  • I feel like Kevin Feige has been gaslighting me for the past decade. So I needed to get this rant off my chest. Apologies if my voice sounds inconsistent here. I got a nasty cold halfway through this production. Anyway, Enjoy.
    This video got age restricted, most likely due to the old title. Hope you don't mind the change.

      Why even bother bringing up the comics? It’s a completely separate entity. The mcu doesn’t even bother following the comics most of the time anyway . What’s next, you’re gonna start complaining about starlord’s dad being ego or Stark and Banner creating ultron? Thanos defeating the hulk was necessary to show how powerful he is. I agree the character development is lazy and unreflective but not everything needs to be beholden to the comics.

      If I remember correctly, the Hulk was on loan from Sony and they wanted no onscreen development so they could do their own movie, but they never did their own movie. I think Marvel only acquired him around Ragnarök, but it seems like Ruffalo was dictating the character afterwards if they wanted him to continue to play the Hulk.

    The reason why “creative differences” happened with Edward is because he wanted to stay true to the comics with Hulk. He’s a huge fan of Marvel and wanted to be the most comic book accurate Hulk he could be, but they wouldn’t let him take over some of the production to do that. So blame the film studio he worked with. Not him.

    The worst part was that they actually wrote hulk into infinity war, they showed him bursting out of the armor and advertised it as such. They even filmed a scene with hulk in endgame where he is saving citizens from a fire. If these were included this could have been the “professor hulk” so that by the end of endgame could feature the planet breaker. They teased his revenge and didn’t play it through. His “love interest” dies and he has a building collapse on him. If there was ever a world breaker moment that was it. But instead he throws a bench.

    When they set up the "we worked it out" thing in endgame, I thought for sure at some point it would be the hulk tricking Banner or Banner tricking the hulk to lower their defences so they can get full control. Like maybe Banner's been quietly working on a cure in a deep meditative state undetected by Hulk's part of the brain, which leads to disaster and the hulk breaks free at the worst point of the movie and he realises he'll never be free.

      True, but even in the comics just like in real life, you can only be so angry.

This happen to bill a couple of times fighting against Juggernaut where Juggernaut tested Hulk’s rage where Hulk eventually reverted back to Bruce and Juggernaut gets confused on where Hulk went, allowing Bruce to sneak off. There were other villains that tested Hulk’s rage as well.

      @@Unchainedful There isn't really much of a comparison between real life and comics when talking about the hulk specifically (with a few exceptions). As much of a beating he's taken in the comics, Hulk in my opinion is arguably not just human, but a mutate. He has a healing factor which would imply that his anger technically doesn't have a maximum capacity unless writers vigorously downplay him for storyline purposes. Honestly, the MCU has continued to beat the shit out of the character repeatedly. The Hulkbuster scene alone made a tear roll down my face.

      I think a good comparison would actually be how Spider-Verse subverts what it means to be Spider-Man. It's a movie where there's literally like 6 different versions of him from vastly different timelines and as entirely different people (even as a Pig) but the core of the character isn't about how Spider-Man needs to be Peter specifically, they just need to be able to have his willpower to keep going. No matter how many times he is knocked down or fighting someone way stronger than him he always gets back up because he has the power to do so.
      "With great power comes great responsibility" and so on.
      MCU breaking the Jekyl and Hyde aspect to Banner/Hulk kind of defeats the point of the character. You could do a retelling where Banner is a different age, race, gender etc but so long as that Jekyl and Hyde aspect is in tact then the core of the characters is still there.

    The 2003 Hulk was my personal favourite. It explored the tragedy of Banner's past and emotional trauma that could be limitless. Also the fact that Hulk could get progressively more and more angry, resulting in him getting even bigger and stronger. The sheer brutality displayed by Hulk felt truly impactful and there were good moments of character, like him using a tank's cannon barrel like a clubbing weapon or him accidentally hitting himself in the nuts lifting a tank's turret. The actress for Betty, Jennifer Connelly, is beautiful and seemingly fit into that role like a glove. Her interactions with her military-man father played out really well.

