Hey, I never said they're good. But both are better than the average layperson likes to pretend they are.

I'm still convinced that 80% of the complaints about Ang Lee's Hulk boil down to "I want to see Hulk smash things, not be sad because he had abusive daddy issues." Because most people form their entire awareness of who and what the Hulk is based on the 70s TV show, not the actual comics (where the abusive dad stuff has been canon for more than 35 years).

The other 20% of complaints were because of the comic panel style transitions, which people found jarring in a non-comedic movie.

Bana's probably closer to the actual Bruce Banner character as well. Ruffalo's definitely more fun and likeable (and more in-line with Bill Bixby's version of the character to some degree), but Banner - especially early Banner - was kind of a socially inept uptight awkward asshole to some degree.

Also, never forget he once stayed at a YMCA and got molested in the shower by a dude.
