== Anime and Manga ==

* ''[[JoJo's Bizarre Adventure]]'''s Giorno Giovanna can seem calm at the most tense of moments, but really, he is just plotting your demise in a very sneaky and sometimes quite horrific way. The best example of this is {{spoiler|once he gains Gold Experience Requiem and faces off with Diavolo floating in the air with his new stand}}.

 

== Live-Action TV ==

* In ''[[Doctor Who]]'', the Tenth Doctor, in contrast to the [[Unstoppable Rage|Ninth Doctor]], is very fond of doing this. At the big showdowns against the Sycorax (Christmas special 2005), the Racnoss (Christmas special 2006), the Family of Blood (2007), and the Vashta Nerada (2008) he has displayed very little emotion. [[No Indoor Voice|Then again, loud is his normal state.]]

** In "The Christmas Invasion", the Doctor kills the Sycorax leader by arising open the floor beneath his feet, announcing "No second chances. I'm that sort of man." Moments later, he has a second moment against the Prime Minister, after she shoots down the retreating fleet, killing thousands needlessly, as he sees it. He talks over her pleas, saying "I could bring down your government with a single word... No... six words. Six." He whispered to her aide, "Don't you think she looks tired?" This ''alters the course of history'' and strongly reverbarates all the way through to the end of series 3 of ''Doctor Who'' and the ''[[Torchwood]]'' miniseries ''[[Torchwood: Children of Earth|Children of Earth]]''.
