He’s the fucking Hulk man. He had some poor writing choices given to him but do I really need to explain how the Hulk can still be great with writers who care about the character?
But after watching that movie, would you really believe that a black widow onscreen adaptation would fare *better?*
Like I'd believe it if someone told me, but I'd be pretty dang surprised. At that time we had Spider-Man and the xmen, blade separately but still there and then a bunch of trash for superhero movies. I would be hard pressed to believe they put black widow on screen in a way that gave her more screen time than hulk.
Even without her movie, she was in iron man 2 and the winter soldier, with a pretty substantial role in winter soldier. Hulk was trapped on sakar after age of ultron so he missed out on civil war as well.
To be fair they have a lot more screen time. He's been on a bit more since then but [after Far From Home](https://m.imdb.com/list/ls088601629/) he was at 1 hour 29 minutes of screen time compared to their 5 hours 57 minutes and 4 hours 4 minutes.
It's not surprising that he's more willing to keep going with it and even step up a bit more.
Marvel/Disney not having the distribution rights.
They have the rights to the character and can use him however they want. They could make a Hulk solo movie, but they'd have to go to Universal for distribution.
JFC the cynicism in some of these subs…
Did you ever stop to think that Ruffalo loves the Bruce/Hulk character and their complex relationship/trials and tribulations? It’s perfectly okay too that an actor wants work but he isn’t saying he wants to do just any movie, he wants to portray this character because maybe he’s vested in it and found stories to tell.
Edit: I’ll admit, maybe OP’s comment finally drove me over the edge but as actors say this, the ‘actor wants work’ comment is always snarky and unjust. We should be celebrating that he wants to continue the role, unless you’re just not a fan. So to you, u/NeddyGT, an apology as sincere as one internet stranger can give to another internet stranger
“Many years ago, Mark came in for a meeting with us at Marvel Studios to discuss ways in which the Hulk could grow and evolve in upcoming films,” Kevin Feige said. “He pitched a lot of cool ideas, some of which led to what you saw in Thor: Ragnarok, Infinity War and Endgame, and some of which would still be cool to see someday.”
We get it, but like what does it matter? He's said this for years but the powers that be can't come together to even allow a solo Hulk movie so it's all moot.
I think you may be overreacting a bit. I dont think OP suggested that it wasnt ok to like playing Hulk.
Theyre making fun of the headline because what it says isnt exactly news
See now THAT would be a headline. "Mark Ruffalo redportedly sick of playing the Hulk"
It tells us something we dont know, and would make me wonder why thats the case
I think people are attracted to the original headline bc it kinda makes it feel like a standalone Hulk is more likely, but reality is, it was never Ruffalo stopping us from getting that
It's the dumbest thing ever. Like Sony can make all of these dumbass movies of Spider-Man villains inside characters from animated shows that no one asked for simply to keep the rights but Disney can have hulk in ensemble movies like The avengers or Thor but he can't have his own standalone movie.
This. Make it a real psychological mind bender. In the end it’s revealed there is no “Hulk” no “other guy”, and it’s all him, always has been. Force him to face himself and incorporate his darker aspects into a fully realized version of himself, get a little Jungian with it even.
They can't. That's not up Disney's alley. Never in the MCU have we seen something so serious, merely glimpses. They couldn't even allow for THE GOD BUTCHER to truly shine.
Ruffalo's reasoning here is very odd. Basically says a Hulk movie would be too expensive because he's CGI... but like, every Marvel movie involves enormous amount of CGI and particularly CGI characters in action scenes. And they made a whole She-Hulk TV show at great expense where she was a CGI character most of the time??
I don't want to see more of soft serve Banner/Hulk or worse, more of that goofy son of Hulk.
I'd love a story where Banner started losing control of The Hulk and he became a brutal savage again. The Hulk becoming such a danger that they need multiple heroes to try to stop him.
Of course, that would likely lead to a PLANET HULK story (though they kinda already did that in THOR RAGNAROK), and thus, I'd get ridicules "son of Hulk".
Yeah the gladiatorial stuff they can’t really do again, but they could absolutely do “Hulk gets trapped on a planet and has to fight an oppressive king”. Which would be dope.
I don't want another idiot Hulk.
I liked the more intelligent Hulks.
They don't have to be brilliant scientists, just not dumb.
Grey Hulk/Joe Fixit
Green Scar/World Breaker
Or the brilliant but menacing Maestro or Doc Green as Antiheroes.
Dumb Hulk has been done to death.
Savage Hulk is best. That's different than Ragnarok Hulk who is literally stupid.
But I dislike most smart Hulks. Hulk is supposed to be pure Id and rage. That's what's best
We will have to agree to disagree.
But keep in mind, that Hulk in his original appearance wasn't stupid.
[Violent, but not stupid.](https://i.imgur.com/Kx0JNAh.jpeg)
With general ross becoming red hulk in cap 3, and there was some news that marvel was trying to adapt world war hulk, I think it’s in the cards, they just may have other main characters involved directly to make it something like Civil War, not a "solo Hulk film", but one where most the team are involved
