I was amazed how Norton looked so much like Bill Bixby, uncanny.

Great movie, top 5 of the yerar!

How is he a g? Stop making an ass of yourself with dumbass shit like saying he’s a g. He’s an actor, not a gangster, got it?

Anyway, I think Norton will come back for the sequel. Again, there was never a fight or any Norton vs. Marvel, it was totally blown out of proportion by the media who just wanted to make a paycheck. Ed is a big fan of the Hulk in general so he’ll be back.

edward norton is defiantely one of the best actors we have today. he is extremely versatile and his art is sincere and creative. he deserves to do what he wants in his movies. especially in this movie. he actually cares about the hulk and has the story on lock down. he understands the complexity of the story. a man that is running from himself and having to learn to deal with something he truly hates. constantly searching for a cure. hiding from the government. he cant be with the one he loves and can never live a normal life. he cant even have sex. nortons script was probably the most accurate to what the hulk is in a real world setting. bruce attempting suicide would have been perfect. im sure his script is better than the one that we got to see. i thouroughly enjoy the movie and the elements were on point and norton did a great job as usual. but all this is is the studio wanting to make as much money as they can. dont offer someone something so important if you arent going to deliver. marvel will fail if they do not understand that action is not the main factor its giving a character depth and making him/her believable in a real world setting. i hope norton comes back. hes a g and always will be.

Marvel should be ashamed of itself, what a bunch of lame-asses who obviously know nothing about quality story-telling. I’ll definitely be pulling this one down off the Net in lieu of giving any money to these jackhole!

[...] Man ser att Edward Norton har tagit rollen på stort allvar och verkligen gjort Bruce Banner till en karaktär med lager. Inte bara det så hjälpte han även till med manus, fast då under namnet Edward Harrison. Nortons manus var dock mycket allvarligare och ännu mörkare som resulterade i att mycket klipptes bort. Detta skapade bråk internt tydligen och man kan läsa mer här. [...]

“I really dont think keeping the suicide scene ‘removes the risk’ from the helicopter scene.”

I totally agree. Remember that the previews contain the helicopter scene - followed by Hulk’s fist coming out of the crater created. It’s not the first time a preview has given away an important chunk of the plot line. That’s why I really liked the preview to AI.

I really dont think keeping the suicide scene ‘removes the risk’ from the helicopter scene. remember how he thinks he might be cured at this point? what that scene would have showed us is that banner cant kill himself without turning into the hulk instead, making the helicopter leap a tactical attack with an element of risk. instead, everyone just wonders what jumping to his death is going to prove, then wondering why he didnt die. If I didnt happen to see it in a comic once id have no idea that normally bruce banner cant really die.

[...] Edward Norton allegedly had some issues about the cut that was released, I wonder if his proposed cut would have made more sense out of some of the penultimate scenes. One scene which should have been massively climactic was glossed over and used as a device to get the two monsters fighting. [...]

I hate how it seems people are trying to fault Norton for being a perfectionist- it really isn’t a bad quality if he’s willing to go to such lengths for his art.
It’s easy to forget that the entire process of film-making is an art and I think Marvel has…or maybe they never knew.

Edward Norton is getting shit where shit is not due. =\

Hulk,
“Fight Club” maxed a little over 100 million and it also starred Brad Pitt, Norton is not a box office draw, the other hits that he was in was mostly due to his co stars like Matt Damon, Robert De Niro and Richard Gere. As far as topping overall sale that “Fight Club” accrued it will due that by next weekend , also were not just talking about one movie, were talking several which equals billions of dollars , its hard to turn that kind of money down no matter how rich you are.

Excellent reporting and fact gathering Peter. You certainly waded through a lot of material and presented a clear picture of what happened.
