<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR> ... he does indeed look way too cartoonish! <HR></BLOCKQUOTE><P>To be fair, the Hulk is based on a cartoon character, so that may well be intentional. Quite often, films such as this which have their roots in comic books are deliberately given a "comic book" feel to them. In the LotR films, on the other hand, realism is key to captivating the audience and making them believe in the events portrayed. So Gollum's movements and facial expressions had to be just as true to life as those of the "real" actors in order for him to be a believable character. And Serkis, Jackson and the SFX team certainly achieved that. With bells on.
