Prepare For Civil War: 25 Greatest Iron Man Moments In The Marvel Cinematic Universe
By Steve Lam
#5 – Iron Man vs. Thor in the Forest
From: The Avengers (2012)
What happens when you have two headstrong people wanting the same thing? You get an epic battle that levels a forest. After taking Loki into custody, SHIELD’s Quinjet is invaded by Thor, who wants his brother back on Asgard to stand trial for his crimes. Tony, believing that Loki should be under his custody, goes after Thor.
An airborne Iron Man tackles Thor and crash lands him into a forest. The two trade a few quips at first, with Iron Man doing most of the insulting. The verbal feud quickly escalates to a battle of Mjolnir-powered lightning and repulsor blasts. At one point, Thor unknowingly charges Iron Man, which allows the Golden Avenger to blast Thor with a full dose of his own medicine.
When Captain America steps in to stop the fight, Thor attempts to strike him. However, Cap raises his shield in defense. As the two legendary weapons collide, a powerful shockwave knocks the three Avengers over and levels the forest. That, my friend, is how you end a super-powered fight.
