Bruce Banner, a scientist on the run from the U.S. Government, must find a cure for the monster he turns into, whenever he loses his temper. After surviving a deadly gamma radiation accident, scientist Bruce Banner travels the world in search for a cure to his inner force of rage that turns him into a massive green monster known as the Hulk. Though he is close, Banner must watch out because the malevolent General Ross and his team are searching for him and want to use his condition for military weaponry. Running out of time and options, Banner turns to his old flame Betty Ross for help. Meanwhile, a new threat rises as a power hungry soldier turns into a deadlier and more terrifying beast that can match even the Hulk's powers. Don't make him hungry! You wouldn't like him when he's hungry <br/><br/>Bill Bixby's infamous caveat, once again comically bastardized; in Ang Lee's HULK (2003), Eric Bana delivered it in Spanish at movie's end; now in 2008, Edward Norton delivering pidgin Portuguese - badly.<br/><br/>Neither a sequel nor an origin tale, THE INCREDIBLE HULK is an adrenalized shot to the sternum if it doesn't knock you black and blue, it will at least slap you and call you Susan.<br/><br/>The intro sequence reveals the origin back-story, allowing movie to hit the ground running, with skinny Edward Norton as Bruce Banner hiding out in an old-world Brazilian village, text on screen, "Days without incident: 158." Our first impulse is "Wha-?" This is Edward Norton after all, of renowned Thespian fame; maybe a tad overqualified to deliver lines like, "Hulk smash!"? Then it hits: it's EDWARD NORTON, no stranger to Dual Personality from his breakout schizoid role opposite Richard Gere in PRIMAL FEAR (1996), Norton delivers "second personality" like second nature.<br/><br/>In Brazil, Banner works in a bottling factory, performing body control exercises with a meditation guru who thrills in bitchslapping him incessantly; monitors his heart rate via a wrist readout and, unlike the rest of the<br/><br/>world, tries NOT to "go green," awaiting an antidote to his Hulk genes from an online mystery man in America named Mr. Blue, before he dares return home. (Banner's code name… Mr. Green. We didn't see THAT coming.) And running gags about stretchy pants abound <br/><br/>But General Ross (William Hurt) wants Banner's genes to utilize as military weaponry, so single-minded that he would risk his own daughter's life to attain that power. Typical pathological military jug head nothing we haven't seen in the real world. There's crazy. Then there's Army Crazy. Ross enlists the aid of hard army grunt, Emil Blonsky (Tim Roth), injected with a super-soldier serum (wink to Captain America fanboys) to take on the Hulk mano-a-mano and capture him for lab experiments which probably include examining the magical material in his pants.<br/><br/>The Hulk's first appearance is well-staged, in glimpses and silhouettes. When we see Hulk in full battle daylight, it is astounding! Not just due to the effects team (Gentle Giant Studios, among many) melding him with "reality," but because of the innovative motion-capture technology of Giant Studios. When the Hulk and the soon-to-be-birthed Abomination move, they are smoothly human; walking upright casually, interacting with debris, machinery, people, water rivulets cascading off flexing muscles and though his name reflects the 1962 Marvel Comics creation, no more is Hulk a bulky blob, but a svelte man-machine with a sexy v-shape. I especially like the way these creatures run full tilt, with the desperate lean and violent arm-swing of slim sprinters.<br/><br/>There are innumerable canonical nods and winks: Stan Lee as an unwary office guy who drinks a soda tainted with Hulk blood; Bill Bixby in a TV snippet from COURTSHIP OF EDDIE'S FATHER; the *Lonely Man* theme from THE HULK TV series, where Bixby walks the lonely highway in snazzy bell-bottoms that will be shredded by the next episode; a cameo by Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.) to synergize the Avenger Initiative; and not least, Lou Ferrigno! <br/><br/>When Banner gets back to the U.S. he looks up his old girl, the daughter of General Ross, Betty (Liv Tyler), who, like every woman whose love-of-her-life is on the lam, is time-serving with another guy. Of course, the part-time boyfriend is a complete dork who looks like Casey Kasem in a vest. (It's never a David Lee Roth circa 1980 Van Halen.) When Betty accidentally encounters tragic Bruce, she's all over him like a thousand-dollar hooker. If only all women were so devotional as to curl around you so urgently and intimately after years of separation. That's why they call these things "fantasy." <br/><br/>Betty and Bruce seek out Mr. Blue (Tim Blake Nelson), who has been hoarding Hulk blood samples like geekboys hoarding back issues. Mr. Blue doesn't really help Bruce, but he helps the plot, when Emil Blonsky, insatiable for monstrous power, forces Blue to inject him with Hulk blood; apparently, mixing super-soldier serum and Hulk blood creates a big vomit-colored, bone-splintering monstrosity called The Abomination which precipitates the TRANSFORMER moment: that point in any film where you realize everything on screen is computer-generated and that this eye-candy battle between two big things might as well be a video game and you're sitting here watching it even though you're over 30.