a couple of master assassins, and you, big fella, you've managed to piss off every single one of them.

I have an army.

We have a Hulk.

Because if we can't protect the Earth, you can be damn well sure we'll avenge it.

You're not going alone.

You gonna stop me?

Put on the suit, let's find out.

Nope.
158
Do you need to be on?
159
Probably.
160
I'm cold.

Careful there.
165
It's a limited edition.
166
Here's how it works, Mouth Street.

Everything will never be okay.

You can take away my house, all my tricks and toys.
171
One thing you can't take away, I am Iron Man.
172
Shit!
173
Language!
174
No one else is going to deal with the fact that Cap just said language.
175
Gosh sake, watch your language.
176
That's not going away anytime soon.
177
Please be a secret, please be a secret.

It's a good talk.

No, it wasn't.
186
That little witch is messing with your mind.
187
This is an agent of some kind.
188
Hi sweetheart!
189
Hey buddy!
190
These are...
191
Look at your face!
192
...smaller agents.
193
Don't take from my pile.
194
In the back?
195
Dick move, Banner.
196
Do me a favor.
197
Try not to bring it to life.
198
Romanoff, you and Banner better not be playing hide the zucchini.
199
Spartanian little minx.
200
I get it, Maria Hill called you, right?
201
Was she ever not working for you?
202
Artif- You want me to help you put Jarvis into this thing?
203
No!
204
Of course not.
205
I wanna help you put Jarvis in this thing.
206
I'm gonna say this once.
207
How about nuns?
208
Go to sleep, go to sleep, go to sleep.
209
That man has no regard for long maintenance.
210
Like the old man said, together.
211
You're the spiderling.
212
Crime fighting spider.
213
You're spider boy.
214
Alright, I've run out of patience.
215
Underoos!
216
Lordy, can you even see in these?
217
Yes, yes, I can't, I can't.
218
Multiple contusions detected.
219
Yeah, I detected that too.
220
I can't go to Germany.
221
Why?
222
I can't.
223
I'm like...
224
I'm gonna pretend he didn't say that.
225
Give me back my roadie.
226
Fem always said you never can trust a Stark. Who are you?
227
You can call me anytime.
228
I'll put you on hold.
229
I'd like to watch the line blink.
230
Anybody on our side hiding any shocking and fantastic abilities they'd like to disclose, I'm open to suggestions.
231
Manchurian candidate, you're killing me.
232
There's a truce here.
233
The Soviets built this chamber to withstand the launch blast of UR-100 rockets.
234
I'm betting I could beat that.
235
Don't do anything I would do.
236
And definitely don't do anything I wouldn't do.
237
There's a little gray area in there and that's where you operate.
238
Previously on Peter Screws the Pooch, forget the flying vulture guy, please.
239
Why?
240
Why?
241
Because I said so!
242
Sorry, I'm talking about a teenager.
243
My dad never really gave me a lot of support and I'm just trying to break the cycle of shame.
244
This is where you zip it, alright?
245
The adult is talking.
246
That's not a hug, I'm just grabbing the door for you.
247
We're not, we're not there yet.
248
You could destroy life on a scale hitherto undreamt of.
249
Did you seriously just say hitherto undreamt of?
250
I'm sorry, you giving out tickets or something?
251
We swore an oath to protect the time stone with our lives.
252
And I swore off dairy, but then Ben and Jerry's named a flavor after me, so...
253
Stark raving hazelnuts.
254
Not bad.
255
I'm a bit chalky.
256
A hunk of hulk of burning fudge is our favorite.
257
That's a thing.
258
I'm sorry, Earth is closed today.
259
What is this guy's problem, Stark?
260
Uh, he's from space.
261
He came here to steal a necklace from a wizard.
262
Where's your gun?
263
I don't know.
264
I'm sorry about having a thing.
265
There's no time for a thing.
266
That's a thing right there.
267
Let's go.
268
If anything, it's kind of your fault that I'm here.
269
What did you just say?
270
It means get lost Squidward!
271
Who just saved your magical ass?
272
Me!
273
Where is Gamora?
274
Yeah, I'll do you one better.
275
Who's Gamora?
276
Wong, you're invited to my wedding!
277
Dude, you're embarrassing me in front of the wizards.
278
I swear to you I'm gonna french fry this little freak.
279
Let's do it!
280
You shoot my guy and I'll blast him!
281
Let's go!
282
Yeah, but the kid's seen more movies.
283
We're now in a flying donut, billions of miles from Earth with no backup.
284
I'm back up?
285
No, you're a stowaway.
286
The adults are talking.
287
You're an Avenger now.
288
You're from Earth.
289
Not from Earth, I'm from Missouri.
290
Yeah, that's on Earth, dipshit.
291
Stop listening after you said we need a plan.
292
Okay, Mr. Clean's on his own page.
293
I do not want another single pop culture reference out of you for the rest of the trip, you understand?
294
You throw another moon at me, then I'm gonna lose it.
295
Alright, we're getting no help from Flash Gordon.
296
Your math is blowing my mind.
297
Excuse me.
298
Honestly, in this exact second, I thought you were Build-A-Bear.
299
Maybe I am.
300
If you find this recording, don't post it on social media.
301
It's gonna be a real tearjerker.
302
He wet my face with a planet while the bleaker street magician gave away the store.
303
Model rendered.
304
Shit!
305
Let me guess, he turned into a baby.
306
We're the Avengers, not the pre-avengers.
307
Go to bed or I'll sell all your toys.
308
Not that it's a competition, but she loves me 3,000.
309
Honestly, I have to get out of the garage before Morgan takes it sledding.
310
That time's some guy.
311
Oh, Dr. Strange.
312
Yeah, what kind of doctor was he?
313
Your nose throat meets rabbit from hat.
314
Ugh, Mr. Rogers, I almost forgot that suit did nothing for your ass.
315
Thumbelina, do you copy?
316
I've got eyes on the prize.
317
It is go time.
318
That's my man.
319
Lose this again?
320
I'm keeping it.
321
If you do this, and it doesn't work, you're not coming back.
322
Thanks for the pep talk, pissant.
323
I...
324
...am...
325
Iron Man.
326
I love you 3000

What is the Shadowing Technique?
Shadowing is a science-backed language learning technique originally developed for professional interpreter training and popularized by polyglot Dr. Alexander Arguelles. The method is simple but powerful: you listen to native English audio and immediately repeat it out loud — like a shadow following the speaker with just a 1–2 second delay. Unlike passive listening or grammar drills, shadowing forces your brain and mouth muscles to simultaneously process and reproduce real speech patterns. Research shows it significantly improves pronunciation accuracy, intonation, rhythm, connected speech, listening comprehension, and speaking fluency — making it one of the most effective methods for IELTS Speaking preparation and real-world English communication.
