Natrix, why is it I only see you post something when it's to tell us there is already a thread on the subject
He is of course correct, that this is already being discussed in the Avengers thread

I always thought we needed a more pathetic Banner anyway...then again, I always use Ultimates Banner as my point of reference. You need someone you could feel bad for but still want to see the **** kicked out of
Huh. With the response from Norton's camp, it seems like his failure to be creative and collaborate is another word of saying--he wasn't willing to take less than Downey, Jr. or some such thing.

it's all about the $$$$$, it's a shame he will not be in the movie, I am shocked.
If it is about the money (and I wouldn't be surprised if it was), then I wouldn't blame Marvel. They are a business, and don't want to spend more than they think they have to to get a certain return on their investment. How much more money is bringing in Norton going to bring Marvel, in an ensemble picture? Certainly, replacing Downey would cost them, because people enjoy his performance as Stark so much. But the Hulk wasn't as memorable. Nor was Norton's performance.
Honestly, I wouldn't mind seeing Bana revise the role, if they aren't going with Norton.
And I should say that I'm a big Norton fan, and this news does bum me out, but I don't know that his being a part of the film would make a huge difference one way or the other. But I swear to God, if they put Adrian Brody in the role, I'm gonna throw something across the room.

I love how everyone becomes an expert in casting once a piece of news like this hits the world.
Could the reason POSSIBLY be due to the numerous reports that Norton was notoriously difficult to work with and wanted "too much control" over a property that wasn't his?
Nah...couldn't be.
Regardless, the same fanboys that soiled their panties when Hugh Jackman was cast as Wolverine, were the same fanboys that bit their nails over Downey Jr. as Iron Man, are the same fanboys that cried over Ledger being cast as the Joker, are the same fanboys currently crying over Evans as Cap.
Let's wait and see what happens before breaking out the vagosil.

Doesnt make me sad in the least. Norton is a good actor...but he didnt bring anything to the Bruce Banner table IMO. Besides...how much is banner gonna be in the movie anyway....

As much as I like Norton in the Hulk, but things like this is something we can't do ____ about.
But its true that Hulk should have more screen time and if that happens, even if they cast Richard Simmons as Banner. I think we all be alright with this.

More Hulk. Less Banner.
That is all.
That is all.
agreed
marvel could get some skinny, pathetic scientist guy to play banner and could probably pay the actor far less money than what norton would be asking. i say take that money they would have given norton and make hulk cgi effects that much more awesome!
Too bad Marvel didn't trust in his portrayal of Bruce Banner..

Norton is a better actor than all the others in the film IMO. Sad really.
