13 Marvel Movie Moments When Tony Stark Looked Totally Bad-Ass

12. Presenting The Jericho Missile (Iron Man)

In the first Iron Man movie - before Tony Stark actually was Iron Man - Stark gave a demonstration of his company's new "Jericho" missile in war-torn Afghanistan with his friend and military liaison, Lieutenant Colonel James Rhodes, and the U.S. military watching on. Stark gives a very cool and typically informal speech, before giving the signal to fire the missile, which promptly sets on its journey towards the mountains in the background and breaking in to smaller pieces to affect a larger area. Just prior to the impact of the missiles, Stark says "for your consideration... the Jericho", spreads his arms as if to present the event, and the weapons proceed to smash a large area to smithereens. It is so calm and collected that even the little step forward that the collateral effects of the blast cause him to do doesn't make him look any less bad-ass.
