Ever since Iron Man and The Incredible Hulk kicked off the Marvel Cinematic Universe back in the summer of 2008, the very idea of seeing the two duke it out on the big screen with Tony Stark inside his Hulkbuster armor was a tantalizing prospect. Fortunately for fans of the MCU, Avengers: Age of Ultron saw the Science Bros finally go toe-to-toe in spectacular fashion.

Under the influence of the Scarlet Witch's manipulation, the Hulk goes on a citywide rampage, and only Tony possesses the tools to even try and stop him. Named as a subtle Archie Comics reference, Veronica resides in a satellite orbiting the planet that comes to Iron Man's aid as 'the other guy' threatens to reduce an entire city to rubble.

One of the highlights of the movie, the face-off between Iron Man and the Hulk is a knockdown, drag-em-out fight that pancakes vehicles, city streets and even an entire building. Factor in several signature Tony Stark quips, flawless CGI and some jaw-dropping scenes of destruction, and the end result is the biggest fistfight the MCU has ever seen, not to mention one of the best set-pieces across all eleven movies.

I don't do social media, so like or follow me in person but please maintain a safe distance or the authorities will be notified. Don't snap me though, I'll probably break. I was once labelled a misogynist on this very site in a twenty paragraph-long rant for daring to speak ill of the Twilight franchise. I stand by what I said, it's crap.
