Hulk Vs.

This has been a long time coming. I just Picked up "Hulk Vs." People who know me are probably surprised I didn't have this DVD sooner.

It's Hulk vs Thor & Hulk vs Wolverine (& all of Weapon X.) First off I'm glad they combined these two DVD's to sell as one. They're both too short, not much more than a half hour each and the majority of that is fighting. They're so short and lack story that neither is much of a stand alone movie (although I think they could have been) this is definitely for fans as it's clearly not introducing you to the characters but never the less it's chalk full of Easter eggs and juicy flashbacks for us fanboys. Bottom line is simply this, when ever Hulk shows up you know you've got an action show and a fight on your hands. The Quality for the Fanboys is fantastic and they're perfect movies for a movie night when your watching movies with your buddies of fighting and blowing stuff up. But not so much for someone new to the characters and looking for story, although it could have been if effort was put into it in that direction.

Deadpool is fucking awesome in this, he really is a fun bad guy when done well. But on a totally unrelated point I don't understand why marvel gave him his own series in the comics. You don't give Villains their own series'. Despite how funny the character is, he's a sociopath who murders people for fun. He's not redeemable in the same way Wolverine is.

Ya know there is one other thing in the other movie. That's Thor in general, I like Thor. He's totally everything that Superman is to DC in Marvel. They're both basically that ever vigilant unbeatable self sacrificing savior. But all the Wolverine and Deadpool stuff gets the attention over Thor. His lack of popularity makes him feel less powerful. Ya know what he needs? He needs to have that big defining moment in the marvel universe. I'd like to see a Thor vs Mephisto series closing the brand new day stuff. Or even in general, when ever they're doing a reboot and changing reality in the Background Thor and Mephisto dueking it out but remaining unchanged while reality around them changes would be a nice touch.

Anyway they are fun movies but for geek fanboys like myself the extras, commentary, ect. are probably even more valuable than the movie itself. That said next time we have a movie night at my fiends place I'll be bringing these two DVDs.

As for what would happen if Wolverine and Hulk Really fought. As much as I enjoy Wolverine Hulk is on a different basic level of power. The Ultimate Series nailed it best with this.
