“I talked with Neil Gaiman…I said, that’s an interesting character because you can definitely make him more in the pulpy occult detective/magician mould and formula than was done in the Weird Tales, for example…the idea of a character that really dabbles in the occult in a way that’s not X-Filey, where the supernatural is taken for granted. That’s interesting…But I wouldn’t use the suit!”
Kevin’s also a serious Hulk fan, and he gifted me with this list of EVERY reason that Dr. David Banner was driven to Hulk out. It makes very funny reading.
Some of my favorites:
Receiving a lethal injection, and then having the person say, “Oh. I just gave you a lethal injection. Sorry, David.
“Being tied up and fed soup by an elderly Japanese woman who doesn’t understand words like “You’ve GOT to cut me loose!”
Kicking over a beehive and then being surprised when the bees are mad at him
Locked in a drunk tank with a crazy person who insists he is Ernest Hemingway and then beats the stuffing out of David

Oh dear god.
It’s a road movie essentially. What happens here is that it begins in Sacramento where Wolverine is living with his family. He’s got a little farm where he’s living away from everything. And he owes money to the Hulk gang who are the decedents of Bruce Banner, and they’re kind of like “The Hills Have Eyes†guys. They’re this horrible little gang of redneck Hulks. They’re hillbillies that live in the mountains, and they’ve all got wife beater shirts and ball caps and everything. They ride around in a customized Fantasticar that they got from the superheroes once they’d killed all the superheroes. So they go around and collect rent off all the people in their area. And Wolverine doesn’t have money to pay this particular month, so the story kicks off with he and Hawkeye, who is blind and a drug dealer, running drugs from the West Coast of America to the East Coast where there’s a city called New Babylon that we don’t find out much about until much later in the story. So it’s a road movie of a good guy having to do a bad thing for his family.
Speed Racer stars Emile Hirsch as the aspiring race car driver Speed, who, with help from his family (Mom and Pops played by Susan Sarandon and John Goodman), his girlfriend Trixie (Christina Ricci) and a little chimp named Chim Chim, builds the unstoppable Mach 5 and teams with the mysterious Racer X (Matthew Fox) to win the death-defying, cross-country rally known as The Crucible in order to save his family’s business and beat the evil Royalton at his own game. You can check out the trailer up top, or head on over to Moviefone to see it in glorious HD.
Joss’s life sucks. She’s in the middle of university exams, up to her neck in student loans, and when she’s attacked by zombies, her roommates have the nerve to think she’s making it up. But when the zombies turn out to be terrifyingly real, only Joss knows how to survive the undead invasion: by following the Rules of Zombie Movies.
The premise of Wanted is that all the world’s super-villains decided to band together in 1986 and use their vast collective powers — including mad science, magic and mind control — to eliminate all the world’s superheroes
and rewrite reality in their own dark image; prior to this the world
was a brighter, more hopeful place (a clear reference to the end of the
Silver Age).
Superheroes are remembered as fiction (as they are in the real world),
and behind the scenes a cabal of the leading super-villains run the
entire world.
Mama’s boy Wesley Gibson
discovers that his recently-assassinated father was a super-criminal
called The Killer, and that Wesley has inherited his perfect aim and
uncanny skill with any weapon. Wesley enters a new life, and must deal
with the most dangerous and evil people in the world — whose ranks now
include Wesley himself.
Became:
A young man (McAvoy) finds out his long lost father is an assassin. And
when his father is murdered, the son is recruited into his father’s old
organization and trained by a man named Sloan (Freeman) to follow in
his dad’s footsteps.
This is it. I'm not looking to become an Internet star, or buy a house off by adsense moneyz. Though I am willing to go with the flow on either.
