Hulk Hogan
My movie weekend continued today with me finally seeing The Incredible Hulk. While I was actually one of the few people who enjoyed the Ang Lee version, I was excited when I heard they’d be making a “do over” type movie with Edward Norton. Despite the low Tomato Meter scores from “real critics” (a lower overall score than Indy 4? /facepalm), I tend to agree with the real people scores and found the movie to be quite entertaining.
I liked the, previously on the Hulk, style origin recap which gives a bit of a nod to the TV series origin. Finding a way to get Bill Bixby into the movie = win. Norton, as usual, was excellent. The CGI and action sequences were well done (halved-car boxing gloves ftw). And there is no better way to end it than with a cameo by Tony Stark.
I think my only real gripe is that I’ll take the Sam Elliott played, General Ross over the William Hurt one any day.
