03 hulk was 12 feet tall, that rock was no more than 18 feet tall and 6 ft wide. you are seriously over exaggerating. 03 hulk threw a tank at a pile of sand, 08 threw gigantic rock at god. 03 hulk broke out of some containment foam, 08 pushed through a sonic emitting gun. 03 hulk sounded like some guy tubbing his toe when he screamed 08 actually sounded mad. 03 looks like a baby on roids, 08 looks like the hulk. 08 overall was a good movie compared to 03. that in itself is th greatest strength of all. therefor 08 is stonger

HAHAH!up:

But "gigantic rock?" It was like half his size. Now who's exaggerating? The rock HULK 03 picked up was much taller than himself. He didn't throw it very far though. I always thought it was pretty cool though how he had to smash his fingers into it to hold it.

But again, HULK 08 was MUCH better than HULK 03. Seeing it again tomorrow.

 

[DACMAN]

lol, you're alright with me

Thanks..."You're a Hall-of-Famer in my book, Coach"

Get a fricken room guys.

 

[Midnight Black]

You're in it....lol.

haha....we did kinda get chick-flickish right there. But I'm secure in my man hood, so it ain't no thang.

You only have to compare what they do and the effect they have on the physical objects around them.

The most obvious feat of strength is that 03 Hulk threw a massive tank, leverage or not, and that's a hell of a feat. All this talk about "he had a running start" is absurd. You try throwing something proportionate to your weight like that, running start or leverage or no. You can't just spin around and suddenly be able to throw something seven times heavier than you can generally throw regardless. That isn't how it works.

Look at when he threw the gamma sphere. Look how FAR he threw it, in an awkward pose.

Broke a Hulk dog's mouth with his shoulder muscle.

Brought down a tree.

He broke out of the high tech tank thing as opposed to a medical bed.

He survived the explosion that Talbot apparently did not.

He could jump MUCH farther.

He survived an MIRV attack.

He batted away missles like they were nothing.

He was faster, which would tend to indicate more strength.

He fell from space and survived.

Toward the end of the 2003 movie, Hulk was able to "bring down" a chopper and a jet plane simply by jumping on them (This Hulk went along for the ride on the chopper and The Abomination was with him)

He picked up a big ass rock formation, and he fought a lightning creature, and then a massive element cloud, and won. Oh, and he survived a nuclear blast.

This version of The Hulk did battle Abomination, but so what? The Abomination was strong, but obviously no stronger than this version of The Hulk, so he can't be THAT strong.

Hell, even 2003 Bruce Banner, when he was beginning to transform and was still in human form, was much stronger than Norton's Banner was. Remember when he tossed Talbot across the room?

This is what I don't get when people whine about the action in 2003. In many ways, it was more impressive than what happened in THE INCREDIBLE HULK. It just wasn't as violent. 2003 Hulk was clearly stronger, and he found himselfs in situations that required more strength than 2008 Hulk did.

You all can pretend what you want to believe. But Hulk was shown doing more impressive feats of strength in HULK than in THE INCREDIBLE HULK.

 

[Midnight Black]

I dig where you are coming from...especially reminding me about snapping the dog's jaw with his shoulder muscle. That IS very impressive. I don't think we will ever see 08 do that [director's choice].

O3 is obviously stronger, heck surviving a nuclear blast, that takes the cake forget forklifts and tanks.

BUT 08 is a THE Hulk in a perfect embodiment. Should've grown a foot or two and that is my 100th time saying that and I will not let that up point up.

uhhh, yes it does

and the parts about bringing down a plane and choppers, is because of his weight, not his strength

and about the Gamma Sphere he threw it about how far a human would throw a bowling ball one handedly, he didnt throw it that far.

and about the explosion... that was like a grenade to the Hulk in '03, so obviously..he survived... in Hulk '08 he managed to break his way through a Sound Wave cannon or whatever they are called. And he landed on it with his fist and obliterated it

 

[The Guard]

Fair enough.

Let's say, for the sake of argument, that you can generally throw a 200 pound weight standing still, or with minimal effort. Now run at it, pick it up, spin around and lets see you throw a 1200 pound weight ten, twenty, thirty times or more further than you can throw that 200 pound weight.

