Wheat Loaf posted:I wonder what the fate of the Inhumans - as a concept - within the MCU will be. They could maybe unify the two ideas and have them as basically two related groups of people with superpowers that are being manipulated to fight each other? Might be a way to develop a storyline for the MCU Xmen that isn't retreading the old Mutant Rights stuff. They can fight a bit, eventually realise they are basically the same, then boom, have an unified team out of whoever is most popular/survives. They *are* still aiming to do Ms Marvel, so they do need a solution there... Fangz fucked around with this message at 14:19 on Nov 16, 2018 |

I vastly prefer Ruffalo’s Banner/Hulk. Norton played Banner with manic/jittery intensity, but Ruffalo is no less intense, it’s just that in The Avengers his is a Banner who’s stopped fighting. He’s beyond suicidal. He’s completely resigned to his fate, so it’s not a matter of if he’s going to turn into the Hulk, it’s just a matter of when and where. By the time Age of Ultron rolls around, you are starting to see some of that manic energy, because Banner’s actually found hope again, and he’s desperately terrified of losing it again. Then you’ve got Ragnarok, where we’re starting to actually see the Hulk as a character rather than a barely contained force of nature, and Banner is confused and frightened because now he has to contend with this new idea that not only does he have to worry about turning into the Hulk, there’s now the further worry that Hulk is becoming a fully realized person in his own right, and is in danger of usurping Banner completely. All of this is forms a great, nuanced character arc that Ruffalo plays with subtlety, pathos, and humour.

Ruffalo sold me with Avengers. He is always jittery and clearly trying to keep a facade, there's the That's My Secret line but right in his first scene with Natasha you can see he is on a very thin line and trying to keep walking straight Also an incredibly charming man.

The thing I find funny is that I watched all of Inhumans, but could not finish Krypton. Inhumans was a car fire I couldn't stop looking at, Krypton was just so boring.

I can see how you would be annoyed at people missing that since it does seem fairly obvious. But at the same time wouldn't you be thrilled that those people would see a victory by the heroes as really surprising? But the first point, it never crossed my mind. I just assumed that Thanos beat the Hulk so bad he ran off to hide in a corner of Banners mind. One little detail I don't know if they commented on was I thought Thor deliberately waited until Thanos had the six gem before attacking him. Because he saw that every time Thanos gained another gem he dropped his guard and was momentarily overcome with new power/senses. Kind of like how he thought that would be his best shot.

Hulk can't let Banner be killed, though, so at some point when Banner's going to punch a weird alien and fail miserably he HAS to come back. Maybe that's what they mean?

Banner couldn't kill himself because Hulk wouldn't let him. Maybe Hulk wants to die now.

I wonder how far they're gonna let Hulk go. If he's capable of intelligent, independent thought and has his own personality...is it fair for Banner to keep him suppressed? They need a magic science device to split them apart.

The main problems with Incredible Hulk are that Liv Tyler is horrible in it and the Hulk's design is just hideous. Like he's got all these wrinkles and splotches, I hate looking at him. I also would've liked to see the version of the film Norton wanted to make, which had more focus on Banner's inner struggles and cold opened on a suicide attempt, but I totally understand why Marvel didn't want to do that for their cinematic universe movie.Cythereal posted:In the interview, the Russos were kind of annoyed that this was what almost everyone thought.

I'll go to bat for Incredible Hulk. I've seen it a few times and honestly can't come up with too many negatives. It did a nice job of sort of extending the themes of the TV show, I liked the effects and I thought all of the performances were fine. Norton, Elliot and Roth were great, as usual, and the film explored some interesting subplots that, unfortunately, were never followed up on in the MCU. It's no masterpiece but I really don't get everyone's problem with it. I'd rank it above Thor 1 and 2, Iron Man 2 and 3, AoU and put it on a par with things like Ant Man and Avengers. It's a solid film.

I liked the fight with Abomination because we got car boxing gloves in a movie. I will also love that Hulk, the embodiment of unbridled destruction, didn't kill Blonsky. I mean, he tried really loving hard to in the previous fight, but nevermind that. I loving love how the goddamned Hulk is the only Avenger (first formation) to have not killed someone.
