The final battle in Avengers. Hulk got bombarded by the chitauri, next time we see him, a few minutes later he is just getting back up, which suggests he was down for a bit.
And what though? Once he recovers from the fire, which would have killed everyone else in the team including Thor, he catches Tony out of midair, no worse for the wear. Which is the point. Hulk can be suppressed by massive fire power, but can recover very quickly and goes about smashing again, showing no signs of it.

Okay. Where are you getting the idea that the fire would have killed Thor? Because it put down Hulk, logically it must mean it can kill Thor?


When Hulk was down, what if they kept firing at him? Till he was unconscious?
 
Smh just ignore the fact that Loki had the scepter when he fought Thor and was unarmed when he fought Hulk.

We're also ignoring the fact that Loki was suprise attacked mid sentence by Hulk while he squared off with Thor in a "fair fight".
 
These power level arguments are always hilarious.

I see the difference of your comments. I already said I specifically disproved the statement that Hulk showed no signs of physical damage (he's clearly bleeding from his nose when he's getting up from the rubble a good while later, which is of course minor damage but that was not the point you made). I did that because it renders any discussion pointless if it's not based on the proper facts. That's the first step to take, then we can do the comparisons.
Listen, because I am going to clarify my points in this post. Do you understand that? I am going to be very clear so there is no more misunderstanding. I was rushing earlier, I had things to do, still do, but now I am going to try and be very precise, least of all you try and ignore the point.

Can Hulk theoretically be killed? Yes. Meaning he can be hurt. My point is that he is clearly far more durable then Thor. This is your "bleeding" Hulk.

Now I am not even sure that is blood, but I will give it to you. And what did it take to do that to him? Huge fire power over a length of time. And it didn't even put him out. He got up moments later, and rescues Tony.

I'm talking Thor in the MCU, and I though everyone were as we've only given movie examples. In the comics Thor has clearly greater feats so there's less need to compare there. As for Cap in the MCU, it remains to be seen if he's worthy. The trailer clearly indicates that he's just close as he fails to lift it.
Cap can move it. It shows worthiness. No one else has been able to move it even a bit, including Thor, when not "worthy".

Mjölnir;30703697 said:
The discussion wasn't about Thor without Mjolnir when you jumped in, nor did I see you specify that, so therefor I saw no reason to comment on anything like that. People were talking about them being shown as equals in their fight, which contained Thor using Mjolnir. And what is supporting that Hulk wasn't in full rage when he was uncontrollable? Anger is not unlimited. It's far more likely that the heroes' strength levels will depend on what individual scenes need as superhero movies really don't hold up to the scrutiny we're currently applying.
My point is this. If want to talk about the qualities of two opponent, it seems bizarre to say one is on the same level as long as he is allowed to bring a weapon. If one guy brings a bat or a gun to a fist fight and wins, does that suddenly make him a better fighter? No. Thor needs Mjolnir to even compete with the Hulk, and that is all he is doing, competing. He isn't going to win. He hit him, full in the face, no protection, and Hulk flies back, stumbles a bit, shakes it off, and proceeds to continue fighting.

Which is why Mjolnir is important. Thor has shown to not be all that capable without it in MCU. Loki has shown more ability, if not brute strength. I don't believe he has even used lightning without it, which is why no one is sure what is going on in the AoU trailer.

And I think you are missing the point of the psychology of the Hulk. He can always get angrier. The bigger the threat, the more he can draw upon. It is why Bruce can't kill himself. He can be zen like a monk, and still his anger will rise to protect him. Just look at the AoU trailer. That beast is something we haven't come close to see.

Mjölnir;30703697 said:
That's not hostility, it's a clarifying comment since you keep saying something different after I point out errors in what you said. If you're not going to take responsibility for what you say then the discussion is pointless, and that can be said without being hostile if that is unclear. Without taking responsibility and arguing from that we stop having a reasonable discussion and rather fall into some contest to "win". Again I was pointing out that you stated an incorrect fact and, as said, the discussion is irrelevant if the facts are wrong.
No, it was hostile. I corrected you without being a jerk on the Thor flying thing. You can't help yourself because you are clearly fanboyin'. Which is fine, until you get hostile about it.

