Hulk
Last Weekend, saw The Incredible Hulk on Friday night. it was okay but hanging out at Kalamata’s and Maggie Moo’s before and after was more entertaining. I loved the opening shot. and the way they rehased the origin in the beginning credits. I loved the old school lab where they crammed Bruce’s brain full of gamma rays. I loved all the little hints about the broader Marvel world, and I’m sure I missed most of those, but besides a few scenes early on I just didn’t really care that much. It’s a fun action movie, but I guess I’m just getting tired of wathcing CGI monsters wail on each other or maybe my organ of suspension disbelief is atrophing in general. Every time that Bruce got big or the Hulk got small I’m wondering where is all that mass coming from and where did is it going. Should there be a huge sucking noise as cubic yards of air are sucked in and a huge fireball from where it’s transformed into green flesh. I can believe someone drinks a potion, gets bitten by a spider, passes through a weird belt of radiation, intentionally shoots himself in the eye with gobs of gamma rays and weird things happen. Maybe they get stronger, have more stamina, they’re senses become sharper, their baldspot grows back in. It’s all extremely unlikely, but I can kinda of believe it. The Hulk is just flat impossible.