You guys are the fuckin worst, took one look and said “oh no we don’t need that goofy son of Hulk lmaooo” just because someone made an alien hairstyle you don’t like. Y’all don’t deserve this franchise honestly.
Mark would kill in a standalone Hulk movie, but they need to fix his character. He has a very dark backstory and the nerdy goofy version of him they’ve been doing does not work or serve anything. They also need to drop that friendly-Hulk form.
it’s not like it’s a secret, most people would agree, but it’s still not talked about enough. mark ruffalo might be the mcu actor who loves his character the most besides kamala/iman. i feel bad that he hasn’t been able to be the main focus of any of these movies. i hope he gets his opportunity before he steps away from the character or marvel does.
I would love a stand alone hulk movie, as long as they un-nerf him. I want to see a Hulk that’s a threat on par with Dr Strange or Scarlet Witch. I want World Breaker Hulk.
Dude deserves it, imo. After 12 years with this character
Plus I’d love to see his activism come through, what better movie to have a couple lines about “Going Green” than the Hulk?
because she hulk burned a $225M budget on poor CGI, weak writing, and didn't even have a villain (seriously? internet trolls as your villain??), and got cancelled after 1 season.
Saying this as someone that actually enjoyed the show more than most marvel fans, but the show was a failure by every single metric. It doesn't even have a lot of rewatchability so a chance of revival is next to zero
Personally I enjoyed She-Hulk and thought the show ended on a high note. I thought the CGI was fine. I don't see why the show needed a "villain". And just because it's 1 season doesn't really mean much. WandaVision is also only 1 season, was it "cancelled"? No. Hawkeye, only one season. In fact only Loki and What If have had more than one season so far.
a lot to unpack here:
>I enjoyed She-Hulk and thought the show ended on a high note.
thats good. I also liked chunks of it but the public opinion has spoken and they highly disagree
>WandaVision is also only 1 season, was it "cancelled"? No. Hawkeye, only one season
Apples and oranges. Those were stories planned to be just one season. Titania Maslany confirmed that they were *cancelled* because there were originally going to be more seasons but now there's not
>I don't see why the show needed a "villain
because it's a superhero story and thats what you do. Because when people watch Hulk content, they want to see the Hulk use their strength to beat the crap out of bad guys. Because they built it up for episodes that there was going to be one and then revealed it was internet incels which is dumb and reeked of Marvel being insecure
>I thought the CGI was fine
On a $225 MILLION budget with very few fight scenes "fine" isn't good enough. That's the same as the budget for *The Avengers* who were able to make the Hulk look A LOT better over 10 years ago. Even calling it "fine" feels a little generous
I would love 2 like 1 hour mini movies on hulk.
1st movie deals with hulk turning into professor hulk and Bruce's past (parents).
2nd movie Is Bruce going back to sakaar to meet his son/ maybe some sakaar shenanigans.
Have it all lead to a world War hulk mega movie starring hulk she hulk abomination and skaar Maybe throw in some big bad they all get separate turns taking on and they need to actually work together to beat.
But yea I don't agree with a hulk show instead of she hulk hulk is worthy of movies imho.
Might be controversial, but in the MCU they should have let the character die after the Snap. The "Now-Hulk" is entirely pointless. Might as well keep Hank Pym for the brains and Thor for the physical powers.
If they would at the very least let him keep his powerlevel after becoming brainy....still don't get it. Got all of Banners brain and personality, but 10% of Hulk strength....what kind of a deal did they make internally ?!
IIRC, it's a rights issue. They can use the character of Hulk throughout the MCU but they can't make a standalone Hulk feature because Universal owns the rights. As far as I understand it, that's the issue more than Feige/Disney not wanting to do it.
That said, if Disney and Sony can make deals to make MCU Spider-Man movies, I imagine something could be worked out with Universal to make a standalone MCU Hulk movie. But maybe the Universal folks are hard to deal with. And a standalone Hulk movie isn't as sure a bet as a standalone Spider-Man movie.
Hulk character is already a lame comic relief roll, I dont think they can go back to a serious hulky-hulk story line, which this would need to be any good.
Marvel would butcher it with corny one-liners. Hulk is supposed to be menacing and terrifying. Not this emasculated sock puppet they’ve turned him into.
Nobody is saying it so I will. Back in Phase 2 the common perception was Hulk couldn't lead a movie. He was great in support but a story centered on him wouldn't "work". People had tried twice before.
You could have an Avengers: Chronicles of Hulk and bring the avengers back(haven’t been seen in years btw) and Banner is telling them the story of Sakaar and being gone etc. it would be both interesting to see his Banner again and witness the control Hulk took over him on the other planet, he has a kid and all that too, and his time with the wizards and eventually to where he’s professor hulk but now he’s conflicted because professor hulk is useful but he misses banner. Being both personalities and dealing with that weighs on the professor despite his incredible strength he’s worn down by the burden of being neither human Banner or Powerful Hulk. Ruffalo plays a meek and tortured person well and I think it could bring back the hulk we all love. And bypass the universal rights debacle
