    New Hulk TV series

    http://www.aintitcool.com/node/55758

    With many hailing Joss Whedon’s “The Avengers” as the best on-screen use of The Hulk to date, a new “Hulk” series from Guillermo Del Toro (“Hellboy”) and David Eick (“Battlestar Galactica”) remains in development for next year's pilot season.
    Look again at that dot. That's here. That's home. That's us. On it everyone you love, everyone you know, everyone you ever heard of, every human being who ever was, lived out their lives. The aggregate of our joy and suffering, thousands of confident religions, ideologies, and economic doctrines, every hunter and forager, every hero and coward, every creator and destroyer of civilization, every king and peasant, every young couple in love, every mother and father, hopeful child, inventor and explorer, every teacher of morals, every corrupt politician, every "superstar," every "supreme leader," every saint and sinner in the history of our species lived there--on a mote of dust suspended in a sunbeam.

    I really can't see myself getting excited about this. The Hulk is a fine character, but I appreciate him more as a peripheral player. I did like like some of the grey hulk stories from the 90s, though, before things got too weird (ie. the Hulk acting as a kingpinesque underworld type--uggh ).

    Plus, I really don't want to see comic book characters given the TV treatment again. It's generally comes off too hokey for my tastes.

    Depends on which era of The Hulk. There ARE opportunities for some good exploration of the duality of the character, his psyche, past etc.

    Plus, if he turns into the giant ass kicking monster who tears shit up from the last couple movies that would be a huge plus.

    It'll probably be a load of crap, there is only 1 true hulk and he will never be topped.
