Hulk Hate Puny Movies, And The Feeling Is Mutual
Ed Norton's favorite gamma-powered man-monster may be set to take on an important role in 2011's The Avengers movie, but don't expect to see a Hulk 2 anytime soon. That's according to Marvel Studios president Kevin Feige, who's continuing the ongoing tease that it'll be the Hulk that causes the formation of Marvel's premiere superhero team in The Avengers. But he admits that no sequel to this summer's underwhelming Hulk movie - out today on DVD - is currently being planned. With two failed movies in the last five years, we're wondering whether Marvel will give up trying to make us love the Hulk? More » -

Post-Traumatic Stress Makes Hulks Out Of All Of Us
Bruce Banner, the Incredible Hulk's alter-ego, suffers from terrible post-traumatic stress disorder in the new Hulk movie. There are a few scenes of Banner freaking out in the bathtub as he remembers the violence of the military's latest attempt to capture him. You can't even get close to Bruce Banner (Edward Norton), because he's so wound up with his trauma. Flashes of guns and fists. But in the end, the movie suggests, Bruce's PTSD is a by-product of his struggle to hold onto his humanity, to avoid becoming the ultimate killing machine. Spoilers ahead. More »
