Hulk goes grey?

From dark horizons, "When you think 'The Hulk' you tend to think of a big, green, muscled meanie.

Well not anymore.

At the "Spiderman 3" junket this past weekend, producer Avi Arad hinted to Collider that the superhero may have a somewhat desaturated look.


When asked about the rumours of a grey Hulk, Arad said "WeÕll see, I donÕt know."Will they be using any of the visual effects developed for the first film? "None. No. It's a new Hulk, new direction, new size, new color, new attitude. Anything that was done before is not in this movie. It's a very different kind of Hulk."



So what kind of Hulk is it?



"It's more of a love story; it's more of a heroic Hulk. It's a kind of Hulk we loved in the show, so it's kind of more influenced by the show than anything else. It's very human, very touching, and huge action. Louis Leterrier has a unique filming style that will be great here and it's going to be spectacular."Meanwhile Hollywood Grind is indicating that Jessica Biel has joined the cast."

Sounds like Poochie.

So The Hulk did well enough to justify a sequel and yet was disliked enough to warrant replacing every single element of the first movie?

That's weird.

I wish more bad movies got "do-overs" like this. It's a great system. "It kind of sucked, so, rather than a sequel, let's just start over and do it again, but let's get it right this time."

You know what I mean? When was the last time they made a sequel and tried to reassure us that as few as possible (as opposed to "as many as possible") components of the original would be there?

Okay, Star Trek VI. But that's a bad example because it's an established series with a box office record.

Maybe Lucas can make the prequel trilogy again.
