While The Incredible Hulk may not be your favorite Marvel movie, it might be worth revisiting it soon enough. Still elements of this film are suddenly becoming relevant again, with Tim Roth’s Abomination making a cameo in Shang-Chi and the Legend of the Ten Rings, and Hulk mythology about to get explored further on Disney+ with a She-Hulk series. Star Ed Norton ultimately departed the role of Bruce Banner after this film (to be replaced by the now ubiquitous Mark Ruffalo), making it feel even more like a relic of another era.
The second film in the Marvel Cinematic Universe was the first to hint at even wider connections to come in a profound way, with our first hints of Captain America and the super soldier serum, the connections to Tony Stark, and more. The Incredible Hulk is virtually a forgotten MCU entry. It’s a stepping stone to far greater things for this corner of the MCU, but that’s about all.
CAPTAIN AMERICA CIVIL WAR 2 WINNER MOVIE
There are shadows of what this movie could have been peeking through, but ultimately it feels a little forgettable after Thor’s triumphant turn in the previous year’s Avengers. Thor: The Dark World made some good decisions, notably in how much of the action it set in an appropriately comic book-y version of Asgard and its use of a villain (Malekith the Accursed, played by Christopher Eccleston) from Walt Simonson’s all-time great Marvel Comics run.
