Planet Hulk (2010 Video)
9/10
Marvel Animations "GET IT"! Big Screen Hulk Movies "ARE LOST"!
3 February 2010
I wasn't sure if i would like the somewhat-more intelligent sounding hulk vs my good old one-syllable brute.... but it works really really well and the jump is subtle and done believably well and within context of the old green brute.

As a big hulk fan but not a hard core comic fanatic i loved this DVD. Actually I liked it much more than the "Hulk VS" which i thought were well done as well.

I never followed the Planet-Hulk comics too closely and while glancing at covers was wondering what was going on but now i know and I'm glad i got to experience it from a fresh perspective.

Fantastic characters and character development(I loved this new world).... I would have preferred the Silver Surfer being free'd like the comics... just because i like the idea of him and Hulk as a team... i think their chemistry works in a very unique way.... but the substitution in this animation movie was suitable and didn't take anything away.

Lots of Hulk fighting while developing a very nice story and some very interesting characters...(mainly his lady friend).

I like how the Hulk after being exiled from Earth is overcoming his resentment of mankind and slowly starting to care about other beings again.

This reinforces the development of the slow/hesitant/misunderstood big hearted hero he is and becomes in this movie. This along with many other things is what the movies never capture...

This DVD has some great battles that truly show you that Hulk is the man in the Marvel universe.

I just wish they would have included one feat of strength or at least one clear example of strength growing proportional to rage. There are implied amazing scenes but nothing in your face like I would have preferred. Like Hulk VS... this movie doesn't have any issues about shedding some blood including the Hulk's and I like it now as i did in Hulk VS.

If you liked Hulk VS I think you will love this SAGA even better as it is a much more cohesive story... I would love to see more following this story line.

It has plenty of Meat and Potato(SMASH)... but also some nice delicious sides to balance out the meal...

Well DONE!!! Very Well DONE!!!

So When is someone going to get it right on the big screen?

I mean both big screen hulk movies have some good qualities but too bad neither of them capture story or action that remotely compares to the brilliant Marvel animation productions.

Don't make me whip out my movie script!!!
