It all depends on what version of the Hulk you're a fan of.
Sure, and I think it's going to be pretty much a given that you'll get the version you like in the film. Personally I like the original version the best; I think an eight-foot-tall, four-foot-wide, green, pissed-off Vic Mackey is much scarier than the purple-pants version, but then I'm not averse to that particular incarnation, either. The only thing I don't like about it is the dialogue. "BAH! STUPID MAN WITH CAPE MAKES MORE NOISE TO BOTHER HULK!" Eeewwww. Call me a philistine but "HULK IS STRONGEST ONE THERE IS!" is an awful, awful line of dialogue. I don't care how "iconic" it supposedly is, it's just plain bad. Like I said before, "Hulk smash" is an essential line and must be in the film, but personally I think that that's the only time the third-person stuff should be used.
For most it's the old school, green skin, jade jaws that personifies the Hulk the best.
Debatable. The general public may like the moron version from the TV show, because that's what they're used to. As for comics fans, I think that the Savage Hulk is the preference of a relatively hefty, yet even more vocal minority. Now you could create a poll, and a hundred message board posters could all jump on and vote for Savage, but I reckon the proof is in the sales. They've tried at numerous times to bring back Savage but time and time again it lasts, for the most part, only a couple of months.
The Hulk is the opposite of Bruce Banner so that means big, strong, powerful, courageous, and yes....child like. So the best speech patern for the Hulk would be "HULK IS STRONGEST THERE IS".
But why?
Again, how many children do you know that speak in the third-person? If anything, he should speak kinda like Charlie Gordon from
Flowers for Algernon.
Spidey made a good defence for the third-person stuff a few posts back and it sounds nice in theory, but I've never really seen it utilised in a way that wasn't ham-fisted and cheesy. With the one, single exception, maybe, of
"Hulk: The End."
DISCLAIMER: Before anyone comes out with "Pfft! In
your opinion!" Yeah, well, no $#@%. What else do we have?
