Not much, but Norton seems to fit the role better than I thought he would.

HOLY SH*T!

What a nod to Kenneth Johnson!

The Shelf 12-28-2007 11:31 AM

I'm not much of a Hulk guy.... Who is Kenneth Johnson, and why is this so awesome?

Yeesh

Johnson (the creator of V) developed the Bill Bixby Incredible Hulk teleivision series, Banner's origin here mimics EXACTLY the same origin in the pilot episode

I like Norton alot so I might see this just because he's in it.

Ah, gotcha. I wasn't sure who Johnson was.

I'm curious to see how this movie turns out. I thought the last one was pretty decent, not great, but decent. Hopefully this one will be at least as good.

KROW 12-28-2007 02:53 PM

I hope that machine is more like a gamma scanner of some kind and not a mimicry of Hulk's origin like in the TV show. I never liked Hulk's origin in the series, preferring the bomb-test-in-the-desert one. I do like Norton as Banner, though.

AquaParade 12-28-2007 03:11 PM

Who can tell me who is writing and who is directing this movie? I love Edward Norton's acting, and am a firm believer that a movie with him starring as Bruce Banner has huge potential.

J Legault 12-28-2007 03:17 PM

The first one had a major script problem in my opinion. Making the film fall under the definition for "decent".

I'm not hopping for the sequal to be even better. Since I'm not part of the Hulk Fan Base. But we'll see if it's an improvement or another box office failure.

I remenber a lot of people complained that the CGI Hulk wasn't too detailed.

It was intially Zakk Penn, but Edward Norton himself complete rewrote it.

Although that's fine for comics, it's stupendously stupid for movies.

Mr._Mutant_Man 12-29-2007 01:49 PM

I think Hulk (2003) would have been better off with the simple bomb test origin than the convoluted one they came up with.

Is it just me, or does Edward Norton seem to be kind of a control freak?

Peanut 12-29-2007 01:52 PM

I'm probably one of few people who liked HULK, so I'm really looking forward to this. I've always been a huge Hulk fan, so I'll probably like it either way.

I enjoyed it, too. I think the movie is just misunderstood by most.

Brodie 12-29-2007 02:12 PM

I enjoyed Hulk as well, but I'm a huge Norton fan.....SO I'm pumped, especially with my new found respect for Hulk that I got with Planet Hulk.

ZariusTwo 12-29-2007 02:26 PM

Ang Lee's Hulk is more for comic fans who like Peter David's psychological route, it's NOT a good idea for a first film whatsoever, but it's perfect for a sequel.

Spike Spiegel 12-29-2007 05:33 PM

I grew up watching reruns of the old TV show...especially the pilot episode...I about fainted when I saw those images.

WOW....I really want to see this movie.

Mecha Cow 12-29-2007 05:37 PM

This thread inspired me to watch Ang Lee's film again. I still think it's awesome (and has some really nice effects), but I suppose I could understand why some people would be turned off by it.

The movie doesn't really need a sequel though, so I'm OK with this new one being a semi-reboot. It will be interesting to see another, different film interpretation, and I think Hulk fans should consider themselves lucky.

Brodie 12-29-2007 06:08 PM

I was reading an interview with the director of the next one...He said the first one was more poetic, and Hulk seemed to have no weight.

He also said his version is dirty, and gritty. AKA, normal Hulk.

I think the problem is that most people expected an all out action movie. However the action scenes and the Hulk CGI were pretty impressive IMO. Still, I think the movie ran a little too long. As much as I enjoyed it in theaters, it's kind of hard to re watch it, all at once anyway.

Cure 12-30-2007 01:18 PM

I'm with Brodie. I liked the first film, but Edward Norton is one of my favorite actors, so I'm super pumped for this.

Barkworm 12-30-2007 01:33 PM

It's funny, I'm excited about this film because I completely despised the Ang Lee one.

Fugitoid Jones 12-31-2007 05:51 AM

I enjoyed Ang Lee's Hulk, but it is hard to rewatch, as the pacing is kinda sluggish. The CGI for the Hulk in some shots looks "incredible", but in some shots looks more like Shrek.

I'm looking forward to Edward Norton as Bruce Banner, cause not only do I like his acting, but one of my complaints with the other film is that I never believed Eric Bana when he was supposed to be angry. He always just seemed like he was acting too hard to be angry.

Oh, and Liv Tyler is going to be in it. .....mmmm...Liv Tyler. Don't get me wrong, Jennifer Connelly is pretty good looking, but she hasn't really done it for me as much since she had a breast reduction.

Z2 already mentioned that Ed Norton redid the screenplay that Zak Penn wrote, but Louis Leterrier (the Transporter, Transporter 2, Unleashed aka Danny the Dog) is directing.
