Incredible Hulk Fans:
New Listings
& Thoughts On the Upcoming Movie!
Michael's Note: I am reposting Tina's 'Take' on the upcoming movie in conjunction with the new Hulk listings that have been listed this week!
-------------------------
Tina's Note: This is 'My Take' on the upcoming Hulk Movie previewed at the SDCC Comic Con Program on 07-28-07 Saturday From 04:15 pm to 05:00 pm in Hall 'H' At the San Diego Convention Center:
Marvel Productions talked with Comic Con fans about its second production, yet another Incredible Hulk movie. This fan's reaction? Why, oh why?
Nothing that lead actor and writer of the screenplay, Edward Norton, had to say made me feel any better about it!
In fact, it sounds like a disaster in the making. Both Norton and the French Director Louis Leterriere loved the TV series starring Bill Bixby. Much of their inspiration comes from the tv show.
The screenplay is based on the tv series, the Bruce Jones comic book series, and the grey Hulk.
Look for the character of Doc Sampson. Perhaps he's the one who'll be "looking for a cure" for Banner (the focus of the movie).
Norton dodged questions about whether this outing would be the origin story. Origins are hard to set up, blah, blah, blah, the origin will be "spooled out" thoroughout the story. Huh?
Norton terms the emergence of Hulk as "when he pops out." Huh? With the special effects, the actor is apparently "still there" in the scene. Where we're not sure.
The only visual we saw was a treatment of the Hulk looking eerily like Lou Ferrigno.
The gorgeous Liv Tyler seems clueless as Betty Ross. Tim Roth plays The Abomination, and William Hurt is General Ross.
My prediction: strong cast, weak screenplay, a mess of a film.
Please feel free to post your comment on our pop culture - comics - comic books blog post about this upcoming movie or any other comic book movie.
