The Incredible Hulk Hype Meter - How hyped are you?

[HULKFish]

Werent they waiting on a new graphics engine (is that the proper term?) that was supposed to be a V2.0 of the one used to render the Silver Surfer in FF? Honestly, I think that they made a mistake in releasing that head shot of their Hulk concept so early. I would have waited and released a high-res shot of a fully rendered image, 'cause once it is rendered, it's going look quite different than the released pic.

I don't think they'd wait for a software program that hasn't been released yet... That would be a little crazy!

As far as the image I don't see how it could be so different unless they've done revisions because Aaron Sims does 3-d sculpts for his images using Z-Brush and another program I can't think of right now...

Overall, I don't think they're making a mistake, look how worked up we are (the general fan population) over this. From January till June seems like MORE THEN ENOUGH time to hype this movie, lol!

I dunno about this, so far I feel much more hype for Iron Man, even though he´s a less known and popular character than Hulk. Let´s face it, the ghost of the first movie´s BO disappointment still haunts this movie.

I'm thinking the same thing! I want this movie to do well but maybe they made this movie to close to the original and people may compare it to it. They have to release some kind of teaser soon that will wow the audience and get people pumped to see it.

I know how u are feeling, but December is the key month here. Everyone is busy shopping for Christmas and not many people are going to the movies in masses yet. When Christmas hits, the Hulk madness will start saturating the web, tv, movies and boards. The posters, trailer/teaser should be out by Christmas and slamming us at the Superbowl.

Hopefully you're right because I want to get more info on this movie & it's been too long already in my eyes. I really want to see what the Abomination looks like & if you're right, we should have a picture next month.

They will probably release a lot of stuff 2 months prior to the film being released. They do not want to release unfinished CGI of Hulk or Abomination as people complained about Hulk looking too cartoony in Ang's Hulk. They want everything to be perfect.

I was thinking the other day on how there is no hype for this movie....although it's early I have seen other comic movies like Spider-Man 3 had buzz starting right after the second movie was released which was three years apart....of course they left that cliffhanger at the end that helped....

I am eagerly waiting to see the tralier, and hope that it's as good as Iron Man's if not better.....

 

[The Hulk]

there was more hype for ghost rider, teaser, pics, and that movie was ****e!!!

 

[Docker2.0]

Agreed! They don't ahve to show the Hulk or Abomy, just a teaser, something from the movie to tease the public so they know it's coming and it's something to look forward to. Right now, we have no clue what we are getting, only that Norton and Tyler are in it.

 

[Orko Is King]

I'm really surprised they haven't released ANYTHING official yet. Iron Man already has several official stills, a poster, a teaser trailer and an international trailer...and that comes out over a full month BEFORE TIH. All we've seen is a few grainy pictures of marketing tie-ins and some concept art.

 

[Movies205]

Do they even have anything to show? They're not even finished filmingt:

 

[The Joker_1000]

I'm pretty sure they should have something to show. At the least they need to have pictures of everyone in the cast on set & the Hulk & the Abomination.

 

[Advanced Dark]

They'll show it when it's the right time to show it.

 

[Khemik@L]

EB is the filming complete as yet? If not when will it be complete?

Don't get it twisted, Aaron Sims has a fully rendered version of the Hulk already, but Marvel will sue the pants off his company if its leaked. Remember the Empire magazine fiasco where the Hulk looked fake? They dont want a repeat and there won't be. As you can see the Aaron Sims pic was rendered from the 3-D model, not vice versa. They scan the model and texturize it. I have the CD he sent me showing the technique. War of the Worlds was spot on accurate regarding the aliens and the Hulk should be also. December is big, remember the Christmas day trailers at the movies. I suspect, just maybe, the I AM LEGEND movie might show a teaser. I have my fingers crossed.

 

[The Joker_1000]

They'll show it when it's the right time to show it.

I, as well as a bunch of other people feel it's already the right time to start dishing out information & pictures.

 

[EmeraldBeast]

Marketing, marketing and marketing. The right time is when Marvel says okay. This is playing out just like a soap opera. We all want the Hulk now. Why take the pie outta the oven before its fully cooked. I dont want raw, I want well done and yeah pun is intended, lol.

 

[Advanced Dark]

I, as well as a bunch of other people feel it's already the right time to start dishing out information & pictures.

And I imagine you all have degree's in marketing. I seriously doubt the people in charge will brush aside their education and common sense to listen to a bunch (8 people) of impatient fans. LOL

 

[Docker2.0]

It's not just 8 impatient fans though. Honestly, I want what's best for the movie and I'm telling you that other than the fans who follow the character and KNOW that their is a movie coming out, there hasn't been any. Even among the fans who know it's coming out there isn't that much. TDK and IM both had teasers released and they have release dates close to the Hulk.

 

[Advanced Dark]

The movie doesn't come out till mid June 2008. It's November 2007. Relax. Iron Man comes out in early May, and we've all seen Bale as the Dark Knight. In Iron Man we only saw a skeleton of what's to come as far as CGI but in order to make a trailer it worked. However The Hulk and Abom are 100% CGI or animatronics and that's a whole different animal. Being impatient won't help you see it any sooner so just be patient...good things come to those who wait.

In the meantime stare at this for a few minutes to clear your mind and before you know it you'll see a teaser.

 

[Docker2.0]

I don't like how the Hulk looks in that teaser.

 

[EmeraldBeast]

I don't like how the Hulk looks in that teaser.

What teaser? The Poster?

 

[Khemik@L]

What teaser? The Poster?

LOL! Naw EB he probably talking bout the Advance Hypnotist. He was joking. By the way EB do you know if they have finish filming the hulk? If not how much longer before they are complete?

 

[Cousin Itt]

Awww ripoff! I only saw Jim Morrison.

December.

[SpaghettiHULK]

the I AM LEGEND movie might show a teaser. I have my fingers crossed.

Isn't The Dark Knight teaser fixed with I AM LEGEND?
And isn't I AM LEGEND from WB? While TIH is Universal... the teaser will be brought by another Universal Movie. Isn't it?
