Hmm, looks ok. Totally agree about the action/chase scenes. That fight looks like it will be fun. =)

Never thought I would look fondly upon Ang Lee's Hulk.
After seeing this, though...

This is going to be one more cheesy pop corn flick with no substance. Once again, things look CGI fake, no soul to this characters. Give me Bale in a bat suit now, that is all I need this summer...

A big Hmmmm. The CGI still looks very plasticky, not a significant improvement over the last one.

Maybe though this trailer shows a effects work-in-progress, and it will get better.

CGI needs some touch-up, but this is obviously a rush-job to appease both fanboys and studio execs alike. Nobody does internal turmoil like Edward Norton, so my concerns on his acting are nil.

And as far as glasses on Liv Tyler goes: I'd love Liv Tyler in coke-bottle glasses. She's a goddess.

I had such hopes for this, but it looks like a cheesey sci-fi movie of the week.

I did like the nice shout out to the Ultimates however.

Wow, that was incredibly mediocre.

Well that was a very big nothing. To bad we don't have drive-in theaters anymore. This thing only looks worthy of a fuzzy screen, crackling sound and a screaming toddler in footsie pajamas who just stuck an ice cream cone in my ear... I'm not sure even a new trailer would help....

Surprisingly disappointing.. I had figured that this one would be a big step up from the past one (which wasn't great but I honestly didn't hate). The CG looks no better than the last one to me, with Hulk looking like a plastic action figure or something. I still hope for something to come out that makes it look better, but this trailer was not reassuring and ironman/batman look about 1000 times better at the moment.

Oh my God, this movie looks like TEN FISTS of FAIL.

I don't think it looks that bad. I'm interested.

I think he should never transform into Hulk, he should just stay as Edward Norton the whole time, just get angry. That fight would look a lot cooler if it was Edward Norton flying through the air.

doesn't look horrible, but not too good either. i'm just tired of superhero moview in general. and why do they all have to go through the "learning to deal with my powers" phase? the only hero film i'm really looking forward to is dark night.

maybe i'll see this thing a week or two after it comes out. that opening day is already taken by 'the happening,' and you can be sure i'll be seeing an excellent shyamalan film over this.

Now Elisabeth, we all know girls can't be smart or sciencey unless they wear glasses. Otherwise, how would anyone distinguish between the smart and the dumb chicks?

I've finally seen it.. And can I just say how funny it is that one of Toronto's strip clubs is prominently featured in the fight scene? (Zanzibar)

It's ok. Not awful, but not great. I'm not exactly drooling over this like I have over Iron Man or Dark Knight footage, but it definitely has possibility. The fight looks like it will be cool, but I'm not a huge fan of the Abomniation character design. Normally I'm very supportive about character design treatments in adaptations, but if you're making an all out brawl for all monster flick, I don't see why the original abomination look couldn't work.

That being said I think the chase is going to make this movie. Half the fun of the Hulk is that he's a big green goliath who can destroy anything in his path. The other half is that he's this very vulnerable and alienated person who is wanted for the destruction he causes everywhere he goes. He's a hunted and lonely man, and that element looks to be really important in this go around (yay for no Hulk-Dogs!).

Now revitalize the franchise and bring me Hulk vs. Wolverine. Hugh Jackman vs. a giant green monster = awesome.

I think this looks way to similar to ang lee's Hulk the big greeny looks almost the same except he looks more vainy and alomost everyone has seen "Hulk" so why do the origin story again why not do some other story, i mean unless you are under 10 i am sure you know who the hulk is and what he does and even why and how he becomes the hulk. i just want to see something new and this looks like more of the same.

I'm surprised by all the negativity here. I honestly don't expect a Hulk movie to be a fantastic film, just a fantastic popcorn film. Honestly, the thing that ruined the Ang Lee version was that he wasn't fighting anyone until the very end, when he fights his dad in some weird cloud battle (seriously, what the f%#% was that?). But you give me a villian to hate and a giant green badass to beat him up and I'll pay 9 bucks to watch it. This looks like it should be a helluva lot of fun. Count me in.

Damn, I was hoping they'd do something really great with the effects - but The Hulk looks only slightly more real than he did in the original - and that is probably only because it is dark, fiery lighting.

Writing and actions scenes wreak of typical rushed-to-market summer movie fare. Reminds me of *shudder* The Fantastic Four.

Too bad, I was looking forward to this one.

I think it's funny that I'm prevented from viewing the standard def version of this because I'm from Canada, but the HD version is not blocked.

...not that I'm complaining of course...
