Guillermo Del Toro meets Incredible Hulk!!!!

Wow I am sooooo blown away by the news that I just heard I feel like I must be dreaming! It seems that a certain incredible creative team is getting ready to blow some life back into the Hulk again in a big way! Apparently Guillermo Del Toro and David Eick of Battlestar Galactica fame will teaming up to bring us a brand spankin’ new vision of the Hulk for our TV screens according to Deadline.

This is probably the BEST Hulk news yet as everyone knows Guillermo knows how to make a good comic book movie (Hellboy, Blade 2) and certainly knows how to bring a monster to life!! It seems that Del Toro will be directing and Deadline reported this little interesting bit of info that also makes me sing with glee to the  jade giant: “Del Toro will also oversee the designing of the Hulk character, which is expected to draw on previous comic book incarnations, as well as the original 1978-82 Incredible Hulk TV series, with a few wild tweaks on the old look. Unlike the two Hulk movies, in which the monster was a pure CGI creation, the series will employ a mixture of prosthetics, puppetry and CGI.”

  Finally!!! A realistic version of the Hulk to look forward to! Continue reading →

The New Small Screen Hulk: Human or Cg?

So I am quite sure you have all heard the news out there about Marvel’s big plan to reboot the Incredible Hulk television show. I was personally quite surprised at the idea but at the same time excited and upset. The original  tv show was one of my all-time favs as a kid and even as an adult I own the episodes on dvd and still will argue that good ol’ Lou Ferrigno is the best Hulk to hit the big or small screen. So what does this all mean for the upcoming tv show?

Rumor has it that it will feature a similar storyline with the “Banner on the Run” theme once again. This all sounds great when you look back at the old series, but still there must be a reason why the two movies were never really that well recieved. When Lou Ferrigno was aksed why the show was such a success and the movies tanked he hit the nail on the head Continue reading →

Bruce Banner and pay phones just don’t mix!

Here’s a funny clip from the amazing Incredible Hulk Tv show where Banner is trying to use the pay phone. It seems he’s just not getting the results that he hoped for and well you can guess that makes him ANGRY!! Usually you have to kick the shit out of him to get him to change into the Hulk. But as you can see here all you have to be is an irritating phone operator to get him into a complete maniacal rage!! Next time just dial 911 maybe?! Oh yeah and not having enough change at the payphone always sucked but really banner-calm the hell down already!

Old hulk Dude Vs. Real Hulk!

Geez “Old Hulk Dude” sure is creepy huh? Just by the looks of him you know that he’s a total prick! A total prick in need of a serious smackdown! I just think, just maybe, they could have gotten someone with a little more muscle on him to play this older Hulk creature don’t you? He looks like a damn tooth pick next to ‘ol Lou! But let’s be fair-Old Hulk Dude has some seriously flashy moves he flaunts on the real Hulk. Hell, the first time I saw this episode I could NOT wait for this loser to get his ass kicked! So here it is the final battle in this amazing, epic 2 part Hulk episode entitled “The First”. I highly recommend watching both episodes in their entirety. Highly, highly entertaining…. 

The Hulk-Out list: David Banner’s Series of Unfortunate Events!!

After putting the Youtube video up yesterday about David Banner in rush hour traffic I thought it would be cool to show you an entire list of ways that he “Hulked Out” in the original live action Tv show from the 70’s starring Bill Bixby & Lou Ferrigno. This list was compiled by Kenneth Johnson the creator of that very series and many other awesome Sci-fi shows like V, Alien Nation and the Bionic Woman. check out his website here at  http://kennethjohnson.us/

Here are all the ways listed, and man I am glad my life is no where as unpredictable as Banner’s from the tv show-it’s really unbelievable the luck this poor guy had. Check this video out and then the FULL list of Banner’s crazy consistent bad luck! Continue reading →