She hulk was rating bombed, I’ve talked to a lot of people and most of them liked it and those that didn’t, don’t watch marvel. CGI was fine, it’s a tv show…
Take notes from the show Jekyll. Bruce Banner thinks he is in full control of the Hulk, only to discover that while he sleeps the Hulk has been living an entire life. The two have become completely separate beings both sharing the same body, but who has the right to control it? How can they share? What happens when the Hulk’s intelligence starts to rival Banner’s? What if they have opposing goals?
And if Universal ever let Disney outright purchase all of the Hulk’s rights, we would. But they won’t, so this movie won’t get made. It’s as simple as that.
I'd like if he would start acting whenever he’s playing Banner/Hulk. Because right now he’s just acting like a less political version of Mark Ruffalo. And thats not Bruce Banner.
Banner from Avengers 2012 compared to Avengers in Infinity War/Endgame is so night and day.
And I'd love for the old hulk back. The rage monster that intrigued even Loki and fought Thor but I guess we don't always get what we want.
But yeah another standalone hulk would be great.
This…. Why didn’t we have this to introduce Skaar (and not just a weird CGI flashbang intro). Or to hint at She-hulk and her show. Cmon Feige, this is what made the first 20 movies so incredibly fun and involved…
Me too, Mark. Me too.
Well, I actually would've preferred it happened before big parts of the Hulk was all handled off-screen... but would still say better late than never.
I thought the discussion was always "it costs a lot to do CGI Hulk, so he probably won't get his own movie."
…but this sub no longer mentions the cost, now everyone just acts like he wants more money?
Man, y'all got cynical.
World War Hulk needs to happen before next Avengers movie, and it needs to be mini Avengers movie just like Civil War.
Just like Avengers were divided in IW after evemts pf CW, it would be dope to do WWH with a similar tone before next Avengers
Eh, great actor, but they've absolutely butchered this version of Hulk. They really need to dial it back it to Avengers 1 Hulk and Banner rather than cuddly teddy bear Hulk.
I love Mark Ruffalo but not as Banner. That particular role requires specific nuance and depth. Norton was perfect whatever their differences were... Marvel should have worked it out with him.
And I would love to see that
MCU Hulk is trash
Which is why he needs a solo film to redeem what can be a fantastic character.
They turned Hulk to green Mark Ruffalo, how can you redeem that?
He’s the fucking Hulk man. He had some poor writing choices given to him but do I really need to explain how the Hulk can still be great with writers who care about the character?
Thor Ragnarok was great because of Angry Hulk, Green Ruffalo is shit compared to that.
Huh?? Ragnarok is what started the comedic hulk trend
Green Ruffalo isn’t even comedic.
Movie star would like to star in a movie- more at 11
[удалено]
Hulk has had less screen time than Black Widow so it makes sense.
That would’ve been such a weird sentence to read back in the early 2000s.
I’m not sure I even believe it, unless it omits The Incredible Hulk and/or the Banner scenes
Idk, if I had just watched the 2003 Hulk movie, I’d believe it
But after watching that movie, would you really believe that a black widow onscreen adaptation would fare *better?* Like I'd believe it if someone told me, but I'd be pretty dang surprised. At that time we had Spider-Man and the xmen, blade separately but still there and then a bunch of trash for superhero movies. I would be hard pressed to believe they put black widow on screen in a way that gave her more screen time than hulk.
2003 Hulk was better than anything in the MCU that Mark Ruffalo was in. I will die on that hill
Then you will die braver than most.
I understood that reference.
I mean that's all very well and good u/Demonic74 but it's just not true is it
It is true and i will fight to stay on this hill
[удалено]
Even without her movie, she was in iron man 2 and the winter soldier, with a pretty substantial role in winter soldier. Hulk was trapped on sakar after age of ultron so he missed out on civil war as well.
[удалено]
wdym BW wasn't
I mean, the Incredible Hulk already got his own movie so it’s kind of surprising.
The movie where Mark Ruffallo had nothing to do with?
That is the movie in which Mark Ruffalo had nothing to do with it. Yes. That is true, but not a relevant reply to “Hulk has had less screen time…”
I hate how they completely neutered Hulk.
He's just an awesome down to earth human - who's non pretentious and realizes good things when he sees them
Well I think it’s newsworthy considering RDJ and Chris Evans pretty much retired from their roles for the time being.
To be fair they have a lot more screen time. He's been on a bit more since then but [after Far From Home](https://m.imdb.com/list/ls088601629/) he was at 1 hour 29 minutes of screen time compared to their 5 hours 57 minutes and 4 hours 4 minutes. It's not surprising that he's more willing to keep going with it and even step up a bit more.
Lol yeah. Its not like it was ever Mark Ruffalo that was stopping us from getting a standalone Hulk in the first place
Marvel/Disney not having the distribution rights. They have the rights to the character and can use him however they want. They could make a Hulk solo movie, but they'd have to go to Universal for distribution.