    The MCU has never figured out how to distinguish it’s different heroes-especially as the roster grows. They all seem to be either invincible or weak depending on the plot. I’m not a comic book fan and didn’t really know much about the characters prior to the movies, but those early “episodes” were very enjoyable and I grew to care about some of them. I stopped watching after endgame but the characters now largely feel interchangeable to me. So I think what happened to Bruce/Hulk is likely evidence of a more widespread lack of care

      I get exactly what you're saying, and I started noticing this issue when they incorporated Spider-Man into the MCU. Don't get me wrong, I like Tom Holland as Peter/Spidey and I liked the dynamic between him and Iron-Man(though I do understand some of the criticism). But my biggest problem with MCU Spider-Man is just how much he feels like a "spoke on the wheel". His character has no individual gravitas. His character isn't written to be too imposing in the Avenger movies where he could feel like a stand-out either within the storyline and/or the action. He just feels like another guy on the team.
      His movies don't stand out from the rest either. Say what you want about the Raimi and Webb movies, but back when those movies were coming out, it felt like a grand event every time a new Spider-man movie came out. Now it just feels like MCU Movie number ____. It's good? Doesn't matter. It's bad? Doesn't matter. It just comes and goes. He may as well be Ant-Man. He may as well be Shang Chi. Who cares? It's just another MCU movie. No Way Home was the only time it felt like I was watching a "Spider-Man movie" and not a "MCU movie". Not that there's anything inherently wrong with having your movies or your character become so....MCU-fied, but I just expect more oomph from Marvel's most important character.

    Despite not being apart of the MCU, Ang lee understood the Hulk a lot better than most who wrote or directed the character. He was able to beautifully set the differences between Bruce and Hulk by showcasing that duality. He also was able to use Hulk as that physical manifestation of all of Bruce’s anger, frustration, and abuse. An important factor that the MCU severely failed in showing. While the 2003 film tends to be trashed on, it’s probably the most faithful live-action iteration of the character we’ll ever see. Bruce is always at war with himself and that’s always been a consistent factor for the character that I wish we can go back to in the future.

He would have been killed with a flick of a finger from current Hulk (given that, this Hulk was smashing Jeeps while current Hulk is supporting massive mounds of island with one shoulder and equalling the same Thor who stood in front of the full force of a neutron star). And yet he had the savagery, he had the anger, the loneliness. He was Hulk. The new 'Hulk' is really Banner who killed Hulk off screen and is wearing his big green CGI body like a skinsuit to puppeteer as he cringes at actual displays of anger and cites facts and logic to beat you.

    Also, keep in mind that in the comics, Professor Hulk was not just a merging of Bruce and Hulk's body, but their MIND as well, and that included Grey Hulk/Joe Fixit as well. Professor Hulk had Bruce's intelligence, Fixit's cunning tactical mind and humor, and Savage Hulk's compassion (something that most people gloss over. Despite it all, Savage Hulk is arguable one of the most benevolent characters in Marvel. It's just that the whole world relentlessly attacks him). Also, the story where the merging happens is one of my all time favorite stories (The Incredible Hulk #377).
    Later on Professor Hulk would be retconned into being a new personality in Bruce's psyche.
    The Professor Hulk in the movies is just Banner Hulk, from the Bill Mantlo era, but worse. At least Mantlo's version had Bruce fearing that Savage Hulk would ultimately take over... Which he did and led to one of Hulk's greatest battles in the comics.

Secondly, hulk getting a rematch with thanos and having the upper hand on him would've been a perfect end to his character arc. The movie already setup that hulk and banner lost twice and blame themeselves for the snap specifically because they couldn't beat thanos. If they get another shot at him and prove to be more powerful not only would that restore hulk to the powerhouse he once was, but it would also make that come back full circle. "We didn't lose this time." It would also add way more weight to hulk's overarching character arc. In every movie he was basically the nuclear option, somebody who was too dangerous to be used friviolously. Now we would finally get to see what a controlled non harmful hulk is like in the mcu.

But still no explanation as to why the f writers and directors decided to ruin the Green Goliath by making him a mere shell of his tru self and hide all his many abilities and powers leaving fans and newbies to think he's nothing special because he's always getting his ass handed to him like he's a big green wimp with no brain or 2 much brain and at this point I'd rather see him killed off then continue to see him in films anymore because his persona originality and character has been totally screwed up and it just sucks and I'm beyond frustrated by this bs version of the Hulk in most films leading up to Avengers Endgame witch was the last straw 4 me. So much I can't even watch the the film again I mean damn wth is up with the writers who seem to be hating on the Hulk being a major factor in any story line he is a part of or do they just have no clue who the Hulk is and what level of Capabilities bruce banner actually has and I seriously hope that someone or something changes the direction of his character and quick b4 it's too late to recreate the Big guy in Green and ultimately give him the respect and acknowledgement he deserves along with the film and or series to reflect that theory. The Incredible Hulk is supposed to be What his name says Incredible and there is absolutely nothing Incredible at all about the Hulk that we Hulk fans have been given so Marvel studios stop fn around and get it rite.

