Default Edward Norton as the Incredible Hulk

The Ang Lee Incredible Hulk was one of the most disappointing movies I have ever seen.

Nothing could be worse than that film.

Default The most dissappointing movie I ever

watched was Ghandi. The thing lasted so stinkin long I was too tired to take advantage of the good lookin gal I was with. I just took her straight home.

LOL.

Not surprising since it was already bedtime after the matinee showing, what 7pm?

When I'm old, I think I'll hit the sack at 4pm.

I was only around 32 when Ghandi came out. I had just gotten divorced.

I saw it at a real theatre, not a video rental. I would never watch Ghandi now. He was too much of a pacifist for me.

I really like Edward Norton, but I just can't see him as the Incredible Hulk. Now with that said, he is so good that he just may make the sequel a fabulous movie. That first Hulk was a disaster.

We attended the midnight showing in LA, with my date awaking to ask me what she missed. I inquired as to what the last segment she remembered watching, when she noted, "right when Ghandi as a young man was seen leaving the train."

She has never seen the movie.

I agree. Ed is awesome. This is an odd fit, though, we'll have to see how it works.

Ed Norton in Fight Club was one of my favorite performances by an actor in any movie. He was also great in Rounders. He's struck out in few movies since then, but was decent in the Illusionist. I hope the new Hulk is cool but it has disaster written all over it.

I first saw Norton in Primal Fear and thought he was terrific.

Never saw The Incredible Hulk movie. Sounds like I missed nothing.
