The guy eating the pizza in the lab is the same actor who plays one of Peter Parker's teachers in Spider-Man. So, theoretically it could be the same character when he was in college.
It’s been confirmed that is the same character. Pretty cool!
@@MrGeoff-iv6re By Kevin Feige
All emotions are real, whether they're caused by personal experience, or fictional story.
You are right, and that's why film is so important. It allows us to exercise those emotions outside of our day-to-day lives. ❤
I have watched at least a half a dozen reactors watch this movie. you are the ONLY one to catch Lou and know who he was. RESPECT.
Loooove big ole Lou!
@@CristyReacts The nerdy guy eating pizza in the computer lab is ALSO one of Peter Parker's teachers in the Tom Holland Spider-Man films, and that's been confirmed by Kevin Feige. The actor's name is Martin Starr.
I love the fact that you knew who Lou Ferigno is, and I also would do anything for pizza 🍕
I prefer Brooklyn style, thin crust, large slice, just cheese, with crushed red pepper:) you?
@CristyReacts just the opposite.
Deep-dish Chicago style...
I'm pretty sure Banner was being paid "under the table" by the bottling plant manager, but he didn't want to be on the official payroll as that would have been traceable by General Ross.
Another great review!
When you said, "he's so fast" that was the Blonski Run. We had wires suspended across the park hooked to Blonski so he was moving close to 40kmh (25mph) with the tips of his feet barely touching the ground as he skimmed above it! The Humvee that rolled over soon after was not supposed to. The park was muddy and the front left wheel dug in catapulting the vehicle as seen. The roof gunner was lucky not to be crushed. I was 15-20 ft away and watched as his contortions and centrifugal force sucked him back into the vehicle instead of spitting him out. Very lucky.
The helicopter crash was shot on three different sets and had another set devoted solely to the largest explosion ever done in Toronto, not to mention the CGI interspersed!
The best part of working on the movie was working with Tim Roth. I worked next to him for a good part of the film. He has an amazing presence! We only chatted briefly but I brought him a LOT of coffee! Not my department but I happily took on the task of keeping him supplied!
Watching with you made the movie much better than I remembered it being. Lolz ... I might have been a bit biased when I first watched as that production left a bitter taste in my mouth for a while.
Thanks again for another great review!
Cristy, a couple of things. Mr. Blue was supposed to become Hulk's archenemy from the comics, The Leader who possessed super intellect. but the sequel never came about. Stan Lee had a affinity for the Frankenstein monster, and wound up combining him with Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde to create The Incredible Hulk. You covered all the bases in this one, you'll be full-fledged Marvelite in no time!! 😃
Oh interesting!!! I am surprised every day by the facts I learn about Marvel, and I'm definitely on my way to becoming a Marvelite haha!
@@CristyReacts The Leader was an interesting twist on the Hulk: Hulk becomes super-strong, while the Leader becomes super-smart. You notice that the blood is dripping into his brain.
Update: a script INCLUDING The Leader is in development. The MCU rumor mill's money seems to be on him appearing in The Thunderbolts, which is on the official MCU release calendar.
@@tommc4916 That would be cool! I hope it's the same actor.
@@PhilBagels Agree. I really liked Tim Blake Nelson in that part, and I generally like his other work as well. 👍
14:10 "What is this... energetic... magnetic... _field..._ waves?"
😄 Those are a specific type of sonic cannon, called Long-Range Acoustic Devices. They really exist. These are weapons designed to use sound to _injure_ or _incapacitate_ someone. Of course, this is the first time anyone's tried them on the _Hulk._
They were also designed by Stark Industries… I just wonder if that was something made before he shut down the weapons manufacturing or after, as a non lethal alternative?
Just as a note for understanding the Hulk a little, in comparison to the Abomination, is that even though the Hulk is smaller than him and base level weaker, Hulk gets stronger the angrier he gets. So, it's been said that there is theoretically no limit to how strong he can get. The Abomination doesn't get stronger the angrier he gets.
The after credit scene was Tony at the bar talking to the General. Blonsky is the Abomination.
Low iq
Emil Blonsky/Abomination appears briefly in Shang-Chi and is a recurring character in the She-Hulk series. I don't want to give away too much, but he actually gets a *sympathetic* portrayal in She-Hulk.
