Another Incredible Hulk? Why?

Didn't someone just do an Incredible Hulk movie?? Why make another so soon if it's not a sequel?

and why is this 2nd hulk movie no better in the graphics department than the first??? It would make since if they made a hulk movie that was superior to the first. at least one that was on par with the iron man movie, especially if they're going to have both of these guys on screen together in the future.

We have to redo everything to bring it up to new broadcast standards and of course
to keep up with the new HD sets coming out, not to mention now that blu ray is out
they need to make it seem like a new movie to make it sell. It's amazing they are
making as much money as they are with some of the new movies that are out but the
theatres are filled up on the weekends and then they buy it at wally world in 3 months.

Because the last one was such a wussy whiney dipstick of a movie. Oh, Bruce, you have to show more affection! Oh, my childhood traumas! Oh my damaged paternal relations! Oh, my feeeeeeelings.....

Just turn green and smash some stuff, dammit.

its because movie makes cant come up with any new and interesting ideas they have to just steal ideas from other movies or TV shows, most of the time it works out ok, ie speed racer. but other times they fail big time, like this one.

This one is being done in house by Marvel, just like Ironman was. This one should be much truer to the comics than the total whackjob of a movie HULK was.

I was a little surprised myself that they decided to do a Hulk movie after having one just a few years back, but some of reasoning appears to be to reclaim the franchise with a story that doesn't suck.

I'll see it. I bet it'll be good. People expecting the Bill Bixby/Lou Ferigno style of turning any pants into tattered shorts and flexing a lot will probably not be ready for the much faster, larger Hulk. I think that's part of why the first movie died...everyone wanted to relive the late 70s show.

Why? Why not? As long as people are willing to waste their money on the garbage that Hollywood is putting out, they will continue to pump out lame movie after lame movie.

i just have to say that i see sequles (spelling?) as remaks, now if you want to say Pirates of the carribean 1 and Hellboy 1 that is fine but Hellboy 2 is a remake in my book. But i do get your point that they do come out with a good new idea every once in a wile but most of the time it is the same old stuff. Not to say that i could do better because i cant, and there is nothing wong with remakes as long as they are better then the first and not within like weeks of the last one.

exactly what I think a Hulk movie should be. The last one was junk, not to mention that split screen or quad screen or whatever it was effect bugged the hell out of me. I'm pretty sure they're considering this one a "reboot of the franchise", not that we haven't heard that about a trillion times before.

I'm pretty sure it was because the last one totally bombed and they couldn't incorporate it into the story line of the future Marvel movies that are coming out where they're going to start joining things and everything's going to intertwine.

I'm actually kind of excited about it since watching Iron Man.. what a sweet movie.
