The Incredible Hulk

I really enjoyed it. Maybe I missed part of the trailer, but I thought all the Stark/General stuff from the trailer was in the movie. Could be wrong though.

I've heard that 70 minutes of the film was cut to bring it down to the current 114 minutes. That is a *lot* of film. The uncut DVD is going to rock.

That is a *lot* of film.

Hell, that's almost a feature in an off itself. I wonder where I can get me some spoilers...

For sure. That sounds interesting.

Marvel seems to be making a "movie universe" similiar to how they have the ultimate universe and the original universe. I like it a lot. I have expected Professor X to show up.

I did hate though that they used cut scenes in the commercials (between stark and the general) that did not make it into the scenes. I hate that kind of advertising as it made me think something was coming after the credits.

It was well worth seeing. Even if I had to endure going to the "ghetto" theater and listening to some idiot talk about how great the jagguarnaut and xmen 3 (which beat out having to listen to the valley girl at iron man complain on how she didn't get it and she wondered why they didn't "get together")

Wait. Stark isn't in it?

He is. Like they said on Attack of the Show, the scene with him in the trailer is over half the screen time he gets, but he is there.

Better than nothing.

Better than nothing.

Just got back from it. Enjoyed it quite a bit, but liked Iron Man better.

Special effects were good, but Hulk is a victim of the 'uncanny valley'.

 

[Ankh-Morpork Guard]

Also just got back here...and I loved it. As others have said, its not Iron Man, but that's a high bar to set.

And I've got to say that Hulk didn't look that bad at all. It was definitely much, much more believable than the Ang Lee Hulk. Tons of great nods to fans of little things all from the comics to the old show(I couldn't help grinning when they played the music...you KNOW the music I'm talking about), and good action to boot.

So Marvel 2 for 2 with me now, and that's a good sign for things to come. Here's hoping they can keep up the quality and the interconnectivity of the films.

This is not hard to do. The battles in Iron Man were very anti-climactic or short, other than possibly the initial one where he escapes.

Right, Iron Man was about Tony Stark delivering amusing quips. Much the same way Transformers actually was all about Spike Witwicky. They're comedies billed as action blockbusters.

And I fully suspect the Hulk is mainly Bruce Banner's show.
