The Best Lines In Marvel's The Avengers

Chris Evans as Captain America and Robert Downey Jr. as Tony Stark/Iron Man
The blockbuster superhero flick Marvel's The Avengers is already becoming best known for its effects, battles, and fierce uniforms and accessories--and it doesn't even open here till tomorrow.

But what about the dialogue?

Yeah, it's not exactly Billy Wilder, but still there are some good verbal exchanges in there along with the 3-D wizardry.

Just so this is not forgotten, I thought I'd put on my superhero critic's costume and tell you some of the better lines:

(Spoiler alert! Spoiler alert!)


Thor: "You don't know who you're dealing with."

Stark/Iron Man: "Shakespeare in the Park? Doth mother know you weareth her drapes?"


Stark/Iron Man: "Apparently I'm volatile, self-obsessed, and don't play well with others."


Stark/Iron Man: "Phil? His first name is Agent!"


Stark/Iron Man to Captain America: "You're a laboratory experiment. Everything special about you came from a bottle."


Stark/Iron Man to Bruce Banner/the Hulk: "What's your secret? Mellow jazz, bongo drums, and a huge bong of weed?"


And what the hell, let me include one that Downey Jr. doesn't say:

Bruce Banner/the Hulk: "We're not a team. We're a time bomb!"

"Sir, please put down the spear."

Hulk's only line was PUNY GOD after the fight with Loki. Wish he said something back to Captain America's Hulk Smash. Don't get me wrong, the expression is priceless but I would entertain any of the following            Gladly / With Pleasure / Music to my ears / Friend and Foe / Certainly

Read somewhere where Downey was allowed to improvise and that some of his verbal riffs were left in.

For a mindless action movie, some of those lines aren't that bad.

Downey can make anything sound witty, even some of these lines.
