I also forgot about Hulk. Pretty sure everybody (including Banner) thinks he's a grave threat to everyone and everything around him.

Guys, it's gonna be a fucking action movie, not a piece of epic cinema.

But it is trying to do something relatively different in the superhero (movie) genre, and therefore it is opening itself up to more criticism than any Spider-Man movie would have, because of the postmodern twist it is taking on things. I do think there's a point where it can be over-analyzed, but the reason they are making this movie is because it's "new and different" and therefore it is unrealistic to expect people not to treat it differently. Also, as much as people will try and deny it, the race issue is huge in this movie. Why does the alcoholic superhero have to be black? Why can't a superhero that is also a bum be white? Why is Hollywood racist? Those questions will be asked, and again, it is unrealistic to expect anything else.

That said, I do agree with you, est, I just think a request like that is going to fall on a lot of deaf ears.

They're saving the alcoholic white superhero for Iron Man 2.
