doing the exact same thing.
258
Bro really knows how to flex that billionaire lifestyle doesn't he?
259
But on a serious note how many of these things does he really have?
260
His suits are freaking everywhere.
261
Want to take on Tony Stark while he reads the morning Boom!
262
The paper is one of his suits.
263
Did he give you anything on Roger?
264
Stop, told me to go to hell, I'm going back to the compound instead.
265
I'll put you on hold, I'd like to watch the line blink.
266
Remember that earlier entry when Tony takes away Spider-Man's suit?
267
Well, he wasn't just making up those words out of thin air.
268
Bro practices what he preaches, and this scene proves it in the best possible way.
269
I did mention the Bucky scene too, but that still required some kind of Iron Man tech, even if it was just his hand.
270
Infiltrating the Mandarin's mansion is no easy feat, even if he eventually turned out to be some kind of wasted actor.
271
The point remains that the Extremis Project was using this place as a front, and the security was always going to be of the highest standard.
272
Enter Tony Stark, who manages to infiltrate the facility without even using his Iron Man suit.
273
Yeah, sure he uses his gadgets to get by, but I think we can give him that much leeway
274
when he's taking on guards that are twice his size Tony might not be Bruce Lee or anything like that, but his grit and determination are on the same level See, it's moments like these that prove to us why Tony Stark is
275
so much more than a man in his suit His most important weapons have always been his brain and his courage Like, if I was in his place, I'd probably ask one of those guys if they needed another actor to play the Mandarin son or something
276
The world could come to an end and I'd still find a way to include the tank scene in my lists.
277
The reason why I'm always so hyped about this particular moment is because of the sheer dominance on display.
278
We're used to seeing Tony all witty and charming, but when it's time to unleash violence, he doesn't back down at all.
279
Even the designer of his suit over here makes it appear as if he's pissed off about the earlier kidnapping, Taking down the terrorists was a satisfying sight as I've already explained in the earlier entry
280
But to see
281
that missile destroy the tank in all of two business seconds
282
Truly elevated the scene to a whole other level It just
283
goes on to show how lethal Iron Man can be
284
And of course I'd be a fool not to mention the
285
way Iron Man makes his exit from the scene of the crime It's just
286
so badass to see your favourite superhero walking away from an explosion Yeah, I know Logan did it first, but Tony's moment is just as iconic Little did we know
287
that this man would go on to rule the silver screen over the next decade Uh,
288
actually I'm planning to threaten her.
289
You should have left your armor on for that.
290
I've seen a bit of mileage and you've got the uh...
291
Close stick of destiny.
292
This usually works.
293
All performance issues.
294
And there's one other person you pissed off.
295
His name is Phil.
296
Loki might have his own little way with words, but if his interactions with the Hulk or anything to go by, he's nothing more than a puny god.
297
Iron Man knows that better than most, which is why the brief confrontation between him and the god of mischief was a treat to watch.
298
The best part is that it's mostly Tony's wit that makes him the champion.
299
Vegetaria coming.
300
What have I to fear?
301
The Avengers.
302
Sort of like a team.
303
Earth's mightiest heroes type thing.
304
There's no fighting involved over here until the final moment
305
when Iron Man is thrown out of the room and then uses a repulsor blast on Loki.
306
Whether it's his sarcasm or general use of condescension, you can easily gauge the dynamic between both characters and Tony takes the cake with ease.
307
See, this is why I keep saying it's all about character when it comes to being a badass.
308
Could someone like Steve Rogers have been able to pull this off?
309
Or even his own brother Thor?
310
Wait, scratch that, I forgot Loki's adopted.
311
Anyway, my point here is that Iron Man has achieved God-level status because of all of his characteristics put together.
312
Also, huge shout out to the suit-up scene after Loki throws Tony off his own building, that was a personal highlight.
313
I have an army.
314
We have a Hulk.
315
We can't protect the Earth, if you can be damn well sure, we'll avenge it.
316
Check the control surfaces as you wish.
317
It's a Jarvis.
318
Sometimes you gotta run, but before you can walk.
319
One of the purest joys you can see in life is the face of an engineer
320
when his invention successfully does what he intended it to do.
321
That's exactly what happens with Tony Stark over here as well.
322
We all know how the Mark I had turned out, so it was obvious that the actual suit was also going to show up at some point.
323
Now, the Mark II is still not a finished product.
324
I mean, it didn't even have the cool iconic colors from the comics.
325
However, the test run was just as important as it was badass.
326
We got to see what the suit was capable of
327
and at the same time realized how much of a perfectionist Tony truly was.
328
Also, here's a piece of trivia for the movie nerds out there.
329
Tony actually asked Jarvis to check the control surfaces of the suit during this scene.
