I think it will be. I'll post here what I thought of it when I see it.

Just went and saw the Hulk yesterday afternoon.

Minor spoilers alert! (Nothing too big though)

It was a decent movie. It took too long to progress to the point where Bruce becomes the Hulk. One thing I didn't really care for is the use of split screens. I didn't mind the fact that they did this so much, it's just that it made it a little bit harder to follow when you're trying to see what's going on in 3 or 4 different parts of the screen. Sometimes they were just different angle shots of the same scene which wasn't bad but others were completely different scenes that you had to pay attention to in order to be able to follow the story line.

All in all I give it a 3 1/2 out of 5 stars. The acting from almost every person involved - most notably Jennifer Connelly, and Eric Bane - was done realitively well which made the movie more enjoyable. All to often you get movies like this with poor acting that ruins what would be a good movie.

I saw Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle Last night.

It was OK. Some ridiculously impossible action scenes. Lots of scenes of the girls in skimpy outfits. Not much of a story. The girls are all giggling and being silly a lot, and every so often beat up bad guys with their martial arts. Matrix-like fight scenes with time freezing, jumping, flipping, and slow-motion bullets, etc. Cameron Diaz has a scary-looking smile that's too stretched out horizontally, that I don't find very attractive. Drew Barrymore I think is the cutest, although she's not very convincing in trying to be a bad tough girl. Lucy Liu, she seems to be smartest and most skilled of all of them. Demi Moore looks a lot younger than 40, and she is evil and dangerous. Anyway, don't see this movie if you're looking for a story, it's just a long sequence of girls laughing, dancing, and fighting, over and over.

How many people here plan to see Terminator 3. The previews look great. Plus the Last 2 are all time Favorites of mine

Rags- I think that was the subtle comic book panel "stylized" integration into the movie. I actually kind of liked it, but of course I grew up with comic books. It was something different Ang Lee threw in.

My favorite part was the Stan Lee and Lou Ferigno cameo in the beginning of the movie (Security guards).

I really did not like the Hulk. The cgi effect just didn't look real enough. I would have to agree with the review though, 3.5 our of 5.

I am more of the type to check out new movies than to follow movies that portray something familiar.
Though I might see Terminator 3 I am looking forward to Pirates of the Carribean

I will definitely see Terminator 3. Can't wait to see Schwarzenegger back as the invincible cyborg...
