Tokka: Yes, it really does seem a little too heavy on the CGI effects, and that bothers me a little bit, but I've heard the story is really good and that to me is more important than the special effects. I'm looking forward to it. But I do agree with you at least in part about the CGI, I hope it looks better in the actual movie than it does in the trailers. Too many movies rely on CGI nowadays, I miss when directors actually had to create special effects instead of just having people push buttons on a keyboard.

Matthew: Yea, it sure seems that way doesn't it? It all started with Blade... when Blade made money, Marvel finally went ahead with a lot of their long-planned movie projects like X-Men and Spider-Man. Now that the money is rolling in, they're apparently gonna bring some of their other long-awaited movies to life. I know Hulk and Fantastic Four have been in various stages of planning for at least ten years.

Fantastic Four was actually completed back in 1993 or so, but it was shelved on the grounds that it was... well... terrible.

Iron Man... I will probably see it, but I'm not much of an Iron Man fan. This one seems like a "cash in on the Marvel Movie Craze" decision, since I haven't heard anything about it since recently. Same goes for Ghost Rider and Punisher. Wasn't that Dolph Lundren movie enough? LoL I think they just wanna make up for the fact that they didn't put the skull on his shirt the first time around.

The one good thing about all this is it has DC interested in making movies again too, and if the end result is a new (GOOD) Superman movie, and/or a Batman movie, then let the movies keep coming out.

Personally, if I could see any comic book character made into a movie that's never been done before, I'd pick Green Lantern.

True that

~~Leo656~~ · 06-10-2003, 05:47 PM

Any ideas for Hal Jordan? I'm trying not to but I keep thinking Tom Cruise for a younger version of Hal. Which sucks cuz I don't like Tom Cruise, I just can't think of anyone else.

~~Tokka-B~~ · 06-10-2003, 06:19 PM

Hmmm, yea I would like to see DC finally create some of its own movies now, too.

I'm gunna scew this a bit and talk about the New MTV Spider-Man, I have very little to say other that I love the Fact that they have Michael Clark Duncan reprising his role as king Pin. But I can't wait to hear Rob Zombie as the Lizard

Seriously, it looks fine in still shots but some of the scenes of Hulk in motion have looked really fake in the trailers. Ah well, we'll see. (shrug))

Because they sped the frame rate up to make it more exciting. I still say the CGI will be completely awesome in the film. (Have you seen the TV ads lately that involved the Hulk not running through the canyon? Jeez, that's pretty damn good, espeically Banner transforming!)

But seriously, where are you going to find a guy this big to be used as the Hulk?

At least the CGI isn't as bad as the Scorpion King.

~~Leo656~~ · 06-10-2003, 10:01 PM

Well, they COULD have just had a really, really big, muscular guy play the Hulk and then fiddle with the film to make it LOOK like he was 14 or so feet tall... y'know, the way they used to do it way back when.

I guess I'm just not really a big fan of moviemakers relying too heavily on CGI. I mean the Hulk CGI looks better than most movies, but I really think that most movies use it way too much nowadays. Ever since Star Wars Episode I and The Matrix every movie is like 40-50% computer effects. Less is more, as they say. There's definitely a place for CGI in film, but they really need to scale it back a little, I think.

Well, the general public have become aware of CGI and they are too used to it to the point where the could tell what is fake in a film that uses CGI. If they were to use old SFX techniques, the movie would look outdated. (I wonder if this has been discussed before when Stop Motion Animation was the main SFX tool back in the 80s....)

Pepzi · 06-10-2003, 11:42 PM

yeah, ireckon it'll be a good movie to see... i hope... i did hear it's gonna be good.

*That Matt Guy* · 06-11-2003, 01:33 AM

Damn, it looks like Hulk's skin was made in the image of a Nerf ball.

liltimmyw · 06-11-2003, 08:47 AM

Blah...I don't care about how real he looks. He's the Hulk. I'm sure it isn't easy to do what they've done with him. He looks fine to me.

*Mars-Chan* · 06-11-2003, 09:53 AM

I agree, Timmy. He's the Hulk. Who CARES how he's done...because he's the Hulk!
