RE: Thought Bubble Thursdays #6 - Fates Worse Than Death
I have a hard time with it too, so you're not alone there, sis. I get what you mean about Hulk and Spider-Man. Bana's not too bad, but the script and the graphics were awful. Also, when you take into account that Banner was supposed to be this awkward nerd, it's hard to picture Eric Bana as such. Norton brought gravitas to the role, but he's really polarizing. There's no doubt that he's acting is top notch, but they had to part because of creativity issues. Mark Ruffalo is very likable, and that is why I feel he endeared himself to the audience easily. I'm glad he stuck around, otherwise I couldn't have taken a new Banner seriously.
Maguire was good for the stories he was given. It's a good thing I hated Garfield's run, that's why when Holland stepped into the role as a younger on the character, it felt like he was saving Spidey haha!
Robert Downey Jr can never be replaced. Whoever they plan on casting (if they ever recast) is going to be a tough sell. He owns that character!
