The Avengers is jam-packed with memorable quotes thanks to writer/director Joss Whedon’s trademark wit, but Tony Stark’s introduction to Bruce Banner showcases the character’s uncompromising sarcasm at its very best.

15. “Fact is, the law says you cannot touch… but I see a lot of lawbreakers up in this house.” – Dallas (Matthew McConaughey) – Magic Mike (Dir. Steven Soderbergh) (Screenwriter: Reid Carolin)
