Yeah, it's arrived, fanboys and girls: Redemption. Louis Leterrier and Ed Norton have come to redeem Marvel at the movie house with their reinterpretation of the Hulk myth with The Incredible Hulk, a movie that pretends Ang Lee was never given $150 million to blow on an art film.
I liked his Hulk to be perfectly honest. I thought it got a little long in the end and the climax a) made little sense and b) was barely comprehensible. Overall the effects were cool, the Hulk looked awesome, the desert scene was fantastic and I thought Eric Bana did a great job. Its just that the bads overran the goods, namely Nick Nolte's weird ass and the fact that the film felt like some Louis Malle might've made about his childhood, just with The Hulk thrown in.
Sam Elliot still owned as Gen. Ross.
Anyhow, there's a new trailer for the new one, which features super-cute Liv Tyler filling in for Jennifer Connelly, Tim Roth as the man who becomes The Abomination, and Ed Norton killin' em as Bruce Banner. He also completely re-wrote Zak "I'm responsible for Elektra and X-Men: The Last Stand" Penn's script and is currently fighting Marvel Films and the director for even more control over the final product.
Hey, it worked on every other movie he's ever made.
I think the movie overall will be better, but I kinda prefer the way the actual Hulk looked in Ang's version. The helicopter thing from The Ultimates does rule, however, and I think I'll grow to like the CGI alterations better when I see the final cut.