    I think a huge part of the MCU putting humor any chance they get into their movies and spinning serious scenes to have humor is a significant reason why we can't take some character's transformations/character progression seriously. I mean look at the new Thor movie for instance, my thought after watching that movie was "this is downright goofy, Idk if I can take Thor seriously at all." That feeling "creeped" in during the Thor Ragnarok movie, but was solidified in the latest one. I had the same feeling with the hulk as more and more mcu movies were dished out. It was very sad to see him written into a scaredy-cat into end-game when I wanted to take him seriously, but the "we have a hulk" line really meant nothing at all by then. I think what the MCU directors/producers have to learn is that humor is good, but don't turn every serious scene into having some joke or humor attached to it so characters can seem more impactful and drive home their more serious personalities.

    Professor Hulk was chosen to do the return snap because of the gamma radiation released by the snap and Hulk being created with gamma radiation. That snap should have got rid of Professor Hulk and amplified Bruce's Hulkness giving Hulk a new form because his body needs to heal and deal with a sudden intense surge of gamma radiation, which leads to a new larger, angrier and stronger Hulk that is more than capable of throwing hands with Thanos. It makes sense that Thanos beat up Hulk, but with Hulk back stronger and bigger he can have his revenge on Thanos by allowing Hulk to have his "fun". His new Hulk design would change with him being taller, larger and having a disgustingly high amount of muscle making him more of a monster than regular Hulk.

    Also, the Professor Hulk of the comics was written (mostly) be Peter David, a freaking genius, and his story run is great. For one thing, Professor Hulk per se is regarded as a very problematic degeneration of the Unified Hulk (aka Doc Green, who picks up a team of sidekicks like Doc Savage), who balanced the superego (Banner), ego (Grey), and id (Green) in a tenuous and dramatic yet triumphant fashion. Prof Hulk is mostly just a strong confident Banner, who eventually breaks down under the strain of trying to have only one factor of his personality in primary (instead of balanced) control. (The Unified Hulk doesn't return until the Worldbreaker, who is radically overpowered.) But even this nuance is gone in the MCU. He isn't even the slowly shattering Professor Hulk from the comics.
    Notably, the Professor Hulk (Banner being the only personality evident) in PD's run wasn't the first time the comics had done this for a while. It happened back before and during the Secret Wars maxi-series, too -- with a similarly shattering psyche being the result, though with less dramatic nuance. Turns out Nightmare, a Doctor Strange villain, was behind that the first time -- who gets his ass thoroughly kicked (for a while) by Banner in the Hulk's psyche as what seems a suicide move, leaving over the total Id mindless Hulk, trapped by Strange (after a murderous rampage) in the Dream Dimension for some time. Many of us thought the MCU writers were setting up something like this in Multiverse of Madness (where in the first draft Nightmare was indeed the villain).... but we know now how that turned out, thanks to the script being completely rewritten during shooting.
    Ah, well. We hardly knew ye, MCU Hulk.

      100% no question about it. Definitely a better character (and actor) and the Hulk looked a million times better in it. Looked bigger, more intimidating, and looks way better with bangs. Not to mention he actually gets more and more angry and it’s shown. He’s also a much better fighter compared to the avengers one. Like he grabbed a car and ripped it in 2 and used them as boxing gloves (which is sick af) and he also did the hulk clap to take out fire to save Betty and stomped the ground and caused an earthquake to make abomination lose his balance and as he was staggering then rushed forward and grabbed the chain that Abomination had and used it to choke him out and take him out. And Abomination is powerful af and the reason Hulk was able to best him was cause he was trying to save Betty (so character development since Hulk cares for Betty just like Bruce does).
      U want to know the stupid thing? The “creative difficulties” they had with him and the reason he was fired was cause Norton wanted to stay true to the original character cause he knew this is what they wanted to do with the Hulk. These people are so stupid it’s not even funny. They should’ve listened to Norton. He knew what he was talking about and what everyone wanted.

