1 | '''Everyone''' gets their moment at some point, though some characters stand out more than others: |
2 | * Captain America is kind of a snarky bastard—which is fitting for a guy who spent the first twenty-odd years of his life as a pipsqueak whose only real weapon was his mouth. |
3 | * Naturally, ''Film/IronMan'' has its titular armored hero Tony Stark, which then gets taken to the next level in ''Film/{{The Avengers|2012}}'', and even moreso in ''Film/IronMan3''. Said film is even directed by the already-mentioned Shane Black. |
4 | ** Some of his better ones are as follows: |
5 | --->'''Brandt:''' Really? That's all you've got? A cheap trick and a cheesy one-liner?\ |
6 | '''Tony:''' Sweetheart, that could be the name of my autobiography. |
7 | --->'''Christine Everheart:''' Mr. Stark, you've been called the Da Vinci of our time. What do you say to that?\ |
8 | '''Tony:''' Absolutely ridiculous, I don't paint. |
9 | --->'''Captain America:''' Wait, Stark! We need a plan of attack!\ |
10 | '''Tony:''' I do have a plan. Attack. |
11 | ** And so on. |
12 | * It doesn't stop there. He programmed JARVIS to be this for SnarkToSnarkCombat. |
13 | * ''Film/{{Thor}}'': |
14 | ** Clint Barton, when a group of S.H.I.E.L.D agents unsuccessfully tries to stop Thor from entering the facility: |
15 | --->'''Clint:''' Do you want me to take him down or would you rather send in more guys for him to beat up?\ |
16 | '''Clint:''' You better call it Coulson, cause I'm starting to root for this guy. |
17 | ** Then, in ''Film/{{The Avengers|2012}}'', "Clint" turns out to be Hawkeye and joins a whole [[WorldOfSnark Team of Snarkers]]. |
18 | ** Loki, who seems to become snarkier with each film. |
19 | --->'''Loki:''' ''[in a casual tone of voice]'' It's good to have you back. Now if you'll excuse me, [[spoiler:I have to destroy Jotunheim.]] |
20 | ** Sif, who mostly snarks good-naturedly at her friends. |
21 | * Thor gets his own good-natured snark moment at Sif in ''Film/ThorTheDarkWorld'': |
22 | -->'''Sif:''' I've got this completely under control.\ |
23 | '''Thor:''' ''[looks around at the destruction]'' Is that why everything's on fire? |
24 | ::: He ramps up the snark considerably in ''Film/ThorRagnarok''. |
25 | --->'''Loki:''' I can't see into the future, I'm not a witch!\ |
26 | '''Thor:''' ''[looks at Loki's all black suit]'' No? Then why do your dress like one? |
27 | * [[WorldOfSnark Everyone]] in ''Film/AvengersAgeOfUltron'', [[CreatorThumbprint as par the course for a Whedon script.]] Even Ultron gets in on it. |
28 | -->'''Tony:''' What's the Vibranium for?\ |
29 | '''Ultron:''' [[SarcasmMode I'm glad you asked that]] [[EvilGloating because I wanted to take this time]] [[GenreSavvy to explain my evil plan]]! |
30 | * Nick Fury. Full stop. |
31 | -->'''World Security Council:''' Director Fury, the council has made a [[NukeEm decision]].\ |
32 | '''Nick Fury:''' I recognize that the council has made a decision, but given that it’s a ''[[SophisticatedAsHell stupid-ass]]'' decision, I’ve elected to ignore it. |
33 | * Scott Lang has many moments too. Sometimes [[LampshadeHanging lampshading]] tropes about the franchise itself, like the characters often using PaperThinDisguise to blend in. |
34 | -->'''Scott Lang:''' These aren’t disguises. We look like ourselves at a baseball game. |
35 | * And of course, ComicBook/SpiderMan eventually joined the universe. |
36 | -->''[A gang of thugs are robbing a bank wearing cartoonish Avengers masks]''\ |
37 | '''Spider-Man:''' ''[in trailers]'' Wait a minute, you guys aren’t the real Avengers! I can tell! [[TheBigGuy The Hulk]] gives it away. |
38 | ** His eventual girlfriend, MJ is even snarkier than him. |
39 | ** [[spoiler:When the [[Film/SpiderManTrilogy other two]] [[Film/TheAmazingSpiderManSeries cinematic incarnations]] of ComicBook/SpiderMan arrive in the MCU in ''Film/SpiderManNoWayHome'', they both prove to be as snarky as the average Marvel lead.]] |
40 | ** [[spoiler:Even the Raimi-Verse Spider-Man is shown to have his moments of snark, despite not being very snarky in his own movies.]] |
41 | --->[[spoiler:'''Peter 3:''' Max was like... the sweetest guy ever. Before he fell into a pool of electric eels.]]\ |
42 | [[spoiler:'''Peter 2:''' [[BlackComedy That'll do it.]]]] |
43 | ** [[spoiler:The Webb-Verse Spider-Man is also as snarky as he was in his films.]] |
44 | --->[[spoiler:'''Peter-3:''' So are you [Peter 2] gonna go into battle dressed like a cool youth pastor or do you have a suit?]] |
45 | * Wanda Maximoff, while less so than other characters, has her moments too. [[JustifiedTrope Justified]], as she used to watch old American sitcoms with her family as a child. |
46 | -->'''Dr. Strange:''' Your children aren't real. You created them with magic.\ |
47 | '''Wanda:''' ''[eyes wide with faux-innocence]'' That's what every mother does. |
48 | * Doctor Strange as played by Creator/BenedictCumberbatch is very snarky. He even manages to give Tony Stark a run for his money in ''Film/AvengersInfinityWar'' when they converse. |
49 | -->'''Strange:''' … [[ComicBook/{{Thanos}} He]] could destroy life on a scale hitherto undreamt of.\ |
50 | '''Tony:''' ''[leaning on a large cauldron and stretching his legs]'' Did you ''seriously'' just say [[AntiquatedLinguistics "hitherto undreamt of"]]? \ |
51 | '''Strange:''' Are you seriously leaning on the Cauldron of the Cosmos? |
52 | ** He doesn't stop snarking even when he is in [[Film/DoctorStrangeInTheMultiverseOfMadness a different universe (Earth-838, to be precise)]], while handcuffed and being introduced to the Illuminati. |
53 | --->'''838-Mordo:''' …The Smartest man alive, Reed Richards, of the ComicBook/FantasticFour.\ |
54 | '''838-Reed Richards:''' Hello Stephen. \ |
55 | '''Dr. Strange:''' Fantastic Four? ''[smirking]'' Didn’t you guys chart in the '60s?\ |
56 | ''[[[ActuallyPrettyFunny Reed smiles]]]''\ |
57 | '''838-Captain Marvel:''' I’m sorry, is this a joke to you?\ |
58 | '''Dr. Strange:''' Well, there’s a guy over there with a fork on his head so, yeah. Little bit. |
59 | ** He also gets in a lot of SnarkToSnarkCombat with Wong, who is as much of a snarker as Strange himself. |
60 | * Thanos also lets out a fair share of snide quips. |
61 | -->'''Loki:''' If I might interject… If you're going to Earth, you might want a guide. I do have a bit of experience in that arena.\ |
62 | '''Thanos:''' If you consider failure "experience." |
63 | * What makes Thanos's successor as the MCU's BigBad Kang an effective KnightOfCerebus is the fact that he ''lacks'' any snark in his first appearance. |
64 | * With [[ComicBook/{{Deadpool}} Deadpool]] finally arriving in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, Wade Wilson continues his extremely snarky trend from his comic book and previous live-action film appearances. |
