The Incredible Hulk
Probably a thread about this already; couldn't find it in the movie forum though, so here it is.
This looks 598.7% better than Ang Lee's version. As a Hulk fan, I am exuberant they made a reboot and not a sequel, and I am especially glad they're making it more like the comic story this time around.
The grittyness/roughness look of this Hulk is definitely a move in the right direction, Ang Lee's always looked to shiny and boyish looking for me.

Rubber doll even.
INteresting... Just wondering how Norton's gonna do it. I liked Bana actually.
I noticed the green eyes were back.
Ang Lee got one half of Hulk's story right with pinpoint accuracy, but he focused far too much on the psychological side of his story, and forgot the fact that he's also The Hulk.
Admittedly I hope it's not two hours of Hulk just smashing stuff up, cos that would be the polar opposite of Ang Lee's version. Hopefully it'll be good, though.

I thought the scene where The Hulk is walking toward Betty, and morphs back to Banner, couldn't have been any more seamless.-AC
I didn't mean effectswise. I meant in the sense of the very serious psychological story of Banner and Betty and stuff, and the comic book feel of the mindless Hulk destroying stuff... The two elements kinda clashed storywise a bit IMHO.

As good as Edward Norton can be, Eric Bana just hits the mark as Bruce Banner. I'd also take Ang Lee as a director over the director of the Transporter anyday, even if Lee's previous entry had its faults.I also agree about the CGI. It looks piss.
I disagree with that, Bana is more of the "hunky" actor, while not bad as Banner, Norton, fits much better, imo.
It looks better then Lee's, I think
I hope this thread stays here in the Movie Discussion forum. I'd rather discuss this with normal movie fans, not comic book fanatics who are going to dissect everything from which side Bruce Banner parts his hair to how the skin tone of Hulk is actually a bit darker in the comic.
I think Edward Norton will blow away Eric Bana as Bruce Banner. Eric Bana looked to much like a jock frat boy and not enough like a nerdy scientist. I want to see a skinny little nerd turn into the Hulk, which is better for the whole Jekyll and Hyde vibe anyway.
Banner isn't actually a skinny little nerd.
He can fight like a shitting bastard, but I see your point, and agree with it really.
What do people think about Tony Stark allegedly appearing in this movie? Robert Downey Jr's version, I mean. Allegedly he's only got a cameo, but it's supposed to be the start of crossovers.
If they have to, let's just hope they stay the **** away from The Fantastic Four.

Actually it seems like it's a somewhat of a continuation, rather than a reboot...
according to an interview with the director, Banner transforms into the Hulk 3 min into the movie...
the reboot side of the movie, it seems, it's the direction (as well as the character's design)
I actually hated the Ang Lee version, I found unbearable, the FX sucked big time (He did looked like a pretty boy) , though the FX in this one aren't better either, it just looks more gritty.
I actually some the first movie until the puddles attacks (his father's dogs). I just couldn't watch it anymore, pop out the disk and I actually throw it away...seriously. 😄
sometime afterwards I saw when that other guy try to inject the hulk with huge syringe and I just laugh my ass off....

Norton did the rewrite and he severed all ties with Lee's version. Marvel wanted a clean slate.
