Hulk is clearly one of Marvels biggest stars but he's been reduced to a complimentary piece as of late. Meanwhile they're pushing iron man, captain america and thor like crazy. Thor understandably so but we've had a bit too much of everyone else.
Hulk was big in the 80's and 90's he had his live action and cartoon TV show. and after a while the hype of a character dies down i understand that. BUT there has only been 2 theatrical films since then.
There was Ang Lee's Hulk in 2003 that was just horrible, then there was the incredible Hulk in 2008 which was really good and well received and then they decided not to make another one. What the hell is that?! There's been like nothing since 2008 aside from the one shot "Hulk Vs" and "planet hulk" Movies.
They have Hulk and the Agents of S.M.A.S.H on the DisneyXD marvel block which i really enjoy and i'm glad it's there & hope it runs for a long time. But Marvel has all it's stuff lined up and there's nothing for Hulk clear through 2019. Look at the list. The inhumans, Capt America, Avengers, ect. He's only being used as a complimentary piece. Anyone else feel like he's getting screwed here? or at least Hulks fans are.

He's a boring character and difficult to write.
Being, a Hulk fan, I agree that us fans are getting screwed.

It's not entirely Marvel's fault. We recently learned that Universal still holds the rights to making Hulk movies, which is why Marvel hasn't made an "Incredible Hulk 2". Which does suck; Incredible Hulk 1 was a great underrated movie.
And as we've seen, Marvel plays it cutthroat when it comes to their finances. They're more concerned with reacquiring Spiderman and X-Men before reacquiring the likes of Hulk or Namor (also owned by Universal).

You are bananas.
He's an awesome character and easy to write.
Changed it for you.
It's not like they're not making any movies just for funzies. Both Hulk and Incredible Hulk were under performers at the box office, so it makes sense. They don't wanna lose money.

Boring really? You make a live action film based on Sakaar and it'd be one of the best marvel films there is

I wonder what happened with Betty Ross? She was Bruce Banner's love interest, and she hasn't appear in any of the marvel movies, I doubt she even shows up in Age of Ultron.

she's probably dead at this point in the continuity. We have a better chance of seeing her as Red she-hulk at this point.

I really REALLY wish we could have had an Incredible Hulk 2. Leader, Betty Ross, General Ross... Incredible Hulk had some GREAT actors.