I don't even know if it would be worth watching. I'm embarrassed of what the Hulk has become. The Russo's stating character development of the Hulk but what for and why? Legit has no purpose or meaning towards the bigger picture. Completely unnecessary... Don't even get me started on all the past fights he's had throughout the MCU, to lose single-handily to pretty much everyone, is just downright annoying. When infinity war came out I was happy to see that Thanos and the Hulk were going to face off. Until my boy got wrecked in 10 seconds. Like what??? Also not even a redemption to face him again in ENDGAME. My guy was still holding up the Avengers compound that whole time??? Ugh genuinely so upset with this. I can go on and on about my frustrations but this post is meant to say I understand where you're coming from.

The last Marvel product with its own true identity that respected the Hulk was Avengers Earth's mightiest heroes, and they cancelled that to make way for an inferior show that would capitalize on the MCU. It was never about respecting the characters, but milking them dry.

    I never really saw a good example of the Hulk's healing factor in the MCU. All other versions of the Hulk had a healing factor. In the comics, in the animated stuff, in the 2003 movie with Eric Bana, even in the old Bill Bixby TV show, the Hulk always had a healing factor, usually on par with Wolverine's. But I never saw this in the MCU that I can recall. And that's just awful. Also, I don't believe Endgame Hulk was Prof Hulk. I think that was just Banner Hulk (Hulk's body with Banner's mind). Prof Hulk had Hulk's body and Banners intelligence, but also had green hulks aggression as well as Grey Hulk's cockiness. He was actually a bad ass!

      Like the video says, the downside to Hulk is the risk for collateral damage due to lack of control over his immense power. This is why his presence does not make any other Avenger redundant. The same way having nuclear weapons does not make other (less powerful) weapons redundant. Different threats require different capabilities and different levels of risk that are considered acceptable. The confrontation with Thanos was the perfect time for them to completely unshackle the Hulk, but instead they went the opposite direction.

    I strongly agree with a lot of what you said, especially regarding Age of Ultron onwards, but I’m really disappointed with how fast you glossed over The Incredible Hulk. If you ask me that was one of the best incarnations of both Bruce Banner and the Hulk that we’ve gotten, and right up there with the animated portrayals. You didn’t even delve into the character like the other movies, but just said that the movie itself was mediocre and then moved on which I don’t think is fair. I don’t know why a lot of people find the movie to be boring because I thought it was a very interesting and captivating story about the Hulk as a character and how he came to be. Not to mention the movie actually portrayed him as an intelligent yet savage, animalistic beast unlike the rest of the movies, and was probably the most comic accurate. I’m sure it has a few flaws in its plot and all that, but I can easily forgive and ignore them for everything else the movie has to offer, especially on the character alone. That was when Bruce and Hulk in the MCU were at their peak.
    Also not entirely related but I don’t think the CGI was bad at all. I thought Hulk and Abomination looked really menacing, and there was a lot of care into the detail from the veins to the muscle fibers, and even tinier details like the sweat and dust. I thought they blended really well with the real environment unlike current characters in the MCU who just look really colorful and cartoony with little to no detail. The only time it looked kinda off was when Hulk was standing face to face with Blonksy but that’s it really. They were a lot more beastly and violent-looking compared to Hulk in Avengers 1 onwards.