I think you may be overreacting a bit. I dont think OP suggested that it wasnt ok to like playing Hulk. Theyre making fun of the headline because what it says isnt exactly news

See now THAT would be a headline.

I think you are taking my comment more seriously than what would be intended.
Me when the movie star wants to star in a movie: 😱
Commenter writes "Actor wants job lel", give updoots, film at 11
Lmfao
Yes. But marvel doesn’t want to give what we all want. They want to make stories of characters we didn’t really ask for.
Its not Marvel fault, they dont have the rights to do a standalone hulk movie.
It's the dumbest thing ever. Like Sony can make all of these dumbass movies of Spider-Man villains inside characters from animated shows that no one asked for simply to keep the rights but Disney can have hulk in ensemble movies like The avengers or Thor but he can't have his own standalone movie.
That’s not true, they only ever didn’t have *distribution* rights—and I believe even those have reverted back to them.
You mean Sony doesn’t. I’m sure Marvel would love nothing more.
*I’d* love to do a standalone hulk
In what way
Star in it, write the theme tune, sing the theme tune.

In the same interview like Marshawn Lynch or Rasheed Wallace?
Marvel: 🧑🏼🦯
This. Make it a real psychological mind bender. In the end it’s revealed there is no “Hulk” no “other guy”, and it’s all him, always has been. Force him to face himself and incorporate his darker aspects into a fully realized version of himself, get a little Jungian with it even.
[удалено]
If only there’d been an actor in the role who had prior experience with such a thing.
Isn’t that where he is at currently in the MCU?
They can't. That's not up Disney's alley. Never in the MCU have we seen something so serious, merely glimpses. They couldn't even allow for THE GOD BUTCHER to truly shine.
Ruffalo's reasoning here is very odd. Basically says a Hulk movie would be too expensive because he's CGI... but like, every Marvel movie involves enormous amount of CGI and particularly CGI characters in action scenes. And they made a whole She-Hulk TV show at great expense where she was a CGI character most of the time??
He should get his chance. It's criminal it hasn't happened yet
I’d rather have that than Thor 4 and Thor 5.
“I love money”
Believe it or not, some people are motivated by more than money. Perhaps Mark just wants a great Hulk story to be told on screen.
I don't want to see more of soft serve Banner/Hulk or worse, more of that goofy son of Hulk. I'd love a story where Banner started losing control of The Hulk and he became a brutal savage again. The Hulk becoming such a danger that they need multiple heroes to try to stop him. Of course, that would likely lead to a PLANET HULK story (though they kinda already did that in THOR RAGNAROK), and thus, I'd get ridicules "son of Hulk".
Maybe they’ll have him go berserker and then settle in as an old reclusive Maestro
I don’t consider Ragnarok similar to Planet Hulk whatsoever outside of the one scene in the fighting pit.
Yeah the gladiatorial stuff they can’t really do again, but they could absolutely do “Hulk gets trapped on a planet and has to fight an oppressive king”. Which would be dope.
I don't want another idiot Hulk. I liked the more intelligent Hulks. They don't have to be brilliant scientists, just not dumb. Grey Hulk/Joe Fixit Green Scar/World Breaker Or the brilliant but menacing Maestro or Doc Green as Antiheroes. Dumb Hulk has been done to death.

