Hulkbuster Vs. Hulk Fight Scene Description in AVENGERS: AGE OF ULTRON
One of the most anticipated scenes in Avengers: Age of Ultron is a fight sequence between Hulk and Hulkbuster. We've already seen a good amount of footage of this scene in the trailers that have been released, but now we have a full description of how it all plays out.
The clip was shown during the Walt Disney Company's annual shareholder meeting that gave us the big Star Wars updates and the Frozen 2 announcement. The scene description comes from Stitch Kingdom, and it tells us how and why Tony Stark jumps in the Hulkbuster armor to battle Hulk. The description includes dialogue from the scene as well as some minor SPOILERS. So here we go:
The scene opens with an armored police vehicle arriving on the scene. An incredibly angry and destructive Hulk is witnessed tearing up the streets, destroying cars and spreading all-out panic. Police, heavily armed with machine guns, openly fire on the Hulk to no avail. In the distance comes Iron Man, flying at super speed to the scene. ‘Hold your fire,’ he commands to the responding teams below. He is flanked by large metal objects that speed along through the air with him, keeping up every step of the way. We cut back to the menacing Hulk and all of a sudden, a large steel (?) surfboard-shaped object slams itself down in the pavement in front of him. Then another. And another. Before you know it, Hulk is trapped inside a giant, solid metallic ‘box.’ At least, that is, until Hulk smashes free and then continues his rampage. And then, it assembles — piece by piece — the Hulkbuster, almost in Mark 42 fashion. ‘The witch is messing with your brain,’ Stark tells Hulk. ‘You’re smarter than her, you’re Bruce Banner.’ This yields an even angrier response from Hulk and it’s on. Hulkbuster vs. Hulk. The Hulkbuster usually seems to have the upper-hand, as they drag each other through the streets, tearing up the pavement. At least until Hulk ends up on the Hulkbuster’s back, impaling the shoulder with a traffic light pole. ‘Dick move, Banner’ responds Stark as they continue to fight. Then the damaged pieces of the Hulkbuster fall off and are quickly replaced with new parts. Different parts. And now Hulkbuster is atop Hulk, Stark treating Hulk’s head as a punching bag, literally pounding Hulk’s head into the pavement over and over and over (much to the amusement of the audience).‘Sleep, go to sleep’ chants Stark, but spoiler alert: it doesn’t work. Then, one of the replaced parts of the Hulkbuster, the arm missing a hand, wraps itself around Hulk’s arm and sucks him in and Iron Man takes flight, toting Hulk by the arm.
I know reading a description of an action-packed scene like this doesn't do it any justice, but it still raises my excitement level for the movie. I just can't wait to see it all play out on the big screen! The movie opens on May 1st.
