Ruined the hulk is an understatement

They turned the Hulk into a overgrown Care Bear!

I heard that Lou Ferrigno hates what the MCU has done to Hulk.

Edward Norton had the perfect Bruce Banner/Hulk cause he’s unstoppable like a real monster he is

My husband was livid on the drive home from Thor Ragnarok bc he said not only did they bring the hulk down to being roughly the same power level as thor, but he said the whole arc on Sakaar meant there would never be a stand alone Planet Hulk storyline in the MCU.

A green winnie the pooh 😅😂

Fun fact about Avengers Endgame: After Black widows death, Smart Hulk does not make a single quip. Another fun fact: Banner was the only avenger to defeat a black order member without any outside help.

I started to dislike the hulk after ragnarock , not because they made him talk more , but because it felt goofy and out of character imo

His downfall started in Ragnarok and it got worse in endgame and continued to get worse in she-hulk

He became Shrek without the accent

What Disney did to The Hulk is character assassination at it's absolute worse... And I'll always fucking hate them for that!

Hulk was too masculine. Disney doesnt like that.

2008 hulk had the best scenes and camera view.

we can all agree that if ed norton was still the hulk to this day marvel couldn't turn him into a laughing stock like the current version we have today.

Professor Hulk could've been a badass in the MCU. Imagine he did martial arts training with Cap during the blip, and he also went into combat with giant guns like in the comics. So much wasted potential man 🤦🏾‍♂️

told you, Disney ruins everything

You asked what characters needs to be fixed? I say Marvel needs to be fixed. Period!

To me, Disney emasculated the Hulk by Endgame and have no intentions of changing him.

To be fair, who hasnt Marvel ruined, in Cinematic or comics.

Hulk is basically Shrek at this point

Hulk and Thor were absolutely obliterated because of Endgame. They pushed both characters so far outside of who they are.

They made a giant green simp.

Adding to Infinity War, it was really annoying when Hulk entered, hit Thanos once or twice and then just tried to strangle him? Why would he not just keep punching him? Seems like he was barley trying....something I noticed on my last re-watch.

“I want less hulk monster and more green mark ruffalo” said no one ever.

The instant I got out of Infinity War I was pissed, their BIGGEST movie to date with almost every major character in the series still alive, and they completely leave out one of the original avengers and most important characters.

Interesting take. Lol'd at a certain Black Widow related comment. Good video. While I've still generally enjoyed the Hulk in the films there are so many missed opportunities. And that's really the problem with rushing to the team movie format. The Hulk is a rage machine and it is that unrestrained explosion of rage that the viewer can identify with. The cathartic ecstasy of releasing that pent up anger that most of us cage throughout our daily existence. Even Ang Lee's Hulk got that right. Well, Hulk, The Incredible Hulk, Hulk vs., and Planet Hulk. At least we got those.

The intro 😂🔥🔥😂

You forgot to mention that during endgame he was basically benched by the team and was sent as a messenger to The Ancient One.

Idk if you knew this but. In comics we seen Bruce's own persona in Hulk form while battling Thor. Bruce was cocky and hungered to fight more. However he was still... ANGRY! The typical Hulk thing we all know and love.

I believe part of the problem is Mark is scared to speak out about what he think the next steps for the character should be. He’s a yes man, no way he’s enjoying the role. Especially if he’s a hulk fan.

0:27 Changed their Leadership? King, Bob Iger is still in Charge.

IMO Mark Ruffalo is a good actor but he is no Hulk or bruce banner.

Still hoping for an Eric Bana Hulk vs Wolverine in the upcoming movie 😤

I knew we were screwed when they gave us 20% of world breaker hulk

As far as this fan is concerned, the Hulk no longer exists in the MCU.

Hulk got beat by Abomination but he didn’t just give up, throw a tantrum and say Bruce should handle it. He got his resolve and started using creative ways to get the upper hand Why would Hulk suddenly regress after fighting Thanos? You can’t tell me he’d be okay with his allies getting slaughtered and not wanting to do anything to help, especially after he allegedly ‘matured’ during Ragnorok. That’s just character assassination because the filmmakers didn’t know what else to do with the character. Even the merged Brulk creates something as beneficial as a device that can make you age or de-age, yet something as groundbreaking as that gets turned into a throwaway joke like the rest of the character himself

Aang Lee's Hulk has it's criticisms but I got into Marvel movies as well a Sam Rami Spider-Man back in the day.

