#33Hulk I love this movie. Yeah, Hulk's dad being the main villain wasn't all that exciting, but the cast in this was simply great; not a dud in the entire bunch.

I like this movie....loved it at first but I see the flaws now. But my friends outright hate it and they make fun of me for liking it...but you're still the weirdo.

It does have it's problem, but it's still good. Agreed. And even with the stuff that's not so good, there's some silver lining. Like those Hulk-dogs; on the whole they're kinda lame, but the way one of them dies was pretty awesome.

#32Fantastic Four I'm not a fan of the comics, but I enjoy the films. And I don't think Alba is as bad as people say, even if she isn't what I would have imagined for a real life Sue Storm.

Like those Hulk-dogs; on the whole they're kinda lame, but the way one of them dies was pretty awesome. Yeah, "The Incredible Hulk" had a much better villain with The Abomination. But, "The Hulk" was well shot, delved a lot into the themes of dual personality and anger issues of the comic. And, it had a good cast. In fact, I thought Sam Elliot made a better Gen. Ross than William Hurt.

The way I see it, the 2003 movie presented a better psychological movie that really caught Hulk's inner struggles, while the 2008 movie presented a better action flick that made Hulk seem like an awesome super-hero. And yeah, the casting choices for the 2003 film were better across the board. It's not that I dislike the ones in the 2008 movie, but picks like Bana and Elliot just seemed perfect.

Actually, I preferred Edward Norton as Dr. Banner than Eric Bana. And, for Betty, I thought that both Liv Tyler and Jennifer Connelly were good. However, Elliot is just perfect casting for Ross. You need a guy who yells and gets mad a lot, and Elliot can do that well. It's not that Hurt isn't a bad actor; hell, he's one of the best. But, he's better at low-key, subtle performances. And, Nick Nolte playing a crazy man. That was the best casting decision of that year.

I thought Hulk was lame, though I did enjoy when he rolled down that sand hill, I laughed.

Yeah, most people didn't like "The Hulk." The reason is that a lot of people expected a movie where a big green monster who goes around smashing things. Instead director Ang Lee and screenwriter James Schamus delivered a brooding, cerebral exploration of the plight of an existential nowhere man.
It's driven by two seemingly antithetical concepts: Lee set out to make a live-action issue of The Incredible Hulk that borrowed heavily from the visual vocabulary of comic books, so he's divided the frame into panel-like segments via split screens and employing all manner of cartoonish transitions. Secondly, Lee set out to elevate the plight of a humble scientist/giant green brute to the level of a Greek tragedy. He delivered a comic book movie for folks whose idea of comic books involves Daniel Clowes, Chris Ware, and maybe some Art Spiegelman thrown in for variety. Lee turned in the rare comic-book movie whose core audience is New Yorker subscribers rather than acne-ridden teenagers.
So, basically, in the movie-going public's eyes, Ang Lee screwed up a perfectly good smash-em-up comic book monster movie with his infernal "art" and "ideas."

That's why I really like both Hulk movies; they both offer me something different, and each does great at what its trying to offer.