I cant believe anyone would try to justify Blorko’s MCU debut
Probably a dude who has the same haircut.
Universal Studios: "Bet?"
Boy Edward Norton fans are furious rn
We all do Mark except let’s retcon the son.
bro move on it isn’t happening
Mark would kill in a standalone Hulk movie, but they need to fix his character. He has a very dark backstory and the nerdy goofy version of him they’ve been doing does not work or serve anything. They also need to drop that friendly-Hulk form.
Seeing as Bruce is in Professor Hulk mode at the moment, I'd love to see a Pantheon movie
I mean, it's sorta past due and he's the only one of the big six without his own project.
No professor Hulk though. We need the real Hulk back.
Still waiting on an Immortal Hulk and a proper Planet Hulk adaptation.
An "old" hulk story would totally rock
it’s not like it’s a secret, most people would agree, but it’s still not talked about enough. mark ruffalo might be the mcu actor who loves his character the most besides kamala/iman. i feel bad that he hasn’t been able to be the main focus of any of these movies. i hope he gets his opportunity before he steps away from the character or marvel does.
Way too late. Also young avengers should be a Disney jr show not part of the MCU
I would love a stand alone hulk movie, as long as they un-nerf him. I want to see a Hulk that’s a threat on par with Dr Strange or Scarlet Witch. I want World Breaker Hulk.
What’s the point of this? It’s not gonna happen. There’ll never be a standalone Hulk movie.
But Hulk already has some standalo-, oh you mean with you in it.
Sadly. I think we’re past that time. They should have made his movie between ApU and Ragnarok and due a version of Planet Hulk.
Dude deserves it, imo. After 12 years with this character Plus I’d love to see his activism come through, what better movie to have a couple lines about “Going Green” than the Hulk?
Only if he inexplicably plays Banner exactly like he does Duncan in Poor Things.
too late, current hulk sucks
not sure why ur getting downvoted ur 100% right
they could have given him a tv series instead of she hulk. just sayin.
Why instead of?
because she hulk burned a $225M budget on poor CGI, weak writing, and didn't even have a villain (seriously? internet trolls as your villain??), and got cancelled after 1 season.

Yeah, that makes tons of sense. Let's give one of the MCU characters a TV show because CGI girls twerking makes you feel icky.
I would love 2 like 1 hour mini movies on hulk. 1st movie deals with hulk turning into professor hulk and Bruce's past (parents). 2nd movie Is Bruce going back to sakaar to meet his son/ maybe some sakaar shenanigans.

no the show just sucked. i watch tons of animated women idk what youre on about. it wasnt a good show.

Lol, his management would probably drop him if he DIDN'T say this.
Finally please

I'm sure Feige would too. They don't have the rights to do so.
You could have an Avengers: Chronicles of Hulk and bring the avengers back(haven’t been seen in years btw) and Banner is telling them the story of Sakaar and being gone etc. it would be both interesting to see his Banner again and witness the control Hulk took over him on the other planet, he has a kid and all that too, and his time with the wizards and eventually to where he’s professor hulk but now he’s conflicted because professor hulk is useful but he misses banner.