I'm glad I am not the only one who noticed a slow, yet steady decline in the Hulk's powers and abilities as the MCU wore on. I think that Avenger's Hulk is the strongest (even stronger than what we saw in "The Incredible Hulk"). The Hulk from the first Avengers, once he put on the infinity gauntlet, would have been able to rip Thanos in half. Instead, we have a Hulk who barely survives the reverse Thanos snap. I don't know what Disney/Marvel's plans are for the Hulk, but I do understand the need to resolve some issues in his character such as finding a way for Bruce to be The Hulk, yet still retain some level of control. Stories require character arcs, which means character growth. You can't keep having The Hulk as a rampaging uncontrollable menace, over and over, because then the story would stagnate. In some of the comics, they did introduce a "Grey Hulk" which was a less angry, more intelligent, though less powerful version of green hulk. It was never really clear what would trigger this transformation, and I think the writers mostly used it as an Ex Machina to avoid the same old rampaging just-as-dangerous-as-the-enemy story line. It was never really made clear, but I assumed the Nerd-Hulk version we saw in End Game was a re-imagining of Grey Hulk. The movies never really explain it, but I assume that the merging of the two personas meant that both sides lose something. Hulk loses some of his incredible strength, and durability, and Banner loses a bit of intelligence and also undergoes some resultant personality changes. The comparison to Superman is interesting. I never really cared much for Superman, because he had no real weaknesses other than an eccentric millionaire (or now billionaire accounting for inflation), and a tiny green rock. He was boring. Hulk on the other hand, was also all powerful, but had to contend with his rage that made him a threat to his friends and loved ones as much as to his enemies. That was interesting. It's a shame to see Hulk reduced to just "Strong-Man", but I feel as though this was all so Disney could phase him out, without having to kill him off. Great video, by the way.

04:24 This is the whole problem with all the Marvel Movies, they make too many jokes, even the cartoon for the kids was more seriously then the movies for adults.

They turned him into a coward.

Bob Iger isn’t much of a change in leadership when he was in charge before and created many of the problems we have now.

Lets not forget that hulk is supposed to be stronger than captain marvel. The more a fight goes on the stronger he gets, is supposed to be how fights with the Hulk are supposed to go. They need to stop nerfing characters so hard.

Finally the fans of the Hulk are speaking out on how much they have screwed up a character

thank you for this video, couldn’t have said it better myself 🙌

THE INCREDIBLE HULK IS THE BEST HULK MOVIE

So you may not know this but I was told by several women that boys would watch hulk then use "blacking out" to excuse their rage outbursts. Which is literally what hulk represents. So they had to stop that immediately. Hulk is basically your drunk uncle. Superheroes are for children, not clear thinking adults.

I agree with everything you said. They have disrespected the Hulk. I don't think.Stan Lee would have liked the idea of taking down the Hulk in a few seconds and downgrading the Hulk. The Hulk should get a rematch with Thanos. The writers could have done much better than make the Hulk gonoutbof character. The fightbwas stupid and cheaply done.

I think the main problem is undersaleing his power for story purposes. So many times when ever they needed a character to have a feat they use the debasement of the hulk as that feat. Him getting trashed and helpless against thanos and never getting his angry vengeance is the perfect example. For some reason thors power level keeps going up and hulk got no moments where he is simply the unparrelled in his strength and rage for the team. There are so many narrative tools they could have used to keep him around his overpowered strength level while still telling a compelling story but they didn't know what to do with him. They fundamentally didn't understand writing his rage power up into the narrative, as proof of this he got his professor hulk form when they needed his strength the most. Even in the comics that is his weakest form because he doesn't have access to it.

Professor Hulk is the weakest of the Hulks. It makes sense that they had more Banner and less Hulk at that point. With that said, the Hulk Vs Thanos fight should have been a much longer fight, for the audiences sake.

This video right here is on point. The Hulk is my 3rd favorite superhero and to see how the MCU has massacred my boy.... Awesome video. Can't wait to see more 🔥

Hulk now is no more than a circus strong man.

When the MCU began, my own affinity for Iron Man aside, Marvel had exactly two A-list characters in their arsenal: Spider-Man and the Hulk. I really liked The Incredible Hulk, and right now the cast of Captain America 4 is the _only_ thing that has me at _all_ interested in that film. But since the first Avengers film, Hulk has been ludicrously toned down, and Marvel clearly hasn't had a game plan in mind for Bruce's future since Age of Ultron; no end goal at all. Everything about his role in that film reeks of Whedon not knowing quite what kind of arc to give him, while simultanously asking us to just sort of forget that his fundamental cast of characters from his world and his movie even exist in this universe. What they did in Infinity War could've worked in the end if we'd seen him come back from it in Endgame. But it's not even treated like an arc. Instead, we get an all-out brawl with all the MCU heroes, and if there's a scene with Hulk in there after showing us that he's at least physically present (thanks, Wong), I missed it entirely. THAT is frustrating as hell. In an all-out physical offensive with the atomic integrity of the universe at stake, Hulk should by all rights be the guy we see MOST of, one arm or not. I'm not even gonna start with She-Hulk. I got two episodes in and gave up. That ending is one of the laziest things I've ever seen; I get full-on "they're not even trying" vibes. Like...Dallas' infamous "last season was all a dream; here's Bobby alive in the shower" routine was less creatively bankrupt than Skaar's introduction. And no, you can't just kill him off and expect any of us to care about it, either. I'm not even sure I could buy that *_Bruce_* would care. "Oh, look. I have a son. Oh, look. He's dead now. Wellll...ThAt JuSt HaPpEnEd!" If this is the level of give-a-fuck that _Marvel_ has about things, how the hell are any of _us_ supposed to be invested in this?

