First of all, thanks for coming here Mr. Leterrier
Second, i´m not the kind of person to sweet talk because you are the director of (in this case), The Hulk.
I´m sure you are intelligent man, and as so, i´m going to treat you like one and be direct about it, i really hope you can make a bad place of a movie.
I´m not one of your biggest fans out there (i liked The Transporter 2 because of Jason Statham and i liked Unleashed, which is, IMO, your best movie to date), but i´m more than willing to be
I hope that everything goes for the best, for you and for Hulk.
Now the questions....
1- Is this going to be a sequel to Lee´s movie or a restart?
(i´m going to ask questions as it was a restart, if it´s not, please answer them as a sequel)
2- I´m a huge fan of Lee´s Hulk, IMO, the best comic book movie so far, because it was the one that most got the character, but it´s not perfect, it has a lot of flaws to it.
Now, because i´m such a huge fan, when i heard the announcement that you were the one going to direct it, i was less than...thrilled about it.
My first reaction was that it was going to be a mindless action movie, insted of the psychological drama Ang Lee made.
So, the question is, what are you going to change, update and keep, from Lee´s movie?
I know that you are going to make your thing, but what will be the tone of the movie?
Psychological dramatic thriller with action, or action movie with psychological and dramatic bits?
3- Hulk is the physical manifestation of Banner´s repressed feelings, and not just a monster he turns into.
Agree?
Now are you going to handle this?
Now serious and adult will the movie be, when you are handling stuff like this, and not just two monsters (Hulk and Abomination) fighting each other?
4- Rick Jones is a very important character in the Hulk mythos, and he was MIA in Lee´s movie.
Are you going to use him?
5- Tell me, why is Rick Jones so important to Hulk? Why is Abomination such a great villain to Hulk?
6- I always thought that conspiracy theories suit comic books, ok, not all, but Batman, Captain America, Wolverine, Superman, just to name a few.....and
Hulk.
So, i always defended that Hulk should be born in some experience gone wrong that not even Banner knows exactly what it was, rather than a accident or a subotage from a Russian spy.
Even cooler would be that, even being the one in charge, not even Ross knows exactly what they are going, only Talbot does.
Of course that, in the end, because gamma runs in Banner´s veins and DNA, he is the only one that changes into the "perfect example of what they are going".
That would give a much more sinister angle to Abomination and The Leader, and a more racional explanation to why there are so many gamma creatures as villains.
And, IMO, Abomination should be created by The Leader, as The Leader should be Talbot, and not some janitor (that way, there would much more tension between The Leader and Hulk, and, like in the comics, Talbot would "die").
More even, the all "project" started with Bruce´s father, what would make his father even more interesting.
The Leader would be mix of Bruce´s father (intelligence) and Talbot (the rest).
So, to make things short, do you agree with my conspiracy theory idea?
And, is Talbot in the movie?
7- Last, but not least, look at my signature.
Do you agree with it, and how will you address it in your movie?
For now, no more questions, looking foward to your replys.
Oh yeah, before i forget, i know that Banner is almost cast, but i have to take this out of my cheast, one actor that would be perfect to portrati Bruce Banner.
He looks like Banner, you can really picture him that role of a shy, quiet cientist with "skeletons in his closet" that he repressed, he is a great actor....
John Cusack
). Do you personally feel that showing soldiers/civilians being alive and ok is needed?