13:43 back in the 60’s when the comic book Hulk was out the government was giving Stan a hard time about Hulk because the U.S. army was the enemy most of the issues
If you look back at the beginning of the movie you will see Bill Bixby on the television he is flipping through. They gave him his props even though he has passed on. Him and Lou is always gonna be the first version of the Hulk I saw
The things they were injecting into Blonski were not to make them into the hulk, it was a copy of the super soldier serum. What made Captain America?.
Just am watching now and wanted to put your mind at ease, his dog, in the beginning, was just tranqed. They were using tranquilizers 'cause they wanted to capture Bruce. So, the dog probably woke up later with a headache (as they say). I don't know 'cause I've never been tranqed.
13:32 - Speaking of swinging…. Am I the only one who wonders what he’s packing downstairs, and how those shorts contain it?
Betty didn't want Bruce to become a murderer, so that's why she yelled at the Hulk to stop. Hulk has killed people, but mostly through collateral damage of his rage. It's usually not intentional. But, through the years, he has killed some intentionally. This is early on though.
Great reaction! Really enjoying watching you discover the MCU. I don't know if you know, but this movie is a little bit of the "black sheep" of the MCU (or at least it used to be) because there were many changes after it came out (like Ed Norton being replaced by Mark Ruffalo). As a result, the movie is pretty underrated, but it's actually very good!
Thanks Adam! Yeah, I wonder why they made that change. I think Edward Norton was a great Hulk (although I'm excited to see Ruffalo in this kind of role, to be honest.)
It was supposedly because Ed Norton had changed the script and changed scenes when it was shot and Marvel Studios did not like it. Ed Norton is on the record that he did not like being able to add any creativity to the movie. It sounds bad from his perspective, but to be honest, it is fair from what Marvel Studios was trying to accomplish at the time. They were a brand new studio with immense pressure to succeed because of all the financing they received. Kevin Feige was(and still is) head of Marvel Studios and had mapped out the whole universe and where they wanted it to go and how they needed characters to fill in(He was part of the early Spiderman films at Sony and X-Men Films at fox, mostly just learning under leadership how to run a studio. Kevin Feige himself is an avid comic book fan and got the chance to break a way and create Marvel Studios and wanted to create the MCU. He needed everything to go right and there couldn't' be any box office failures or anything slowing down production, not just for his sake, but for the Studio) Simply put though, it was just do to "creative differences" which happens sometimes in business. I still loved the movie and I honestly think Mark Ruffalo did amazing rest of the way. @CristyReacts
8:40 Phil Dunphy: "Dance 'til your feet hurt. Sing 'til your lungs hurt. _Act_ 'til you're _William_ Hurt."
Calling him an Abomination is so awesome!
10:50 - Lou Ferrigno cameos early in the first (2003) Hulk movie as well; also as a security guard with Stan Lee as his supervisor.
When I first saw this movie, I thought it was a sequel to a movie that came out in 2003, just called _Hulk._ That movie's supposed to actually _chronicle_ Hulk's origin. The CGI is _much_ rougher. The movie, overall, is _terrible,_ and it kind of annoys me to say that, because Jennifer Connelly's in it and I'm a fan of hers. She deserved better.
I'm glad they started the canon over again with _this_ one, though.
First! Such a great movie for Hulk and good adaptation. I think general consensus it is a good movie and definitely helped move forward not only the MCU, but the comic book genre as a whole. What tv shows do you plan to react to?
Hi Michael:) Someone suggested that I do The Sopranos and Breaking Bad. Have you ever watched them? I love the idea of watching a TV show, especially because of the amount of content there is, and the continuity of the series. Do you have a favorite TV show to recommend?
Both are very good shows and would recommend to watch. I loved Breaking Bad a lot more, but either way both very good shows. Breaking Bad honestly probably got me into watching long series because I had mostly watched only movies because nothing caught my attention at a young age. Honestly there really are way too many good shows out there which is good lol, I would probably have to send another list and depends what type of shows you are into or wanting to give a shot. "Arcane" on Netflix is a great little series (9 episodes) and good introduction into anime genre and action. I tell most people I know that "This Is Us" on Hulu might be one of the best shows of all time, well written, great actors and story. I've rarely seen any channels have reactions on it. Can never go wrong with "The Office", just know the first season is rough. I could literally go on, but you'll definitely have ton of content when you start a series since they are so long.@@CristyReacts
Sopranos and Breaking Bad are #3 and #1 on my all time list. #2 is The Wire. I'd also recommend The Expanse and Battlestar Galactica if you like science fiction.