Blame the 'woke' crowd. By Endgame, they already felt the need to make the most powerful heroes females, and by 'She-Hulk' we all knew she would be the boss babe who was far superior to him in every way.

You are talking straight facts here MCU has destroyed the Hulk

Blame the TVA :P

7:17 this took me out 😂😂

I hate what they did to Hulk and Thor, Ed Norton's Hulk was great, and I can't stand what they did to Loki. Loki is a bad guy, the God of Mischief, NOT a sympathetic antihero. And I can't stand Mark Ruffalo, he cucked the Hulk long before Marvel Studios did.

They already have a terrifying Hulk for MCU next called She Hulk.

it got ruined from Ragnorok. same with thor. that movie was AWFUL

From the moment iron man knocked him out, it was all down hill.

Thank you 🙏🏽 for this video

The russo brothers even said they didn't know how to write for the hulk and its ridiculous because hulk has so much potential it was a missed opportunity in endgames finale but instead they gave him a messed up arm and comic relief It was also a slap in the face when he showed up in the infinity war trailer but disappeared completely in the beginning

So far 6.6K views and 113 comments. You are on fire🔥🔥👍

Now that the mouse owns Marvel I don't think you're ever going to see a Hulk that kills. What Marvel ought to do is develop a movie based on The Incredible Hulk #181 and let us have a fight between Hulk and Wolverine! This way he can kill Wolverine since he'll just mend and come back for more. They don't even have to follow the comic verbatim... just a knock down bashfest, hell, they could even throw in Deadpool for good measure like they did in the animated short "Hulk vs Wolverine".

I haven't heard any theories that Marvel Studios is going to kill off Skaar when they're clearly setting up the Young Avengers, but there is a way to use Skaar to further Hulk's character. Ritson's final act in Secret Invasion is to "declare all off world species enemy combatants" as Ritson wants the government to "find and kill every last one of them." Since Ross will replace Ritson as President in the MCU in Brave New World, Ross will still work with Ritson's act especially when he finds out that Skaar was born off world. If Hulk sees the man who ruined his life attempt to kill his son, he'll finally return to the savage Hulk or unleash the World Breaker.

basicaly disney want literaly evrything that they own family frendly pegi 6

I have a suggestion idea to M.C.U. people; Have something happen to SmartHulk, and then later he transforms into a new form that is GreyHulk. I imagine M.C.U. GreyHulk, having a very buff, grey skinned body, and he has pail-blue colored eyes. In addition I imagine, GreyHulk’s level of intelligence is lessened, from that of SmartHulk, and he has his own personality too.

She hulk trailer where she was twerking, and then now seeing that they gave hulk a kid….the cringe levels are lethal high

Agree with everything you said. TBH the MCU was dead to me from Infinity War. First of all making Hulk go AWOL, and then in Endgame neutering Thor from what he became in Ragnarok. Oh yeah, they snipped Vision too in Infinity War. A pattern there...... I'd rather they had Thanos kill Hulk in Infinity War - make it a bit more brutal, Hulk maybe makes him bleed and then Thanos destroys him - would have been better than them ruining everything about Hulk after Infinity.

You are spot on wirh this..

We could get A-Bomb in the future that would be cool

Personally i think the Eric Bana Hulk should count as the beginning of Hulks tale. And he was far more bada** in that movie... from the guy who made Brokeback Mountain. Seriously, is no one ever going to give Ang Lees Hulk any credit?? We got the best General Ross imaginable in that movie

Great job on the videio.

1. Disney bought Marvel in 2009 2. They Never made a Hulk Sequel. We will never see "Leader" in action. 3. As movies or time pass by, they make Hulk weaker than weaker. 4. He gets his ass whoop by Thanos easily, and never to be seen again in Thanos War. 5. Hulk's official sequel now comes with a new female character named "She-Hulk" To be honest I do like She-Hulk but Bruce gets to chill outer space, they basically buried him.

