It sounds crazy but it appears to be so.

I don't think he'll be able to top Eric Bana but I'm intrigued to see how he'll do.

ragesRemorse
well atleast he can act. I agree with you though about not being able to top bana. I think eddy norton would have made a perfect daredevil

NoFate007
I've always thought Norton would've been perfect for Riddler. But oh well. He's been great in everything, so I'm confident that he'll be the best part of TIH.

I don't think it's crazy. Eric Bana could have returned and that would have been fine, but Marvel wants to 'start over' somewhat; Norton will be an excellent Bruce Banner.

WrathfulDwarf
So this is officially "The Incredible Hulk Begins"?

Validus
Topping Bana? He did a pretty good job with what he was given but I wouldn't doubt Norton could top him.

Ed Norton is a terrific actor. He should accountability and substance to a great role as Bruce Banner. Now if they can just have a great story.

Supposedly, it'll feature the abomination as the main villain.

It's been confirmed Abomination will be the adversary.

Well then, there you go.

And just how are they going to pull off not one, but TWO major CGI/Puppet creatures with a much smaller budget than the first film?

But what of the Leader? sad

Next film. He can wait in the lineup of other Hulk foes, next to the villans lineup for the Spider-Man films.

H. S. 6
This'll definitely be a reboot, then?

I love Edward Norton. I have most of the the movies that he has acted in...He's a great actor, and would do the Hulk right.

The Pict
That's a shame, I liked the cast of the first Hulk movie. They just needed a better story.

What about Joker?

Bana Banner was a very good and will be hard to beat. Norton banner will be great!! Ang lee's version of the Hulk was still good but I think this new verson will be better though.

by trying very hard.

Norton is an incredible actor so I'm not disappointed with the casting at all. To be honest, though, I'm kind of nervous about the movie ruining Norton's Career: I'd rather have another great Norton movie to look forward to in the future, than a stupid Hulk movie.

Personally, I thought Bana wasn't geeky/skinny enough for the role in the first place. He did a decent job and I like the actor, but I bet Norton will be able to do much more in playing a great Bruce Banner.

As for the Hulk, I've heard that it'll be a lot different and THAT is what I'm skeptical about. I read that he'll be a different color, size and so on.

I don't know about you guys, but the CGI Hulk from the Ang Lee version was one thing I was actually satisfied with.

The reports you are reading stating that the next Hulk movie is going to be different is refering to seperating itself from ang lee's piece of shit. This is what has been said anyway. I dont know where you read that the Hulk will be a different color but i would not believe that for one second, no reports that i have read from Marvel have stated this. The only other color possible would br grey.

Personally, the more different the next movie is compared to ang lee's the better. Were you really all that satisfied with the cgi Hulk? I remember the Cgi was hyped up as being ahead of its time, but i diddnt see anything all that impressive at all, infact watching the movie today, i can already see how much the mediocre effects have aged.

If Ben affleck still has a career, an actor that has had only one noteworthy acting performance from a film he wasnt even headlining, im sure Norton can afford more than one failure before people discount his ability

I read it from a link posted in the other Hulk thread. BUT, then I read a newer article from the same site stating that Hulk will still be green.

Link: http://www.firstshowing.net/2007/04/23/avi-arad-confirms-hulk-wont-be-grey-rather-different-shade-of-green/

Anyway, as for the CGI, I haven't seen the movie in a year or two, but I remember being completely satisfied with the CGI Hulk. Maybe I'll watch it again and see what I think.

Anyway, I think this'll be a better installment... still worried though.

That's why they're shooting this one in Canada, like the X-Men & Fantastic Four films. Getting more for their production money with a lower Canadian dollar.

Everyone assumes he'll be Bruce, but I have my doubts...

blink Now that would be crazy. A movie about Savage Banner? Errrr...

If they did go more live-action, just get Nathan Jones and put him in green or grey paint; whatever Hulk they want to depict this time. Otherwise, it better be good CGI.

I disagree, Jessica Biel is one fine actress.

The new Betty Ross Banner is ...Liv Tyler! eek!

So, we go from one major hottie in Jennifer Connelly, to a somewhat younger hottie in Liv (Arwen) Tyler. I like it.

Ultimate Hulk43
All I know is that they better do their characters justice in this movie.
