Incredible Hulk!
Got back abot hour and half ago to find mt flatscreen telly no longer working. Not had it 12 months! Anyhow dragged the portable out and Hulk the
films on. What utter pish! Americans just ruin everything. Since when was the Hulk a small giant? And did you know he was bullet proof too?
Must've kept that hidden for the last 20 odd years. Bring back Luis Ferigno (is that how you spell it?) He made the Hulk look proper hard.
What!!! He's even flying now!! (Calm, calm remember the therapy) Grrrr

Nah, he's not flying, just jumping an incredibly long way
I want to know how fast he runs, when he legs it from the underground bunker, just before beating up the tanks

To be fair the TV hulk was puny. The film hulk isn't even nearly as impressive as the original comic
In the comic books hulk could jump into orbit  and could withstand the impact of high-caliber artillery shells

Ahh. Never knew Hulk was in comics or never remembered should I say. Yeah, I suppose you've gotta go with the original. But you've gotta
get my gist, was so much better back then.

I'd certainly agree the film was rather pants.
Gotta go with whatever makes you happy
Hope you find the receipt, 12 months is a strange time for a flatscreen to go bang, I'd expect the traditional bathtub curve.

Most of the recent comic based films have been rubbish - they show all the characters you want to see, but they lack an actual plot (Spiderman 2,
Fantastic 4, Hulk etc.).
And the new Superman - why do they have to bring him into 21st century sleaze. Now he's caught in a love triangle and has an illegitimate child
with Lois Lane!

I'm still waiting for a decent 'Rogue Trooper' film, but having seen the dreadful  Judge Dredd maybe not.

The only problem with Judge Dredd (apart from the fact that they gave him a personality and a conscience by the end of the film), is that it should
have been Clint Eastwood playing the part.

The new Superman! Now that is rubbish. I sometimes think that ITV1 should be called the Superman channel. Its just back to back rubbish. Judge Dredd,
you're right Clint Eastwood would have been so much better.
As a quick side issue just ben told my TV only had 90 days warranty, only had it 7 months, and it was sold to me as used! This is new to me as I paid
£650 for it

I saw hulk when my mate bought a dodgy copy back from thailand. It must have been a pre final cut release as loads of CGI was dodgy, like parts of his
clothes and body kept disappearing. Also they had really quiet peaceful music most of the time even in the fight scenes.
Made it even worse!

As a long term X-Men fan I have to say I feel we've got off lightly and had 3 pretty good films.
Was a bit disappointed with the 3rd. I mean! Having set The Phoenix Saga up in X-Men 2 they could have done it properly in X-Men 3 but oh well!
Still gutted that Gambit wasn't in it!
Cheers,
James
