Thor Ragnarok Trailer Breakdown: 23 Things You Must See

2. Hulk Is Not Impressed

Hulk's reaction to seeing Thor is not as joyful, but it's also not initially full of hate. It feels like his anger is a response to something the Grandmaster has said - perhaps an offer of freedom if he defeats Thor? Or some sort of provocation? Notice he has no red eyes as he did when he was controlled by Scarlet Witch's visions, so he's apparently acting of his own free will.

Maybe it's just a case of Bruce not being in control when he's turned into Hulk? Or the Jade Giant remembering their fights during the Avengers?

Either way, his expression changes pretty quickly.

The reaction from Thor is great. He knows he's in big trouble now...

Though they fight, it seems very much at odds with the image we got of Bruce and Thor embracing as part of the EW feature...

This must come after Thor and Hulk fight, but before they escape. Presumably Banner comes with him?
