Advance report on final HULK theatrical trailer

Hey folks, Harry here... I can't wait for the HULK to hit... Mainly so I can see black feathers in naysayers' mouths. That last shot I put up from the film, seems that it got folks upset because of his size... and because he wasn't in a state of rage. ANYONE that knows THE HULK knows that the character wasn't just a raging uncontrollable monster. He had moments of tenderness, moments of introspection. Hell, all the way back in the days of Kirby and Lee... Hulk would be quite calm around Rick Jones, he would never lash out at Betty.... His fighting and anger was focused upon those that would harm him. It was a point of reaction caused by others' fear. As for his size... Having a 10 to 15 ft tall Hulk, I'm totally fine with. The shots I've seen look like they come straight from pen of Kirby... This is the dream of Hulk... for the first time ever, he doesn't look like some green paint smeared body builder in a bad wig. Suddenly he isn't a normal sized really strong dude... Finally he is SUPER HUMAN, no longer man, but THE HULK, and when you see him taking on jets, tanks, helicopters and other creatures... As he causes havoc in San Francisco and causes devastation. As you learn where the real anger inside of Bruce Banner comes from, his repression, his past that he's locked into a dark corner of his ID that he dares not go, but that the HULK lives in... This film is going to kick the shit out of the low expectations that I've been seeing in many of the Talk backs, and I couldn't be happier. I have NO DOUBTS about THE HULK, come late June, neither will many of you. OH... and about the Purple pants... I for one am glad they are there... last thing I need to see in the theater is the emerald schlong and tackle. Hehehe...

Hey Harry!

I'm a long time reader & fan!

This is just to let you know that yesterday i saw the FINAL HULK trailer by accident...

Of course I can't remember every frame, but I can tell you that the trailer starts with Dr. Betty Ross discovering Dr. Banner on the floor in his room, with his clothes all torn up... She asks him where he's been last night, and he starts detailing how he had this incredibly vivid dream... (We see flash cuts of him inside this big pod, then a lot of the actual HULK coming out of it! The size of the HULK is amazing, and there's this shot of him "shaking" water off from his body that looks AMAZING)

The trailer is a lot longer than the one we saw at the super bowl, but it does contain some of the same shots...

You get to see Nick Nolte's character telling Dr. Banner to be very careful with his "temper", and you also see this conversation where Dr. Betty Ross tells a military guy bent on detroying the "monster" that it's RAGE that triggers the transformations... He says "That's a little far-fetched, don't you think?" She answers "I think we've past far-fetched a long time ago"

You do get to see the hulk standing on top of a Grand Canyon type setting, encircled by helicopters (He even grabs a hold of one, bringing it down with him) then you see him running like the flash (looks a little cartoony) and then jumping (BOY DOES HE JUMP!!!) just like in the comic books, about 10 miles in a single leap... GREAT SHOT!

And yes, you do get to see a "flash" of the famous "HULK DOGS" attacking... Since this was a test screening, I could not "pause" it, so I only got to see these menacing "blurs" crossing the screen...

I have no idea when this new trailer is coming out, but I can tell you it kicks ass! The HULK does look a little cartoony & Unreal, but it's a freaking 10 foot green monster, for Christ's sake! What do you expect? Realism? WRONG MOVIE!

I think this movie will be a WHOLE LOTTA FUN! Watch for the new trailer dude!

If you use this, call me the "Ang-Lee Green Giant"

Cheers, & keep up the good work!
