Ahoy, squirts! Quint here with the second half of my HULK interviews. We had producers Kevin Feige and Gale Anne Hurd up first and within a minute of them leaving actor Tim Roth and director Louis Leterrier sat down to chat.
As you’ll see, the interview is full of laughs. It was a very light and fun chat. I hope you guys enjoy it!
Ahoy, squirts! Quint here, finally getting to my Hulk review.
I’ve commented on the movie from time to time as various trailers and stills… I believe the words I used were “it looks cool, but uninspiring.”
So that’s where I was when I saw the film. I liked Ang Lee’s movie, but as much as I defended it when it came out I can honestly say I haven’t had any desire to rewatch it, even though I picked it up on DVD. IRON MAN rocked my socks off and I was hoping I didn’t feel “meh” on THE INCREDIBLE HULK.
The age-old argument of Ang Lee's HULK: love it or loathe it? It's a bit like the Jets and the Sharks, if the Jets were people who hated the film, and the Sharks were four guys standing in a corner trying not to advertise themselves too much. Though I haven't seen the first film since its cinema release -- and I'm well aware I could feel very differently about it if I were to watch it again -- I loved the hell out of it. I described it as a work of art at the time, and I stand by that
Hey folks, Harry here... Nikki Finke published a story declaring that Ed Norton flew into a rage and had walked off of THE INCREDIBLE HULK and was refusing to allow himself to do any press on the film. First off... Wouldn't that be awesome if it were true? I love the idea of Bruce Banner hulking out behind the scenes of THE INCREDIBLE HULK.
Hey folks, Harry here... I know I'm a crazed geek that can't be trusted... but here's the responses we've gotten thus far from our screening as well as other screenings. Enjoy...
Did he really change into the Hulk? That question asked by Harry's nephew during the Q & A after the screening of THE INCREDIBLE HULK tonight in Austin sums it up pretty well for me. If you can make a child truly believe that a human character has transformed into this huge green superhero, then I think you've accomplished what you set out to do.
Hey folks, Harry here - sorry for getting this up a little late - I've been in Los Angeles all week doing secret identity stuff - and some things for the site. But here's the winners - See y'all at the Alamo Drafthouse South - beginning at 5pm for the pre-party - and the screening that night with all are fabulous guests and fun. Once we get through this estrogen weekend.... testosterone will flow! HULK style!
Hey everyone. Capone in Chicago here, and the hits just keep on coming.
In my never-ending efforts to bring early screenings of as many of the big summer releases as possible to AICN readers in Chicago, I have an EXTREMELY LIMITED number of tickets to see the Windy City's one-and-only early screening of THE INCREDIBLE HULK on Monday, June 9 at a theater in downtown Chicago. This won't be the big blowout event that Austin is getting, but a free screening of a film like this is still pretty special.
Hey folks, Harry here - I'm giddy. Word from Moriarty is solid - word from the other sites seems to be lining up that THE INCREDIBLE HULK is Incredible. And we're going to have some Lou voiced HULK SMASH style dialogue. I'm delighted. I pursued getting this screening set up well before the tide turned on the HULK buzz. It was actually the day after the IRON MAN screening - I just refused to believe that Marvel was set to fuck this up.
Okay... so the other day, three clips showed up online for THE INCREDIBLE HULK, which is not a sequel and not a remake but which is more a case of Universal and Marvel hitting the reset button by mutual agreement. Everyone looked at the Ang Lee film and just... decided to do something else this time. It’s that simple. We knew that as soon as they started work on this one. Not a sequel. Don’t even bother calling it a reboot. It’s just different.
Hey folks, Harry here... ya know... this kicks ass. There's a lot of folks that seem to be rooting against THE INCREDIBLE HULK - cries of "Too Soon!" and blasphemers that claim, "The Hulk is a stupid character." - Bah! I read Ed Norton's script for THE INCREDIBLE HULK - and honestly... I really really liked it. Now - we've all heard stories about what a pain in the ass Ed Norton is - but ya know what?
Ahoy, squirts! Quint here. I almost attended the New York Comic Con myself, like I did last year, but things just didn't come together quick enough. Thankfully we have some readers who were on the ground to fill us in on some of the goodies. If you've seen any of the panels and want to give us a heads up, feel free to email us at harry@aintitcool.com and we'll make sure it ends up on the site!
Hey folks, Harry here... Seems we're expecting THE INCREDIBLE HULK trailer any day now - and Universal has teasers for the trailer - and why not... we're all curious as hell about checking this film out. Just so ya know, though... that guy that Banner is talking to, who has seen everything - that's a pre-Doc Samson, Dr. Samson. And dig the TV show green eye contact and shadowy strained angle shot! That got me geeky. Can't wait for a full reveal... but I wonder if we're going to get one. Surely we will, right? Right?
When I ran that, I knew for a fact that Sam Jackson was cast as Nick Fury, and I was amused to see Paramount and Marvel and Jon Favreau all play coy and almost-but-not-quite call me a liar when responding to the news.
Ahoy, squirts! Quint here. Universal put out their 08 preview and Harry nabbed the DEATHRACE remake still and I have a photo of Ed Norton holding up the comic book equivalent of steroids. Yep, I think of the two movies this one stands the better chance of not making me wish I was drinking cooled vomit for 2 hours instead of sitting in the theater and being eyeball raped.
Ed Norton is a great choice for Banner and I love the look so far. What do you folks think?
Ahoy, squirts! Quint here. I am recently returned from a trip to Budapest to watch a night of shooting on HELLBOY II, so I can confirm pretty much everything our new spy has to say about the project.
Hey folks, Harry here again - just finished reading THE INCREDIBLE HULK script by Edward Norton. The scenes below are from the epic battle at the end of the film. The destruction you're seeing there could be moments before The Hulk arrives - or slightly after - depending on which bit of destruction in the streets of Harlem that this could be. That's right - that could be ABOMINATION destruction and not HULK destruction. But from the looks of it - shit go boom good - and believe me, there's lots of booms in this film. Here ya go...
Hey folks, Harry here with some flaming explosiony flipping car Hulking out stuff that was shot last night in ... well, CreepyThinMan will tell you. Here ya go...
My man JvG sent in some shots from last night's filming of THE INCREDIBLE HULK in Toronto; we really appreciate the effort he went through to bring us these.
Ahoy, squirts! Quint here. So, we got sent in the below images from spies in Toronto. It's Harlem via Canada, eh? THE INCREDIBLE HULK is filming up there and now we get some images of the chaos and destruction from the big lug. Thanks to RoninKengo for the photography... and be sure to check out his blog for more pics!
