    I know I’m like one of five people who actually saw The Incredible Hulk in theaters back in 2008 and likes that movie well enough to remember it and rewatch it but it’s so funny how in the first five minutes we have to have the characters go “Betty Ross, the president’s daughter, does not like him”

    CAPTAIN AMERICA: BRAVE NEW WORLD has a lot of explicit references to THE INCREDIBLE HULK. I looked it up and apparently that film came out 17 years ago. When I learned this, I apparently crumbled into dust and got blown away by a stiff breeze.

    Captain America: Brave New World is… a pretty good movie! A strong look at Sam Wilson as his own unique Cap, an amusingly long overdue sequel to The Incredible Hulk and filled with some amazingly symbolic imagery for the exact time it’s opening. Oh, and I really dig Joaquin as the new Falcon.

    Like yes, ultimately any genre waxes and wanes, but in the early going Marvel was aware of that. "Iron Man" was a pretty straightforward superhero movie, but "The Incredible Hulk" was a monster movie, "Captain America" was a WW2 propaganda film, "Thor" was like a 1950s sci-fi movie.