<br/><br/>Still, the action surprisingly contains heart. Hulk becomes Hero. No matter the many incarnations that portray Hulk as brainless or fogged with gamma-amnesia, this Hulk retains a sizeable chunk of Banner-brain, and his fierce compassion bleeds right offa the emerald giant's computer blips. We sense that Hulk's most compelling battle is not with big things that go boom, but with himself. And as good as Hulk's battles are, I don't think many of us over 30 would complain had we been given more of the great Ed Norton doing introspective and sullen.<br/><br/>End frames set up the Avenger Initiative with Stark it is no secret Marvel are cross-pollinating their cameos; hope springs eternal that IRON MAN and THE INCREDIBLE HULK presage a spate of quality Marvel offerings, and that the slated 2011 release of FIRST AVENGER: CAPTAIN America won't be as super-mundane as the 1979 TV series, with Reb Brown gadding about in a foamy muscle suit and plastic bike. As a Cap fan, that debacle made me very angry.<br/><br/>Don't make me angry. You wouldn't like me when I'm angry. I just got home from the midnight showing of the hulk, and I must say, despite a lot of fears ( because of the 2003 "movie" ), I was extremely impressed. Edward Norton played the role of Bruce Banner beyond perfect, and I don't think it would be an easy role to play. Also, despite the fact that I can't stand Liv Tyler because she sounds like she's perpetually having an orgasm, I thought she did a fantastic job as Betty Ross.<br/><br/>The acting: I thought that the acting was superb, except for a few lines by William Hurt that just weren't quite believable, but absolutely nothing to complain about.<br/><br/>The plot: Extremely predictable. Then again, it's a superhero movie. I wasn't expecting a storyline that made the godfather look pathetic. The story was still immersing, and each character was introduced and developed quite well.<br/><br/>The filming: Excellent. My personal favorite shot was an overview of some mountains with a thick mist settling over them. Every scene with hulk is shot so that you get a good look at the big guy, but don't miss what's going on around him, and it's all done without showing you the view from every single camera on the set ( just some more complaining about the 2003 version ). The final fight is filmed incredibly, then again, its hard to make a fight between two 10-foot monsters look bad.<br/><br/>In conclusion, I highly recommend this film to any superhero fan, and also to someone not so fond of the genre. I guarantee you won't be disappointed. This Hulk is more viscerally angry and packs a bigger wallop than Ang Lee's talkier, more introspective version. But it's hardly the best superhero movie around. "Iron Man" was wittier and more fun. The Incredible Hulk is based on a fictional character created by American comic book artists and writers Stan Lee and Jack Kirby for a Marvel Comics comic book series of the same name. The Incredible Hulk #1 first appeared in May 1962. Yes and no. Depending on how you look at it, this can be a "reboot" of the Hulk movie franchise, much like <a href="/title/tt0372784/">Batman Begins (2005)</a> (2005) was to the Batman film franchise. However, there are references to the previous film. For example, The Incredible Hulk begins in Brazil, which is where <a href="/title/tt0286716/">Hulk (2003)</a> (2003) leaves off. This is because the script that was used for The Incredible Hulk was originally supposed to be a sequel, until Marvel decided against it, and Edward Norton reworked the script to firmly establish it as a "reboot". So basically, it is a sequel in that it continues from where Hulk ended. The flashback to the character's origin is slightly different to what happened in Hulk, meaning retroactive continuity. The reason for the "reboot" hoopla seems to stem from Norton's inability to take over another actor's role without it being considered sloppy seconds or the studio's wanting to separate itself from the wrongly criticized 2003 film, thus the idea that it's the first of a series instead of a sequel. We could also look at the "new origin" as Banner actually returning after the main events of the first film so that Betty and he could try to get rid of "it", unwittingly unleashing it again, hurting Betty, with General Ross pissed more than ever after giving him another chance. While the filmmakers and cast felt that the contributions Edward Norton made to the screenplay were significant, the WGA felt differently and gave sole credit to Zak Penn. The WGA tends to favor plot and structure, rather than dialogue and character changes, much to many screenwriters' chagrin. It's also possible that Norton requested not to be credited, as he has done uncredited rewrites on quite a few of his films, most notably(1998). The opening montage of The Incredible Hulk takes place prior to the events of <a href="/title/tt1228705/">Iron Man 2 (2010)</a> (2010) . The latter half of Iron Man 2 runs concurrent to the first half of The Incredible Hulk as the news report for the aftermath of the Hulk's battle on the university campus is on the news near the end of Iron Man 2. The final scene of The Incredible Hulk takes place after the events of Iron Man 2 as Tony Stark is just joining the Avengers by the end of the second Iron Man film. The obvious. Bruce Banner / The Hulk (main character) and Emil Blonsky / The Abomination (main Villain).<br/><br/>The not-so-obvious. Tony Stark makes a cameo appearance at the end of the film to talk to General Ross about the "Avenger Initiative." Stark Industries products are all over this film as well. Nick Fury's name appears briefly during the opening credits on a government document, hinting that, like in the comic books, he is behind the Hulk task force.