330
That's the general name given to the steering actuators in aircrafts.
331
I'll give you a check on control surfaces.
332
As you wish.
333
The director really dealt with the little details regarding the engineering aspects of this movie and I love it.
334
After all, it's stuff like this that shows you've put the work in.
335
Uh, it's been a while since I was in front of you, I figure I'll stick with cars this time.
336
I make wild accusations or insinuate that I'm a superhero.
337
I never said you're a superhero.
338
Fantastic.
339
The truth is, I am Iron Man.
340
We've finally hit the top ten, so we have to use an iconic moment to kick things off.
341
Well, how about the first time we hear the golden words, I am Iron Man?
342
Bro took decades of superhero wisdom
343
and flushed it all down the toilet with this one legendary Tony Stark may be known for his eccentric attitude, but he's also a man who likes to avoid all the drama
344
and get straight to the point Not only did he just
345
confirm his identity to the whole world He also showed
346
that he wasn't afraid of whoever might turn out to be
347
his enemy Iron Man stands for a lot of things
348
and courage has been proven to be one of the integral traits
349
that shaped his character You can try to write him a script and instruct him to play along with typical agendas, but then you'd be making a mistake Just like it was
350
shown here I also love the way Robert Downey Jr. Delivered his line with all
351
that charisma and charm He said it so effortlessly without adding any dramatic effect.
352
I mean, it just goes to show why there can never be another Iron Man.
353
Where to, sir?
354
Captivity for three months.
355
There are two things I want to do.
356
One, an American cheeseburger, and the other...
357
That's not it.
358
We can do this anyway.
359
It's kind of funny to think that 2013 was a full 10 years ago, but here we are calling back to the largely divisive Iron Man 3.
360
I say divisive because the critics didn't exactly call it a masterpiece and the hardcore Marvel fans weren't impressed either.
361
However, the movie still made over a billion dollars and that's all
362
that counts to the studios unless you want to focus on making all-time level classics like Martin Scorsese.
363
Now when it comes to Iron Man 3, I'll always put the play and rescue scene as my favorite.
364
Not only was the whole concept of using the hostages to save themselves brilliant, it was also preceded by one of the most brutal finisher moves that I've ever seen Tony execute.
365
Bro literally took a burning bald man and annihilated him with a hole in his chest.
366
Yeah, you can try to use as much extremist as you want.
367
You can never match the heat that Tony Stark brings to the table though.
368
Also, can we please talk about how he managed to do all of this without even leaving the boat?
369
Bro was social distancing from the crowd way before it was cool.
370
Remember that game called barrel of monkeys?
371
That's what we're gonna do.
372
Come on people, Everybody grab your money.
373
Nice.
374
Ten thousand feet.
375
Yeah!
376
One thousand feet.
377
I don't think people understand just how much Iron Man has done for them.
378
Everyone loves to criticise his lifestyle and mock him for being more successful than they'll ever be.
379
But nobody talks about the many times he's literally put his life on the line to ensure the common folk are saved.
380
Take the OG Avengers movie for example.
381
Tony was coming off a heated exchange with Captain America over his sense of morality.
382
And he proved him wrong instantly with this epic effort.
383
It almost seems poetic that Iron Man did this during the Battle of New York
384
because it was the first ever MCU battle that was grand and massive as far as the concept is concerned.
385
It obviously didn't disappoint in terms of action or visual direction, but it also gave us a completely different perspective on the man who made himself a reputation of being selfish and unkind.
386
On top of that, he also added delivering missiles to his endless list of skills.
387
Seeing the Iron Man eyes shut down during the finale gave me goosebumps because I obviously wasn't ready to lose him then.
388
Of course, I'm not saying that I was ready to lose lose him in Endgame either, but you get my vibe, right?
389
All that for a drop of blood.
390
The most unique aspect of being badass is the fact
391
that you're willing to risk it all even if you know you're no match for your opponent.
392
That's exactly what happened in the epic showdown between Iron Man and Thanos in Infinity War.
393
As much as I loved that nano suit, it would have been ridiculous for me to think
394
that Tony stood a chance against a purple titan who has four infinity stones
395
and is capable of defeating the freaking Hulk without even using one of them.
396
Despite that Iron Man gave Thanos a serious fight
397
and even made him bleed which says a lot about his character and resolve.
398
Think about it, it's just a normal human being inside a suit taking on what can only be described as an overpowered monster.
399
Bro put up a better fight than one-eyed Thor for crying out loud.
400
The very fact
401
that Tony Stark was ready to sacrifice his life for this shows how much of our respect he truly deserves.
402
Sidenote, why didn't he use that invincible laser of his that we saw in Iron Man 2?
403
Surely that would have made the Mad Titan bleed a little more, right? Did we just lose?
404
Why would you do that?
