Silly little reminder that when Hulk did this (rant ahead)
He was throwing around a creature who is considered to be 500+ lbs because he and Thor both have super high muscle and bone density, so Hulk is literally tossing around a guy (that's super fucking heavy) like he's a stuffed animal. (Cont. below)
And that wasn't even his entire strength, because he didn't even break a FUCKING SWEAT!! so why the hell did he lose all the other battles in the MCU? Because the writers won't show how strong he is!! HE LITERALLY DID THIS TO SURTUR
HE FUCKING KNOCKED SURTUR AROUND LIKE A PUNCHING BAG
THE BEING RESPONSIBLE FOR EXECUTING RAGNAROK AND THE ONE WHO LITERALLY DESTROYED THE ENTIRETY OF ASGARD AND WAS THE ONLY SUPPOSED THING THAT COULD HAVE BEAT HELA (Hulk could have) WAS KNOCKED AROUND LIKE A GODDAMN PUNCHING BAG!!
And also, may I just point out that Hulk wouldn't have been scared of Thanos? That was so OOC for him it genuinely hurt me. Hulk loves fighting people as strong if not stronger than him. That's why he fights Thor so much. That's why the idea of him fighting Void and Sentry are coming up so much. He would have wanted to fight Thanos. And if I am mathematically correct, BASE Sentry could wipe the floor with Thanos. Maybe not wipe the floor, but win. And if Hulk and BASE SENTRY brawled, they would literally fight until they turned back into Bruce and Bob (this has happened in Canon). The only reason Hulk "won" was because Bruce was so pissed he beat the shit out of Bob, because Bob didn't wanna fight because it's Bob.
And another little thing? I'm not disrespecting Tony Stark at all, but if Tony could handle the Infinity Gauntlet then Smart Hulk should have been able to as well. It makes no sense to me why literal Hulk couldn't, but Tony could. Even if Tony had the upgraded one, Hulk is literally so much stronger than Tony. Tony's feat was ridiculously impressive, but MCU writers absolutely shit on Hulk.
you know I think it was strange how some fans of the hulk blame mark ruffalo for bringing a weaker version of the character, and prefer edward norton being that even with the change of actors, the character is still the same the script that was chosen would still be the same, after all ai would be the marvel and his usual ideas, only with a different actor because people don't see it, whenever they speak fo Mark the fans call his attention so it is annoying 😒.
I completely agree... it is annoying but Ed Norton gave up his role of Bruce banner saying he didn't want to be tied down to obligations of staring in a superhero franchise which is basically stating that he just wasn't ready to play the character in the reoccurring future, but let's thank joss whedon for giving us Mark Ruffalo because I've never been more invested in a character like I am in his. I definitely didn't think Mark brought a weaker character because if you say that I'll take it as the previous person who played Bruce banner (Ed Norton) started the career with a weak character/development and mark just wanted to adapt to the character he was given
so in conclusion Mark Ruffalo's Bruce banner character was better and I want no criticism, thank you :)