Go ahead, I'm waiting.

I also fail to see how a 15 foot tall being weighs THAT much more than a 12 foot tall one. And isn't weight and the application of one's weight generally related to strength?

 

[TNC9852002]

This isn't really a fair comparison. In movie!verse, 2003 is stronger attributed to a different set of attainable physical attributes, weight, and height. In comic!verse, Hulk has no real limits. If you ask me, honestly, I still think that 2008's Hulk would've been capable of the feats of strengths performed by 2003's.

This is like saying, "In an episode of 'King of Queens', I saw Leah Remini lift a chair, but in the same episode, Lou Ferrigno never lifted a chair, so, obviously, Leah is stronger than Lou. Leah had greater feats of strength, so Leah is stronger."

Um.
Yeah.
Hey, good luck with that.

 

[The Guard]

It's simple physics. 2003 Hulk is shown performing far more physically impressive feats than 2008 Hulk. Those are the facts. Therefore, based on the facts, the 2003 Hulk was stronger. What the hell else would you base a comparison on? Theory? If you don't want to accept the facts provided, you cannot begin to make any kind of accurate comparison.

You could at least succumb to the "missile" one as you know... Abomination catches a missile bashes it against his head and just laughs.... and Hulk kicks his boney butt.

I could get into explanations for others as well, but... I just don't care to, in to bad a mood to individually quote and discuss each point.

Though you do have a point with the shoulder muscle.

im not sure about you, but im not some 20 ft. green superhero guy who has superhuman strength

so picking up a 1200 lb. object wouldnt really make sense at all now would it

and since ur just getting to the fact about swinging it, swinging before releasing builds up momentum and force, then when u release it, it goes much farther than it would when you would when you would just throw it using two hands underneath the thing.

 

[FrostBite]

Nor does our strength increase like his.

Just worth noting that this is a pretty ridiculous debate seeing as both Hulks get stronger, and therefor are technically "limitless" in strength.

God I hope we don't see him lift a mountain though.

 

[Midnight Black]

Some valid points here, but if we were talking about who is more invulnerable I would give it to 03.

08 a better film, but 03 a tougher dude. [Tougher as in durability]

AND whoever is dispelling the logic of swinging and item and just tossing an item. Grab a back pack fill it up with books [duh..what else] and try tossing it from a standing position and then try spinning thrice and letting go.

I DO think that tossing a tank is more impressive since it is heavier, but it is easier to toss things in general (all things being equal) when momentum and the mass of the object are already in motion.

LAWS OF PHYSICS!!!

That's a good point. They are both the HULK, so they both have unlimited strength.

Which is why I would want to see him lift a mountain. Only the HULK could do something like that. That's like saying I hope I never see the Flash run faster than the speed of sound. It's what he does. The Flash is faster than anyone, the HULK is stronger than anyone.

But again guys, we are simply comparing feats of strength in each movie. And we can only go on what was given to us. And even though I liked TIH MUCH more than the 03 one, you have to admit the 03 one did much more impressive things.

and btw, are you going to name your son Bruce?

You guys are so caught up with the fact the HULK swung the tank that you are forgetting that he first had to tip it over with one arm first.

 

[DACMAN]

No. I tried, but the wifey wouldn't have it. I actually suggest HULK as a middle name, she wouldn't have that even more. So we are naming him after my father (which is actually my first name too.) But his room is going to be all Spider-Man and HULK.

lol, nice try though

 

[Midnight Black]

Yeah...when it comes to names the women make all the final decisions, unfortunately. I have a son who is 6 now named Xavier.

His room is decked out in Spider-man everything.

Congrats!

What the hell else would you base a comparison on? Theory? If you don't want to accept the facts provided, you cannot begin to make any kind of accurate comparison.

So a 5-year old shown lifting his bike compared to a video of Arnold Schwarzenegger sleeping means that the 5-year old is stronger? It's a FACT that the 5-year old was shown performing a feat far more impressive than...sleeping...so, that can only mean that the 5-year old has to be stronger than Arnold.

Great logic!

I know a few women that use similar logic during arguments!

 

[ArtTeacher]

Hey, believe what you want.

I'm just showing what you stated.
