    Eric bana’s movie doesn’t count let’s let it rest in peace

    1. Bring back the old school hulk! Don let him die away! I liked watching doctor David banner do his thing , trying to find a cure . Then fights against the military and foe. We keep loosing our superhero’s and we need them even more than ever the way this world is going. Exsplore the kids that were born from our hero’s and there parents passing on the torch together.

        Loved Dr. David Banner but didn’t he pass away?

        1. Marcus

          In the OG show his name was David Banner. There was a reason behind that.

      2. X

        It was Bruce Banner. Learn to spell before you post

        1. John

          Gee, someone made a error.

      Eric Bana’s Hulk was way better than the Edward Norton Hulk we got. I’d love to see the 2003 Hulk again even if Bana doesn’t play as Bruce Banner

      1. Vic

        I disagree. Edward Norton’s was the best. He had a hand in the script, and he wasn’t standing for all that stupid witty banter.

    The MCU lately has been very disappointing. The She-Hulk character was actually way more fun to watch than Ruffalo’s Bruce Banner portrayal. Ruffalo just never seemed to enjoy the role. He always came off as kind of bored with the whole thing. If we’re not going to get Maslany in the movies, then just ditch the Hulk altogether. Bana apparently doesn’t want it, Norton did it once, and now Ruffalo wants out. Last I read Maslany is open to continuing as She-Hulk so might as well go for it.

      Marvel already ruined a great mavel hero, by turning him smart. Time to reboot the hulk and making him as he was meant to be. And please ditch the hulk son.

      1. Dex

        One, as we saw in She-Hulk, Smart Hulk/ProfessorHulk is in no way permanent, this is just his current story arc. And 2, Skaar is a legitimate comic character. A redesign is definitely needed, but that is a legitimate thing that came from planet hulk in comics as well.

      2. Lolo

        Uhhhh you obviously don’t know much about Hulk because he was smart in the very beginning but they made him rage and “dumb” later

      3. John

        How to spot a plastic marvel fan.
        His son is the beginning of the comic story which leads to hulk destroying worlds. And is also a young avenger

    2. Colin

      I rather liked She-Hulk, season ending notwithstanding.

    3. BlackStar9000

      Anything involving the MCU version of She hulk is doomed to fail before its even made… That’s hobad the she hulk Disney series is… We have never had a version of the huld that actually matched the comics properly… Why not let hulk rage the way he’s supposed to while banner tries to coexist with his love interest Betty… The OG 90s cartoon is his best version so far

    Bring back Lou Farigno

    1. G

      Who wrote this article? If it was a 12 year old, nice work, solid B- effort. If it was an adult who got paid, please reevaluate your life.

  4. MKH

    Body of work! Dude has basically been in nothing worth while in years. He would be lucky if Marvel would every call him.

    1. Mib

      Meaning he doesn’t want to do shitty kids movies.

  5. Nick

    Good, we don’t want him back either

    1. Starfrog

      Why? Cos yes smart enough to leave disneys mcu, cos it’s getting worse every movie/show?

  6. Skippy McDougal

    Eric Who?

  7. J. DEE 153

    Besides Lou Ferringo, Edward Norton’s was the best movie Incredible Hulk Bar none!!

    1. Jana

      Totally agreed

    2. I’d like Bana to give it another shot. I’d love to see all three Hulks in an MCU multiverse snatch, ala Spiderman. That would be cool, if done right.

    3. Fekt

      Lou is a very old man who would not look all that good painted green. Because Bill Bixby (RIP) was the one who played Banner. So I’m not sure how you’d fit Lou into it at this point. He’s done a few cameos in various MCU films already.

    Thanks for the spoiler warning ffs

    I’ve been a Marvel fan since I was a kid in the 70’s and the Incredible Hulk has been one of the most popular mainstream character. To see how the MCU had mishandled the Hulk’s story arc and how they “punked” him, I don’t blame Ruffalo for not being interested in playing this character any longer. It’d all about the money, because I don’t understand why one studio refuses to allow another to develop a well known and well loved character where both can make a buck. I don’t care if they got to recast another actor to keep the Hulk going. If they do remove the Hulk from the MCU (and the She Hulk is a far cry from the Incredible Hulk) then I will never watched another film or series again. If all of us fan draw a line and make a stand, surely they will hear us and act accordingly. At least we can hope.

    1. E

      We do need to ask draw a line, I have drawn mine already, I can’t believe people on here remotely liked She-Hulk, they keep ruining our heroes, the thing is, I really like the idea of She Hull Attorney at law, but lazy and woke writing with no heart just propaganda fuels the writing room and that creates disasters.

  10. JMA

    Good riddance.

  11. Lolo

    ………Bana, Norton, and Ruffalo hulk are all the same hulk! They aren’t different variations. Go back and watch hulk and the incredible hulk. TH ended in Brazil and IH started in Brazil. And Tony was in the after credits scene in the incredible hulk……

  12. Christopher Jones

    Personally. I Wouldn’t Mind Seeing Edward Norton Take on the Role of David Banner/ Hulk Once Again. I Thought He Did a Good Job at the Portrayl of the GIANT Green Guy. Ruffalo Will ALWAYS be the Best Version of the Hulk…

  13. Milissa

    Ruffalo is a jackass. He doesn’t act well and there has to be a better choice..

    1. Doesn’t act well? That’s why he has been nominated for several awards and win a few?

  14. Justin

    So, is a Lou Ferrigno cameo a possibility, then? A Liv Tyler appearance would be nice too.

  15. Stop trying to polish junk, Ang Lee’s Hulk just plain sucked.

  16. Connor

    Is it Mark they are on about

    1. M

      Bana

  17. M

    All due respect, but no one is asking for Bana or Norton (whose Hulk is semi-canon via post-credit scene) to reprise the role.

    It’s unfortunate when bad movies happen to good actors. Bana is very talented. Likely he has zero wish to return to the role.

    1. Mo

      Good-bye. He seemed to not even like being the Hulk. Don’t recast. Just continue with She-Hulk

  18. Anthony

    The only other person that can play hulk is Norton in my eyes if mark doesn’t wanna play him anymore the hulk son can come in for a bit but shouldn’t play a big part of the universe marvel needs to buckle down after the last few movies its starting to look like DC movies and it isn’t a good look.

  19. Starfrog

    Disney killed mcu anyways, who cares? They only make shite nowadays

  20. Guy

    Good riddance. He was a horrible hulk
