Norton's Hulk wouldn't have took all those shots by the Chitauri that [racial slur] would have rip those puny aliens in half. ;)

I loved Norton. Mark and Ed just bring out different sides of the character

That's crazy. But maybe it wouldn't have received the same praise as his performance in The Avengers.

As much as I like TIH, no matter who would've been cast, it seems nobody else liked that movie.

It is amazing how Ruffalo did Hulk justice but we do not see a stand alone Hulk movie feature on the horizon yet!

Ruffalo is perfect for banner, absolutely satisfied. The only other character that was as well casted was Tony Stark.

Lmao. Ruffalo's performance was flat and drab imo.

The only thing special about that performance was the CG Hulk.

Both were awesome!

I liked both a lot. I really liked the Leterrier CGI Hulk, lean and mean, with a great roar. I actually would have preferred Norton to Ruffalo. He was more believable to me, but Ruff is fine.

Something else funny, in the 2003 movie, they wanted Ed Norton. Now were hearing that in the 2008 version, they wanted Ruffalo.

had doubts about Ruffalo as Banner, but he did a good job, would have been cool to see him as Banner in "Incredible Hulk"

Norton was rather boring as Banner. Ruffalo was more charismatic. Ruffalo was better IMO.

The great thing I feel a lot of people are forgetting is; by the time The Avengers came along, the SFX were 10x's better than TIH. That being the case, the effects crew were able to now put Ruffalo's character into Hulk's appearance, making him even more believable. There was a slight disconnect with Norton's Banner/Hulk-save for the little scar on his cheek.
I did enjoy both performances though.

I like how at first everyone pissed and moaned about Ruffalo getting the part and now everyone loves him

I don't know if it would have made a difference. I Liked the Incredible Hulk and thought Norton did a good job in it. The big difference is that in The Avengers, they changed how they did the creature effects. Ruffalo was the only actor to play both Banner and the Hulk. That would have stayed the same, no matter who got the part.

@Sanderman exactly what I was thinking. Bunch of cry babies.

I'll take Norton's hulk any day. They should have also kept the Hulks look and demeanor. I didnt like how they made him ape like the Avengers.

Let Whedon write the next hulk script, banner will star, Leterier can direct the crazy action scenes and let Del Toro have some input on creature design and we will have the best Hulk movie ever!

TheLokey1 - 3/8/2013, 9:56 AM
Whoops, *Ruffalo will star

Bring back Bill Bixby! Oops, well maybe for a zombie version of the hulk. Ok, that was tasteless & disrespectful, my bad.

I don't quite buy it, but I did like Ruffalo a lot.

I know this may be unpopular, but Norton was just a teeny bit closer to how I read him in the comics. Ruffalo nailed the scientist though

i dont wanna sound mean, or rude. but bullshit! lol hes just saying that now, cuz mark is famous right now ultimately its the director choice of picking the actors for the roles. anyways, can't wait for iron man 3, and fast and the furious 6, and others, much others lol another big year of comicbookmovie !

jaysin420 - 3/8/2013, 10:25 AM
Nothing against Ruffalo but I think pretty much any other actor would have succeeded in this role.

In the Hulk and TIH, Banner spent the entire movies basically alone trying everything possible to not become the Hulk (which is pretty damn boring).

And in the Avengers, Banner gets to hang around with Tony Stark, Hulk out on command, and kick everyone's ass.

It's like Superman, people give Routh crap cause he was directed to play a lame stalker-ish Superman but now people will love Cavill cause he gets to play bad-ass Superman.

I THINK THAT RUFFALO PLAYED THE HULK AT THE RIGHT TIME WITH THE RIGHT DIRECTOR..THE TAKE OF THE HULK JUST WAS SPOT ON..YOU GOT A SENSE OF REAL DANGER, HE WASN'T A HUGE DUMB MONSTER HE WAS THIS HUGE DANGEROUS MOUNTAIN OF ANGER.

Before Avengers - Mad because Norton wouldn't be part of it.

After Avengers - Sad because ruffalo wasn't in TIH.