405
We're in the end game though.
406
He's not gonna stop.
407
Go.
408
You know, people keep talking about how you should be the bigger man in matters of conflict, but in this case, Tony was completely justified for choosing violence,
409
and I still think he's a much bigger man than Cap or Bucky could ever strive to become.
410
Like, come on, bro.
411
The only reason Steve was willing to fight the man who literally funds his existence was
412
because his besties' life was on the line.
413
This is the same Captain America who was taking lives during the war
414
and also shooting down people with a freaking gun in the first Avengers movie.
415
Yeah, don't you dare try to use that moral high ground nonsense here.
416
Plus, if you look at some of the fight moves, it was clear that they severely powered down Tony Su.
417
Having said that, Iron Man gave those two super soldiers a run for their money
418
and could have easily ended their lives too
419
if it wasn't for those silly writers showering Steve Rogers with loads of plot armor.
420
The man's already using a vibranium shield, which is technically stark property.
421
How much more are you gonna take from Iron Man?
422
For all you How I Met Your Mother fans, I'm sure you're aware of Barney Stinson's iconic line.
423
Tony Stark sure looked like a fan of that belief, because when it comes to someone like Iron Man, the concept of suiting up takes on a whole different meaning.
424
Just for clarity, This one's after the test run which I mentioned earlier so it's not the same thing.
425
Please don't come at me in the comments.
426
You know I feel like one of those lucky folks who
427
got to see the movie in the theatres way back in 2008 because that was just mwah.
428
Despite all the developments in the world of tech
429
and CGI there's just something about the late 2000s and early 2010s effects that make them so memorable.
430
Of course this was also the scene that cemented Robert Downey Jr as the official face of Iron Man.
431
God seeing the mask close in front of his face was such an epic moment.
432
I'm literally getting chills just thinking about it.
433
The whole thing was just one big W after the other, well, apart from the collateral damage that came with it.
434
The first suit I've seen was a great mix of charisma, humour and badassery, and that's exactly why it finds itself in my top 5.
435
You're Bruce Banner.
436
Right, right, right, right, don't mention Puny Banner.
437
To be honest with you, I wasn't expecting something as deadly as the Hulkbuster to be called Veronica.
438
But after seeing the beatdown with the Hulk, I don't think anyone's going to be complaining about it.
439
Bruce Banner's angry green alter ego was already given an elevated reputation leading into this film.
440
After all, he did knock out a freaking Leviathan with just one punch.
441
So when Tony took it upon himself to defeat the Hulk, not a lot of us were confident about it.
442
However, the Hulkbuster proved us wrong and also gave us one of the most memorable battles of the entire MCU.
443
I mean, the whole thing felt so grand.
444
It was almost as if they were watching the finale of a movie.
445
If you were to ask me which scene I'd pick as my favourite from Age of Ultron, it would have to be this one because we got to see a whole different side to Tony's capabilities,
446
even though the suit was made in collaboration with Bruce.
447
Also, it's always a bonus flex if you buy a freaking building in the middle of your encounter with an overpowered giant.
448
Technically speaking, this is the first fight that Hulk loses in the MCU, and that's an amazing honour to possess.
449
How could they can we buy this building?
450
Tony Stark is a legitimate danger and it's not just
451
because he has the most high-tech suits on the planet at his disposal.
452
He's got the brain of a literal god and can make a deadly weapon using nothing more than basic scraps.
453
The cave escape scene from the OG Iron Man film proves this point
454
because how the heck are you able to take down an
455
entire group of terrorists with something simple as the Mark 1 suit?
456
It was badass enough that he was able to create something out of basically nothing, and even more badass that he managed to get out of such a tricky situation all by himself.
457
Well he did have Ho Yin send for additional support, but it was Tony who eventually managed to get the job done.
458
None of us knew what we were getting into when we walked into the cinema halls back in 2008, and that feeling of excitement when Tony said,
459
my turn, is something that can never be replicated in my opinion.
460
It truly was a badass scene spearheaded by a man who had full control over the situation.
461
You know, I was kind of hoping he kept some kind of remodeled version of this suit just for the sake of nostalgia.
462
Come on now, if the list is as expansive as this one,
463
I just have to include what is easily the most memorable line in all of MCU history.
464
Well, maybe apart from the I am Iron Man, but you get what I mean.
465
The rivalry between Tony Stark and Steve Rogers is something that I've never been able to understand.
466
Like, Iron Man takes the cake every single time he's a better fighter.
467
And yes, that includes not caring about that buyer's Civil War finale.
468
He's got more money than God himself.
469
He's always a hit with the ladies.
470
And you couldn't buy that kind of sass even if you had Elon Musk-level wealth.
471
And then there's Captain America, who has his first kiss in over 70 years.