<br/><br/>Sequel hints. Samuel Sterns / The Leader tries to help Banner cure his condition. Sterns' transformation into the Leader begins to happen when Banner's blood drips into an open cut on Stern's forehead. His head begins to pulse and grow, setting up a sequel with The Leader as the superintelligent supervillain.<br/><br/>Allusions. (1) Captain America when Ross talks to Blonsky about the super-soldier serum that was tested in WWII and was put on ice. There is a scene that didn't make the cut where Banner goes to Antarctica to kill himself. When he attempts to shoot himself, he becomes the Hulk and smashes an iceberg—the same iceberg which is supposed to contain Captain America. (2)Doc Samson: The psychiatrist whom Banner talks to about his "problem" (i.e., the Hulk transformations). In the comics, Dr. Samson is a long-time supporting character and becomes a superhero in his own right when he attempts to cure Banner by draining out the gamma radiation that turns Bruce into the Hulk and bombards himself with it. He has a cameo. He tells General Ross that they are assembling a team, which we all know to be the Avengers. He knows about it because in Iron Man, Nick Fury visits him at the end. These links turned out to be part of a trend in the certain Marvel movies published from 2008 onward. Marvel Studios gained the rights back to Iron Man, Hulk, Captain America, Thor and Ant-Man. These characters, along with Wasp, were the classic line-up of the Avengers. Marvel Studios' plan was and is to make the individual movies (which reference each other and establish that these characters all live in the same world), then cross them over into a multi-superhero epic (<a href="/title/tt0848228/">The Avengers</a> (2012)), and has already done so for the classic members of the Avengers. In the end of the <a href="/title/tt0458339/">Captain America: The First Avenger (2011)</a> (2011), it shows that Nick Fury, director of SHIELD, already started the Avengers initiative, and the Hulk had already been recruited. In Marvel One-Shot: The Consultant, it is shown that Stark was sent by Agent Coulson of SHIELD to retrieve the Abomination from Ross for the Avengers. But, unbeknownst to both Stark and Ross, the real reason Stark was sent was because Coulson knew that Stark would irritate Ross so much that there would be no chance that Ross would give them Blonsky. Yes. In Hulk, he was 15 to 25 feet tall, becoming taller the more angry he became. In The Incredible Hulk, he will not grow over nine feet tall, which is closer to his comic book counterpart's height of seven feet. Read more here. • A whole subplot with Betty and Leonard, implying that they live together, his implication on the attack on the Hulk in the Campus, his relationship with Betty and his feelings towards Bruce Banner.<br/><br/>• Blonsky describes the Hulk to General Greller: "eight foot, fifteen hundred pounds easy… and green. Or grey, sir. Greenish grey.. It was very dark, I couldn't tell."<br/><br/>• General Greller gets angry about General Ross's "bioforce project".<br/><br/>• Banner walks along a snowy hillside where he is going to attempt suicide.<br/><br/>• Banner delivers pizza. Louis Leterrier said, "all of the footage will be on the DVD", so most likely there will not be a director's cut. According to Kevin Feige, due to positive reactions to Mark Ruffalo's Banner in The Avengers, a sequel will be made after "Avengers 2" (the working title for <a href="/title/tt2395427/">Avengers: Age of Ultron (2015)</a> (2015)). No, but there is one scene prior to the end credits that actually was meant to play after the credits. Tony Stark finds General Ross in a bar and asks for his help about a "special team [they are] putting together". Only some of them. All cinematic material made under the Marvel Studios banner, e.g., <a href="/title/tt0371746/">Iron Man (2008)</a> (2008), The Incredible Hulk (2008), <a href="/title/tt0800369/">Thor (2011)</a> (2011) and(2011), are all set in the same universe (known as the Marvel Cinematic Universe), with the characters crossing over (most notably SHIELD personnel—Fury, Coulson, Romanoff or Barton), culminating in <a href="/title/tt0848228/">The Avengers (2012)</a> (2012) which ties these films together. Marvel Studios also owns/owned The Punisher and Blade, however <a href="/title/tt0330793/">The Punisher (2004)</a> (2004), <a href="/title/tt0450314/">Punisher: War Zone (2008)</a> (2008), <a href="/title/tt0120611/">Blade (1998)</a> (1998), <a href="/title/tt0187738/">Blade II (2002)</a> (2002) and <a href="/title/tt0359013/">Blade: Trinity (2004)</a> (2004) are/were not in the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU). Other Marvel-based films owned by other studios are not set in the MCU, due to differing ownership. This includes, for example: <a href="/title/tt0145487/">Spider-Man (2002)</a> (2002) and <a href="/title/tt0259324/">Ghost Rider (2007)</a> (2007) (both owned by Sony); <a href="/title/tt0120903/">X-Men (2000)</a> (2000), <a href="/title/tt0120667/">Fantastic Four (2005)</a> (2005), and <a href="/title/tt0287978/">Daredevil (2003)</a> (2003) (all owned by Fox). a5c7b9f00b The Day After Tomorrow full movie hindi downloadthe Wonder Woman hindi dubbed free downloadRed Planet tamil pdf downloadSix download moviesThe Phantom full movie 720p downloadWild Bill Hickok Rides full movie hd 1080p download kickass movieBarry's Bespoke Bakery full movie in hindi free download mp4tamil movie Yoshii free downloadthe The Tail Gunner full movie in hindi free download hdWonder Woman online free
