Okay, after seeing The Hulk, I shall give my unprofessional review to help shed some light on this "battle" between the Hulk and Gollum. (NOTE: some spoilers for those wanting to see The Hulk...)<P> <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR> Although that one scene in the desert where he's sliding around in the sand was horrible. <HR></BLOCKQUOTE><BR>I completely agree with Shy Hobbit on this. Have you ever seen those videos of astronauts on the moon bouncing really high because of the lack of gravity? Picture the Hulk jumping like that, only like 1000 feet higher along the Grand Canyon, as if Arizona's just a big trampoline.<BR>The Hulk does sweat, and he does get dirty and sandy. But bullets <B>literally</B> bounce off of him. That annoyed me somewhat.<BR> <BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR> the mutant dogs reminded me of PJ's wargs as well <HR></BLOCKQUOTE><BR>Yes, the mutant dogs were vicious like the wargs, but if you have a dog (which I suspect many of you do), then you would immediately notice that of the three dogs only the poodle looked like what a real poodle would look like with green glowing eyes. The two pitbulls were barely close to resembling any sort of dog. For those of you who have seen Finding Nemo (which I love ) the pitbulls looked more like Bruce the shark than like dogs.<BR>The thing that ticked me off the most was the fact that when he flexed his muscles, he didn't flex them. What I mean by this is thatwhen the Hulk flexed his muscles, they didn't change. He didn't have to bother flexing his muscles since they didn't move at all! The only muscle moving I saw was when he breathed. <BR>HA! Gollum doesn't interact with his environment? When the Hulk did his moon jumps, a little puff of sand and dust and some pebbles would fly up, unless he landed on some concrete. You call that interacting? Hardly.<P>Sorry my rant was so long, but I obviously didn't like this movie, for other reasons than the Hulk being noticeably CG. I know some of you are thinking "Shut up, it's supposed to look cartoony since it's based on a comic book", but I don't care, since I'm in one of my mindless ramblings. I apologize if I've offended any Hulk fans out there on the Downs, and please don't hunt me down and gut me like a fish. All in all, I realize the Hulk is a comic book character. I really don't mind the fact that he's bright green, but he isn't even worthy enough to hold a stick to Gollum when it comes to "interacting with his environment" and detail. Gollum is a believably real character that you can practically forget that he's a CGI, and the Hulk is a believably real giant green guy who seriously needs anger management. Thank you if you read all the way through my senseless rant, and good luck understanding it.
