While it the multipanels seems chaotic for a film, I can see that the Director was trying to go for a comic book panel style. Not that it was executed well but, you gotta give credit to creativity before they figured out the Superhero movie formula (Giant Sky laser = cash).

[@michaela2279]

its a shame cause this style can work really well, but this has gotta be the worst example of it. i think Its Such A Beautiful Day did the multipanel thing perfectly

Scott Pilgrim vs. The World is a good example of it actually working

[@hochob8612]

I feel like he had the idea to do that they just hired some hack editor who was using iMovie for the first time

[@TheZigzagman]

The funny thing is, comic books came up with dynamic panels as a way to convey motion and cinematic cuts with still images. It'd be like if they made a Charlie Chaplin biopic with sound, but they still cut to title cards with written dialogue.

[@peterp2153]

Right. I guess there’s a way one could do comic panel style framing and cutting and not make it look absurd. But I’m not even sure why Lee was trying to get at here. It’s less “make it like a motion comic” and more just throw every kind of strange trick we can think of. There’s one shot that always sticks in my mind, when Hulk busts out of the facility and into open desert. We actually get a static shot of a wall, and before Hulk actually breaks thru the wall, in the corner we see a smaller frame of the same wall that A small Hulk breaks through, and THEN we see Hulk break through it again on the ‘main’ panel. Like WTF is that? And how does that even reflect comix books? That’s just a miniature Hulk caught in a weird time loop where he does shit before he does it.

@@ferpoco7613 Yeah, Scott Pilgrim did it really well because that whole film is stylized and when you see the transitions they're actually kind-of subdued, they're not actively shoving spare shots everywhere and making stuff linger on the screen.

Yeah It’s not what I would call a good film but it feels genuine and I would watch it over a lot of the MCU films which can be so corporate and forgettable.

I just remember the whole "plant breakdown"(or whatever it was) being done perfectly, to just get under my skin and really give me a terrifying image of what a nuclear holocaust would be like for some regular ass Joe in the middle of nowhere(i think nuclear annihilation was one of the first "disasters beyond any man's control.... even though it's a man-made thing.... idk, it just freaked me the hell out, and the rest of the movie failed to hold up the tension the intro gave it)

[@mastermarkus5307]

I understand that they were going for a comic book style with the editing, but comics don't have things like one panel that keeps showing up as the action continues, or a panel that moves across a page, or a character getting outlined like they're their own panel.

You gotta love that “we have 15 hours worth of usable footage, let’s use ALL of it” style of editing that all late 1990’s/ early 2000’s superhero movies had

at 9:22, I genuinely thought this was edited in and not part of the movie.

[@GamePlayMetal]

Yes, the editing was absolutely trying to make the movie look "comic book like". lol

[@saviorofseals5111]

It's actually not a terrible idea on paper. There's a lot of things that work in comic books that don't work on screen. But this... this just isn't right.

[@deeta000]

I’m shocked that they didn’t understand that. I was a dumb baby when I saw this movie and I thought it was obvious.

[@babyblue_22]

5:12 Okay so, I know this video is years old at this point, and no one will prolly even see this, and even if someone DOES see it likely won't care, BUT....I just have to say that I had no idea what the budget for this movie was, and at that point in the video when Adam & Pals™ were doing the guess the ridiculous amount this movie cost game, I actually out loud in my room said 120 million, and when Adam said that was the actual amount, I freaking cheered and clapped and threw my hands in the air; I was so happy and proud of myself. That is all.

[@TheGodEmperorOfMankind_]

The editing on this one though. I really didn't remember it was this wild

[@ZHike360]

I kinda like this movie, lol. I think it tries to do a bunch of crazy shit and most of it fails, but there still are some good ideas. The action scene in the desert is pretty cool, I like the scene in the bathroom where Hulk breaks the mirror. I also kinda like that the villain is his dad and his powers are to absorb the energy around him. Pretty good analogy for an abusive parent, I think. The problem wth this movie is that it's a bit too crazy. Like, it goes for a really artsy angle while also being a blockbuster and those things don't really jive. If they tonned that stuff down a bit and made the characters less sulky, I think this would be one of the best superhero movies. Hulk is an interesting character that deserves a better on screen representation. I take this movie over the 2008 any day. That one is just a boring generic movie.

