I will probably like it anyway, because of the action, but CGI Hulk it's still stupid ugly.

CGI Hulk is also a little to big. I think.

I heard he ranges in different sizes from 9 feet tall to 15 feet tall during the movie. I also heard that was the director's intention.

I've only seen the trailers, but from what I can tell, the bottom line is: IT LOOKS FAKE. I can't believe it took them months of CGI work to come up with an effect that looks so obviously phony. Suspension of disbelief is one thing, but it's got to be convincing. From what I've seen of the teasers, I'm not at all enthused about this flick. Hope I'm wrong.

Are you a moron? How real is a 15 foot green man meant to look for Christs sake?

Are you a moron? He's supposed to look like he's really a living, breathing thing interacting with the actors and the sets. From what I've seen, it doesn't look that way. Roger Rabbit was more smoothly blended.

I saw an advance screening and it's actually much better than I thought it would be. The CGI is clearly CGI but you forget about it quickly.

I was saying it would suck from the trailers and screen shots but it's totally worth going to see.
