Ang Lee´s version is the superior Hulk film, imo. I also am happy with the HDDVD

Geez, can't we even mention "Hulk + Ang Lee" anymore? Always this tired "I hate it! vs But I like it!" debate.. Let´s all just face the facts here; "Hulk" is a MOVIE. And with movies, there are differing opinions.. Live and let live!

(for what it´s worth.. I liked the movie)

If everyone can stop bitching about which film was worse...
Anyway, FWIW word is coming down to retailers that (rather unsurprisingly) the 2008 film is coming to BD the same day.

That's a bit like praising the fastest three legged horse.

Neither is perfect, but I will at least agree that the Ang Lee film is not nearly as bad as one might think from all of the badmouthing it has gotten. I was on board with it right through to the "final confrontation", which was incredibly anticlimactic. I will stand pat with my HD DVD, but it is good to see it arriving on BD with at least an upgrade to lossless audio.

Add me to the list of those who think that Ang Lee's 'Hulk' is a superior movie than the new one.

We're not, we're stating which one of the two is the better. Oh, that'd be cool if both came on the same day, I'd get'em.

I thought it was kinda funny that the new hulk movie failed to do better then the first movie with all of its talk of being a better movie.. maybe people are just not fans of the big green guy of either version.
I did get a chance to meet the original hulk at a convention. Lou F.
that was cool.

To be fair, though, if you were able to factor in the people who didn't see the 2008 version
specifically because they felt burned by the Ang Lee version, the 2008 version had the potential to gather considerably more box office.

FWIW I liked both films but enjoyed this year's version better. A Hulk movie should be more action-packed than cerebral IMHO......I'll buy them both too.

Says who? The grosses for both movies @ this point are identical (~$132 million), and the 2008 film hasn't even finished its theatrical run yet. The figure for the 2003 Hulk was as of September 2003. I'll wait and see what The Incredible Hulk's grosses are in September before jumping to conclusions.

Yeah, as Jeff said, I think IRON MAN and THE DARK KNIGHT pretty much blow your theory all to hell.

When inflation is taken into account, the 2003 version is more successful.
