The Incredible Hulk Seems Incredibly Just All Right
As promised, the Incredible Hulk trailer debuted on MTV last night, and I’m sure I’m not alone when I say…enh. While I was mildly confused to see Tim Roth holding a sniper rifle (I thought he was a rival scientist) and vaguely concerned about the zen/yoga pose Norton gets in, I was somewhat gratified to see Ed Norton tossed out of a helicopter?a nod to the Ultimates, where people do terrible things to Bruce Banner in order to bring out the Hulk when ass-kicking needs to happen. Overall, it seems okay, but I imagine Iron Man is going to hand it its incredible green ass.
