I&#039;m just tired of people complaining about movies based off of fictional characters wanting it to be &quot;realistic&quot; or believable. While the movie industries do try to make it real enough, there&#039;s still enough weird and fantastical things that happen in their fictional worlds that can&#039;t always be pulled off in our world. Unfortunately. I do agree that CGI is getting old though. I like good old fashioned make-up and latex applications as well, and come to think of it- if they can make a demon creature out of Ron Pearlman and prosthetics, they may have possibly been able to do the same with the Hulk, though there is still the problem with his sheer size and all. </description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>My apologies.

If the Hulk were a person in real life and not fictional, just painting up some weight lifter guy would not do the Hulk justice at all because he&#039;s supposed to be 8ft tall or more! Plus, a body builder of human proportions would never be able to gain the muscular structure that the Hulk has because some of what you see is a mutation created by the gamma rays that Bruce Banner was playing around with. No real human being could pump themselves up that much and still be considered healthy. </description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Stop Whining!</p><p>If the Hulk were a person in real life and not fictional, just painting up some weight lifter guy would not do the Hulk justice at all because he&#039;s supposed to be 8ft tall or more!

Just after he&#039;s fought the Abomination, so he&#039;s dirty from the fight.  Which would explain the leprosy :) Personal, I remember when the first trailers came out.  I wasn&#039;t very excited about the CGI.  The new trailer it looks a bit better, but it still leaves me a bit worried. The only good thing I can say about the film, is it doesn&#039;t look as bad as Ang Lee&#039;s version. </description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Well looking at the picture, it&#039;s probably at the end of the movie.

I think that the old Hulk (from the most recent movie) looked too green, belonging more in a kids movie than a superhero movie that could be enjoyed by a more mature audience.  I think that the new Hulk looks much more real, and that it makes a great contrast to the smooth human form of Edward Norton.  I think it creates a more Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde feel to it, with this Hulk being less easy on the eyes and somewhat more hideous looking. </description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I disagree.

I&#039;m sorry, but throwing people around doesn&#039;t intimidate me, but throwing a car, yes. Normal-guy-with-green-paint won&#039;t work very well with a wire-rigged car without looking like crap too. </description> <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Yeah he looks like a giant green rash, but having a real actor play the beast will just destroy all capable effects.</p><p>I&#039;m sorry, but throwing people around doesn&#039;t intimidate me, but throwing a car, yes.
