Definitely got the resemblance.
And while I like Ruffalo a lot, it’s kind of a shame that we have 3 different actors for the 3 different movie Hulk appearances. Is Ed Norton really that much of a pain in the ass? Was Bana even approached?

I like Eric Bana, but I think the mentality studios have is to abandon everything associated with a failed movie.

Hence the reason Brandon Routh will probably never be superman again.

I don’t know. As far as visual rendering, and making the Hulk look like a good representation of his comic book appearance, I think they did an okay job. None of the films have had good writing, and the Hulk has never really looked integrated into his environment, but I give it a B/B+.

Is it wrong to be sexually attracted to the Hulk now that they gave him a whole bunch of body hair, like Ruffalo?

Dunno the truth of it, but what I heard was that Ed Norton wrote a rather large portion of “The Incredible Hulk” plus a large assist in rewrites. Apparently he wasn’t credited for it in the movie upon release, so he lost his shit and refused to be a part of anything Hulky in the future. Dunno the truth of it, but that’s what I’d heard at the release of Incredible Hulk…

From what I remember, it wasn’t really that Norton was pissed that he didn’t get a credit.

Apparently Norton added a lot to the script. His addition were filmed, but left out in the final cut. Marvel wanted a movie that would have a wide commercial appeal, but Norton added a lot of dark things. In Norton’s version, Bruce Banner tries to kill himself in the beginning of the movie. The scene was filmed, and it’s on the blue ray. I know for a while you could find the scene on youtube.

Marvel decided the scene was too dark, and they cut it and other scenes to make the movie into a more strait forward action movie. Commercially, that was probably a wise choice, considering Ang Lee’s approach didn’t really work.

After that there was the predictable blowout over creative differences.
