People want to see handsome muscles, great costume, elegant action, while Hulk is just a bunch of green mass and lot of anger. He's great as a supporting character, not as the lead one. <br /><br />@Tom<br />Oh, you kinda got me with that Pattinson joke at the end :) I thought you were serious before I read the last line :)DEZMONDhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14127166104359407763noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4651358851207677633.post-7627378986133610372010-07-13T07:34:59.277+02:002010-07-13T07:34:59.277+02:00Okay Phoenix is a joke.

I have a feeling they keep cycling through the lead actors attempting to find someone whose going to bring the same big bucks, and while Norton brought in better critical reviews and a little better box office it's still wasn't what they wanted. Frankly that's the fault of Marvel and the fact that The Hulk films have been mediocre in terms of story, plus the character itself isn't that interesting, it's a CGI Jolly Green Giant! I think they believe Phoenix will bring in a bigger crowd simply because everyone will want to see his return to the big screen. Personally I think he could do an outstanding job, but I doubt the story will still be anything to talk about if the first two films are any indication. Personally I think they need to give up on The Hulk and move onto something they can do without having the character completely CGI.Snipeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05084449549914572738noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4651358851207677633.post-42523248608358204012010-07-13T00:19:27.450+02:002010-07-13T00:19:27.450+02:00Mmmm, not sure how I feel about Phoenix.
