It was also my take on it that Banner knows that he's lost his control of "the other guy" on the Helicarrier (which is why he sends that scared look to Black Widow just before he transforms) thanks to Loki's power.
In fact, it struck me that ALL the tension on the Helicarrier had to do with Loki's influence from his magic glo-stick...he seemed to have the ability to manipulate their emotions, meaning that when the Hulk broke loose Banner couldn't control the rage. Reminded me of the scene in "Fellowship of the Ring" when everyone is arguing and the Ring is just sitting there drinking in the chaos.
Later in the movie, however, without Loki's direct influence, Banner is back in control of his emotions.

I think he'll be the perfect toddler, saying whatever is on his mind.
But what about the face paint and the elephant juggling?

I still remember you fussing at me for overthinking early FF.

Sorry, "excoriating".

If you have a dream about out-posting me, you better wake up and apologize.

Although they haven't made it explicit, I'd be surprised if the hooded figure was not her. Can't wait to get the DVD and slo mo.
If you wrapped some of your earlier posts in spoiler tags (and if you did I appreciate it ), that may explain why myself and others didn't see all you wrote. I avoided any spoilers in posts until I saw the movie. I didn't go back and read what I missed.
Warning, Spoiler:
So Thanos was kneeling in the first scene? I'm pretty sure he was sitting on a throne in one of the scenes. The hooded figure looked like it could have been a statue.
I had it in spoiliers, so that's possibly why people missed it. I'm still not certain about it; pure speculation on my part, but it makes a lot of sense. That's why I'd love to see it again with the ability to slo mo the epilogue. The size of the hood clinches it for me though; and I saw it as a being rather than a statue, but that's just me. The other thing was that having the similar 2nd in command guy throughout confuses things a bit.

Having seen it twice, and looking for it the second time around, and speaking only for myself, I couldn't make out who/what he was talking to at the beginning but I assume it is one and the same.
