Tony Stark, created for Marvel Comics and brought to film by Robert Downey Jr. in Iron Man in 2008, became one of the most quoted characters in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. Short voice clips of the character have circulated for years on soundboards, in fan edits and across social video, where fans reuse his confident one-liners as reactions and punchlines. Because Stark is instantly recognisable even from a few seconds of audio, these brief clips remain popular for Marvel edits, memes and gaming montages long after the films first appeared.
