LOL Shaw still needs to breathe. With no Oxygen at the center of a hurricane Shaw would simply go unconscious. Floating in a spot of Thor's choosing. Or he levitates Shaw in the Hurricane and lays the Hammer on his body and lets go. Shaw ain't going nowhere. Thor squeezes his head in.
Cmon guys this ain't comicbook Shaw. He has no speed feats.

Shaw. Easily.
It's a remote possibilty but EASY, get over it.
The second Thor became himself he fought the Destroyer far more intelligently than his comic counterpart. Shaw can't beat what he can't touch. And the kinetic spreading explosion scene required physical mass to spread the fire. Thor is in the sky. Plus fire won't do crap.
Originally posted by cdtmActually the coin only went through his head because Professor X shut Shaw's mind down, preventing him from adsorbing the coin's kinetic energy. After all, Shaw had no problem absorbing bullets with ease.
Once Thor figures out what Sebastian can do, he simply forces him to the ground, places the hammer on him, then slowly presses his finger through his head.Going by how Mags dealt with him, that should bypass his powers.
Originally posted by the ninjakMovie Thor never showed the ability to suck oxygen out of someone's lungs. A hurricane doesn't do that for air is still around to breath. Also dragging air away wouldn't deplete the area of oxygen either as more oxygen will come from the next surrounding area since there is oxygen around the whole planet.

I'm stating that that's not a big feat due to the circumstances surrounding it, such as the fact that the city was already clearly falling apart. I actually rate the CIA building feat higher in terms of destructive power.
The dude unleashed a lightning bolt that caused a huge destructive blast that was ripping apart ice and rock.
as for it being hollow who cares. It was still enough to support an entire race of giants and their city and the giant monster was running on it.
If it was so brittle then the city would have caused it to crack and fall apart ages ago.
Thor's feat >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>. CIA building feat no question about it.
Besides Shaw's biggest feat imo would have been him absorbing the entire nuclear reactor from the submarine.
As for who can win the fight. I can see arguments that can be made on both sides and the nature of Shaw's powers make it hard to decide.

Lol this is easily Shaw. Unlike most other movies where powerful characters are downgraded from comic versions like Magneto, Surfer and Thor, Shaw recieved a significant upgrade with his ability to absorb all types of energy.
No he did'nt comic version gained superspeed.

So if Xavier shut Rogues mind down you could make out with her huh?
No
Yo.
Xavier didnt prevent Shaw from absorbing the energy of the coin moving thru his mind; he simply prevented him from moving to avoid it.
as for this fight, its Shaws fight to lose; placing Mjolnir on Shaw to pin him means Thor would have to come within arms reach, and thats EXTREMELY hazardous his health (as well as not a given since wats to him from moving away by sliding UNDER the hammer?)
Tazer
I think the only way for Thor to win would be to either overload Shaw or use Mjolnir to drain all the kinetic energy out of him. It's an open question as to whether either of those two options are possible. Up till that point though it's highly likely Thor just runs up and smashes him in the face a few times and Shaw gives it all back to him at once.
As for the coin head thing I think it's almost certainly the case that he couldn't use his powers to protect himself due to Xavier. Strangling, hurricanes etc should be absorbed like anything else theoretically at least.

So Shaw can beat Thor without ever landing any attacks?
Through close contact he can release what looked like concentrated kinetic energy.
He destroyed a bunch of surrounding people by setting of an attack that spread kinetic explosions around him by stamping his foot.
The charge spread throughout the ground similar in idea to Gambit's ability but much more advanced and aggressive.
Shaw can't touch Thor if he's in the air though. Or keeps fair distance.
