The trailer for The Incredible Hulk is finally here (quite specifically here, at MTV’s site), and while I won’t talk about the FX (which supposedly held the trailer up and which I don’t like to critique based on little windows on the internet), I will say that I am shocked at the amount of spoilage in the trailer. It seems like they’re giving away what I understand to be one of the coolest scenes in the movie, albeit one stolen from The Ultimates. Making judgments based on a quick cut trailer like this is a fool’s game, but I like the vibe that Ed Norton has as Bruce Banner, and I like that Live Tyler seems to have no lines.

Looks good. Tim Roth is a nice suprise, didn't realize he was in the film. Hmmm.
hrm. Not bad. It's distracting having the other version so recent to compare it to. Kinda interesting, too. It seems like from this trailer that they might save all the Hulkage for the climax.
Shoulda waited for quicktime
It seems they've co-opted the great Hulk/Banner/Fugitive storyline from a few years ago into this film.
I don't see why everyone hates the first one, but this one looks like comic-y goodness
Boourns, won't play outside of the U.S.
True, many interesting spoilers. The "evil" one looks like Mr. Hyde from League of Extraordinary Gentlemen — and obviously repeated/borrowed FX are a minus in my book.
I know I'm in the minority, but I actually enjoyed the Ang Lee Hulk. Deal with it. That being said, I too am digging the vibe of the new movie. As for people who get angry or confused by recent flims about the same characters having different vibes/backstories/actors etc, think of it this way….It is really no different than having a new artist/writter team take the reigns on a new story arc. I just hope the CGI is as laughable as the Ang Lee version.
Hey, I liked Ang Lee's "Hulk" too!
Trailer looked good, but either they are keeping some big scenes secret, or they are spoiling in order to distance themselves from the previous film.
Either way, liked what i saw.
Not too sure on this… could go either way…
Its only viewable i USA, is there any way i can view it.
Jessica D (and all those not aware), the "evil" one is Abomination. A pretty significant villain in the Hulk universe. He is very much just like Hulk for many reasons. Look it up online if you want.
Otherwise, this looks decent. I also loved the Ang Lee version and I hope that being on MTV, the hype for this movie increases massively.
its a weird trailer…there is no flow to it and then they seem to show us what I imagine is a pretty significant part of the film at the end there…..oh well theres no audience for this thing anyway
First some goddamn ad for the fucking 21 movie pops up and annoys the fuck out of me. No fucking close or kill but on the motherfucker. It finally goes the fuck away. then I click this fucking link and I am fucking redirected to a fucking advert page. I have to fucking click on skip this shit. What the fuck CHUD? Rent up this month?
That trailer could definitely kill what little interest there is in the film. That was bad… real bad.
not in the u.s., no prob (=

So now the hulk is a green male model bodybuilder? Fuck off. Looks like shit. Ang lee's hulk for all the undeserved shit it coped actually had a hulk that looked mean and imposing when he needed too and at the same time display the loneliness and pathos needed to be the hulk. This hulk looks like it needs a mirror to get its makeup done.
WHAT!??! YOU MEAN THE INCREDIBLE HULK IS A COMIC BOOK ADAPTATION AND NOT A FUCKING DOCUMENTARY!?! COUNT ME OUT!!! I ONLY WATCH ART FILMS BECAUSE I HAVE TASTE!!!!
But seriously. Take it for what it is-a good time. And it's not like people have shotguns to their face and are told to choose between this and Iron Man. Most will see both.
here's the trailer for canadians http://www.gametrailers.com/player/usermovies/187973.html
At least she's a better actress than Preempted Taylor
All of that waiting for that trailer was underwhelming to say the least. I'm hoping a poorly cut trailer isn't a snapshot of what's to come.
There is an HD quicktime link right on that page.
After Batman and Ironman this doesn't really get the job done. Maybe they should have waited and released a finished trailer.
So does Hulk actually fight with effort against The Abomination or does he yield to his inner Bruce Banner and phone in it ala The Italian Job. Also, in what rational world does Gary Busey not play The Abomination??
Did anyone else find the opening scene, with Bruce and his friend sitting in front of the fireplace, a tad unintentionally(?) homo-erotic? My sister and I were laughing our heads off.
Now that was one hell of a ropey trailer.
MTV.com sucks! It would stop avery few seconds to keep buffering. Put this up on a REAL site (Apple.com).
I really liked this trailer, and I am looking forward to this. But I don't like the look of the Abomination. He looks emaciated and dead, not strong.
I'm not feeling this trailer. I appreciate the fugitive vein they're employing here, but the trailer starts off with cliched dialogue and ends by spoiling what is probably one of the bravura sequences of the film. To top it off, both the Abomination and the Hulk look very underwhelming. I love the humans involved with this movie, but I really feel like we're going to get a dumbed-down action-packed Hulk to compensate for the slower-paced Lee version– which I fucking loved. Color me unimpressed.
I thought it was an ok trailer. I still reckon the film will be pretty good. Of course, I'm not one of these people that expect every comic book film to be Shakespeare, so I imagine my opinion doesn't really count too much in a conversation like this. Oh, and for the record, I thought Ang Lee's Hulk was great, and as much as I would have liked him to continue with the franchise, I'm not going to let that spoil what is potentially a hugely enjoyable summer popcorn flick!
The cgi Hulk in the first movie was the very best thing about that film. This new one could use some work. And this so-called Abomination is nothing more than a boring generic movie monster now. I understand that the scaled and finned comic version may not have played well on film, but if this is the best they could come up with, they shouldn't call him the Abomination. I do like Norton as Banner though.
Cautiously optimistic. If only Tim Story was directing!
I agree with William Sims, the CGI Hulk from the first one looks better and with Leterrier's description of the Abomination he should of just called him "Doomsday".
Whatever. Complain all you want people — the really cool thing here is, if you go to the site http://incrediblehulk.marvel.com/, listen to the background music after the trailer plays — what does that sound like? I'll give you a minute… got it yet? It's an orchestral reference to "The Lonely Man," the piano piece that ended each episode of the original Hulk TV show, starring Bill Bixby! Seriously, I think that's pretty cool. They definitely are using that show as a cue point for this movie, and I'm very ok with that. Loved that show when I was a kid!
Very lucky all the cars in the street were abandoned off to the sides of the road to give them space to run at each other!
