That wasn't an Abrams tank.
Although I need to rewatch the scene to assess the damage. The tank still could have still been in one piece.
Also the leviathan was easily getting pierced by the Hulk stabs of metal.

Thor's lightning was strong enough to destroy them, the blast lasting longer just let him take out a larger number. There is zero proof that the bulding made the lightning stronger.
The proof is that Thor didn't take out any outside of that. He and Hulk was battling all day and he didn't do shit to those leviathans.

Not a lot of things on Earth can damage them (or to the degree of destroying them).Leviathans were soft on one side (their belly) and thus reduced their overall durability. Plus Hulk was easily stabbing them with weak as metal. Hulk couldn't have penetrated Abrams Tank that way.

IIRC, the metal Hulk used was part of the Leviathan's armor...IOW, metal that Iron-man couldn't damage with his missiles or laser, even if he drained his arc-reactor dry.

Hey SM which do you find more impressive, Hulk's punching the leviathan's face(posssibly destroying its brain or core/whatever) or Thor's lightning hammer slam(possibly destroying its spinal cord or whatever)
The Hulk's feat was more of a punch(which did the damage) + continuous push(which stopped it's momentum) Both are impressive strength feats given the Leviathan's durability and the momentum something that size had to have had.
I'd rate that above the charged hammer strike Thor used on the piece of metal...though I'd rate Thor's massive lightning blast and his Jotunheim buster as having more overall power.
BTW: Did you notice that they borrowed rather heavily from the movie Ultimate’s 2?
Originally posted by Silent MasterI just rewatched the scene. Iron Man didn't use the same missile he used on the tank in Iron Man as he did against the Leviathan initially. He eventually used the missile he used in Iron Man on the leviathan after Hulk punches it and causes it to flip forward exposing it's belly. The missile blows the thing up, including some of the metal.

Hulk didn't stop the thing's momentum at all. Hulk got pushed back and the thing flipped forward and continue to go forward.
IMO Thor's lightning was more impressive, although Thor was hitting them in the belly.

Thor used the building to store more charge in order to shoot a more powerful blast. He shot multiple blasts earlier so that wasn't the reason.
Oh please. Metal does not amplify lighting or electricity. Stop with it. There is no proof that Thor's lightning was amplified by that tower. The most it did was give him wider coverage. As to why he wasn't spamming lightning left and right to kill chitauri? Simple, because then the other avengers would have nothing else to do. Point is, that tower still didn't amplify his lightning, unless you can provide proof otherwise. Saying that "because Thor didn't use it to kill all the chitauri" is not proof. That's a conjecture.
Hulk used a metal plating from the back of the leviathan to puncture the leviathan. That wasn't ordinary metal.
There is not single proof that shows that the under belly of the leviathans are weaker. Show me one instance where it shows their bellies are weaker.
IM had nothing in his entire arsenal to get through the leviathan's armor. But he had plenty of firepower to destroy tanks. Hulk rips through tanks as well.

The metal of the leviathan was weak against blunt force or piercing force. Iron Man's missile blew it up (including some of the metal) after Hulk turned it over.

Why can't you read? The building STORED MORE ELECTRICITY THAN THE HAMMER EVER COULD. More current = stronger blast. This lead to more power output. Common sense really. As Rage would say, "Movies are simple."The metal of the leviathan was weak against blunt force or piercing force. Iron Man's missile blew it up (including some of the metal) after Hulk turned it over.
I'm asking you to provide proof on where you came up with THE BUILDING STORED MORE ELECTRICITY THAN THE HAMMER COULD? Unless you can provide any decent proof of this then it's all in your head. And by the way, the hammer doesn't store electricity. It's not some battery that discharges lightning. The hammer allows Thor to call down lightning. He used the tower like a lightning rod. What does a lightning rod do? I redirects lightning. It doesn't amplify lightning, it doesn't store lightning. Fact.
As for the leviathan, IM's missile didn't penetrate the armor. Hulk punched the leviathan so hard that chunks of it's armor fell off, IM then shot his missile into a gap in the armor. IM blew out the leviathan's flesh, not it's armor.

Well the lightning looked more thicker to me (much wider).
Let's say it lasted longer. That means it is able to do more damage.
Last longer = more damage done.
In the sense that a hose left on for 2.5 minutes releases more water than one on for 2 minutes, however the water pressure(power) is the same.