No lies detected, as a Hulk fan i would have to agree

I 100% agree with you!

they did that to the winter soldier as well too completely nerfed

Disney/ Marvel could have made hulk do a Mr. Fixit or Grey hulk period with moments of unbridled rage… and instead made hulk a plot device. I would have settled with Banner and hulk being permanently separated by Ancient one… nope. She hulk curing Dr. Hulk was the last straw…

Yeah how they did hulk was insane marvel outta be ashamed of themselves

Change in leadership in disney? The same people are still there. It's not going to get better. Yeah, I did not like erectile dysfunction Hulk. I didn't mind him getting his ass kicked by Thanos, but that should have PISSED HIM OFF for the rest of the movie. But the part that pisses ME off is Thor Ragnarok when Bruce jumps off Valkyrie's ship to reveal who he is and instead of going for a BADASS hero moment for her and the Asgardians to witness, they went with a floppy ragdoll gag. I HATE that moment. This could have been THE highlight of the movie. The one that you just have to pause and rewind to watch again and again. Instead, the went with a joke that is maybe funny one time and that's it. I LOVE the first Ed Norton Hulk movie.

Disney ruined Marvel just like Star Wars

Bring Norton Back

Well yeah thanos had the power stone so it makes sense that he was able to beat him

Yoo I like this channel your videos are amazing

Us savage Hulk fans demand change! 😤

To be fair marble is completely gone I stop watching marvel after that when my favourite character Hulk he was my first superhero I don't know why but I am little obsessed with Hulk literally watch everything of comic

Not ruined bro hes just a different adaptation

I prefer even the Ang Lee Hulk over the Marvel Hulk. I guess to fit the storyline for the arrival of Captain Marvel they had to find some way to sideline the most powerful characters, emasculate Hulk and make Thor an overweight fatass.

Did a terrible job in avengers he moved like a gorilla. He was depowered with that age of ultron hulk busta junk

If you've read the Hulk's recent comic runs you'll truly love the character even more. The comics actually gives both Hulk and Bruce Banner justice. The Immortal Hulk run by Al Ewing is the direction Marvel Studios needs to go with the character. In that run we are introduced to the Devil Hulk. A personality of the Hulk that comes out at night and is way smarter than the Savage Hulk we all know. Devil Hulk was actually the first persona Bruce ever manifested when he was a child. Representing all the damage his father caused him. Devil Hulk is the persona Bruce feared the most. He speaks and thinks like a normal adult, but he is ridiculously strong to where Thor says he's something close to a God. And that's how that persona got the nickname of Devil Hulk. While people want to see a rampaging and mindless Hulk again, I want to see a smarter and more sinister version of the character in live action. That thinks before he acts and comes off as an apex predator that hides in the shadows. Like the factory scene in the 2008 film.

I share a lot of your outlooks. They made Hulk so sawft, you don't even see him fight in Endgame, and his regeneration ability should've healed that arm in minutes. Fighting Thanos... The punch that takes the Hulk down should've sent him thru the hull of the ship, which never would've happened because the Hulks first punch should've put THANOS thru the hull. They made him kinda pathetic, when, as you say, he should be feared

The Hulk’s best appearances in MCU: The Incredible Hulk, The Avengers and Age Of Ultron.

The way I in vision the way the incredible Hulk is a mindless Monster filled with rage they don't take the character seriously the classic television show from the 70s takes it more serious than today and that sad because that was about 50 years ago😮

Lol hulks always been my favourite. 2003, 2008....yh that's my guy. Go into the avengers and hulk steals the show. Things are looking up for Big G I'm so excited for the future possibilities. And now here we are, everytime the hulk is brought up i roll my eyes. A disgrace to everything that has come before. I blame the Russo's and universal

You remind me of Cosmonaut Variety Hour.

Truly a failure indeed.

I totally agree! They just made the hulk look like a freaking cartoon circus clown. Do this ring a bell???? Watch WWE Vincent McMahon has ruined every big star that came a different federation made them look like clowns ruined there carees smh.

Thanos and Hulk fight was bad, it felt like two scaled up non-superhuman fighting in a cardboard world, the Thanos even struggled to lift Hulk, with their strength levels lifting each other should be non-issue. The cop car in first hulk probable was heavier, but Hulk has nor problem to wield it like gloves, and abomination can send him flying with a kick. 🤔

4:45 tbh I agree with everything you said up until this point are we really saying "raped" in this way even in 2024? These are movies about fictional superheroes, the very inappropriate use of rape completely undermines your ability to form valid criticisms. You could have just said "destroyed his character" but seeing as you clearly have yet to become an adult I suppose it's my fault for expecting a mature analysis that doesn't randomly reference one of the worst crimes there is to commit.

Yeah F Disney for what they did to Hulk. But if you think about it Hulk defeated Thor in his own movie. Last thing Thor seen before waking up was Hulks fist. Thor fans can't use Thor was electricuted as an excuse because he was already high voltage.
