Advocating its revision is advocating the loss of one of the most iconic stand-out moments of the entire movie. That's likely to elicit a response.And I don't think it is out-of-character. This is a Loki who's gone from merely craving power to actually believing his own press - a character who really does consider himself a god, and humans his natural subjects. To acknowledge the physical threat the Hulk represents is to admit his own mortality, so when he's faced with that reality, he's totally in denial right up until the truth hits him in the face - or, at least, twirls him round its head and slams him into the floor several times.</blockquote>
