Review of:  Hulk Vs. Thor

Overall Rating: 9

Hulk Vs. Thor is awesome!  In this we actually get to see the pure Hulk unrestricted by Bruce Banner.  It’s like normal Hulk Vs. Thor then they go into overtime and we get to watch unfettered Hulk Vs. all of Asgard.  This is an owner for me, it has a lot of rewatchablility and I have even noticed many subtle new elements with each viewing.

The story:  Loki unleashes a revenge plot against his brother Thor during Odin’s sleep.  Loki pulls Bruce Banner from Midgard and separates him from the Hulk than sets the Hulk loose upon Thor and all of Asgard.  What If: the Hulk was unrestricted, enraged, and let loose upon a place.

Hulk Vs. is now out on DVD and I can’t wait to see it!  This project is from the same group that brought us Next Avengers: Heroes of Tomorrow read my full review here.

Watch the Trailer Here!

The footage looks really good and I can’t wait to see both of the smashing battles.

An update on my posts Exploring: Hulk vs Wolverine 2009 Movie and Exploring HULK VS THOR they are both on the Hulk Vs. DVD and not released as two separate DVD’s

• Hulk Vs. Thor:  A gods verses monster movie.  Loki looking for a way to bring defeat to his step brother teleports the only monster in the nine realms capable of this feat, The Incredible Hulk from Midgard.  The Hulk gets transported to Asgard which confuses and as expected angers him leaving Thor to try and stop him in an epic battle.


• Hulk Vs. Wolverine:  The Hulk is loose rampaging through the Canadian Wilderness.  To stop him Canadian’s Department H sends out Wolverine their elite agent.  This is the wild Wolverine before the X-Men days and without some of the tempering from Professor Xavier.  The clash results in a fierce battle.  Dead Pool also makes an appearance and complicates matters even more for Wolverine.

After watching Next Avengers: Heroes of Tomorrow I came across a trailer for the next project they are working on Hulk vs. Thor.  It's a gods verses monster movie.  The Hulk gets transported to Asgard which confuses and as expected angers him leaving Thor to try and stop him.  The trailer looks nice and I could only imagine how a fight between two seemingly undefeatable opponents would go.  Do you think Loki had a hand in this?

Get your copy of Hulk vs. here

The Next Avengers: Heroes of Tomorrow is fifth in a series of animated Marvel Comics movie by Lions Gate Entertainment.  It will be released on September 2, 2008.  The first sneak peek of the film was featured on the Doctor Strange: The Sorcerer Supreme animated movie but was under the name Avengers Reborn which sounds much cooler.

• Watch the Trailer in the Project: Shadow HQ

I'm excited to see this one because they did such a great job with the other movies.  That said I also have some concerns.  This movie has a PG ratting instead of the usual PG-13 rating that the other movies have.  I hope that they didn't dumb down the story or make it too kidsy to get the PG rating.

Plot / Story: The Avengers united to protect earth against evil and after defeating earths enemies they returned to their personal lives. They fell in love, had children Captain America and Black Widow had a son, Thor had a daughter, Black Panther had a prince, Hawk Eye a son, Giant Man and Wasp had a son.

Ultron arrives on earth wanting total domination but the Avengers stand in his way. One by one with his knowledge of their weaknesses he defeated each avenger. They hid away their children from Ultron to have hope for the future.

Now with the hope of the future in their hands Iron Man and The Hulk must raise and train the children so that one day they may unite the Next Avengers and overthrow Ultron.

• Voice Actors: Tom Kane, Dempsey Pappion, Aidan Drummond, Brenna O'Brien, Fred Tatasciore


• Director: Jay Oliva


• Studio: Lions Gate

As a little side note Giant Man is the scientific genius Hank Pym also known as Ant-Man.  So no worries he and Wasp have a son.

The rumblings of a special team being put together has received some new light recently.  With mixed results from the super soldier program Marvel sheds some more light on their Avenger project.  They really proved their capabilities to handle this project with Iron Man and The Hulk.  So now we are left wondering who will be in the avenger movie?

The lineup has changed some as they are working on the individual film but Favreau tells us that "The ones Marvel is talking about now are Captain America, Hulk, Thor, Ant-Man and Iron Man."

He left out Nick Fury, I hope it is only a slip up because Samuel Jackson was awesome as Nick Fury in the cut scene after the credits in Iron Man.  He didn't get to show up in Hulk other than in name.  Then again I don't expect him to have his own movie but I hope to see him have some cameo roles in the future films.

Iron Man was in theaters in May

Hulk just came out in theaters

Thor is scheduled for June 4 2010

Ant-Man doesn't have a time set yet for the film but he could be placed into the Iron Man 2 film scheduled for April 30 2010.

The First Avenger: Captain America: May 6 2011

It's all still a ways off so we will have to see what changes between now and then.  One of my concerns is how much will the Avengers movie cost if they have a full cast of headlining actors & actresses?  This could be the limiting factor on any Avenger movie where they will have to do something either getting them to share more of the cut of the film or to have a smaller number of superheros in any given film.  I found it interesting when Kevin Feige, Marvel Studios' president of production, put forth the idea of "heroes can cross into each other's adventures and occasionally team up if there's a foe too great for any one of them to handle."  This could be a way to have Avengers films with out having to have more then a few headliners in any one film and to maintain a sense of setting consistency.

I applaud Marvel Studios for taking on such a large project in a fan friendly manner and for not trying to cut corners.  I do not envy them for having to make some very hard choices regarding how to fit in a ton of superheros into an avenger film which is what I would love to see yet staying within budget for talent costs and to have enough money left over to make sure that the effects look great.  Good luck, and God speed, I eagerly await the next project.
