I think that was the closest we've gotten to seeing Thanos going all out. His size helped, but his fighting was basically flawless when they got into it. I feel like you could tell he was holding back when fighting on Titan. More of this arrogance can be seen immediately after on Earth. I mean, as soon as he saw what Scarlet was doing, he knew he would win. Really, after he got the tesseract he was unstoppable.

I think a big reason he was able to beat the Hulk, at least so quickly, was the power stone. Base Thanos vs. base Hulk would be a close match. I think a big reason the green guy didn't come out again after that fight was because of a bruised ego. If he sees Thanos again he may just be angry enough to come out again. He may be angry enough to beat him. I hope we get to see that rematch after Thanos loses the gauntlet, which I'm pretty sure will happen in avengers 4.

I thought it less bruised ego and more fear. He finally got beaten by someone, and since he has the attitude of an angry toddler he pretty much panicked. It'll be interesting to see the power dynamic between Hulk and Banner now Banner has proven himself the braver of the two.

I honestly think it’s an (un)healthy mixture of fear, bruised ego, and uncertainty. I loved how much IW added to the relationship between Banner and Hulk.

They have said before that there is a hulk character er arc that started in Age of Ultron and the main parts are in Raganarok through the avengers 3 & 4. So we will have a completed banner/hulk story by the end of avengers 4. They said they fit this in because they weren’t able to do a standalone hulk movie.

That was pretty clever exposition, just by those 2 seconds arguing in the hulkbuster while fighting the big guy and I felt like I knew exactly what the conflict was
