Hulk good. Hulk much gooder than Oliver expected. In this Hulk movie Hulk actually fight and smash many things like in Hulk comic book. Oliver think Ang Lee could learn thing or two from this Hulk movie. Liv Tyler too mopey for movie, but sort of easy on Oliver eye. Ed Norton good at showing Bruce Banner pain. Hulk CG pretty good. Oliver like how title sequence set up Hulk story. Plot sort of thin, but me think spectacle of Hulk fights make up for lack of motivation for villain (Him just want to smash, but no have moral compass of Hulk). Cameos by Lou Ferrigno and Stan Lee (and Bill Bixby) funny. For Oliver, Hulk slightly better than Iron Man.
Hulk movie also establishing Marvel Movie continuity. Connect to Iron Man and upcoming Avengers. That Good. There no post-credit scene, so Oliver advise you: Don’t bother staying.
Hulk: Good Time. He lift up cars and throw. That what Hulk SUPPOSED TO DO, ANG LEE.

Bill Bixby? Isn’t he, um, not with us anymore?
The Incredible Hulk did as well as expected at the box office, which means it is on track to earn a profit by its initial push into the home market. Odds are this could be the last solo Hulk film for a while. (Although I hear rumors that he could be the bad guy in an upcoming movie.)
The biggest thing that will prevent a Hulk sequal is Ed Norton’s refusal to sign on for a second film. The other actors have, but he’s holding out (Whether for more money or just because he’d rather not be remembered as the dude who played the Hulk is anyones guess). The deal on the table appears to be another two films, probably a Sequal and a role in the Avengers movie. Marvel has said they don’t want to use any character when the actors established in those roles refuse to sign on. Something DC really should have decided to avoid the farce that the Justice League movie is going to be.
Better than Iron Man?
It was definitely better than Spidey 3…
I have not seen the movie yet, but I had to raise an eyebrow at your contention that it is better than Iron Man. That’s a high hurdle, in my book.
I echo the “Better than Iron Man” incredulity. What is it, the comic book Citizen Kane?
Notice I added the caveat “For Oliver”. I thought Iron Man was great, but I don’t think I liked it quite as much as everyone else did. Part of that is because of the Marvel comics I read, Iron Man was not one of them while the Hulk was, so I felt more affection for the character and story (plus I was a big fan of the ’70s series).
I think I’ve had bowel movements more entertaining than Spidey 3 though.
I want to see an all Dr. Doom movie. And not the stupid “Fantastic Four” movie Dr. Doom. (I liked the movie, just not that version of Doom.) I want to see a movie about the Jack Kirby Dr. Doom. Doom was cool back in those days.
It was awesome. I saw it yesterday. Oh and to answer Duros62 question…he made his cameo through a tv set showing an old program on Bruce Banners television. All of the cameo’s were very cool. Loved it. But I haven’t seen Iron Man yet *GASP* to say which was better. But I didn’t like the ending where Iron Man shows up and says “We’re forming an alliance”. That was the best part.
