Incredible Hulk is far from perfect, but the fact that it features the Hulk tearing a squad car in half to make boxing gloves out of it, and seeing said squad car boxing gloves used on the Abomination’s face? I’d say it’s the perfectiest movie so far this year! Also, DOOM is pleased with the movie!

A few notes on the movie:

1. The CGI looks wonky in some scenes, but most of the time, the Hulk’s fuckin’ scary. First time I saw his face? I thought “Now that’s a fuckin’ monster.”
2. I would’ve enjoyed it more if Liv Tyler wasn’t involved. I have a huge crush on her, but I’m not happy with her being Betty Ross. What is it with Movie Betty always being a brunette?!
3. Tim Roth rocks my face. That is all.
4. Kudos to Ed Norton for an awesome portrayal of Bruce Banner. I wouldn’t say he’s perfect for the role, but he didn’t screw it up either.
5. Was it wrong for me to giggle when I saw the “birth” of the Leader?
6. It felt short for me. Not short short. Just… short. Maybe it’s the fast-paced chase nature of the film. I like it.
7. Geekgasms galore: purple pants, sad Incredible Hulk TV show closing credits music, green eyes, Leonard Samson, Bill Bixby, “Don’t make me hungry“, S.H.I.E.L.D., thunderclap, “HULK SMASH!!!”, and Tony fuckin’ Stark. Geeks won’t be disappointed.
8. I stayed after the closing credits, and guess what I saw. NOTHING!
9. I’m thinking Ed Norton’s cut of the movie is way more kickass. Saw several scenes in the trailers that aren’t in the theatrical release.
10. I love the whole “Days without Incident” gag.

This movie had two mammoth tasks:

1. get rid of the bad taste Ang Lee’s Hulk left in our collective movie-watching mouth
2. not look like a footnote to the Iron Man movie

As far as I’m concerned, it accomplished both. Now when’s the announcement of a sequel?
