I hate the Spiderman and Superman Movies. I only watched the recent Batman movies becuase Ive always loved Batman. I love Burton by the way.
I hated Lee’s Hulk. The only reason I watched Leterrier’s Hulk was because Ive always loved Norton.
Im not a comic book fan or an action movie fan, I was unimpressed with Transformer’s but surprisingly this movie is kind of good.

I would put group it together with Die Hard 4.

Or Munich…or Troy even! He was one of the few who bothered with any acting in that movie.

okay to Frank at the top, Eric Bana sucks at acting but it’s nothing compared to Lee’s directing which sucks even more. That first Hulk is, besides the Village (M. Night Shamalon), the worst movie EVER!!

IN addition, Norton does not have a “big ego” as you say. and plus he is really hot . so HAHAHA take that.

I thought the Hulk was great… sure, once it descended into a CGI brawl it was crap, but at least there was proportionately little of that stuff overall.

I loved the old Hulk TV series and this film had major hat-tips to it, so maybe that’s why I felt it was 100 times better than Iron Man.

It seems like there are a lot of people on this forum that are over critical of Ed Norton’s work. I can list quite a few movies that he’s produced since American History X and Fight Club that he did an excellent job in( Frida, Red Dragon, The Illusionist, Kingdom of Heaven). Also, actors are artists in their own right and they should be afforded the right to choose what is right for them , and not have audiences dictate their role choices. I happened to catch the Hulk flick this morning and I thought they did a pretty good job. I did liked Banna as well, but this movie proved to be more true to the books. Ed Norton resembled Bruce Banner far more in build as well as features and his intellect was believable. The previous film was good up to a point and then they completely warped the story line(which made me angry). I love the duality of the hulk character and the conflict over his psyche, but in all honesty I believe that Iron Man was by far the most successfully executed film of the Marvel Franchise.

[...] thought this film was a bad idea when I first heard about it. Nothing I have seen has changed my mind. I’ve seen their Hulk, I’ve seen their [...]

Norton is the perfect choice for this film, b/c he’s invested in the fundamental conflict of the character. Fight Club is all the prerequisite necessary, but yes, recently the Illusionist was pretty remarkable film that held its own against the oddly similar-timed film, the Prestige.

A writer/actor flexing his muscles is not what most studios want- agreed, but I think in the end we’ll get a very pleasing, character driven movie that delivers what audiences are hoping for.

Bana looked too much like a bigger Corey Haim when he got angry for me to invest in him as a character. Banner’s not supposed to whine himself into becoming the hulk.

I think this movie will have much more crossover potential than Ang’s, which was a fine film, but this one addresses the mis-marketing of the first one as an action film (which it most certainly was not), as well as the fact that many, many people are more aware of the Hulk from the 70’s TV show, which did a great service in fleshing out a believable character driven narrative.

And if the girls like Ed Norton - I’m all for it. I don’t need any more proof than their own testimony. (to me, asking for evidence sounds like a silly Polish dude asking a model who’s offering to go out on the town w/ him if she likes video games. Can someone say “Deal Breaker”?)

Can you give some examples Joanna? He was great in Fight Club and American History X, good in The Score, but what’s he done for us lately?
