i am looking forward to this film. it suspossed to be “hulk lite” w/ less drama then ang’s film and more “hulk smash”. norton rewrote some of the script. however his acting in the trailer is not very impressive.

i have also read that banner or hulk will be in ironman and sam jackson, playing nick fury will be in both films.

FYI the director also says the final fight scene is 26 minutes long. not sure if that’s good or bad.

I wasn’t actually that critical of Ang Lee’s Hulk which I thought was an interesting if flawed take on a superhero movie. I wonder if this version will be action overload in an attempt to address the main criticism of the first movie.

You know like Duece Bigalow Male Gigalo…the single coolest character ever.

A character like Spider-Man may seem like less on the surface, but the fact that he is so undefined, makes writers able to do much more different stuff with the character. Even horrible, pathetic, shitty, horrible stuff.

I think Spider-Man has more potential for interesting story-telling than The Hulk does, even if he seems less interesting on paper.

Either way, the film looks exactly as shallow as they promised it would be. I have no doubt it will be horribly inferior to the first film, but it will probably be alright to see in the theatre. Edward Norton looks pretty horrible, and Liv Tyler is a shitty actress, but Tim Roth is good, as is William Hurt.

But that end sequence they gave away here… I mean how cliché’d could it possibly be? Jumping at eachother in slowmotion?

Yep, that’s Toronto. The Zanzibar, and the classic “Sam the Record Man” sign very evident in the background.

My impression of this is that it’s likely to be a decent popcorn movie. Leave your brain in neutral, and just enjoy watching “Hulk smash!”

seriously though — as a comic book fan (and a fan of the Hulk) this things looks really well done. Everything about this one has me excited — Tim Roth, Ed Norton, The Abomination — should be the perfect Hulk film.

Had no idea about the Iron Man crossover — very cool, Ian!

I liked Lee’s film because it had a few good action sequences and managed to focus more on the inner turmoil of Banner than explosions. This version looks as though it’s going in the complete opposite direction, and it sort of scares me. This looks like a straight-up good versus evil superhero movie, which I’m not sure fits the Hulk too well.

We shall see though, I suppose. With great actors like Roth and Norton in the mix, I can’t write this film off quite yet. And y’know, I’ve heard a lot of complaining about the fact that they’re rebooting the Hulk so soon after his last film, but seeing this trailer, even though it doesn’t seem perfect, has me excited to see multiple approaches to the same character. Maybe instead of making a sequel to this film they should just wait another 5 years and do yet another remake.

…yeah, probably not. It sounds like a kind of neat idea to me, though.

I do, however, think that Liv Tyler is a pretty good replacement for Connelly, though I would have liked for her to return.
