MCU: 10 Greatest Thor Moments

10. Grabbing Loki - The Avengers

During 2012's The Avengers, Captain America (Chris Evans), Iron Man (Robert Downey Jr) and the rest of the new Avengers team manage to apprehend Loki (Tom Hiddleston) - not yet knowing it's all part of his master plan to split up his foes - and prepare to transport him to SHIELD.

But along the way, a storm breaks out and Thor arrives, taking Loki from their custody and disappearing into the night.

Away from the others, Thor berates his brother for his actions on Asgard, and is then forced to take on Cap and Iron Man when they return to get their prisoner back.

Verbally jousting with Tony Stark and putting his hammer against Cap's shield makes for one of the film's most under-appreciated scenes, culminating in the God of Thunder joining the Avengers on their journey.

The whole sequence acts as Thor's introduction to the team, and proves that he's able to go toe-to-toe with Earth's Mightiest Heroes when he has to.