8:38 General Ross committed a _major_ faux pas, sending these guys to apprehend Banner _without_ telling them about the Hulk.
10:34 "Is that Lou Ferrigno? _Shut_ the _front door!"_
😆😆😆 That line comes _later_ in the canon.
Great reaction. There was Hulk movie (and origin) directed by Ang Lee just 5 years earlier which is not part of the "official" MCU, so that's why they went for the basic origin story during the opening credits. I think Edward Norton is excellent as Banner. I love the way that drunk General Ross is drinking Green cocktails at the end of the movie.
Yes I heard about the Ang Lee movie, and I'm now wondering if I should watch it.
PS. do you prefer Norton over Ruffalo?
Hi Cristy - I think both are very good, but give different interpretations. At a pinch I would say Norton for the physicality and anguish, and Ruffalo for humour and intelligence.
@@CristyReacts
@@andrewroberts9885 interesting! Although i prefer Norton as an overall actor, I see more of Ruffalo in the Hulk. It’s an unpopular opinion but I’ll go with Mark Ruffalo on this one.
@@CristyReacts - I think the first Hulk movie (while not as good as the MCU films) is worthwhile seeing, as it will fill in many holes in Hulk's origin story; especially the romantic sub-plot you see in Hulk's MCU film.
Yeah, this is basically a soft reboot/ sequel to the 2003 Hulk. The changed a bunch of details, so it lines up with the overall MCU. That's why the intro uses clips , which are "similar" to scenes from the Ang Lee version.
The Hulk can leap two miles at a time.
That's how he ended up in Guatemala.
15:51 😄Oh, yeah. _Just_ what you want to wear if you're trying to keep a low profile.
ENERGETIC... MAGNETIC... FIELD... WAVES!!!
🤣
🤣🤣🤣
Or ya know, sonic blast...
Lou Ferrigno actually has a cameo in this one as a security guard at Culver University.
So no spoilers but the best piece of advice I can give you from The Incredible Hulk is take a note of the main supporting characters because a lot of them come back in future Marvel movies but not until Phase 3 and 4 so they're off the board for a long while. 15/16 movies worth. So just something to keep in mind.
btw in the after credits scene the general is drinking an "Incredible Hulk" drink
oh cool! haha I didn't notice it
@@CristyReacts yep. Just found your channel last night and went through the few MCU movies you've watched so far.
Always nice to find a new channel watching the MCU! 😸
You need to see the 2003 "The Hulk", will give you the full back story.
Sadly, they never do anything with Mr. Blue turning into The Leader. Blonsky's Abomination is quite convincing, thought.
6:29 Relax, Cristy. It was just a tranquilizer dart.
Fun reaction!
"Bad Hulk" is an Abomination.
I think I like my name better ;) Hulk vs. Bad Hulk! Just kidding (this is why I don't write movies!)
@@CristyReacts sadly, there are other Hulks in the comics... Red Hulk for example. So we need to keep the number of hulks to a minimum... 🤫
6:20-6:22 I will point out, they came in with tranquilizer darts, so they sedated the dog, that wasn't a bullet. You did catch up with that by 6:42, but from your reaction, I had to say it.
Stan Lee's character went to the hospital with Gamma Radiation Poisoning. Bruce can absorb, and has absorbed immense amounts of Gamma Radiation. He doesn't want to turn into The Hulk, because, he can remember what The Hulk does, but he doesn't have any real control of The Hulk. The Hulk is fueled by emotions, and reacts on emotions. At the early part of dealing with this, anger was the one emotion that The Hulk channeled.
12:20-12:25 sharing a bed might not be a good idea... As far as he knows, the key to keeping The Hulk contained is centered around his heart rate as the only physical measure he has. She was your first girl crush. Are you confident that if you, in that moment, loved her, missed her, and actually went a little further, would it be safe for her? I mean 1. If he turns into The Hulk, he has no control. 2. If he turns into The Hulk, he's going to be at least twice his current size in every dimension, and 3. If a drop of his blood can send someone to the hospital with gamma radiation poisoning, what of other bodily fluids?
14:12-14:18 Sonic wave, super compressed sound. Sound waves move through all forms of matter, liquids, gasses and solids. The theory being since they will transition from the air into his flesh, they don't have to breach his flesh to affect him.
