Ang Lee's Hulk is heavily and tragically underrated. Lee is the only director to even begin to capture the psychological ramifications of what it means to be caught in a whirlwind of rage and destruction. He captured Bruce and the Hulk's torment as well as their anger.
Whedon's take is fun but ultimately shallow. The 2008 film made him seem more hateful and mean than angry to me.

It's a great movie, no idea why so many seem to dislike it. It's slow, that's true, but the Hulk story is easily the more tragic story of Marvel, or rather, it's easier to turn it into a viable tragedy. And Ang Lee did a good job of that. This, plus some interesting and creative cinematography. |

I feel it depends on the franchise. In the case of the MCU, where keeping a tight continuity is one of their goals, any continuity issues they do have naturally become more noticeable. Ah yes, the age old hypocrisy it's ok for the franchise I like but not for the franchise I don't like. No, I said "different standards for different franchises". God, you'll just pick a fight with me over anything. Fine, I won't play nice. I'll remember to take the next innocuous thing you say in the worst way possible, too. |

I made a completely innocent comment saying that different franchises might be held to different standards depending on what they're is aiming for. In the case of the MCU, a tight continuity IS one of their aims. Somehow suggesting that a franchise be held up to the standards it wants to profess is somehow hypocrisy on my part. So there is only one conclusion: TheJerk's existence upon this planet is the #1 argument in favor of the continued legalization of abortions. |

It's amazing how often trolls like you and Dennis are blind go the fact you're just proving my point for me. |

If you simply disagree with me, you'd have said "I disagree" instead of throwing an underhanded insult at me. So just keep proving me point, you worthless, pointless person. |

If you simply disagree with me, you'd have said "I disagree" instead of throwing an underhanded insult at me. So just keep proving me point, you worthless, pointless person. First of all you responded to me first with your rationalisation that some how the production company standards are somehow relevant to my point or this thread. My point was about individual audience perception. The standards of the company behind the product are irrelevant to me and should be to most audience members. It's the movies and our personal enjoyment of them that matters. Second, I do consider your point hypocritical. And I called you out on it. You got made, threatened me then called me a troll because I don't agree with you and laughed at you. Who is the one looking for a fight here? |

This what happens you do enough crystal meth to think Suicide Squad was a good movie, people. Don't let it happen to you, too. Fine, I'll never present an opposing viewpoint every again, since you're obviously unable to handle having one brought up to you. You must live a very sheltered existence, you precious little fragile snowflake. No, my point isn't hypocritical. You don't even know the meaning of the word. You're the one looking for a fight. You decided to be rude instead of simply stating your disagreement. |

You may find what I said insulting but I didn't use any insults. Keep throwing them my way though, you're not making yourself look any more righteous. Only childish. |
