i just can't muster up enough interest in the franchise. i have liked some of morrison's work on the comic recently. but i am damned tired of origin movies. i like that the latest Hulk just kind of dropped you into the story.

It's not good because it's an origin movie; it's good because it has a real script.

I agree. It's not a typical origin movie. It's a decent action flick with a somewhat compelling story.

I've seen BB three times now...and each time I liked it more and more. If you turn off your film-sense/critical-thinking it's really good, but man does it suffer at times if you're looking at it from a pacing, dialogue, character follow-through, beginning/ending judgement/critic viewpoint.