15:00-15:10 the first emotion strong enough to influence The Hulk aside from anger shows its self.
Mr. Blue was supposed to become the comic book arch nemesis of The Hulk, but that didn't pan out as they enveloped the character into the greater Marvel Cinematic Universe [MCU] as he just didn't fit. Remember though, Mr. Blue had only as small sample of blood, so he had to make more. The process of making more, outside of Bruce, likely affected the original DNA in the blood sample.
While The Hulk may be more aware of his capabilities, remember he's a scientist, and in this case, desperate to protect people deep inside, but there are limits to the influence of that in him. Blonski on the other hand, is more 'cognizant' he recognized Hulk and said his name, and his background is a soldier often used for "dark, sometimes off the books tasks"
Hulk is clearly green. Abomination is more greyish. Though I do think "Help the skin one, cut the bone crusty one in half" would have been much clearer.
no wait cause why when i first went bact to rewatch this movie i though the same thing "like hey thats Phil Dunphy" lol
Ricardo, we’re not talking about Phil Coulson.
I'll only watch this as you are reviewing it and it should be funny for me to see it through another's eyes!
I worked in Film Production for over 15 years. Specifically to this review, I was a Production Assistant in the Locations department on The Incredible Hulk. The movie was 40 days over the shooting schedule and had blown its mind bending budget out of the water. Edward Norton and Marvel were not playing well with each other, lolz! By the time we were done most of the crew were sick of each other with a couple touches of hate mixed in. Marvel had planned to do a series of productions here in Toronto, but after this disaster we never saw them here again.
The best part of working on this film was that I was on second unit. We did all of the stunts, crashes, gunfire and explosions!
I only watched the movie once after we were done. I thought it was long, slow, had a lame ending and they still couldn't get his hair right.
My face is sticking out low in the bush during the Blonski Run for about two frames! I'll try to catch it again!
I'll comment again after I watch!
💚 Great reaction,you got a new sub from me.
Thanks David! Exited to have you here:)
I loved that music video also crushed hard
6:39 This doesn't make sense, though. Dr. Banner is on the run, at night, from people trained at tracking, and he's wearing a red hooded sweatshirt? Read up on the psychology of color, some time. Red is a color that _instinctively_ draws human _attention._ Unless he was planning to hide in a place where it's ubiquitous, it makes _no_ sense as a garment to wear while he's trying to escape.
Yay! The OGMCU is a great jouney. I'm gonna go through your reactions as they happen. 💚
13:41 The only thing these guys are succeeding in _doing,_ right now, is pissing him _off!_
And we saw 'Mr. Blue' begin to turn into the villain known as The Leader
oooh that makes sense! No spoilers plz!
@@CristyReacts No problem! Not saying anything about when or where we might see him again. But we saw him changing and from the comics we know that Dr. Samuel Stern is the real name of the Leader.
And for that matter, Betty's new love interest, Dr. Leonard Samson, is also known to comics fans as another gamma powered hero, Doc Samson, who heroes as a kind of a side gig, when he's not serving as kind of a shrink to the superheroes. So who knows what might be in store for him?
Personally I'd prefer no casting reveals pls! I'd like to experience these movies as fresh as possible :)
Another amazing reaction, well done
22:12 "You don't _deserve_ this _power!"_
I'm unable to relate to this character. I mean, by turning into the Hulk, Banner gained the ability to kick some serious _ass,_ but he gave _up_ his ability to be _intimate._ It _baffles_ me that such is a trade Emil _wants._
Underrated movie!
Love your chill vibe.
Recommending the film
“True Romance” (1993)
You will love this film!!
Oohh thanks @KrazyKat007🤩 Adding True Romance to the list asap!!
Great movie.
Great recommendation.
Thanks, Kat! @@CristyReacts
Hello 😆. The human counter part from og Hulk tv show also made an appearance, in a movie Bruce was watching.
IMO, any MCU viewing order list should include the Marvel One Shots.
Marvel One Shot: The Consultant should follow immediately after The Incredible Hulk.
Marvel One Shot: A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to Thor's Hammer should follow right after Iron Man 2.
Marvel One Shot: Agent Carter should follow Captain America: The First Avenger. (*)
Marvel One Shot: Item 47 should follow The Avengers.
and Marvel One Shot: All Hail the King should follow Iron Man 3.
