Mark Ruffalo On Playing THE HULK; Discusses His One Line In THE AVENGERS

I know I just barely caught the line the first time I saw the movie :) but it was worth it to see causal movie goers enjoying the film

Mark you ARE THE [frick]ING HULK/BANNER

I want to see another hulk film with Mark

Capt.America - Stark we got em!
IM - Banner??
Cap - just like u said
IM - Then tell em 2 suit up! I'm bringing the party 2 u
Blk Widow - I don't c how that's a party
Capt. America - Dr.Banner now would be a good time 4 u 2 get angry
Dr.Banner - Well that's my secret Capt. I'm always angry (Hulks out)

That was EPIC!!! fav. scene of the movie!!!

@MrReese

That scene never fails to amuse people, I saw the movie 3 times and people still cheered to that scene.

And all you haters out there wined about norton not being recast!!!

all i gotta say is:

IN YOU FACE!!!

@thalidomide That scene comepletly sold me on Mark as Banner.That scene was incredible!!! I completely lost it!!! lol

@ror- spot on about many missing that line. I even missed it the first time, because I was laughing my ass off.

I personally liked Norton's interpretation of Banner =) I just hate the fact that they keep switching actors 4 the Hulk.N IF RDJ gets replaced I think that'll throw off the audience. I mean RDJ is IM much like Hemsworth is THOR!! In the end who the [frick] can pick up where RDJ left off!!?? That's like asking who's can pick up where Heath left off as the next Joker?? The bar is set high!!!

uhm NO

Hulk is becoming the Silent Bob of the MCU - he doesn't speak much but when he does, you'll want to hear what he's got to say!

best part of the movie was the end battle. every thing else was so good and that was even better! loved this movie!

So what was Ferrigno doing if not the voice of Hulk? Does he just provide the growls and roars?

You know how to tell if Lou Ferrigno is lying? Just wait till he opens his mouth. Steroid addicts are always lying about if or how much steroids they use, so it's second nature to lie and lie and lie.

I missed the line too because people were laughing like hyenas. I'll go back and see it in a few weeks when the hype dies down.

Yeah I didn't hear it until the 2nd time I watched the movie cause Hulk smashing Loki caused quite the uproar.

I really wasn't impressed with Ruffalo. Just kind of a bland performance, imo.

I think Ed Norton and Eric Bana where better.

@Greengo - no way bana was better. If Ruffalo was bland as you say, Bana looked retarded.

I gotta admit I was on the Norton wagon before the Avengers but now I wish Ruffalo was in TIH instead.

Best Hulk moments:
- Hulk punches Thor after they smash the aliens side-by-side
- Hulk tosses Loki around like a ragdoll
- Banner changes for the first time. the way they create that scene and able to make it fresh and scary again..especially by ScarJo's superb acting. incredible
- Hulk catches mjolnir and fails to pick it up from the floor, afterwards
- Hulk wakes Tony up at the end of the battle

Best IM's moments:
- getting the suit energized to 400% by thor's lightning and just runs with it
- his banter with cap
- his recognizing banner as his MALE soulmate
- the way he reacts to the files on cap, hulk and tesseract
- when he saves the day by 'guiding' the bomb to the 'other side'
- his banter with Loki
- his arrival at stutgart, germany
- his reaction to hulk waking him up at the end

Best Cap moments:
- when he's pissed while punching the bag. evans's a pretty underrated actor
- his banter with Tony
- his telling Hulk to 'SMASH'
- how he 'proves' himself to the two cops when they question his orders
- his sprint into danger, while widow and hawkeye covering him from behind with the aliens' laser shooting at him from all directions
- telling the other avengers the game plan
- eagerly telling how he knows the wizard of oz reference

Best thor moments:
- how he enters the plane and steals his bro from tony and cap
- when he buds Tony's head, in the forest
- when he summons thunder bolts from atop the chrysler bldg
- his heart-to-heart conversation with loki before the forest fight
- when he hits the hulk with mjolnir in slo-mo
- whenever he stretches his arm to summon his bigass hammer

Best BWidow moments:
- anything she's in...she's THAT hot

Best Hawkeye moments:
- shooting and hitting the aliens without looking at em
- the jumping off the building towards the end while shooting his last arrow
- aiming at loki with the whole team standing behind him, at the end

Best Fury moments:
- telling the council they're plan as a "STOOPID ASS plan". only sam's fury can deliver that line and make it work
- shooting a bazooka at the military plane
- "pushing" the team by using coulson's bloody cards
- anytime he's talking to loki

The "Puny god," line indeed was covered with so much laughter the preceeding scene has made, but when I saw it, people seemed not to miss that line and laughed even louder upon hearing it. The best moment of him for me is still when he defeats the first Leviathan in one blow, though.

Unless I'm a decade older than even my mother realises the Bill Bixby show was late 70's...Minor nit-pick.
The 'Puny God' line was great! :)

the loki beating is probably my favorite scene.

never doubted Ruffalo, i like most of his movies

@MrReese, the best scene ever, and then he goes MAD!

Wasn't overly fussed on Ruffalo as Banner, gimme Norton anytime. But the Hulk in Avengers is brillliant, I dunno if that's down to Ruffalo at all or just the animators.

@Earone

For Hawkeye, I'd add in the time he slides across the ground during the big fight scene and shoots.

For IM, definitely need to add in the Galaga reference. And his speech to Loki in the tower as well, "if we can't save Earth, you can be d*** sure we'll avenge it."

For Hulk, right after Banner tells Cap, "that's my secret...I'm always angry." and then a takes out that Leviathon with a single punch.
