The hulk - Trailer

[Arthur Dent]

But the movie itself will probably suck ass. The guy that's playing the Hulk, I can't remember his name right now, but I've seen him in other stuff. I recognized him, but I don't recall anything big he's done.

His name is Eric Bana. He's Austrailian and been in films like Black Hawk Down.

I'm glad it's a relatively unknown actor. I get sick of seeing familiar faces. Instead of seeing the character, you see the actor.

And the movie is directed by Ang Lee who did Crouching Tiger. Excellent Hong Kong director. I've read interviews with him where he discusses his interpretation of the Hulk. Very good grasp of the material. He talks about the Hulk as a man's struggle against his own anger and inner-demon. Talks about Banner as a scientist with a bad tempor forced to learn how to control it with disasterous results. All sounds good to me.

Just hope they end the film with the "Sad walking away music". :-)
