Yeah, I've been waiting for reactions on that trailer.

What do you think, guys? How's it look?

Not bad. Better than the previous trailer. It still doesn't convince me that it'll be as good as Iron Man or The Dark Knight.

Finally saw it!!!

Pretty awesome stuff! The action looks very close to Hulk Ultimate Destruction video game that had quite a few high remarks about its uproaring action simulator.

This preview has me now more excited for this then for Iron Man...

But for this year I think Dark Knight will take the CSFRITZ award.

Upon a second viewing, I found it really odd that Tim Roth's character didn't break in half, turn to a puddle of blood, or seem to have even broken anything after receiving that kick from the Hulk. Nothing seemed to happen when he landed either. . .hurm? Even so, The Hulk's trailers don't seem as interesting or cool as Iron Man's or The Dark Knight's. . .hopefully it won't disappoint

You know, I think I read something about Blomsky going through some kind of experiment before that fight. A precursor to his Abomination treatment, if you will.

i think the effects still need a little bit more work. but it definetely looks so very way cooler than ang lee's, which I also really appreciated, contrary to the most.

haha yeah i noticed that too! wtf!!
Stupidly related trivia: 'Clerks' was the first DVD to have written on it an anti-smoking message from the PTB...
Probably because the film jokingly criticises the gum companies that profit from people quitting!

So.... has anyone seen this movie yet?

I'll most likely be seeing it tonight - a friend of mine caught a midnight show last night (or should I say 'this morning') and he gave it extremely high praise. Actually, his exact words were 'Dude, the first 10 minutes was better than Ang Lee's Hulk'.

This is good, since the Ang Lee version was garbage.

I'm sure that there are people out there who liked the Ang Lee Disaster, and I don't want to offend anyone's opinion. But I'm a old school Hulk fan. And the one thing I can say about the Hulk is that while his origin may be shrouded in an drama encrusted cocoon, he is not. Allow me to site some examples of his overwhelming badassness:

1) He threw a building at Superman (in the Amalgam crossover).
2) He threw Superman into space, and pretty casually at that.
3) He punched through/shattered Onslaught's armor (Onslaught was a Prof X/Magneto psychic nightmare, and virtually wipes out the Marvel Universe. The Hulk all but sent him packing).
4) He took on the full force of a turbine engine, then grew his own skin back.
5) He moved the Blob, who's whole deal is that he's IMMOVABLE.
6) He punched through a force field generated by X-Man, one of the most powerful marvel characters. Ever.
7) As the Maestro (long story, but a good one - "Future Imperfect"), he kills practically EVERY Marvel villain AND superhero, and keeps various keep sakes of them (Wolverine's skeleton, Cap. America's Shield, Ultron's head, etc, etc.) and then proceeds to rule the world.
8) Three words: World. War. Hulk. Definitely a good pick up. I probably could have used just this as a prime example, but that wouldn't to the Hulk enough justice.

This is but a taste of the rage induced ownage The Hulk as unleashed, some of which wasn't even in his own universe. Apparently the writers felt it necessary that there wasn't enough ass to kick in the Marvel Universe, so from time to time, the DC Universe got a taste of The Hulk.

In any case, it looks like that's what this movie will be - a simple formula. Some comic book science, man on the run, then Hulk. Enjoyment.

I saw it today and a few people laughed when Stan Lee showed up on the screen but most people just kind of looked at us like we were freaks for laughing at a "random extra"

But anyways, it was an awesome movie, I really think Norton did a good job of showing Banner's angst, with out crossing the line to Emoville.

I also liked how they are building up for the Avengers movie, which I hope is awesome

I had heard rumors online of a Captain America Cameo which had been "confirmed" by the director...
SPOILER** SPOILER** **SPOILER** **SPOILER** **SPOILER**
The 'cameo' was Blonsky and General Ross talking about a super soldier from WWII, for like ten seconds, I was let down, but was glad when Robert Downey Jr. walked through the bar door at the end.

I liked it.
