All those references are to The Incredible Hulk with Edward Norton, not Hulk with Eric Bama.AliasMan02 said:Lucky #007 said:We added the Hulk the other night which was the only one we didn't have and hadn't seen. I now understand why Marvel more or less pretends it never happened.Brick Tamland said:
Nice. Pre ordered it immediately after seeing it. Still working on my Marvel digital catalog.
They reference Hulk more than you think. Not a ton, but little nods. Ross being Secretary of State in Civil War and Infinity War is the big one. Banner talks about "breaking Harlem" in Avengers. The actual Harlem fight is seen and referenced in Iron Man 2. And War Machine uses the Sonic cannons used against Hulk during the airport fight in Civil War at least, and maybe other times. I wanna say it gets mentioned in Thor as well as part of "Fury's big week."
I was talking about the Ed Norton movie. I knew those small references were here and there. Everybody pretends the other version never happened.

The older Bana version didn't happen. It's not MCU.
I understand that. Might have used the wrong movie title in my original post. I was never talking about the Bana version.AliasMan02 said:Lucky #007 said:

A few things I haven't seen discussed much on this thread.
1.) The music was great- and was more memorable than previous Marevl films.
As we pan away from Strange as he tells them the odds of the team winning- wow. Thanos' theme was great.
2.) For those that watched the trailer 20+ times- it was chilling to have Thanos' "I know what it's like to lose. To feel so desperately that you're right...dread it. Run from it. Destiny still arrives"- line in the very first scene- basically the first words out of his mouth.

My bad. The wrong title and reference to pretending like it never happened made me think you were talking the Bana one.Lucky #007 said:I understand that. Might have used the wrong movie title in my original post. I was never talking about the Bana version.AliasMan02 said:Lucky #007 said:

No worries. I got the title wrong.
The music had a fair amount of Captain America -The First Avenger in it. Along with the original Avengers and that first Cap movie, this is the best Marvel score.fightinags2013 said:

They were all scored by Alan Silvestri (back to the future)
I've seen it twice and musically my favorite moment was when the Guardians showed up to "Rubberband Man". The Russo's did a great job of mixing in the different vibes for the different groups.
Yeah, I neglected to say who scored them. Silvestri is also known for having done Predator and Who Framed Roger Rabbit.
I'd like to see a complete MCU classic rock play list. They have worked in some great songs into the movies.

I saw Black Panther last night for the first time, which I really enjoyed by the way. Relating that to IW, one of the only things that kind of bothered me about it was the battle at Wakanda. All of that technology the Wakanda people have and they show up to fight with spears. I get it, the spears are made of Vibranium but who kicked the most ass in that fight? War Machine and to a lesser extent, Banner in the Hulk Buster suit. And it's not even close. At least until Thor arrived. I mean, what is Wakanda even thinking here? I know they're hardcore traditionalists in their culture and customs but build a few tanks, some cluster bombs, anything.
They're a secret country. The only war they ever had was between tribes and overall it was relatively peaceful. They're probably didn't feel a need to develop weapons like that. They do have aircraft & rhinos. They could have busted that out.
I agree with you. Where were the battle rhinos?

Hell, where were the aircraft? They had them in BP.
Didn't Bilbo shoot them all down in BP?
I haven't seen Black Panther or Ragnarok. I keep meaning to watch both. I guess I finally need to.

I watched Ragnarok yesterday and was underwhelmed. It was just a bit on the silly side and much of the CGI just didn't look close to realistic. In particular when Hela is fighting or when Thor is fighting the hordes of baddies. It has some good moments for sure but I would rank it in the lower spectrum of Marvel movies.easttexasaggie04 said:

I still need to catch up with Black Panther sometime soon.

Are you the god of hammers into kickassery is one of my favorite moments in Marvel. Cue immigrant song, see heimdall and Loki and Valkyrie acknowledge Thor being "back" and hum come out lightning a blazing.
And just like I responded to the guy who was underwhelmed by Infinity War and only rated it a C+...Pffft, haha, lower end of the Marvel spectrum, yeah sure, ok bud.
Saw ragnarok today and it was super duper fun.
IW takes place after BP. End of BP, they go public. They are not a secret anymore. They should have built more defensive weapons in case of invasion. Especially since their amazing barrier can be defeated by...digging under it. lolFarmer1906 said:

About to have my 4th viewing of infinity war

I will say that I watched Ragnarok a couple days ago, HD digital from Amazon on a 4k tv. The cgi suffers from such a high quality tv, but it didn't bother much. Dr Strange was the same way. Ragnarok is still so awesome.

This made me smile. Such a good flick.

How long is it between BP & IW? Can you just manufacture tanks and stuff in a matters of weeks (months?)
There's also the difference between going public and preparing to be invaded. They may have been public for several months but you don't really know aliens are coming at you til aliens are coming at you.

Well, the whole point to BP was that they had the tools necessary to conquer the entire world. Are we to believe that everything necessary for that was in those 4 planes Agent Ross shot down?