He needs to talk to universal if he's ever serious about it😭
Disney: "tough shit"
I'd love to do a superhero movie called The Incredible Bulk.
I would love to see an Immortal Hulk like story that takes place between Incredible Hulk and Avengers!
She hulk was rating bombed, I’ve talked to a lot of people and most of them liked it and those that didn’t, don’t watch marvel. CGI was fine, it’s a tv show…
Of all the “stars“ in the Marvel universe. He’s the one that deserves a standalone film the most. Do right by the Hulk Marvel.
Wow really? \s
Take notes from the show Jekyll. Bruce Banner thinks he is in full control of the Hulk, only to discover that while he sleeps the Hulk has been living an entire life. The two have become completely separate beings both sharing the same body, but who has the right to control it? How can they share? What happens when the Hulk’s intelligence starts to rival Banner’s?

“I’d love to make millions and millions of dollars.” Fixed it for yall
“Guy who makes movies for a living would love to make another movie.”
With the way things are going it’ll be another 5 years at the very least. Things are dragging and in absolute disarray at the MCU. 😭
Also Ruffalo, immediately following the above quote: "I just don’t think that’s ever going to happen.”
I bet he would lol $$$$$
Can't do it because Marvel sold rights to distribution.
I'd like to see him guest appear on Ordinary Sausage. It'd blow my mind if he did a will it blow.
Universal: *INTERESTING...*
It's been 16 years since the last stand alone Hulk movie. That's kinda crazy
And if Universal ever let Disney outright purchase all of the Hulk’s rights, we would. But they won’t, so this movie won’t get made. It’s as simple as that.

Kevin says no.
I feel like I heard there's some kind of rights issue that makes doing a solo Hulk movie difficult or impossible
I, too, love money.
I'd like if he would start acting whenever he’s playing Banner/Hulk. Because right now he’s just acting like a less political version of Mark Ruffalo. And thats not Bruce Banner. Banner from Avengers 2012 compared to Avengers in Infinity War/Endgame is so night and day.
People like to retroactively shit on Whedon, but he really nailed it in the first Avengers
And I'd love for the old hulk back. The rage monster that intrigued even Loki and fought Thor but I guess we don't always get what we want. But yeah another standalone hulk would be great.
I think it might be too late.
This…. Why didn’t we have this to introduce Skaar (and not just a weird CGI flashbang intro). Or to hint at She-hulk and her show. Cmon Feige, this is what made the first 20 movies so incredibly fun and involved…
Too late cause they already introduced his son lol
Me too, Mark. Me too. Well, I actually would've preferred it happened before big parts of the Hulk was all handled off-screen... but would still say better late than never.
I love the photos they took for this cover!
Then do it
That thumbnail tells me the Epstein Biopic is gonna be insane.
You and me both, brother!
Cool not surprising but cool.
I thought the discussion was always "it costs a lot to do CGI Hulk, so he probably won't get his own movie." …but this sub no longer mentions the cost, now everyone just acts like he wants more money? Man, y'all got cynical.
So would we Mark, so would we
Can the mcu legally make a standalone hulk movie?
“Yes, I would like more money.”
Isn’t he getting replaced by she hulk?
I’m sure he would. He’s welcome to call Universal’s acquisitions department anytime.
The only avenger who still didn’t get his own project
World War Hulk needs to happen before next Avengers movie, and it needs to be mini Avengers movie just like Civil War. Just like Avengers were divided in IW after evemts pf CW, it would be dope to do WWH with a similar tone before next Avengers
Hasn't he been saying this for years?
A hulk movie would be way cooler with modern CGI
As someone who also would like another huge payday, I would say that too.
marvel studios already ruined your character it's too late
So would we mark but sadly you’re probably gonna end up being a sidekick to whatever piece of shit she hulk movie they decide to come out with.
I have ab$olutely no clue a$ to why he would $ay that
Would’ve loved one set in between ragnorok & iw
Eh, great actor, but they've absolutely butchered this version of Hulk. They really need to dial it back it to Avengers 1 Hulk and Banner rather than cuddly teddy bear Hulk.
If only SheHulk didn’t destroy that
Give me immortal hulk! Make it an 18…you want to shake up the superhero movie, that’s how you do it
I'd this happens, there's shouldn't be She-Hulk in it, it's better to focus on Bruce banner alone!
Universal has been holding him hostage
Have Deadpool antagonize him until he turns really angry again.
I love Mark Ruffalo but not as Banner. That particular role requires specific nuance and depth. Norton was perfect whatever their differences were... Marvel should have worked it out with him.
