Open Discussion – October 8, 2008

Vic Holtreman

It’s Wednesday, so it’s time for our weekly discussion post where I open the forum to you folks.

Talk about whatever you like as long as it’s related to movies, TV or Screen Rant itself. If you want to throw comic books into the mix, that’s fine too.

Hey, I just saw an interesting headline in filmonic, they quoted Mark Fergus and Hawk Ostby regarding Hulk’s future. The comment expressed something I felt regarding TDK:

“I hope ‘The Avengers’ embraces that,” Fergus said of having the Hulk as misunderstood baddie. “You don’t want like 10 super-badass good guys fighting together. Where’s the fun in that? Let’s break it off a little. Friends or colleagues who become enemies is always an interesting thing because you know it’s based on love and friendship and that’s always the worst thing to have turn bad — is someone you actually care about and someone you actually believe in.”

That’s the exact point I was making before when it turns out in TDK, Harvey Dent and Bruce Wayne will not be friends before the setting of the movie like they were in the animated series. I thought it would have been a much more interesting dynamic if Batman’s villain is actually also his best friend, the same sentiment Fergus expressed in that comment about Hulk being a villain since he’s also a “good guy.” What do you guys think about this? Both the concept extending to TDK and just the mere fact that The Hulk might end up being the villain for The Avengers.

My only concern Is
I dont want the new armor and and too many villains to overwhelm the character aspects of the film
I reserve judgement until I see the film ,But i just hope we keep the villains to a minimum.