[@ZHike360]

@Eaxl yeah, but spiderverse is artsy visually, this movie tries to do it narritively, with a bunch ofnpwculiar scenes and camera angles

In light of recent news, I’m imagining a reverse Snyder Cut that’s just this movie without all the bizarre effects and screen-in-screen that Ang Lee felt compelled to include. Better or worse?

[@felipwild]

Worse. You can say all you want about the editing in this movie, but it's one of the most characteristic things about it.

[@manfulify]

Honestly? It would probably only make the film more boring and hollow. At least with the editing, the film becomes a baffling 2+ hour long thread of choices that is entertaining to watch and question.

[@mostlyokay]

Definitely worse

[@CharlieA24]

Doesn't matter. DCCU sucked pre-Shazam. I really hope they go in the opposite direction and just hire new casts except for Zach Levi as Shazam and reboot the entire god damn franchise. I seriously hope that Wonder Woman 1984 is the final remnant of the Snyder's DCCU. Gunn's Suicide Squad can be it's own stand-alone thing.

I'll take this movie and the one from 2008 over the majority of the MCU any day of the week. This one gets the Hulk, unlike what happened with the Hulk on film after 2008.

I got concerned as "Banner" wasn't Eric Bana or Edward Norton, so I thought there was somehow a 3rd Hulk movie released in the 2000s.

[@mqfii8992]

Well, it WAS supposed to be Norton at the MCU, but then Norton had tons of disagreements with Marvel Studios. That's why he was replaced with Ruffalo.

Rewatching this film for the first time in 17 years made me realize that Ang Lee had a strange obsession with nutshots in this movie. If I'm not mistaken, there were at least 4 or 5 nutshots in total, and while that's not exactly an eye-opening number, what was the point of featuring them in a movie with such a serious non-comedic tone?

I love how since this is was adapted from a comic book they thought it would be a good idea to add all those stupid panels and text throughout the film. It’s like saying that every movie adapted from a book should constantly include those page turning transitions you get in windows movie maker.

[@Spontamar]

Where was the extended analysis of the arousing nature of the detailed Hulk transformations throughout the film? Especially the one that occurs in front of Talbot when Bruce gets enraged after getting punched in the face. That's the exact moment when you realize that Bruce's underwear are virtually indestructible or at least conveniently stretchy enough to the point you're not going to witness a green floppy dong :'( on the big screen . . . . Anyways! This is most certainly the most psychologically dense "superhero" movie about Hulk, even if the if the scene transition and comic book-style editing didn't translate all that well onto the big screen.

[@MarceloAbans]

@9:06 In the comics, think it was Civil war 2 Hawkeye kills Hulk, but he kills him while he is Bruce Banner. That was the secret the entire time! The X-Men's Beast revealed that Banner had been testing gamma on himself again, although he pleaded with them that it kept him from changing. When Hawkeye though he saw a flicker of green in Banner's eyes, Hawkeye shot an arrow into his head, killing Bruce Banner and the Hulk.

[@vsGoliath96]

The editing is straight up some avant garde bullshit you'd expect from a pretentious film student... from the director of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.

[@AlexReynard]

There are three things I remember about this movie. 1) Some of the effects when Nick Nolte is merging with various substances look incredible. 2) Hulk fights a poodle. 3) After it was over, both me and my Grandpa complained about the agonizingly slow three hour running time, and later could not goddamn believe it was only two.

[@avpman150]

I loved this movie as a kid and love it now (even more so) as an adult. It’s story is wonderful (the plot centering around the strained relationship between father and son was excellent and amazingly done, as well as relatable for many) has well aged cgi, decent-enough acting (the only thing I really didn’t like was the line reading from San Elliot on coming to the realization of Bruce having repressed memories) and so much more. One thing I really enjoy are the comic-book-style edits, that adds onto the sort of “cheese” you find in the actual books themselves, but it’s not enough to take you out of the seriousness of the story. Another thing is how, every time the Hulk got angrier, he grew bigger, just like in the comics.

@@ns6438 I mean this is a little extreme. Modern comic book movies, with only a couple exceptions, forgo the comic panel format for a more traditional appearance.
