THIS MOVIE IS AWESOME. I wanna go rip a car in half and beat someone to death with it. Seriously. Go see this movie.
I'm really happy to hear some fellow Clutchfans think this movie is really good. I'm looking more forward to watching it now.
no the secret clip is at the end of the movie instead of after the credits. but yeah you will all like it! it was sick
I never followed Hulk. How closely does the movie follow the origin? And what little nuances are there that only Hulk fans would get? I am not referring to homages to the old TV show or anything. I am talking about the comic.
Spoiler I haven't seen the movie yet, but I have read online that there are two characters from the Hulk/Marvel Universe that make an appearance: The Leader (villian) and Doc Samson (superhero). They're both reportedly going to be in the Hulk sequel.
I def can vouch for the 1st part of what you said. Thanks for the info I appreciate it. I have a specific question, huge spoiler (possibly?) so be careful Spoiler at the end when he is meditating and unlocks the "Hulk" what did that signify? I remember sometime in the books there was a smart Hulk. Is that it? Or did Banner just learn how to switch it on/off? Whats the significance?
Spoiler It means that he was training himself to control his power and change at will. The entire story goes from him treating the power as a curse (that he wants cured) to something that he realizes he can aim to use for good. Easter eggs Spoiler Connected to Comics: Purple pants Mr. Blue, aka, Samuel Sterns is also known as The Leader, a well known hulk villain. Logo on super soldier serum says "Vita-Ray." Vita Rays are one of the things they zapped Captain America after injecting the serum that made the serum work. Rainy cave scene is straight from Hulk: Grey, by Jeph Loeb Super Soldier Serum is blue, in reference to Captain America General Ross says something about putting the super soldier program on ice...captain america was frozen in ice during WWII.

Stark logo on weapons Stark logo on Super Soldier serum canister Tony Stark cameo That's all I can remember.
nyquil, where was Sampson? I expected that, but must have missed it. The whole Mr.Blue/Mr.Green was directly from a story arc in the comics (one of the few times I've read Hulk comics, unfortunately), so I thought that was well done. The final battle scene was pretty great. Overall, a fun movie. Felt very much that the filmmakers actually tried to give this the feel of a Hulk comic/story.
Yea I didn't watch the first film hearing how it was boring...but this one had lots of action and enough plot to keep you interested the whole way! One of the movies you would want to own using your home theater system!
that was a good movie... i'd take iron man first but this was pretty close and much better then the previews led me to think it'd be.
