    The rumor is that The Avengers will start with the team trying to stop Hulk when he's on a rampage. Sounds like a good intro if it's true.

    I disagree (but am not gonna flame ya'). I think the new one had way more of a comic book feel (sans that stupid comic panel thing that Ang Lee did). It had the same straight-from-the-comic moments that made Iron Man resonate so much for me (the cop car as boxing gloves, "Hulk smash!", etc.). The Lee version is like an art film attempt at a comic book movie, and while I enjoyed it, it didn't have the pump-your-fist "HELL YEAH!" moments that the new one does. Plus, Marvel's strategy of cross-referencing the movies gives them the feel that these new comic book films exist in the same cohesive universe, which makes them far more realistic to me (as much as a comic book movie can be, at least).

    Not to mention that Ang Lee's could have been trimmed down by 20 minutes and been a much tighter film, whereas the new one has a very brisk run time without any real lulls. Definitely a much better take on the character, and I can't wait to see where they go with the Marvel Universe next.

    Not sure if Thor or Capt. America is next, but they are both planned before the Avengers. Kenneth Branagh (:D) is rumored to direct Thor...no tips on casting. In the midst of these releases IM2 is supposed to be in the mix. If the quality of IM and IH is transferred to the next two, the Avengers could be quite a comic book extravaganza.

    BP could do it, but he's a tad old. I've also heard that Alexander Skarsgard is in consideration. He's the head vamp sheriff on True Blood, also was in Generation Kill. Dad's Stellan Skarsgard, who's been in many things.

    If you have Blu-ray and have a HT rig that can do 1080p and lossless audio this movie is a total assault on the senses. The movie itself, just ok. Lee's "Hulk" was better.
    If...
    Ron dislikes a film = go out and buy it.
    Ron loves a film = don't even rent.

    The effects are better in this one but the acting and storyline are far better in Lee's version. This one was pretty horrible sans the effects.
