THE INCREDIBLE HULK - Jun 14, 2008 - 03:46pm
"She says Louis was referring to the SS serum when he said Captain America." I'll believe her version of the story once I see the Arctic scene for myself.

Was This Hulk Really Necessary? - Jun 14, 2008 - 08:41am
"I think the real question here is: "Was This Article Really Necessary?" I agree. No matter how you slice it, you're talking about a 10' tall green goliath... it's a fictional character. The point is to suspend your disbelief and just accept it for what it is. Otherwise, what's the point of even writing for a site that is mostly about genre entertainment!? "Who wants to go to the movie and see a "cerebral" interpretation of the hulk." Umm, fyi, the writers who have been most heralded for their work on the Hulk over the years balanced both the "Hulk Smash" and the cerebral. Some of the best writing ever has been when they get into the Hulk's head. And yes, I did enjoy Ang Lee's Hulk in part because he tried something that was cerebral, knowing the potential of the character. But imo what brought the movie down what the crap with Banner's father... that just didn't work at all. And while I was wondering if I would be disappointed with Incredible Hulk, I went to see it last night and I very much enjoyed it as well. It's still flawed, but that's ok. Yes, it's better than Lee's Hulk, but they are both different takes on the same character - much like there have been many iterations of the Hulk over the years (gray, green; smart, dumb). And both films can both be enjoyed for how they go about it, regardless of whether each film fully succeeds.

The title will be Shazam because Marvel has the rights to the title Captain Marvel. Just like Marvel last year had to change one of their titles to The Order because they lost the rights to the previous title (can't recall what it was off the top of my head). A 300 prequel? Huh? I loved 300, but a prequel doesn't make sense, unless Frank Miller is just desperate to cash in. As for the Avengers lineup, Favreau simply confirmed what we knew all along based on the movies Marvel was already planning on making. I don't even see how this qualifies as a rumor.
