"All right, that's too hot. Anything we can do about that heat?"
"Rick...it's a flamethrower."
Hopefully the Avengers are already assembled so that we don't have to waste an hour seeing how it all happens. But, I bet that's what we'll get.
Then the last half hour being some big battle against, Apocalypse? Dr. Strange (who they also want to make a movie about)?
The more I think about this, the worse it's starting to sound.

The same thing would happen with a Justice League movie.Quoting number8 (view post)
There's just no way you could really combine high-caliber superheros into a movie because they'll each have to have a star-making scene, equal screentime, and so on.
Maybe they'll surprise us somehow, but I'd definitely take an Iron Man 3 as the third option for Downey instead of Avengers if we had to take one or the other.
I like the idea of Hulk being the big "problem" they have to overcome.
"All right, that's too hot. Anything we can do about that heat?"
"Rick...it's a flamethrower."
It makes sense, but it's such a tired idea. Nevermind the comics, do they really want to have the same plot as a direct-to-video animated movie that was just released two years ago? Plus both Hulk movies already painted him as a menace.Quoting megladon8 (view post)
Whatever. I guess, according to my thesis, Hulk vs Iron Man would at least be more fun to watch than Hulk vs Abomination.

But then where does Thor and Captain America fit in?Quoting number8 (view post)
My guess is Hulk joins them in the end to beat down whoever it is.
Ugh.
At least now Howard can fully focus on his music career.Quoting Watashi (view post)

Anyway, not sure if anyone else heard an interview he did recently (I think it was NPR) where he basically said he heard he was being replaced the same way the rest of us did. You have to wonder exactly what happened.

I felt the new hulk was completely mediocre.
If by mediocre, you mean sucky, then you are correct.
I like Tim Blake Nelson, but The Leader is uber lame. Meh. I'd like it better if they had not cut out all the Doc Samson scenes and then expand him for the sequel. What a dumb move there, eliminating the more interesting parts of the movie in favor of dumb CGI wrestling. No wonder Norton threw a hissy fit.
Movie Theater DiaryQuoting Donald Glover
Maybe they can bring Omar in the mix since he was just an extra in the last one. Heh
Omar with the radiation.
Yeh, I'd never watch it again so that pretty much qualifies as sucking.
The ending fight was very weak and like you said, a CGI mess.
I liked the new movie.
"All right, that's too hot. Anything we can do about that heat?"
"Rick...it's a flamethrower."
Truth.Quoting megladon8 (view post)
And yes, I just called truth on you liking the movie.
I meant to go with "I liked the new movie, too."

:lol:
It was a heck of a lot of fun. I still have a nerd-gasm every time I see Hulk break that police car in half for boxing gloves.

"Rick...it's a flamethrower."
Both movies are extremely watchable, but blah. I just don't like the character of Hulk that much. Give me something rooted in reality such as The Dark Knight. At least the drama becomes palpable, the action genuinely thrilling.

Shiny.
This is pretty much the opposite of my thoughts (Though I do like Dark Knight). Reality sucks.Quoting Morris Schæffer (view post)

I really don't see how reality makes action more thrilling.
It's the filming of the action, and the connection you have with the characters involved.

I liked the last 10-20 mn of The Incredible Hulk, and that was it.
“What we are dealing with here is a perfect engine, er... an eating machine. It's really a miracle of evolution. All this machine does is swim and eat and make little sharks and that's all.”
Exactly my feelings.Quoting Scar (view post)
Funny, I liked the first 10-20 mins, and that was it.
Movie Theater DiaryQuoting Donald Glover
Maybe it's a personal thing Meg so don't get all defensive on my ass. Nevertheless, is it entirely wrong for me to say that a character such as Iron Man or Batman is far more vulnerable than The Hulk? Sometimes I think there's a reason why The Dark Knight is referred to as a crime movie, allowing it to escape its (inherently?) pulpy origins. I think the character of Wayne/Batman lends itself to that. The likes of Hellboy and Hulk seem more colorful and overblown by comparison. I'm sure this rule isn't etched in stone - Jackson turned a giant gorilla into a jaw-droppingly expressive and vulnerable creation - but the Hulk movies haven't really achieved the same. It strikes me as a far bigger challenge to turn something like Hulk into a resonating and powerful motion picture. I feel that is easier to accomplish within the Batman universe.Quoting megladon8 (view post)
