I like superheroes, and Hulk is probably the most iconic hero, because of his complex nature, and the difference between Bruce Banner and Hulk, about the vastness of Hulks strength, which is very hard to get on film, because Hulk can be rather intimidating compared to Spider-Man, Daredevil and most of the X-Men, his limitlessness can be quite to much for people who want things to be within limits of sensibility, and Hulk defies sensibility I think Ang Lee got a better colour for Hulk and showed his physical strength most, and i also liked that it was more epic and psychological, rather then pure mindless action and smashing, except that the final bass was a mash of two Hulk enemies, it still worked sort of. Edward Norton Hulk was also good, but i felt it lacked the depth and interesting, aspects of Banners psyche and it gave also Hulk humanity which it sorely needs because Hulk is a hero, not a villain,  -------------

Both good films in their own different ways!
The Ang Lee one, even though Bana was a bit wooden in it, actually played like a sinister horror movie in some sections. A pretty unconventional and challenging take on that sort of genre film. The Norton one is more of a fast paced crowd pleaser, although the final 15 monster smash-em-up section lets it down a little. But the Norton one will get my vote, it's easier to give it repeated watches and it's pretty fun overall!

I hope a Dr Strange (non animated film) is in production soon, or Silver Surfer, -------------

I'm certain Doctor Strange is definitely being considered, vague updates of it seem to show up on various movie news sites every few months.
Maybe they can shoehorn Silver Surfer into the `Guardians of the Galaxy' flick that's filming at the moment! I still live in an ignorant bubble that hopes we get another appearance from Thomas Jane as The Punisher! I keep hoping he'll appear in an episode of `Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D' or one of those four new Marvel TV series accounced and in development, most likely the Daredevil one! 
Jane's return to the role in the fan movie `Dirty Laundry' wasn't enough! |

I actually liked Daredevil movie, easy 7/10 movie, I am not even against humor in comic book related movies, (though it seems hard core comic fans lacks a sense of humor, as they react badly to it), to m it is logical that they can have in-jokes, even though i reacted negative to some o the humor part in like the Hobbit, (movie) i sort of see it also as human nature (and Hobbit nature) to have unserious moments in serious times, and the opposite, Peter Parker was to little vice ass, in the movie as he is in the comics, specially with the hood on but also in the working space, he have jokes, but Toby forgot that, the I also liked those moves except the 3rd which was to romantic and love scene filled -------------

I'm pretty forgiving of most comic rook movies, definitely `Daredevil' is not too bad. Shame about the wonky wire-work in the fights though!
There's plenty of other fun ones around, even stuff like `Green Lantern', the Stallone `Judge Dredd' and the Billy Zane `Phantom' movies are pretty entertaining for what they are! |

yes, i have also seen plenty of Marvel comic series on youtube, Avangers, Silver Surfer, and X-men my favourite movie is Blade, and i like the quote "Blade has to get props for being the most obscure Marvel character to ever get a film deal... and television deal, too!" Im not an avid reader though, so my favorites is mostly based on face value (but i have read the Eternals by Neil Gaiman and i loved it, and would loved to see it made into a series) -------------

Fox still have the rights to the Fantastic Four (new film being made now) so I'm pretty sure Silver Surfer goes with them so no way in hell will he be in the GotG film. Rights to The Punisher reverted back to Marvel earlier this year so once they're done with the Defenders he may get his own short TV series, though hopefully without Thomas Jane as I thought he was rubbish. ------------- Spending more than I should on Prog since 2005
