Just finished watching it on Blu-ray and this is easily one of the best reference discs of all time. The mix was incredible...I felt like I was in a sound sex sandwich. :D

I loved it. As good as Iron Man, in my opinion.

Blu-rays are really taking off saleswise at Amazon. The Blu-ray for Hulk is currently the number one disk seller. The Hulk DVD is way down at number .... nine ...

Sales are down with SD-DVD and up somewhere's of 200% with Blu-ray, I'll have to see if I can find the link to the article.

Seen this a few times, not at all a bad movie, I think IronMan is better overall. What I did catch was the ending, which indicates that another good movie is on the horizon. I'll go ahead and order this one anyway.

I spun the Blu of this tonight, very good indeed, as good as Iron Man, no. It lacked the "cool" factor that Iron Man had. But, this is a very good film, as good as Lee's film, no. I still like his film better. Lee's film had better acting, better story telling and overall a better Hulk.
This does have one of the most amazing DTS-MA tracks I've ever heard. The channel separation is excellent while creating a very immersive sound field. Amazing! The image quality is also very good but after demoing "For Your Eyes Only" for my wife before the film, it falls short of being "that good".
All-n-all a very well done film and one worthy to add to the Blu collection.
Oh, and that ending, I had the biggest smile after seeing that. Yet another sign that Iron Man owns the comic book movie genre.

Tell me about it. It's times like these that I HATE living in an apartment! Good movie, on par with Ironman IMO. As others have said, I too loved the ending.

I thought this was 'OK' but just 'OK' I didn't enjoy it nearly as much as I did Iron Man.
And somehow, Ed Norton doesn't fit the part of Bruce Banner that well in my humble opinion. I do agree that the ending was cool though. Looking forward to see where Marvel takes it.

Agreed, I thought Eric Bana was a much better fit for the role. Norton is a fantastic actor but didn't really fit as well as I'd hoped he would.

So yeah I just watched this a 3rd time, awesome movie. Incredible SQ. Finally got to watch it in Hi-Def on my own 126" screen.............:)

Im waiting for this one to come down off its $20 price tags or SD. I figure itll be available for $10 at my local Movie Gallery in the previously viewed section which is where buy all my movies.
I saw this in the theater and thought it was excellent. I agree with everyone that it wasnt as good as Iron Man but it was still top notch especially for us comic book geeks.
Now thats pretty damn cool about that Captain America bit in the deleted scenes. I figured that was what all that "super soldier" stuff was they were talking about in the movie.

Watched this last night. Unfortunately don't have a BluRay player but the standard disk was decent.
Thought the movie was pretty good. I mean, assuming you go into it knowing it's a movie about a man who turns into a giant green monster when he gets angry... it was good.

Finally saw this tonight. I thought audio and video quality on blu seriously outclassed IronMan. I actually enjoyed the movie quite a bit too.... I liked the Tony Stark cameo, and can't wait to see what happens in the future!
Overall, I enjoyed this movie more than IronMan. I haven't seen Hulk yet, interested to see another take on this film.

Oh ya, saw this in 120" HD glory, picture thrown by my new Epson ProCinema 1080UB. Audio supplied by an Integra DHC-9.9, Emotiva MPS-1, LSi15 speaker setup, and Epik Knight sub. Seriously, it was actually HighDef nirvana!

This sounds like a NASCAR driver giving a review. You forgot to mention what cables you are using. Rock on.

Not to mention floor covering, additional sound deadening in the room, couch or theater chair in use and room or track temp. (might also want to mention any popcorn smells wafting though the air for that final bit of ambiance....)
Anyway - Glad you enjoyed it... :D

The rumor is that The Avengers will start with the team trying to stop Hulk when he's on a rampage. Sounds like a good intro if it's true.

I watched Ang Lee's Hulk last night. I hadn't watched it in awhile, since it first came out on DVD. Bana was a better choice hands down. Also, while the 2nd Hulk had a better story and the effects are superior to Lee's Hulk. I don't think it had that same Comic Book feel as the 1st one did. I'm starting to sound like a damn film critic I know, but I kinda appreciated the 1st Hulk more. IMO it was just presented better. OK, flame on!

I disagree (but am not gonna flame ya'). I think the new one had way more of a comic book feel (sans that stupid comic panel thing that Ang Lee did). It had the same straight-from-the-comic moments that made Iron Man resonate so much for me (the cop car as boxing gloves, "Hulk smash!", etc.). The Lee version is like an art film attempt at a comic book movie, and while I enjoyed it, it didn't have the pump-your-fist "HELL YEAH!" moments that the new one does. Plus, Marvel's strategy of cross-referencing the movies gives them the feel that these new comic book films exist in the same cohesive universe, which makes them far more realistic to me (as much as a comic book movie can be, at least).
Not to mention that Ang Lee's could have been trimmed down by 20 minutes and been a much tighter film, whereas the new one has a very brisk run time without any real lulls. Definitely a much better take on the character, and I can't wait to see where they go with the Marvel Universe next.

Not sure if Thor or Capt. America is next, but they are both planned before the Avengers. Kenneth Branagh (:D) is rumored to direct Thor...no tips on casting. In the midst of these releases IM2 is supposed to be in the mix. If the quality of IM and IH is transferred to the next two, the Avengers could be quite a comic book extravaganza.

Someone mentioned to me awhile back that Brad Pitt is rumored to play Thor. Whether or not that's the case, I'm not sure.

BP could do it, but he's a tad old. I've also heard that Alexander Skarsgard is in consideration. He's the head vamp sheriff on True Blood, also was in Generation Kill. Dad's Stellan Skarsgard, who's been in many things.

Is it worth renting? Maybe i'll fork over a few bucks to see it or wait forever on Netflix.

If you have Blu-ray and have a HT rig that can do 1080p and lossless audio this movie is a total assault on the senses. The movie itself, just ok. Lee's "Hulk" was better.

The effects are better in this one but the acting and storyline are far better in Lee's version. This one was pretty horrible sans the effects.

That vampire would be a great Thor,his about 10 ft tall & young enough & in shape!
