Iron Man: Obadiah Stane (Jeff Bridges)

Comments for death : Iron Man: Obadiah Stane (Jeff Bridges).

Actually, the Iron Monger suit is just the Mark I suit that Stark escaped in re-built. Also, would Not Quite Dead be good for Stane's survival of his fall?

Are you sure? The prototype suit is shown in the film intact, leading to the joke from Pepper that she "thought it would be bigger", right before the real Iron Monger suit strides into view.

It's true that Stane never actually names himself as the Iron Monger in the film, but he does hint at it early on when he tells Stark "We're Iron Mongers!".

From WikiPedia:
"Two Iron Monger figures are featured in the initial Iron Man film toy line by Hasbro, one of which features removable armor that reveals Jeff Bridges' character."
[en.wikipedia.org]

Ah, maybe that's me mis-remembering then. Although you might want to mention that Obadiah made the Monger from Stark's original blueprint when he (well, his men anyway) kills Raza.

EDIT: This marks the 100th Explosion death.

I think this ought to qualify as "Not Quite Dead..." since he plummets to his death due to the icing problem before attacking Stark again. I thought he was dead at that point.

Also I think it was Pepper who killed Stane, not Stark. Pepper was the one who activated the nuclear reactor which killed Stane.

Yeah, Pepper DID kill him.
