This trailer is slightly better but I have a feeling it's because the South America sequence is going to be very good. The rest of the movie and the climax doesn't seem to be that good.

I'll probably end up seeing this, but I may not.

New trailer looks a lot better. This should have been the first trailer released. Putting out that crappy teaser only gave people something to bitch about instead of something to laud. Hulk still looks a bit shoddy in the CG dept, but I'm hoping they fix that up before it hits.

I liked the 1st one, but I think you're right about that.

While the new trailer is better it still has that 'been there done that' vibe. Hulk vs. the military? vs. a tank? vs. a helicopter? Yeah, we've seen all that before.

Yeah but I think it would be difficult to have The Hulk and not have those elements.

And that is the problem with 'The Hulk' as a franchise. There isn't a lot you can do on his own, without the whole "been there, done that" feeling.

The new trailer was a lot better, but I'm still not sold on it. Something about it just feels small, incomplete. Maybe it is because Iron Man, The Dark Knight and Indiana Jones all have the possibility of feeling "epic" in a certain sense.

I'll be there to see it, I just won't be there opening night, as I did with Iron Man and as I will do with the other movies I've mentioned in this post.

Really? I think this time the CG Hulk looks great; it has mass and texture, looks more detailed and realistic skin tones. I felt Ang Lee's was too gummy-looking, like you could take a pin and pop him.

I do expect this to be good. I do believe a sequel might not be a possibility, but he'll be in the Avengers movie.

I didn't think this movie looked too good, in either trailer.

That said, the quick cut TV ads actually make it look fairly entertaining. We'll see.

But the CGI Hulk just doesn't look that convincing as a real character interacting with "reality" on the big screen. I guess this is as good as we'll get for a CGI Hulk on film.
First post in quite a while. Agreed! The hulk doesn't look convincing at all in this film. Plastic and fake. The film looks better, but the hulk in the first film was far better and far more convincing as a living, breathing creature.

But you haven't seen The Hulk fight The Abomination before! Not on the big screen!

That was always the epic battle that Hulk comic fans wanted to see every year or so. And we wanted it to be a 2 or 3 issue story.

And this trailer looks MUCH better than the first one, IMO. This movie looks like a much more straightforward action movie than Ang Lee's psychological study of Banner and the Hulk.

And this time the CGI improved between trailers, I don't recall that being the case with Lee's movie. It looked fairly weak in the original trailer, and never visibly improved.

I'm really getting excited about this one.

The new Hulk looks more fake than the first one! What's Ferrigno doing? These guys need to call him quick and do some re-filming.

IGN has an exclusive clip of the fight between Emil Blonsky and the big green guy. Looks great.

CG looks fake, but it wouldn't be laughed off the screen as quickly as a big guy in green makeup would in this day and age.

That's already about fifteen times cooler than the first movie.