There are a couple more but I never cared for them.
(*) Since the Agent Carter T.V. series isn't considered canon this One Shot fits into the MCU.
I watched em! th-cam.com/video/orUvCt_qflU/w-d-xo.html
Starting mcu reacts 👐 hello from são Paulo 🇧🇷
Sound waves.
Not energetic, magnetic waves.
There’s another Hulk movie before this one and it’s more of an origin story2:06
24:01 This part puzzles me as well. I mean, does this mean Banner has figured out how to _control_ it?
Boondocks season 1 episode 1
Good reaction Cristy. Btw I'm former Navy Special Warfare and I could possibly get in trouble for divulging this publicly, but I'm not too worried. To answer your question, as to if the US government/military is attempting to develop "super soldiers" the answer is YES, since the 1960's in fact. As far as I know, and I certainly don't have all the knowledge because im sure its a top top secret scenario, but there hasn't been much success. I do know however that several government defense contractors have developed military grade performance enhancers. What us essentially a super steroid. Also there is aggressive research in the area of genetic engineering. I've been out of the Navy for over 20 years though so for all I know there could be viable "bio tech enhancement" now. The department of defense is very shady and covert. As they say truth is often stranger than fiction so for all we know there could be a "super soldier serum" in existence. The one thing I'm certain of with the US government via the dept of defense is any way to get an edge on our adversaries you can bet qe are have done or are diligently working on
Her: is this the movie??
Me:😑
Hi I’m new here
Hi Wallace, me too!
Please don't censor it
Good Looking Biceps Cristy 👏👏Are You up for an Armwrestle?💪
So why'd you choose white as your background for this movie? 😉
I didn’t have my color light yet!
@CristyReacts I know lol, I'm watching out of order ❤️
Pls watch primal fear ( 1996 )
Its a great movie.
Primal Fear, added to the list! Thanks @zaidshaikh9421
Nice reaction. Would also suggest you the first Hulk from 2003.
Oh cool-- yeah I'm watching other superhero movies outside of MCU as well. Just watched The Batman (2022) and loved it. So I'll definitely check out the first Hulk. Thanks for the rec:)
@@CristyReactsyes pls do react to 2003's hulk u will definitely luv it
yo quiero saber porque sabes espanol >_>
Porque soy colombiana!
NO WAY! that's awesome! @@CristyReacts
So... this one is generally considered on of the "bad" marvel movies. The reality is that doesn't mean it is bad. It is better to look at this as a 'low point' movie. If you find it fun and enjoyed yourself, then you are probably going to like the MCU as a whole.
The next thing you need to be aware of is casting changes. There is really only two bigs ones you need to worry about (most people don't even notice the others they are so minor). The first is in the next movie Tony's best friend Rhodey is changed from Terrance Howard to Don Cheadle. They make a funny little line out of his first appearance. The next is changing Bruce Banner to Mark Ruffalow next time you see him in the MCU (this is the last stand alone Hulk movie for now due to distribution contracts and Marvel wanting to be the ones profiting on their own success).
In both cases I feel like the current actor is better in the role (both replaced actors are great actors, I just like the current person in the role better). But it does take some getting used to. By the end of a movie I was good with the change. Will be interesting to see if you agree.
Thanks for the heads up! I just watched Iron Man 2 (video posting this Thursday) and noticed the casting change immediately. And I'd heard about the Ruffalo switch.
And someone else had told me this was one of the "low points" but I really enjoyed it! So I'm excited for what's to come :)
Crazy I never heard this until recently
Bill Bixby turned into the Hulk and Lou was the Hulk?
Solid point! I meant that Lou Ferrigno looked convincingly like the Hulk without the need for CGI... but I should've shouted out Bill Bixby as well!
@@CristyReacts Banner isn’t supposed to be intimidating he is supposed to look exactly how they portrayed him. Bill had a cameo in the beginning of the movie. He was on TV when Banner was watching Sesame Street
@@CristyReactsEspecially since we get a quick glimpse of old Bill. At one point on the screen we see a bit of a TV show called The Courtship of Eddie's Father, starring Bill Bixby
Why do all youtube reactors start with "The Incredible Hulk"???? It's not the first Hulk movie!!!! He's Origin is told with the movie "Hulk" from 2003 with Eric Bana!!!
the other Hulk movie was better. this one is garbage