    In defense of "I'm always angry," I thought this line was a pretty clear... if somewhat indirect implication that Banner had simply learned to control his anger rather than avoid it. I took it similarly to the adage about bravery, that it isn't about being fearless but rather a matter of being able to face your fear and still soldier on. Similarly, Bruce is at the point where he can control his anger, providing he isn't stressed beyond his ability to cope with, but he's seen so much shit that he's not really able to just up and forget it. Hence, it's kind of easy to comprehend how he could have a steady undercurrent of well-suppressed rage without becoming the Hulk unless he either has good reason to (during the Battle of New York) or is severely overwhelmed (as in the Helicarrier Rampage).
    In a more general defense of Avengers 1, it... sounds like a lot of what you're asking for is long-term Hulk cooperation. It... sounds like, even with the qualms you have, the film could've easily gotten away with the lack of exploration of these details if it had simply been followed-up by another that did.... wherein lies the problem.
    A similar, partial defense of Age of Ultron... or at least the opening... the film can justify dropping the Team Nuke on a Hydra Base a lot more easily... because it's a Hydra Base. At least as far as the film wants us to think of them, Hydra are just all evil bad guys that the Avengers can beat-up without remorse (nevermind that they're all still people, some of whom may have been blackmailed, gaslit, or otherwise indoctrinated into where they are now, but that's another topic altogether), and the Avengers do have a means of de-escalating the Hulk after all's said and done (even if all of the development to achieve that is done off-screen, a recurring theme of the Hulk and/or Banner's character in the MCU), so why not let him loose? It's not necessarily a leap of logic to say that Natasha's method of calming the Hulk is unreliable or circumstantial, but this is shown to be a situation where it works, and accordingly, it's not hard to say that deploying Hulk should be mostly a win. That's not to say that what follows isn't underwhelming, or that the Hulk hasn't been massively underutilized... but I think this scene is also defensible... once again, provided that the development is received _eventually._
    Which it isn't, and which, I think, is the root of the issue. Or one of them. Another is, to be honest, I feel like the entire MCU has been rushed to shit. I'm not even a fan of the comics or previous adaptations, but I really liked the first phase... however, after that point, the MCU seemed to just start throwing massive story beat after massive story beat at the audience, and not giving any of them time to steep. Even with very minimal comic knowledge, I can tell you that they should never have just charged into Ultron like that. I think either Marvel or their Disney overlords were too concerned with introducing the "next big thing" to actually take their time and flesh-out what they'd shown so far.

    It's honestly sad hearing all this and knowing it be true. I used to think Thor Ragnarök was a good movie but after recently reading planet hulk for the first time and reading more comics of him only to go back to the movie just felt like i was not only lied to but slapped in the face.
    I just learned that the comics are a lot better and gave up on the movies a good while ago.

      Why should the comics dictate your opinion on the movie. It's a well made film that draws inspiration from the comics. It's not an adaptation nor should it be. The comic book medium is a very unique and you cant just adapt that into a movie one to one. You should just appreciate both for what they achieve on their own.

      @@Ryancamron3342 because they absolutely use the comics as a basis and for way more than just "inspiration". What a lame excuse. Where did the idea of the infinity stones come from? THE COMICS. Where did the snap come from? Russos didn't come up with that. Where did the storyline from Ultron come from? THE COMICS. What about Civil War? Captain America vs Ironman? The idea of the government trying to regulate superheroes? Whered that idea come from? THE COMICS. What is SECRET WARS? A COMIC STORYLINE. But you smugly say "why should the comics dictate your opinion on the movie" without realizing how asinine that question is. And no, you shouldn't appreciate bastardizations of established lore and stories. Let me flip it back at you. Why I should I appreciate something that names itself the exact same name as the comic book storyline, but tells a completely different story and does little to nothing to respect the material it's based on? And is the 2 hours of crappy mild one liners and rushed CGI warrent that treatment of the source material?

      @@georgealvarez1195 You didn’t address anything i said. Your just listing off surface level inspirations from the comics which further proves my point. You think civil war was anything like the original story? I’d commend you actually go back and read the comics cause they are similar in name and surface level aesthetics alone. But that’s fine. As I’ll say again. It’s hard to directly translate a story that works in one medium to another. There’s a reason why video game movies and movies based on novels always manage to be terrible. You have to draw inspiration from the source material but you should never be a slave to it

      I tell my friends all the time the reason why they made it Thor Ragnarök was because it’s Hulk title and a lot of people wouldn’t care as much as they would since it’s Thor. I enjoy the movie but I hate when people don’t understand that it’s Hulks story.

    I always had the headcannon that the Hulk wanted to kill her. Remember the early MCU movies and characters were based mostly on the Ultimate comics, in which the Hulk isn't a confused and angry child but a malicious monster that actively kills and eats people.

    They should have took a nod from the comics and cut him from the team following the Avengers. It would make sense that the team would not know how to handle him out of conflict and difficulty getting him to respond appropriately in combat. Hulk as the outsider is what would happen with some like Thor genuinely treating him as a friend, Tony relating to Banner and treating the Hulk like a weapon, and most members treating him like a wild animal with Hulk smart enough to know people are lying and pretending to be his friend to placate him. Then maybe the team coming to terms to form an understanding when they need him for major events with the focus on the Hulk solo when we see him. That in my opinion would have been better.
