It seems pretty remarkable that "The Incredible Hulk" opens in just 12 weeks, yet no one has seen any good footage or pictures or even a real damn poster. The movie cost 150 million dollars, yet Universal doesn't seem to be promoting it at all. Why would that be? Maybe because the movie has real problems right now, mostly Ed Norton, who once again is thinking he's way more talented than he really is. The fantastic website Deadline Hollywood says:
Norton and Marvel are clashing over how to cut the pic. Insiders say Norton was "promised tremendous involvement and access" after Marvel invited him into the core team to rewrite Zak Penn's script. Says one insider, "There's a lot of posturing going on between Edward's camp and Marvel over how you edit the final version." Sources also tell me that, starting last night and continuing at least throughout today, the actor will be holed up with Marvel Studios chairman David Maisel, Marvel Studios president of production Kevin Feige, and director Louis Leterrier to try to "reach an amicable resolution" to this $150+ million film feud.
Ed Norton is an idiot. I think. He mumbles almost always and I can never understand anything the fuck he says so maybe he's really fantastic and I just don't know it. The only time he's coherent or believable is when he's yelling or has some showy actor-y crutch and that shit is easy. The Ed Norton school of acting is just, "ooh, look at me, I'm blind, I'm looking 6 inches to the left of you, because I'm blind. Where's that cup? I don't know, I'm blind, let me feel around for it." Or, "duh, I'm a retard. See, my fork has a cork on the end and my polo shirt is buttoned all the way up. And the third button is in the hole for the second button, making it askew. Because retards don't understand buttons." This guy is a jackass. Everyone knows Zak Penn wrote this script yet Norton says he did. Just because he changed it doesn't mean he wrote it. I could draw big tits on the Mona Lisa, that doesn't mean I can say I painted the Mona Lisa. I just made that shit hot.
Why doesn't he just settle this by curb-stomping a permanent smile onto their fuckin faces? That'd teach them.
FIST
And for your greatest trick, Heir Eisenheim, make yourself disappear!
First Rule Of Edward Norton Club: Be A Douche Bag
B you are a retard. Ed norton is one of the best actors in the business. the issues come when the producers start giving actors more power than they should. look at the little cunt earlier today….she's a "director" now because she is getting tired of being paid to walk around squishing her tits up against everybody.
They really missed the boat on this one.
Think of this…
Britney Spears as SHE-HULK.
I know for a fact that I am the greatest director of all time and my movie has is single handley the most important film ever made. Why? Because I fucking made it thats why. My movie even did something no other movie in the history of this world did: It came with a guarentee. I guarenteed that if you didnt like my movie, then I guarenteed you were a fucking retard that hates science and facts. Probably some religious type that thinks the earth is flat and god exists. Its a damn good thing one of you were smart enough to plant all those dinosaur bones to make everythink the planet is really really old while we figure out how to kill all the religious types.
If I had painted the Mona Lisa, I'd have definitely made it bigger…. and made it look more like Kate Beckinsale.
The only hope this movie has is if the Hulk turns into a relapsed white supremacist and avenges Danny's murder at the school.
Didn't I just SEE "The Hulk" a short THREE or FOUR YEARS ago?? Have they run out of movies to re-remake?
(Up next: "American History X-Men"?)
Let me just be the FIRST to say that Alan Eagle is a fuckin douchebag. That. Is. All.
Who knew Art Carney could be such an asshole?
"Bang, Zoom Straight to the moon, Norton"
Not knowing the exact circumstances, I'm going to side with Ed over the non-creative Assholes who have brought me abortions such as Daredevil, Elektra, not to mention their recent crimes against Comic Books, Exhibit #1 being Civil War.
So yeah, fuck Marvel until they prove they can do a comic movie half as good as Dark Knight.
If they're look for more comic book/strip movies to (re)make, here's my vote for another Garfield movie. That cat loves lasagna!
Also on my wish-list:
Herbie, the Fat Fury
Snuffy Smith meets Andy Capp
Howard the Duck…oh, wait, been done.
The reasons Hulk is going to flop is
1. this movie was made just a few years ago and it sucked
2. What can they put in this movie to cheer up the premise of this superhero? Nothing.
3. Everyone wants to see Iron Man, not The Hulk.
hiya!
Yes, but he fucked Salma Hayek, so no matter how untalented an actor he is, he will always be a GOD!
Let's not discount Ed Norton completely. I'd say he did a pretty bang-up job in Fight Club and American History X, to say the least.
When he fucked Salma Hayek, was that with or without the Frida unibrow?
"Don't make me Angry! You wouldn't like me when I'm Angry!"
David Banner Rules!
highly ironic you site is named after a movie that Ed was the main star of.
I work in the same building as Marvel and eat luch and hang with many of them on a daily basis. word amongst the Marvel kids is Feigen is a moron and wouldn't know how to make a comic into a movie if Captian America bit him on the dick. They all say that what Ed is trying to do and how it looks is great…….3 months out and no marketing is the heads at MArvels fault this will bomb not because it isn't good but because no one hardley even knows it is coming out ????
