I haven't seen one great story in a Superhero comicbook movie. JMHO

 

[ironwez20]

wellllllll i guess im going to say that im not super sik about the tdk as i am the hulk , because really they havent showed me anything that really impresses me i mean the only action they show is bats riding on a freakin batpod and weve seen batman strolling thru gotham in a vehicle, show me a joker/batman fighting scene danggit i want to see a cgi moment, and dont forget spidey 3 that had many flaws.

 

[Asgard]

I think the only thing that would have made the clip better would be for the Hulk to lift one of Abom's legs and ram whatever was left of the car into his ass. That way, the raping would be literal as well.

Sin City and Batman Begins were pretty GREAT. The Crow was good and so was History of violence.

 

[WildChild]

Yeah, thats the greatest clip i 've ever seen.I was looking forward to a 25 minute fight scene but if I get 15 minutes of that plus those other action scene's . I cannot complain at all.Someone mentioned hulk's strength growing with his rage and looking weak in this clip.This is the start of the fight I truly hope over the course of the fight abom makes him madder ultimately leading the Hulk to surpass him in strength.

I hated The Crow, disagree on BB and Sin City and Violence weren't Superhero comicbook movies and even if they were I still don't think that they had great storylines. As a matter of fact I dug Violence but feel that it's overrated.

I'm just going to be straight up, we obviously don't like the same kinda of comicbook films so I don't think it is a good to talk you about the subject, it will just start arguements. I'm not insane, I don't only talk to folk who like the Spider-Man films but I do have to have some common ground and so far I haven't seen it.

Well she did specifically say Superhero Comic Book movie so with that said...I have to agree.

Although, personally, Guillermo Del Toro's Blade II and Hellboy are as close as it gets. Batman Begins was pretty much a generic action movie but with Batman in it and...very little comprehensible action. Thank god for DVDs and repeat viewings, huh?

Begins had a very good story and message on conquering inner fears and if u are into the power of philosophy and the mind then u will acknowledge that.

BB was great as you can see they really studied the Tao art of the mind to have soo many of it's philosophies driving the ideas.

What do you see as a GREAT storyline?? and we'll see if the argument is even relevant

 

[I SEE SPIDEY]

I guess lol. I just think among other things that Brandon Lee was a terrible actor...and I'm going to stop it right there because you obviously liked the film and I don't want to get into it right now. It would be fun to someday but I'm tired. You boys are keeping me up way too late, I've got to get to bed.

Brandon Lee was a terrible actor???? What movie did YOU watch????



your just trying to get a rise and for a moment you did. Good work...you lost me on the Brandon Lee biz and not knowing that History of violence and Sin City were Comic book adaptations.

Really? It looked like your basic comic book movie to me. Tragic origin, become hero, villain shows up coincidentally at the same time with complicated domination scheme involving wacky device. Throw in the random love interest (they even went as far as making up a character just because they felt Batman NEEDED a Mary Jane so badly) and the whole thing just felt pretty formulaic for me...And it's one of my favorite comic book movies. But greatness?

Greatness would be telling something original. Greatness would be telling that story well and involving a complicated web of relationships. It's why Blade II and Hellboy are two of my favorite comic book movies. I just loved how the characters interacted with each other. With Batman Begins we were pretty much following Bruce Wayne around like a 3rd person video game encountering person after person and taking what he needs. I didn't even feel his connection with Alfred that much and the Rachel Dawes relationship felt forced.

That's just one aspect though. The score, the characters, the actors, the chemistry, it all has to fit together like a perfect puzzle and Batman Begins didn't do that for me. I like the movie out of sheer bias and if I wasn't a Batman fan I'd probably have the same response to it as my friends and family which is "It's alright."

Wow was that longer than expected. Let's get back on topic quickly here before a mod shows.

haha It's okay. We're all entitled to our opinions. Have a good night.

Sin City and A History of Violence are not Superhero comicbook movies, period. They are based on comicbooks or graphic novels but they don't involve a Superhero or anything resembling one.

Marv was Superhuman...and he was a HERO

Your opinion of BB doesn't hold to majority of the deep movie goers I know of and have seen reviews on. It's ur opinion I guess. I took a lot from it.

Iron man is as generic as it gets along with the Spiderman series.

ANyway though Hulk won't even level up to the likes of Spiderman 3

Seems too comicbooky which is the reason I loved Ang's for not having that. The only prob with Ang's Hulk was anything after the city shrinking scene and the dog fight

 

[Sava]

there were superheros in Sin City?...

 

[ironwez20]

no just some guy in bandages that couldnt be stoped and some other stuff, so any way you guys pumped or what

 

[Sava]

so, back to the clip, anyone find any downloadable links yet?

 

[Xclaim]

All this talk about the CGI is giving me a ****ing headache.

As far as live-action renditions go, both Hulk and Abomination look great, or as good as they can possibly get in a movie. Seriously, I cannot for the life of me find anything about the special effects in this movie that makes it any worse or better than the thousands of other CGI-heavy movies out there, and that includes anything ILM has done (that's right, I went there) After awhile they all look pretty much the same anyways so when it comes right down to it, who the hell cares?!

All I know is when I saw Hulk rip that cop car in half and then LITERALY pound Abomination into the ground, my jaw hit the freaking floor. Everything I thought was missing in the first Hulk movie crammed into a 40-second clip.

So in the long run do you guys think this movie will be remembered for it's action, casting, and rumored "links" to other Marvel movies, or for how its CGI stacked up to so many other popcorn movies out there?

Give it a rest, already.

And your point is...what? All I'm hearing is blah, blah, blah. And...maybe I'm having amnesia or something...but when does a city shrink in Ang Lee's Hulk?

 

[dark_b]

dont even dare to watch this video on youtube. if you dont watch htis on HD then dont even bother. its amazing.

please god give me now a superman fight.

 

[Sarg92]

This is to everyone who wants to download any Quicktime clip to their PC.

1. Click the clip you want to watch (if you want the street fight in 1080p then click it at Yahoo Movies)
2. Just leave the Quicktime player for a while, let it load the entire clip
3. Once it is loaded click "File" then "Save As" and choose a folder to save it in to your PC
4. Done! You now have it on your PC!



And just to make it clear to everyone, the final fight is not 26 minutes. Leterrier said he was misquoted and the final act is 26 minutes with the battle being around 10-15 minutes. He says it is still a lengthy battle but a 26 minute battle would get kind of boring as their is only so much you can do with two monsters.

Or you could just right click the "480p", "720p or "1080p" link and choose "Save as".
