But the CGI shots I saw at the trailer just didn't give me a good feeling.

What trailer are you referring to? The one I saw attached to The Matrix Reloaded had my saw nearly on the floor. I wasn't impressed with the first views (i.e. Super Bowl trailer), but once learning that Ang Lee had camped out at ILM to ensure the Hulked looked "real" (come on, it's a comic book), seeing the trailer, and knowing the talent of the stars in the movie, I am now looking forward to seeing this one play out on the big screen.

Just my three cents. :D

Yeah, I'm referring to the trailer at the Matrix Reloaded. They were not BAD CGI, but some of the shots didn't look quite right to me. But maybe I was just all jittery with anticipation about seeing Carrie Ann Moss in tight leather again. :p Regardless, I'm probably going to see it on the big screen.

Ok First of all, the movie trailer claims the main character is the "Greatest" adventurer ever. I think it is very well established that Indiana Jones is the greatest adventurer. How dare they say that?

Because Alan Quatermain is the original Indiana Jones. And I would really like to know, just who established Indiana Jones as the greatest? But back to the subject at hand, I think Hulk will do just fine at the box office, though I don't think it will put up Spiderman numbers.




I think that because of spiderman's success, people will go see the hul k thinking that it's goign to get just as good if not better, i'm a big comic book fan, so seeing even bad sucperhero movies is better than nothing. The hulk looks really well animated from the 5 second dtrailor that I saw. Sorry for the typo's i'm not at my home keyboard

I think that if daredevil did pretty good at the box office, hulk will do much better because it's a much better more popular super hero, I mean come on, a blind superhero, lol. I think that DBZ movies will make more than any other movie but well they aren't making that any time soon. I want intense battles like stuff getting smashed, people flying into walls and getting up like nothing and continuing to fight, tht's what people want a good fighting scene like that, not those garbagy coereographed fighting scenes. CGI is the only way to do what people want, and hat scene where hulk flexes his muscles was awesome

yup, hardest thing to do is face and muscles not hidden by clothing. i'm not talking super deformed face like gollum either where you can get away with murder. close you get to truely human, the more any little thing will bug you. hulks gotta be damned hard to do. spidey had it easy, face mask and all.
