He was up there with Spider-Man, Superman, etc. in terms of favorite individual superheroes, but I feel ever since the MCU, his stock really has plummeted, and doesn't have nearly the same level of hype he once had.

Of course, on the other hand, nearly every other MCU hero has risen to great prominence.

a lot of it is on the rights

Some of it is on each director making him different

Based on nothing but internal feeling, I think regular hulk will be back soon (and not pussy ass professor hulk)

I feel like that is partly because of the whole thing with Universal owning the rights to Hulk movies, so outside of the 2008 movie, Hulk hasnt gotten his own solo movie in the MCU.

This is solely my theory and not based on anything

In shang chi we see banner hurt and back to human. In she hulk we see him as professor hulk training she-hulk. My guess is those she hulk scenes took place before hulk snaps in endgame. Sometime after endgame banner reverted to human form. At some point regular hulk will return. I doubt in she hulk but in the future he will

As mar ruffalo ages, they can keep hulk around in savage form

Professor Hulk is fine. In theory. The real issue is that we don't see Banner's struggle to get there.

It's also a little fucked up that after making it clear that Hulk is a distinct personality and person in Ragnarok and Infinity War, Bruce kind of just kills him.

Im hoping they do some variation on World War Hulk, where Hulk is super pissed off that Ruffalo has kept him locked away all this time.

I'm not a Hulk fan, but it stinks that the reason he doesn't get any more solo movies is because of rights issues. He has his fans and many of them would like another shot at a Hulk movie.

That's not the point, point of WWH was like woah they made Hulk so angry he was able to defeat the entire Illuminati + the Sentry. Seems redundant now after MoM.

The MCU never adapts comic storylines exactly. All you need to adapt WWH is Hulk rampages; heroes band together to stop him.

Do you think Joss Whedon using the character as a self-insert has anything to do with the way Disney has treated Hulk in recent years?

Or was he just the only person who gave a damn about the Hulk?

I want it but I doubt it, he was getting clowned for the most part until infinity war and they decided Thor>hulk. Emasculated him by endgame, and even more so in the new she hulk series.

They can use him as a guest character or part of a team. For a solo film, they owe royalties to Universal.

I imagine they're hoping Disney buys the rights back for a pretty penny.

Apparently the idea behind that is he was mad that Bruce was taking advantage of him.

It's just that nobody who watched the movie got that impression at all because he gets his ass whooped and then refuses to come out.

It's possible. It's also Universal policy that, once they own something, they don't let go of it. They don't sell IPs.

They've fought for five decades to try and claim ownership of King Kong. It's probably why the big ape is only referred to as "Kong" in the Legendary Pictures series. So, yeah.

I think, deep down, while super-strength is a generic power to many, it gives us the greatest sense of power fantasy to just see someone punch a guy and the guy goes flying over any other superpower. It's why basically every hero has super-strength as a power it feels like nowadays. It also devalues Hulk slightly as he is routinely getting out-strengthed.

Powerful magic and stuff is cool and all, but having a movie where Hulk mad Hulk Smash would be incredibly satisfying.

All of his character arc had made perfect sense but, since he's had half the appearances of the other characters, it feels like it jumps around a lot more. He never got his own solo stories to play around in so they've had to fill in the gaps as they went with the bigger movies. And for some reason people can't put the pieces together unless they're shown explicitly what's happening. I'll agree that him becoming a goofster recently is annoying but it's not as bad as thor for example and I think we'll see the big guy at full strength soon enough.
