The Avengers The Official 'Hulk in Avengers' thread.

[AVEITWITHJAMON]

This is basically the thread were Hulk fans like myself (to be honest, he is the only reason I am looking forward to this movie) can come to discuss, debate, and talk about Hulk's role in the upcoming Avengers movie.

It is here to people can discuss anything regarding the Hulk character and what his role will be or what you want it to be. So go ahead Hulk fans, and discuss.

I think Hulk rampaging should be the original reason the Avengers take action. They have to stop him and bring him in. This should be what makes them heroes. Then a real threat should emerge and The Avengers, Hulk included, have to stop that threat.

 

[Chewy]

They need to do everything they possibly can to get Norton back.

If they can't get Norton back, DON'T recast - use an all-CG Hulk. But have him talk more, give him a personality... basically, make him a character.

That seems logical, the Hulk starting out as a sort of villain, with The Avengers having to capture, but then at the end he is the big hero and is the only one who can stop the bad guy by pummelling him real good. This is what I hope Hulk role goes like in the movies.

Agreed, hope to God Norton comes back, and that they give him a little more to do than they did in TIH.

Thanks for creating this thread. I'm right there with you about Hulk being the main reason I'm looking forward to the Avengers. I hope Marvel doesn't pull a fast one on us and not include him.

Agreed, and hopefully, this thread can become a sort of new home for us now the Hulk forum is gone.

RIP Hulk forums


The biggest question in my mind, beyond Norton's return/non-return, is who is going to handle the CG. ILM handled IM's CG whereas Rhythm&Hues handled TIH's CG. Are they going to separate the work out to the different companies? Or just have ILM do everything?

I hope there is some consistency in Hulk's design.

I see no issue with multiple special effects houses handling it, multiple ones have worked on the likes of the Narnia movies, FF2 and X3 (the latter 2 to not that great effect I will admit), so I see no issue in employing them all to do different jobs.

 

[MadVillainy]

Hulk keeps getting underappreciated Marvel expected it to do well as IM
but how could it when it was so under advertised

TIH was a great film and Norton should return for Avengers and Hulk Sequels

 

[Donnie Darko]

well, not that it's the only way to use him, but I feel like the best way to use the Hulk in this movie has already been done in both TIH and the Ultimates comic. There is a huge threat tearing a city apart (in this case, it would be one that is overpowering the other Avengers), and Bruce Banner gets them to drop him out of a helicopter into the middle of the action, turning in to the Hulk in the process, landing and saving the day.

 

[marcvader]

The Avengers as a team save the day after all this is an Avengers movie and not a Hulk movie. The last thing I want to see is Marvel pull what Fox did with Wolverine.

 

[Daredevil_2003]

I like the Ultimates route where the Hulk is a sorta-villain that the team has to stop. The epic possibilities as an action set-piece early/midway into the film alone is enough reason as to why they should do it that way.

Thats true, but again, it would be an awesome way for it to happen. I want the Hulk to be the ultimate hero in this movie who stops the villain in his tracks. I doubt this movie will have much times to delve into the characters, so Hulk's role will simply be as a brute, but with brute force I hope he stops the villain dead.

This will hopefully make him more popular and give Marvel the confidence to go ahead with a TIH sequel.

Embrace for the worst... I am already looking at possible replacements. As I have said all along... it's not worth paying Norton a large sum of money for a supporting role if they can't negotiate an additional sequel as well. I think Hulk should be one of the main characters... but so should Cap, Thor, and Pym. I don't see Norton coming back in that type of role though. Then again I thought Sony would dump Tobey Maguire and that doesn't appear to be the case... although he ain't appearing in an Avengers type flick and is being paid a heck of a lot more.

 

[Chewy]

I'm already thinking that we'll end up with an all-CG Hulk. Getting Norton back would be awesome, though.

 

[Sarg92]

They do need Norton back for definite! But I fear there would be a clash of power and egos. Norton vs Downey Jr, and the pair vs Marvel!

But Hulk needs to be in The Avengers. He should be the reason the Avengers assemble. Their first mission SHIELD set for them. Then a bigger thread emerges like Loki (what threat is bigger than a god?!) and Hulk and others need to work together to take him out!

 

[Kirk Langstrom]

I think Hulk rampaging should be the original reason the Avengers take action. They have to stop him and bring him in. This should be what makes them heroes. Then a real threat should emerge and The Avengers, Hulk included, have to stop that threat.

Yes, but the rampage should be caused by Loki, to instigate a fight between Hulk and Thor.

Agreed. I'm LIVING for the moment when Hulk punches the smug arrogance right OUT of Iron Man, lol. t:

I agree, if they dont want to make a hulk Sequel they could use the leader who could puppetmaster the whole thing like loki did. You guys know that scene in Ultimate Avengers when IronMan uses his uni-beam to launch hulk into the air just so Giant man can slam him to the ground. That would be so awsome in Live action

Like others have said I think Hulk should be the villain of sorts to start with, not really a villain though, just misunderstood. In the final battle the avengers should be in trouble, about to be wiped out when hulk leaps in starts kicking butt. Ofcourse we can't have hulk lone save the day (as much as I'd love it), too many fans would complain, just have the hulk help give the avengers the edge in the battle and end it with them inviting him to join them permenantly, to which he'll reply he just wants to be left alone and leaps off into the distance.

Very remeniscent of classic Avengers.

I personally hope Hulk does save the day single-handidly, as he is the only reason I am looking forward to seeing this movie. Iron Man will have hiw own movies I can see him in as well as Avengers, but for Hulk, Avengers is our next and possibly last chance of seeing him.

 

[Daredevil_2003]

I highly doubt it will be the last...

I would love it too if he single handedly saved the day, him being my favourite hero but I don't see them doing it.
