Future of Hulk Franchise Uncertain

[Joker]

I know Marvel doesn't get all of the money, that's common knowledge. But, they should get a good enough percentage to want a sequel. It's their own faults that they didn't market & promote the movie as they should've done.

Also it could be that he is slightly less popular than other mainstream heroes, but I dunno Iron Man did well, so...

[Joker]

It's not about his popularity, because he's hella popular. Marvel didn't do well convincing people to go see this movie. Ang's movie left a bad taste in people's mouth & Marvel didn't own up to trying to get people to see this once, hence why it didn't make Iron Man numbers.

I guess so, it's just some movies do better than to hers as well I guess. B-Movies don't help much either though.

The box office doesn't mean the movie was bad, just that they didn't do their jobs of promoting the movie. This movie is right up there in the best category (in my top five to be exact), but Marvel didn't promote it enough.

I only saw a preview of it at the Iron Man movie.

[Joker]

You really should go see the movie.

I probably will this week.

[Joker]

You've been saying that for weeks.

It's only been one week hasn't it?

[Joker]

I dunno...but yes, go see this, it's an amazing film, Marvel's best to date.

I would rank it top 5.

Damn! Better than Iron Man?

[Joker]

Hell yeah. Iron Man was good, but TIH was better.

And I was thinking about something someone said on a forum and I want to ask you guys, does the new Abomination look like a cross between the Hulk & Godzilla?

[brucewayne]

I liked Norton's Hulk more than I liked Ang Lee's version. It seems that this Hulk will make maybe the same as Lee's Hulk. I've often thought that maybe when doing a Hulk film have a bodybuilder or wrestler. Or perhaps cgi the Hulk better

That beast reminds me of something else, but I just can't put my finger on it.

That would make sense, didn't a bodybuilder do the 70's Hulk show? Lou Ferringo I believe?

Yes, that was Lou Ferrigno as the Hulk, the late Bill Bixby played Dr. David Banner.

I didn't remember all of that, just the Lou Ferringo part. I may have caught a glimpse of the show, I think I read about him doing that part in the Book of World Records, or something.

Is it "gno" or "ngo" in his last name?

[Joker]

I don't think they need to use a real person for the live action movies, it wouldn't bold well.

And physically, the new Abomination does seem like a Godzilla/Hulk hybrid.

"gno"

[Joker]

He was an awesome Hulk, but the days of a real man portraying the Hulk are long gone.

[violent2dope]

I would be more concerned about the future of the Hulk comics if I were you guys what with the shit that is going down in Red Hulk lol...

He reminds me of some zombie monster or something.

Ah, so you had it spelt right, it makes sense now that I think about it.

Are you fine with Red Hulk beating the crap out of Uatu the Watcher and beating down Odinforce Thor with Mjonir(yes, Rulk beat down Thor with his own hammer, hell he even used lightning and flew with it!)?

Sure why not, he is Red Hulk after all.

[Joker]

Red Hulk is much too overpowered, and the fact that a Watcher would let him punch him shows the sheer absurdness of the story. Not to mention he beat the savage Hulk but breaking his arm and holding him until he passed out, something which should've caused him to get angry and grow stronger. Loeb sucks.
