=== From [[The Avengers (Filmfilm)|the movie]]: ===
* Nick Fury referring to Coulson as his one good eye.
** {{spoiler|Hawkeye, actually, or in addition to -- he was the one Fury trusted to keep watch over the Tesseract, after all.}}
Line 14:
** Even better is later, where Banner is seen driving off with Stark and has apparently taken the job.
* When Tony arrives to the first briefing on the helicarrier, he walks in with Coulson and ends their conversation with "...pick a weekend and I'll fly you out to Portland." Tony gives Phil a lot of grief, yet he still offers to let Coulson use his own personal jet to visit his girlfriend.
* The scene with Tony Stark talking to Bruce Banner about the arc reactor has me near (heartwarming) tears just thinking about it. Tony compares the arc reactor keeping the shrapnel out of his heart and Bruce's transformation into the Hulk, both emergency lifesaving responses to horrific accidents: the arc reactor and the Hulk are all that kept Tony and Bruce alive, in exchange for the "terrible privilege" of [[Cursed Withwith Awesome]] power. Bruce asks why he survived; Tony implies that maybe it's to use his power, like Tony, to help people.
** ''Why this makes me cry:'' For the first time, someone offers the admittedly-suicidal Bruce hope for a purpose in life that's not just "Maybe you'll find a cure someday." And this is ''Tony Stark,'' of all people, serving as a mentor, as [[The Atoner]] like Bruce. The universe's most cynical [[Deadpan Snarker]] is telling poor Bruce, whose life has been hell, that [[You Are Better Than You Think You Are]].
** ''Why this makes me cry harder:'' In the final battle, Tony surprises Steve by asking if Banner has joined them yet. But Tony never doubts that Bruce will come through. {{spoiler|Bruce does come through... and as the Hulk, he saves Tony's life.}}