472
That too, from his girlfriend's niece.
473
Yeah, I don't think Steve had any right trying to act all high and mighty in front of an alpha male.
474
Of course, Tony's always up for a challenge, so he hits back with the classic genius, billionaire, playboy, philanthropist line.
475
Yep, that's how a Giga Chad marks his territory and owns a freaking scene.
476
Steve might not have liked to admit it, but I'm sure that epic line would have made him wish he'd stayed frozen.
477
Why shouldn't the guy let off a little steam?
478
You know damn well why.
479
Back off.
480
You better stop pretending to be a hero.
481
A hero?
482
Like you?
483
You're a laboratory experiment, Rogers.
484
I am Inhabitable I am
485
I am happy
486
It's kind of an easy choice to give this moment the number one spot
487
because nothing can ever come close to the greatness we've got to witness here.
488
They say the first mark of a true badass is his willingness to sacrifice it all for the greater good.
489
Contrary to what Captain America might have believed Tony was always that guy.
490
If the first Iron Man movie was the spark that ignited the MCU juggernaut, then Tony Stark's snap was the explosion that elevated the franchise to its peak.
491
It's baffling to think that a single character could have such a massive impact on a brand
492
that makes billions of dollars as if it's just another day in the park.
493
And yet here's Tony Stark, the man who started it all and the man who ended it as well.
494
Be honest with me.
495
Does the MCU hit the same way ever since Iron Man left us?
496
Do you look forward to grabbing your tickets to the next Marvel movie just
497
because you know you're gonna see that one character who always steals the show?
498
This is the legacy that Iron Man has left behind, and no one is ever gonna get close.
499
I'm willing to bet my life on it.
500
Robert Downey Jr., you will always have my respect.
501
Hope you like the video, so please subscribe to the TV region, and here's another video that I know you'll enjoy.

Thank you.

Why Practice Speaking with This Iron Man Video?
Learning English with videos like this one is a fun way to boost your speaking skills—especially if you love Marvel! The fast-paced, conversational tone mirrors real-life discussions, making it perfect for english speaking practice. Try shadowspeak (repeating lines aloud as you watch) to mimic the speaker’s energy and rhythm. It’s a great way to sound more natural, whether you’re chatting about movies or sharing opinions. Plus, the mix of casual phrases and dramatic lines gives you versatile language to use in different contexts.
Grammar & Expressions in Context
The video is packed with lively language. Let’s break down a few key structures:
- Colloquial exclamations: “Whew, it's good to be back” and “Oh my god, you crazy son of a f*” show how to express surprise or relief in informal settings. These phrases add personality to your speech.
- Conditional statements: “If that wasn't enough, he kept killing…” uses a past conditional to emphasize a point. This structure is useful for storytelling or explaining sequences.
- Sarcastic retorts: “My only curse is you” and “I wouldn't consider him a role model” demonstrate sarcasm, a common tool in friendly banter. Mastering this helps you sound more engaging in conversations.
Practice these with a shadowing app to nail their delivery!
Common Pronunciation Traps
Some words in the video might trip you up. Let’s spot them:
- “Nanotech”: Pronounced “NAN-oh-tek,” not “nan-OH-tek.” The stress is on the first syllable.
- “Leviathan”: Say “luh-VY-uh-thuhn,” not “LEE-vy-athan.” Listen closely to the speaker’s emphasis on the second syllable.
- “Chitauri”: This alien race is pronounced “kih-TAH-ree,” with a soft “ch” sound. Don’t over-enunciate the “t.”
Use shadow speech to repeat these words until they feel natural. You’ll sound like a pro in no time!
Grammar in this video
The structures the speaker uses most, with the exact words from the video:
| Structure | In the video |
|---|---|
| Conditional sentences if + clause, will/would + verb — a condition and its result | If you even cared, you'd actually · if I was in his place, I'd probably |
| Present perfect have/has + past participle — a past action that still matters now | you've just booked · have forgotten · we've learned |
| Passive voice be + past participle — the focus is on what happens, not who does it | be blown · were hyped · was born |
| Relative clauses who / which + clause — extra information about a person or thing | suit, which is · life which is · man who likes |
What is the Shadowing Technique?
Shadowing is a science-backed language learning technique originally developed for professional interpreter training and popularized by polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. The method is simple but powerful: you listen to native English audio and immediately repeat it out loud — like a shadow following the speaker with just a 1–2 second delay. Unlike passive listening or grammar drills, shadowing forces your brain and mouth muscles to simultaneously process and reproduce real speech patterns. Research shows it significantly improves pronunciation accuracy, intonation, rhythm, connected speech, listening comprehension, and speaking fluency — making it one of the most effective methods for IELTS Speaking preparation and real-world English communication.
