* The Hulk's rampage after breaking free from Desert Base.
* The Hulk battling the tanks. He flips one tank over, grabs it by the cannon, and hammer throws it into the distance. Then Hulk rips the top off of another and uses it as a club before advancing on the last tank with an expression that screams "beatdown time." Instead of tearing them apart, he walks ''right up to them'' and then slams it into the ground, at which point the soldiers duck into the tank in fear. Then Hulk bends the cannon back until the end of it is inches from a soldier's face, which has an OhCrap expression.

* The fight between the Hulk and three gamma-powered dogs was a brutal mix of brawling and strategy:
** The way he puts one of the dogs down is priceless: grab it by the back leg, hold it upside-down and spread-eagle, and ''Hulk Punch'' it [[GroinAttack right in the gamma-nads]]. This might be in response to being on the receiving end from another one before.
** Another dog bites the Hulk's left deltoid and latches on; when Hulk can't pry it loose with his hands, he flexes until the muscle (still in the dog's mouth) grows large enough to break its jaw.
* Bruce refusing to transform and throttles his anger while being attacked by Talbot and being shocked by a cattle prod, knowing what they intend to do, and tells Talbot that he will never allow Talbot and his MadScientist group get what they want.
