41 Greatest Moments In The Marvel Cinematic Universe

4. The Avengers – “Puny god.”
Why are people so adamant in wanting to insult and talk down to the Hulk? Do they not know what’s coming to them?
Look, Loki is a smart guy. You have to be if you’re a trickster god. But this guy really needs to think before he speaks. When the Hulk throws Loki through a Stark Tower window and stampedes towards him, the arrogant Asgardian commands the Hulk to stop. In a brief standstill, Loki launches into a verbal assault reasserting his own position as a god and calling the Hulk a “dull creature.”
The Hulk is an angry being, not a stupid one. And he surely understands basic physics, which in the Hulk’s mind translates to, “Hulk bigger than Loki.” Before Loki can say another word, the Hulk grabs him by his ankles and slams him on the floor multiple times.
The comedic beating is concluded when the Hulk leaves Loki whimpering in pain. Our green-skinned friend then gives his evaluation of Loki as a “puny god.”