Mjölnir;30703697 said:
And Thor might just duck because he doesn't know what the plane guns do. Just because we don't see him being able to survive those rounds doesn't mean that he can't. Absence of evidence is not evidence of absence. We also see Sif save him from being shot by an arrow in TDW and saying "you're welcome", but just after that Thor actually does get shot by one and it does nothing to him. With your logic the first case would have stated that he couldn't take the arrow.
I just realized something. Loki is not an Asgardian. Whether he can take a bullet or not is irrelevant, because he is a Frost Giant, not an Asgardian. You are going to need another example, because Loki does not actually apply. :yay:

But here is my overall logic. Thor, along with other Asgardians have shown to be vulnerable quite often. They don't walk around in armor or have an healing room for no reason. Plenty of dead Asgardians in TDW. The Frost Giants weapon hurt Fandral I believe. Thor has been beat up, cut up, and injured more then once. They aren't paper people, but they aren't Thor durable.

Mjölnir;30703697 said:
That's true, my statement wasn't correct when put in that general manner. He's always whirled it when he starts flying from an already stationary position though and only done anything else when Mjolnir already had forward momentum of it's own. Also if he used Mjolnir to fly he wouldn't have had any reason to hit the ground as he can fly way faster than the speed he was falling at, which further strengthens the interpretation that he just jumped out through the glass.
Mjolnir isn't a cure all to flying, just like how Superman has limits when he is moving at a very fast speed. When Thor goes through the glass, he lands at an angle indicating a momentum shift. He almost slides in to the ground. Mjolnir also bounces like in one direction , showing a lot of momentum.

But my overall point is this. If it isn't a problem for him, why does he need to escape the chamber? If landing at full speed isn't a problem for him, why do they emphasis his need to escape?

Mjölnir;30703697 said:
Thor jumping horizontally would not change the speed of which he impacted the ground because he was pushing off something that was moving at the same speed. What could differ is the air resistance when he broke out of the cage, but it would be negligible.
If it doesn't matter, explain the emphasis on Thor escaping the chamber.

Mjölnir;30703697 said:
I don't know what you're trying to say here. I only know that you told me that I need to rewatch the movie when you were the one being wrong, and now you're completely ignoring that you did.
Because you are missing my point. The Hulk lands completely unharmed. If he was injured by the fall, Banner would have been injured by the fall. He is perfectly fine when he wakes up. He took a straight fall from the heaven was perfectly fine.

Mjölnir;30703697 said:
"No, just no"? Seriously, that's the way we're arguing now? That Hulk smacked Loki easier than Thor did has nothing to do with that it's a bigger feat to destroy twice as much with one attack.

But to comment on the actual comparison, ignoring the false facts, Hulk has shown more durability and Thor has shown the biggest damage output.
The Hulk is clearly more durable and physically stronger. Thor shoots lightning using Mjolnir, that is great. The Hulk destroys at least as many space whales with his bare hands. Thus what the Hulk does is far more impressive. He does the same, if not more damage then Thor, using his body as a weapon. He throws himself into ships. That is a bigger feat imo and far more impressive.

Because I have seen many Asgardians die to similar weaponry and because Thor goes out of his way to defend against their weaponry. TDW was a blood bath.

Smh just ignore the fact that Loki had the scepter when he fought Thor and was unarmed when he fought Hulk.

We're also ignoring the fact that Loki was suprise attacked mid sentence by Hulk while he squared off with Thor in a "fair fight".
Suprised attacked? Hulk was going in for the kill and Loki started yelling. The Hulk was stunned for a moment, but continued on. Not sure what you expected the scepter to do to protect Loki though, I am curious. The Hulk says this to that type of energy:

OK, not to wade into this s**tshow too much here
but I can give you another example

Sif took a shotgun blast to the gut at point blank in AoS without flinching

Therefore, ipso facto, Asgardians are definitively bullet proof, at least to puny human weapons
Thor's dodging in Avengers was probably more a battle instinct than anything

Now the chitauri weapons? I guess they could be more damaging to Asgardians, but Thor didn't seem too concerned about their little laser pistols

A shotgun shot is not the same thing as the guns on a jet. The different in caliber is quite something. Which was my point with Loki, even if it doesn't count anymore. And if Thor wasn't concerned, why did he continually block their fire? You mention instinct, but that doesn't apply to Sif?
 
It was point blank
she turned around and the guy shot her

and I'd like to see a Mythbusters comparing the damage from a 50 cal from a football field away vs. a shotgun at point blank
not sure how that damage would compare

Thor isn't any Asgardian. And that bombardment of laser fire Hulk received was like 20 seconds, IIRC. That is green blood coming from his nose, and next time we see Hulk, it's MINUTES later. Not moments. Minutes, which suggests that Hulk was down for a few minutes and needed some time to recover. I can't really see an excuse to explain that away. He got shot, then he's just lifting his head a few minutes later.

That seemed to be Hulk's threshold

Hahha, who would win discussions are always a blast, quite literally haha :P

I'm having a great time discussing this, but if people think it's time for this to die down (which it's been what, a day now?) Then I'm willing to let it go too haha
 
Haha we really should have a Battles section.

Though it seems these battles happen primarily when we don't really have anything else to talk about. We need AoU already so we can start talking about Thor as a character again.

Though of course afterwards, after seeing new feats from both Hulk and Thor, we'll have more fuel for the fire when it comes time for another VS discussion. It's like an never ending cycle.

I don't have time for this ****, like I've said before this is so played out.

not in these threads tho. Take it to the Avengers World thread. lol

You don't really need to keep arguing the points that I haven't contested. My last post already had me plainly write that I think Hulk is the more durable of the two.

Cap can move it. It shows worthiness. No one else has been able to move it even a bit, including Thor, when not "worthy".

No, because the enchantment on Mjolnir clearly says that if you are worthy you shall possess the power of Thor. Cap did not get any possession of that power. It's an "almost worthy" kind of deal.

My point is this. If want to talk about the qualities of two opponent, it seems bizarre to say one is on the same level as long as he is allowed to bring a weapon. If one guy brings a bat or a gun to a fist fight and wins, does that suddenly make him a better fighter? No. Thor needs Mjolnir to even compete with the Hulk, and that is all he is doing, competing. He isn't going to win. He hit him, full in the face, no protection, and Hulk flies back, stumbles a bit, shakes it off, and proceeds to continue fighting.

He can be zen like a monk, and still his anger will rise to protect him. Just look at the AoU trailer. That beast is something we haven't come close to see.

That's a pretty weird opinion when it comes to superheroes, seeing how they will always be fighting with various weapons vs unarmed, etc. But if that's what you think then that's what you think. I will not share that notion however since Mjolnir is a very intricate part of who Thor is.

Thor was closer to winning the fight than Hulk was. Rocking someone means that you came reasonably close to knocking him out. You don't have to be a martial artist to know that, it's clear from just watching any forms of striking combat sports. Hulk got a perfect clean shot in on Thor as well, and it had Thor get a nosebleed and a smile on his face. Then there's of course the fact that Thor was holding back, trying to reason with Banner, being constricted by not wanting to hurt the surroundings, and of course not using all of his powers. Hulk, on the other hand, was in an uncontrollable rage. The MCU has never talked about Hulk getting stronger when he's angrier, so we can only speculate that it's the case, but he clearly was as angry as we've ever seen him. The final battle in the movie shows that Hulk distinguishes friend from foe pretty easily if he's not extremely angry, as he sees Thor as friend despite that all he's (the Hulk himself that is) seen of Thor is from fighting him.

And yes, Thor is closely connected to Mjolnir and his powers seem based on it to a good extent in the MCU. It kind of makes sense since in the comics Thor is pretty much the other Avengers combined, apart from genius intellect. He can hit harder than Hulk, take almost as much punishment, he can fly faster than Iron Man, he has more combat experience than Cap, etc. They probably powered him down to make everyone have it easier to shine. Still, the way he fought in Jotunheim seems more capable than anything we've seen in the MCU. Given what happened to the Hulk when he got hit by Mjolnir it wouldn't be good for anyone to come at Thor when he's whirling it around. They might be stepping away from that kind of action though.

I'm well aware that point with the Hulk (in the comics, it's still not said to be the case here) but it's always been a pretty dumb thing to say that Hulk's strength is unlimited because he gets stronger when he's angry. Emotions aren't unlimited and if they were Hulk's anger should more likely make him unable to act coherently at all after a while.

No, it was hostile. I corrected you without being a jerk on the Thor flying thing. You can't help yourself because you are clearly fanboyin'. Which is fine, until you get hostile about it.

No, it was just simply telling you to take responsibility for what you write instead of trying to hide things that were wrong. If anything it's you that's arguing in a rude way. You're telling me that you know my emotions and intentions better than I do, you're telling me to rewatch a movie despite that I'm the one that was right on all accounts, and now you just dismiss me as "fanboying". I have little interest in discussing with someone with that attitude (including that you still seem to avoid acknowledging when you were wrong) so I probably won't keep going after this post.

I just realized something. Loki is not an Asgardian. Whether he can take a bullet or not is irrelevant, because he is a Frost Giant, not an Asgardian. You are going to need another example, because Loki does not actually apply.

But here is my overall logic. Thor, along with other Asgardians have shown to be vulnerable quite often. They don't walk around in armor or have an healing room for no reason. Plenty of dead Asgardians in TDW. The Frost Giants weapon hurt Fandral I believe. Thor has been beat up, cut up, and injured more then once. They aren't paper people, but they aren't Thor durable.

That's true. Thor has been shown to be more durable but to be exact we can't just use them as analogs. Sif was shot at in AoS though and it didn't do anything.

That they use armor doesn't really say much when it comes to taking bullets. As I showed, they parry things that do not harm them. Sif is a good example as she both parried smaller shots than the one that didn't affect her when she was hit, plus that she parried that arrow that was shot against Thor, when the second just bounced off him without any effect. We of course see even more of this in the comics where Thor is using armor that has gotten trashed without him having a scratch on him.

Mjolnir isn't a cure all to flying, just like how Superman has limits when he is moving at a very fast speed. When Thor goes through the glass, he lands at an angle indicating a momentum shift. He almost slides in to the ground. Mjolnir also bounces like in one direction , showing a lot of momentum.

But my overall point is this. If it isn't a problem for him, why does he need to escape the chamber? If landing at full speed isn't a problem for him, why do they emphasis his need to escape?

Thor has momentum in two directions when he hits the ground, but nothing indicates that he wasn't falling downwards at terminal velocity. As for why he escaped the cage, it might be that he wouldn't want to land on broken steel bars or whatever will happen with the cage when it crashes. I guess if he also had managed to escape earlier he would have been able to fly away. Even though he just got up after the fall I take it that it's not pleasant.

Because you are missing my point. The Hulk lands completely unharmed. If he was injured by the fall, Banner would have been injured by the fall. He is perfectly fine when he wakes up. He took a straight fall from the heaven was perfectly fine.

Being knocked out isn't being completely fine. He didn't get any lasting visible damage though. And do we know that Banner takes the same damage as Hulk?

The Hulk is clearly more durable and physically stronger. Thor shoots lightning using Mjolnir, that is great. The Hulk destroys at least as many space whales with his bare hands. Thus what the Hulk does is far more impressive. He does the same, if not more damage then Thor, using his body as a weapon. He throws himself into ships. That is a bigger feat imo and far more impressive.

No, Hulk only kills one leviathan and that's the one in the beginning (I, and probably most people, give it to him despite that IM blows it up with missiles). Thor kills three. Two when blocking the portal and the one he and Hulk are fighting on top of later on. It's of course logical since Thor's lightning can destroy them outright, no questions asked, while Hulk needed the momentum from the leviathan to crush itself on his fist, and therefor also needed to be standing on solid ground to get enough friction and not just be pushed away.

You're free to think it's more impressive to do lesser things as long as you do it with your body. I would disagree.

But as said above, this is the last post for me. I stated my clear opinion in my previous post so both our opinions are clear. There's still false facts coming around and if they weren't acknowledged before then they probably won't start now either, so this is as far as this will be able to go.
 
Happily I don't really care if Hulk is (eventually) physically stronger. You can rip theoretical holes in both their portrayed abilities.

I prefer Thor, that's enough for me. I just hope they don't shaft him. He's not human, operates on a Hulkier level so don't screw him over because he looks human and/or isn't as popular in the film....
 
LOL. Thor fanboys are delusional.
lol There IS more to Thor than just the hammer tho, people need to see that.

Yeah, every Thor fan has thought the same thing in practically every film so far.
Unless Thor says what he did in the comics in JMS' run that, "he'd been holding back for fear of killing mortal heroes or villains" that's the only way we'll really see his full power.
 
:woot: For all his power and feats Thor will still be around saving Midgard and the Universe Thousands of years after the Hulk has faded from memory and turned to dust....
Kind of sucks not being Asgardian...
 
LOL. Thor fanboys are delusional.

Now you're entering troll territory, I wouldn't dare go into the Hulk boards and say "Huk fans are delusional".

It's not that serious bro, no need for that type of behavior.
 
I wish Tony stark invented a gadget that could read our heroes' and villains' immense power. Something that can be installed over one's ear and over one eye perhaps. Something that is great but also not so great because it explodes if the power surges too quickly.
