Well, I personally see them as sort of equal overall, but some on this board *cougroundedh* seem to feel otherwise. Was Hulk better? It certainly was more interesting and original. Am I letting a lot slide with SR just 'cause of Brando, and the 'S'? It's quite possible....

Hehe you had to do it didn't ya? ;)
There's plenty of stuff in Hulk that could have done with cutting/changing, but the utterly incoherent plot of SR is what drags it so far down for me.

Hulk was awful. I could barely sit through it. Come on Chris, you know it was terrible. At least there were a handful of crazy Lex scenes in SR. Neither make my top superhero movie list...okay, hero movies don't often work well in general...but Hulk was way worse than SR.

Really, Hulk wasn't as bad as you remember, was it?
If you see it without expectations, it's a different experience.
The poodle was a bit much, though...
Hulk kill doggie! Chrisisall

I did indeed have a few expectations, but not many. I've come to not expect much from superhero movies. They so rarely work out well. You know? The last XMen movie, even BB was hard to watch in spots. Most often it's the director, but I've seen a few bad scripts as well. Maybe I'm jaded. Gah. I don't want to be jaded! I worry about WW. I love WW. I sure hope Joss knows what he is doing...
*runs off to watch Raimi because he has nothing to prove*

Quote:Have you seen the Director's Cuts of Daredevil or Superman 2? Those were good IMO. And Joss is THE PERFECT guy for WW, don't worry on it for a second!

I know I'm in the minority ,but I loved The Hulk.Ang Lee's use of color was amazing .The acting was well done for a superhero movie & I enjoyed the effects. My kids loved it too,.
WW is my alltime favorite superhero & I'm thrilled that Joss ia at the helm.He'll do right by Diana .I have faith.

Okay, you convinced me. I'm actually gonna go out right now and pick me up a copy of it. I only did see it the once, I'm ready to accept the poodle and the extra-large sized green guy now.
EDIT: I got it. Gamma-rays and green skin 2-nite!
