Re-Start or Hulk 2?

[Bad Superman]

Which one do Hulk fans prefer? Just curious. I liked Hulk, but the final battle was very dissapointing. I wouldn't mind a re-start with a cast commited for at least three films. Vote on.

[Sabretooth]

restart

[Spider-Fan]

Hulk 2. I thought Hulk was a great movie, and definately left room for you to do more with the characters.

[Hoedowned]

Hulk 2. And really badass this time.

[torkibe]

I don't think they need a re-start... Add more action, drop the Hulk growing to the size of a house, and take away some of the Soap opera drama feel and it's not so bad.

[Sava]

i want to see Hulk again on the bg screen, so i say Hulk 2

[zanos]

restart

[November Rain]

to be honest at this time i don't want to see either

a restart will be crazy since the first is by best adaptation of a marvel character to the big screen.

however with the pressures of everyone just wanting a rage based film, to see all that happened and was built up in the first film wither away into a random rage and destruction film would just make a lil part of me die inside...

so both are off the cards...i'll rather have one and the ideas of what 2 should be rather than is...

[HULKSTER'04]

are you kidding November rain? everybody is screamming for a sequel and you think that it should not be done? maybe you're a fanboy of another comics so take a hike!

[SpiderHulkThing]

Hulk 2. Now that the background story has been done, lets get Hulk to pound the $*** out of things. My only greviences with the last one was that there wasn't enough action. Or at least, they had too many slow moments. I'm really looking forward to it.

[November Rain]

are you kidding November rain? everybody is screamming for a sequel and you think that it should not be done? maybe you're a fanboy of another comics so take a hike!you'd rather have a bad sequel than none at all?

[dark_b]

you'd rather have a bad sequel than none at all?yeah :o
what logic is that? of course we would have rather a bad sequel than nothing. at least we would get something. its not like you will pay to make the movie.

[November Rain]

well i'd rather have nothing.

:)

[Sava]

i agree with Rain

[dark_b]

hmmmmm. explain me this because i am confused.

[el sensei]

hulk 2

[el sensei]

hulk 2 just needs a lot of action and a beeter final boss. one that the hulk can slug with not that stupid and fight he had

[Sabretooth]

I'm starting to think they're waiting so long for the next Hulk so CGI technology will reach its peak. If that's the case,just go for a sequel. If it sucks,well then they can go for a restart.

[Sava]

hmmmmm. explain me this because i am confused.
here it is... Hulk 2 like B&R means we wait for another 10 years for a Hulk film, which will mean a restart. If they dont make Hulk 2 because the story isnt good, then we wait another 5 years for Hulk film that will be a restart ...see?

[dark_b]

here it is... Hulk 2 like B&R means we wait for another 10 years for a Hulk film, which will mean a restart. If they dont make Hulk 2 because the story isnt good, then we wait another 5 years for Hulk film that will be a restart ...see?i know this. but you are saying no hulk. it looks like i didnt understand you. because from your post i thought you dont wana see a new hulk movie.

[November Rain]

to be honest, if they don't have a decent story a film should never be made, no matter on the delay.

and this is a statement that could be used for all films.

[dark_b]

to be honest, if they don't have a decent story a film should never be made, no matter on the delay.

and this is a statement that could be used for all films.while i agree . but realesing a movie is like gambling. studio realeses a movie and hopes that people wil llike them. how can they be sure that movie will be popular? they would need to lea scripts on the net :)

isnt this like a matter of opinion? ok i agree that some movies are just bad. and mean bad. :up::)

[Sava]

to be honest, if they don't have a decent story a film should never be made, no matter on the delay.

and this is a statement that could be used for all films.... they have a great story in Abominations' origin from the comics. Change some of the things to suit to big screen but othere than that, Hulk 2 with Abomination could kick ass

[November Rain]

isnt this like a matter of opinion? ok i agree that some movies are just bad. and mean bad. :up::)it's not as much a matter of opinion as you think.

it comes down to correct marketing, knowing your audience and also your fanbase...

there are good films that people generallly can't dispute, it's whether you think they are great that a matter of opinion really comes into play. There are films i don't like but i respect because the genre really isn't mine.

and some gambles are bigger than others, you pretty much know if you are sitting on a good thing. script leaks are not necessary.

[November Rain]

... they have a great story in Abominations' origin from the comics. Change some of the things to suit to big screen but othere than that, Hulk 2 with Abomination could kick assstill think there's enough for additional story to build up without having another 'monster' character added.

to me, that just seems like it may be an easy way to cash in, and would be better off used later on...

kinda similar to the way i feel venom is to spidey, a simple equal and opposite kinda character.

later on?... Hulk needs all the help it can get, Abomination is the perfect character to be in a sequel, they get the story right and the action. It will really help the franchise.

[November Rain]

I've read posts by other hype members on this boards showing potential how a film could be done without another monster (per say) in order to keep the hulk as an unique entity and i think it would work...

there are things one must consider with the abomination in the hulk films. Since i believe is one of the best adaptations of a comic characters to a real lie envrionment, one then comes to question if this realism is to continue, then what is likely going to be the fate of abomination. Is he going to be killed off as another villain or kept. Even so would that not lead to some sort of super soldier refinement serum or something along those lines?

At this stage of the day potential problems (and also the interaction between full cgi characters for long spans of time) may cause more problems than solving them.

so in saying this, i think a good story can be whipped out without an external monster source for hulk to battle being used.

however if abomination was used i would also like to tie in the possible radiation poisoning that led to Betty Ross' death being blamed on the hulk. That would be nice but again that's for later on and i envision it happening in the fourth film.

but if it never lasts till then then i don't mind as long as it doesnt finish on a whimper.

i agree with everything you said... there could be a great Hulk film without another monster in there..but, we all know that Marvel are going for action in the sequel. I like the idea of Radiation poisoning for Battey, i always liked that story from the comics.

[BHD]

start over. i thought hulk was a good movie, but not good in representing the comics

[S_H_F_4839]

I would like to see a Hulk 2 made.

Villans should be Atheon, Leader, Abomination.

Hero's added would only be Doc Samson.

supporting characters, Rick Jones added, to Betty and General Ross.

and The Hulk is the main character but you would not necessarily need to see him for the first twenty or thirty minutes, build up the fact that the military not to mention atheon are searching trying to find him because neither group truely belives him dead. When Atheon can't find them, they sanction bringing in the second in the field that banner was working on, his old college rival Sam Sterns, they were both competeing for the grant to berkley banner got it and Sterns has held a grudge, he rushes his research and when they test it on Emil Blonsky, who is secretly working for Ross to keep an eye on Atheon.

Doc Samson is Harper psychiatrist, because he still blames himself for the accident that caused bruce to change. He would meet Betty after Harper finally talks her into seeing him.

Doc Samson is a result of a second experiment when he is captured by the abomination trying to break into atheon's labs.

Sterns becomes the Leader when he thinks he has isolated what is required to keep the intellegence and the strength together but it doesn't work and he becomes the leader.

Rick Jones and some friends seeing how much money people like Knoxville and Margera made doing stunts are trying a similar thing but went to south america to ride the rivers there, Rick gets separated from the group and the one that finds him is Banner.

This is just a brief summary of the story I wrote as a direct sequel last year.

Let's see a SEQUAL, here ladies!

[\S/JcDc\S/]

A sequel without rehashing the tired background story would be nice. Also, I'd like to see a different looking Hulk.

[zanos]

Quite frankly I think a restart is the only way to go to eliminate the stench of the first film from ppl's minds. The idea is to get box office. It's a much bigger gamble to make a sequel out of a horrible film that a majority of the public didn't like. Not to mention you're also going to have a harder time finding a quality director to follow in the footsteps of a bad film.

[Spoarz™]

I'd much rather see a sequel to Hulk than a restart, just so long as they bring back the same cast.

[fangrl06]

A restart to Hulk? that would bomb worse than the first.

[IronSpidy]

Start over. Everything new. New cast, new Hulk.

[Class100strngth]

Restart for sure , the move wasnt that bad though

[IronSpidy]

A sequel without rehashing the tired background story would be nice. Also, I'd like to see a different looking Hulk.I too would like to see a diffrent looking Hulk. Do you guys think a gray Hulk has a chance in the next movie?

[realestmutant45]

Gonna make a Hulk 2.

[Wolverini]

Restart ... no Ang-Lee Hulk 2.

Hulk sucked as a movie. Dragged on WAY TOO long ... ashame really ... I kinda liked the character in the comics

[Robot Komakino]

Hulk 2

[HulkofSteel]

Hulk 2. We don't need another origin story. Ang Lee set the table with the first movie. Now it's time to serve the main course. The inner turmoil is good, but there needs to be more action and rage to go along with it. The Leader and Abomination would be perfect to get ole Green Skin going.

Oh, and if Hulk happens to find himself on the back of a jet again, don't allow a little cockpit canopy to keep him from getting inside. Hulk can demolish a tank, but he can't pop the top off of an F22? Come on...

:hulk:

[Sabretooth]

they might just go with the late sequel. It's happening with Superman,Basic Instinct,etc. And at least with the late sequel we won't have to worry about them ****ing up the origin again.

[El Payaso]

Hulk 2.

But as November Rain said, if they're gonna make a comedy because of a sudden 'drama fear' or an action average film because of 'movie with a brain fear', they better do Daredevil 2.

[Atomic Crusader]

The first film was so unique that its hard to imagine a sequel carried on in the same manner. It would be great if they would bring back the same great cast but give it the full-on action treatment, like Terminator 2.

[webhead731]

I might like a Hulk II. A restart could be good in a way, but it might be a little confusing for some younger kids. And when a friend and I want to watch Hulk, I would have to ask, "Which one? Ang Lee's Hulk, or [Blank's] Hulk?"

LOL! Maybe a Hulk II will be better.:)

I liked Hulk, even though it took like a half hour to see Hulk, and the final battle was a little confusing at the end, but it's still one of my most favorite movies.:hulk:

[Cosmic]

I think they should just go ahead and restart the damn thing. It's not going to come out for so long that they're going to have to do a complete recast, anyway. And we already know they want to change some things.

It's safe to say that they don't want to make another Ang Lee Hulk movie. So start over, start fresh, quicken the pace, get rid of "repressed memories," and build a quality film franchise that will last for years.

[TheVileOne]

When a first movie disappoints, chances are people aren't going to want to see a sequel.

[Trooper]

hulk was a good movie no need to restart

[Octavias]

I still say restart. Lee actually got a lot right with the emotional aspect, but he tried to cram decades of revelations and concepts into one movie. The first movie really should have focused on the man of science who disdained violence, who lived a controled life, who always thought his way out of problems dealing with the loss of that control and reliance on primal instincts to survive as well as the people around him desperately trying to subdue and/or anhialate him out of fear of something so powerful and uncontrolable. there was just so much more crammed into that movie that you get a three hour piece done with ten hours of material. moreover, they sold it as an action piece but it was a real thinking emotional movie.

At this point with the way the first movie ends, there are two real options, take it into TV as a series like the old one, where he goes town to town hiding from the Govt and helping people out, or redo it with a better set up for a movie franchise.

[dutchmarvel]

Hulk 2 (Stil think that it is strange that it look like there have pland it and the movie is out now or pland,if you see the end of the movie.)

With that end what the movie get,you expect it that there have pland it.
So give us what there have pland for Hulk 2.

[PhotoJones]

just make a better sequel

[TheSumOfGod]

I wanna see Hulk 2, with Wolverine and the Abomination going against Hulk.

[Brian Braddock]

Hulk 2 - they dont need a restart - all the groundworks been laid - now they can cram more action and smashing into the sequel.

[DTX]

What, a REMIX or something?! I'll go with SEQUAL, homes!

[Hugebear]

i agree with everything you said... there could be a great Hulk film without another monster in there..but, we all know that Marvel are going for action in the sequel. I like the idea of Radiation poisoning for Battey, i always liked that story from the comics.

No monster villains for Hulk 2?

Igor
The Gargoyle
Ringmaster
Metal MasterI would like to see them try. :)

[Lunar_Wolf]

I would like if they restarted the whole thing again. I saw Hulk for my b-day and jeez I was so dissapointed. Two things I really wanted to see in the movie was Bruce's transformation into the Hulk with CGI and his origin.

First off the origin was f***ed. I hated how Mr. Lee added the whole comic book effect when he got blasted with the rays. I wanted Bruce to be in the dessert getting blowen away by the blast and changing into grey Hulk.

I was looking forward to Bruce's transformation to The Hulk, but no it look rather unimpressive. The Hulk back in the 80's or whenever it was scared me more, honestly it did. Bruce transfroming into the Hulk always creeped me out, but in the movie it wasn't good enough.:hulk:

[antonydelfini]

a sequel for me. i think it would be a disgrace to just throw in the trash can what ang lee did for the movie. though boring, i felt effort from ang lee to deliver a movie that actually understands what being the hulk is all about. his heart and effort could be felt throughout the movie, as the film never tried to pull some cheap popcorn movie scenes like dd and f4 did.

a lot of fans appreciate his love for puny banner, but unfortunately hates his understanding of what makes hulk so damn appealing, which is smashing. so i'd say replace the director with someone who loves banner the way ang lee did but someone who understands that hulk should smash a lot in order for the film to work.

[GoldGoblin]

Restart the franchise.

[Hugebear]

Hulk 2. I thought Hulk was a great movie, and definately left room for you to do more with the characters.

:up: The ending for the movie was great. The military and Ross think Banner is dead. Banner gets caught up in a dangerous plot that will cause him great pain and make him mad as hell. Somewhere else in the world, another powerful being will come into existence that will be too powerful for the world to stop. :D

[rodhulk]

Hulk 2 because if you were to do a re-start, you'd have to wait a couple decades or so. It wouldn't make sense to do it 5 or so years later.

If they want changes, they can find them:

1) Something can happen that causes the Hulk only to grow to 7-9 feet or so.

2) We can have more Hulk from the start to the end.

[Cracker Jack]

LOL either way we're in for a long wait. Re=start and get it right thins time. :up: :)

[rodhulk]

LOL either way we're in for a long wait. Re=start and get it right thins time. :up: :)Sadly, mr. Jack, you are correct. The wait, either way, is gonna be lengthy.

[Cracker Jack]

Good to see you again Rodhulk:) Who knows, maybe they're working on a script right now and this time everyone will be happy with the end result. I hope.

[rodhulk]

Good to see you again Rodhulk:) Who knows, maybe they're working on a script right now and this time everyone will be happy with the end result. I hope.Hey, CJ. I'm doing great. Yourself?

And btw, what did you vote, re-start or Hulk 2? I went with Hulk 2.

[Cracker Jack]

Hey, CJ. I'm doing great. Yourself?

And btw, what did you vote, re-start or Hulk 2? I went with Hulk 2.

At this point I'll take what I can get. I think however, that a re-start is really the only way to help the franchise get on the right track.

[rodhulk]

At this point I'll take what I can get. I think however, that a re-start is really the only way to help the franchise get on the right track.Maybe, but you know, since the movie came out on dvd, there are a ton of kids wearing Hulk shirts and clothing these days. A sequel, if advertised properly and made properly, could do real well.

You think they should go with Ang or somebody else?

[Cracker Jack]

You think they should go with Ang or somebody else?

Ang wasn't really the problem with the first movie is was the writers. I don't know how much input Ang had or what he changed. I know he had something to do with the change in the origin and the gamma shpere. I would mind Angs take on a correct story, true to the comic origin with no growth hormones. However, I don't think Ang will be back. I'd love to see what Peter Jackson and WETTA could do for the Hulk. :up:

All of those suggestions would be good - although I'd be a little nervous about directors like Spielberg or Cameron at the helm as you would never know what they would change (look what Cameron wanted to do with his Spiderman!!)

My choice would be Alex Proyas.

BTW, cool avvy. :up: What do you think of mine? :D ;)

hulk 2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9. Just keep making them

[Sava]

hmm... artistic :D

[rodhulk]

hmm... artistic :DAnd colorful! :)

[Katsuro]

You have to be on heavy medication to think they could do a restart in any less than 20 years or so. How confusing would it be if within a few years they released a new Hulk origin film?

Just give us a sequel, and fix what you can while still maintaining continuity. Better villain, more action, better effects, etc. It's better than remaking a 3 year old film.

[IronMan_2005]

Hulk 2 all the way.

Hulk 2003 was a great movie, and a good modern origin, lets leave it alone, now bring on the Abomination and more HULK SMASH!!

and get Guillermo Del Toro (Hellboy) as the director.

[spideyrunner]

Hulk 2 would be best !!...let's move on !!

[Hades]

REtstAR THE BOBBBBBIESSSSSSSSSSSSSSS

[thorstone]

Without any of the original actors, they should just start over, and have a good villain for the ending.

I would also simplify everything, just make Bruce a mutant who's mutation is brought on by the gama rays; bam, that is all you have to know.

[DTX]

HULK 2, beotches!

[Rac]

Hulk 2 though I hated the origin story they developed for the movie. Gamma bomb would have been so much better.

[DTX]

Good!

[BAH HUMBBUG!]

Why would anyone want a restart? The film was one of the better Marvel ones.

[DTX]

All things considerin'.

[storyteller]

All they need to do is put more action in the film and keep hulk at the size he was when bruce first transformed. Oh and lose all the damn dark scenes.

[Spiked]

Definitely Hulk 2. :up:

[BAH HUMBBUG!]

All they need to do is put more action in the film and keep hulk at the size he was when bruce first transformed. Oh and lose all the damn dark scenes.

:rolleyes:

Yeah Heaven forbid they actually give the main character some depth.

[XCharlieX]

The story is the last thing wrong with hulk as far as im concerned. And more action? IMO they broke loose when it was appropriate. The dogfight and desert scenes, anf final battle i liked a lot.

[BAH HUMBBUG!]

Agreed :up:

[Golgo-13]

I say 're-start' ala the Batman franchise. Like any Hulk, fan i've waited for years to see the green goliath on screen but what we got was not what i wanted.It'll be worth the wait if it's done correct. that being said, i hated X Men 1 but X Men 2 redeemed my faith in the franchise...i can't see it now but Hulk 2 could go the same way....

[iceberg325]

I say restart. The movie was very promising but the end result IMO was bad. Restart it fresh, new cast, director, story etc...

[BAH HUMBBUG!]

You people do realise that if Marvel does a restart that they will probably just wait longer to make the movie.

[iceberg325]

I think in the hulks case, that wouldnt be so bad.

[BAH HUMBBUG!]

Yeah you're right it should just be all "hulk smash" with no character development or story.

I think in the hulks case, that won't happen.

[Golgo-13]

Yeah you're right it should just be all "hulk smash" with no character development or story.

The problem with the fick wasn't with the character devlopement nor the story, is was the way the story was executed on screen and the choice of the villan.
The cgi as awesome to me...well most of it......

[hulkwillsmash]

Wow. First post in a LOOOONG time.

Sequel, definately.

While I can't argue that there were disappointing elements of the first movie that I wish they'd erased entirely (a list of which I may just turn into an entire post...why not come back with a bang), the biggest complaint from most people was that Lee's emphasis on the origin, setup, and drama ate up most of the screen time and never seemed to build towards the big payoff. That being said, superhero sequels have the benefit of letting you get to the good stuff quicker, and I'd rather not invite people's impression of another movie to be "oh...good...MORE of how he became the Hulk"

I'm not a pro here, but it isn't rocket science:

Have the Hulk wrecking something in the opening sequence
Calm him back down and setup Banner off living in wherever he's living
Betty's trying to help him remotely, i.e. sparse comunication, etc.
Emil Blonsky (anybody else feel like a script writer is probably going to change his name?) exposes himself to gamma radiation
Bruce's "cure" isn't complete and depowers him into the grey Hulk
Blonsky transforms, wrecks stuff, can't change back
Decides to kidnap Betty to force Banner out of hiding to cure him
Banner shows up as the Grey Hulk, fights and loses
Abomination leaps away with Betty.
Ross revives Banner, makes a deal with him
Banner amps up to Green Hulk (i.e. "Hulk is angry...")
[20min. - 2 hour] Hulk/Abomination super fight
Betty rescued, Ross backs out of deal
Banner escapes (have him hitchhiking down the road, g*da*it! Haha.)

Or something like that.

[Obi-Ron]

Not bad, but I can do without Joe Fixit.

No but that's what a lot of people seem to think.

[hulkwillsmash]

Not bad, but I can do without Joe Fixit.

Nor do I, really. But I think that since they most likely will put a grey Hulk in there, I'd be fine with using him as an early-generation monster that isn't as powerful...two birds, one stone.

I also feel like it's really important to have two fights, the first one being Hulk losing. Part of the excitement in Tales to Astonish 90/91 was the Hulk being beaten - not so common a thing in those days. I think it'd mean more to the overall story and restore the coolest thing about the Hulk: that "oh crap..." moment when you know a beatdown is coming.

[BAH HUMBBUG!]

I'd like to see Banner come back and the reason is because he thinks he has figured out a way cure himself. Possibly resulting in Joe Fix it or just a grey Hulk. Then in doing this he realises he didn't cure himself and creates the Hulk Busters.

I liked The Hulk. Not great, not bad. I say a sequel, but if it was a remake I wouldn't mind, if done better.

They were OK. Oddly, they could put a "Sunny Delight" ad on the DVD, but not the movie's trailers.

We already saw the cure for mutants in X-men 3.
Though if Banner does try to cure himself, it should be like the comics (Tales to Astonish 90/91).
They can do it with out the grey Hulk. Just when he's about to cure himself, the military police capture him like in the comic. At the end Abomination throws a car at Betty and that makes the Hulk so angry he gets strong enough to beat him.

do you think if we get a grey hulk we can get grey hulk dogs too? lame-o

The biggest difference about the Tales To Astonish story was that Banner was NOT trying to cure himself - he was trying to kill himself. The Hulk had been taken control of by the Stranger and when he reverted back to Banner, made the decision that he was too great a threat to be left alive. He had intended to overdose on the gamma...

While the Stranger stuff isn't going to make the cut in the sequel, it would be very easy to have Banner create such a machine after coming to from an opening rampage...

[DTX]

Yeah, I never THOUGHT on that before..........:ghost:

[Atomicchuck3k]

Let's have a DO-OVER!

WHY the hell would ya' want THAT???!!

The dogs were pretty bad.

Do away with the Split screen action - it was annoying and distracting.

Villan - something or someone more realistic.

Storyline with substance - Quality over quantity tho.

Get rid of those dogs they were dumb.

Hulks ultimate challenge tho I think should be Banner himself.

[DTX]

I'd say the split-screen thing drastically added to the suspenseful momentum of the flick...wouldn't you say?.....

I know he was trying to kill himself, but I was talking about the cure idea (look at the posts about the cure). I changed it to cure because it didn't make sense that he would try to kill himself by getting hit by the same gamma rays that created the Hulk.
But now we have seen the cure in X-men 3 and FF4, so now I guess he should try to kill himself instead.
I think Banner should be able to die. Then people would be afraid that he could die. There would be a sense of danger when he is Banner. He should try to shoot his brains out first. :D

Yeah, that would sound about right. :marv:

[GL's Light]

Restart or Hulk 2? Somewhere in between. The story should continue with Banner on the run and no rehashed origin. But there should be a new director (much of Ang's work on the first was very good - but it didn't connect with the public, and he doesn't want to do another one anyway), and a new lead actor playing Bruce Banner/Hulk (Eric Bana's lacklustre central performance was a big problem in the first film). The style and tone should be fast-paced and action-packed, but still maintain a deeper dramatic integrity.

"iF: So will you be recasting HULK with completely new actors?



ARAD: It’s a “do-over”. I loved the HULK movie, it was just a different approach, and it wasn’t exactly the comic. We want to be much closer to the comic. It’s what we would rather do."

Well it seems like they're doing a restart and by the sound of it Hulk will be like FF or X3 - all flash and no substance... Arad is dumbing down all of Marvel's properties.

[Symbiote Hulk]

WHY the hell would ya' want THAT???!!

No kidding, they should go with Hulk 2.

Doesn't mean that they'll re-do it. He might've meant that they might make it more like the comic in Hulk 2.

Hulk 1 was PERFECT! Just accept it as it is!!@

[Octoberist]

I have to say that I'm not a fan of Ang Lee's "Hulk".

BUT...

I don't think a 'restart' is needed at all. Hulk wasn't that bad of a movie to redo the cast and everything else. In fact, it's stupid. They already had a great cast. I liked Banna...and how can you replace Jennifer Connerlly? Is that FRIGGIN' LEGAL?

I just think that Batman Begins, and I love that movie, probably started a dangerous thread in Hollywood when it comes to 'restarts'. Hollywood would always take a good thing and ruin it by abusing a concept or misinterpret the original intent.

I wouldnt say its perfect. I think the end scene where hulk fought his pops was pretty bad. Well maybe we should wait and see how part 2 ends up. If thats good then forget a restart. If its really bad, then wait some years and redo the series.

[Symbiote Hulk]

Hulk 1 was PERFECT! Just accept it as it is!!@

Well, I wouldn't call it perfect either but close too it.

[Lobster Charlie]

I wouldn't even call it close. I'd say it missed the mark by quite a bit. I'd say it barely got any of it right. Well, hmmm..come to think of it, the Hulk DID run through the desert and fought the army, so I guess they got that part right.

But let's face it...if this movie was so great, they wouldn't need to restart the franchise, especially not so soon. They flubbed, they admitted it, they're making an effort to fix their mistakes. God Bless 'em.

[spideymusprime]

If they're keeping the same cast I'd go for Hulk 2
