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

7. Calling For Backup (Iron Man 3)

In the final battle with Aldrich Killian in Iron Man 3, Tony Stark and James Rhodes trace Killian to a damaged oil tanker that the villain has commandeered. There, he intends to kill American president Ellis on live television. Stark and Rhodes arrive on the platform with good intentions - Stark goes to save Potts, as Rhodes attempts to save the president - but they are hopelessly outmatched, as neither of them is wearing armour and there are countless Extremis soldiers keeping watch. Stark, however, summons his Iron Man suits, controlled remotely by JARVIS, to provide air support. As they approach en masse from behind, he looks like the most bad-ass man to ever have walked the Earth.
