STILL HOLDS UP 18 YEARS LATER?! The Incredible Hulk Full Movie Reaction Watch Along: https://www.patreon.com/thereelrejects - Iron Man (2008) Movie Reaction Commentary: https://youtu.be/4eNvK8Ga75M The Incredible Hulk Reaction & Movie Commentary with Greg Alba and Coy Jandreau! Join Reel Rejects for our Road to Doomsday MCU rewatch as we revisit The Incredible Hulk 2008, one of Marvel Studios’ most overlooked Phase 1 movies, starring Edward Norton as Bruce Banner, Liv Tyler as Betty Ross, Tim Roth as Emil Blonsky / Abomination, and William Hurt as General Thunderbolt Ross. With Avengers: Doomsday, Spider-Man: Brand New Day, Daredevil: Born Again Season 2, The Punisher: One Last Kill, VisionQuest, and the fallout from Captain America: Brave New World keeping the MCU conversation alive, we’re going back through Marvel Cinematic Universe history to see how this early Hulk movie holds up today. Is Edward Norton’s Hulk better than Mark Ruffalo’s Hulk? Does Tim Roth’s Abomination deserve more respect? And did The Incredible Hulk ending / post credit scene quietly set up more of the MCU than people remember? In this Incredible Hulk reaction, Greg & Coy break down the action, the Hulk vs Abomination fight, the military chase sequences, Bruce Banner’s trauma, General Ross, Betty Ross, Samuel Sterns / The Leader, the Captain America Super Soldier connections, and why this movie feels so different from modern Marvel. With Captain America 4 The Leader, Red Hulk, Thunderbolts, Fantastic Four: First Steps, and Avengers Doomsday all reshaping the MCU, this Phase 1 rewatch hits differently now. #AvengersDoomsday #TheIncredibleHulk #IncredibleHulk #HulkReaction #EdwardNorton #MarkRuffalo #Abomination #TimRoth #RoadToDoomsday #AvengersDoomsday #CaptainAmericaBraveNewWorld #TheLeader #Marvel #MCU #MarvelStudios #ReelRejects #react #reaction #reacting #moviereaction #movie #firsttimewatchingmoviereaction #firsttimewatch #firsttimewatching The Punisher (2004) Movie Reaction https://youtu.be/eldu92OSvcM Invincible VS Gameplay Reaction https://youtu.be/XtXhiuFhq1w Daredevil Born Again Season 2 Episode 8 Reaction https://youtu.be/RHR6pn7qYI0 The Boys Season 5 Episode 6 Reaction https://youtu.be/9hJIhpzkWJc Follow *Greg Alba* https://www.instagram.com/thegregalba/ https://twitter.com/thegregalba Follow *Coy Jandreau* https://www.youtube.com/@CoyJandreau https://www.tiktok.com/@coyjandreau?lang=en https://www.instagram.com/coyjandreau/?hl=en https://twitter.com/CoyJandreau Intense Suspense by Audionautix is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Support The Channel By Getting Some REEL REJECTS Apparrel! https://www.rejectnationshop.com/ RR Clips & Shorts Channel: https://www.youtube.com/@ReelRejectsClips Follow TheReelRejects On The Socials: IG: https://www.instagram.com/reelrejects/ TT: https://www.tiktok.com/@thereelrejects?lang=en TWITTER: https://twitter.com/thereelrejects FB: https://www.facebook.com/TheReelRejects/ Music Used In Ad: Hat the Jazz by Twin Musicom is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Happy Alley by Kevin MacLeod is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Supervising Producer: https://twitter.com/nerdchronic?lang=en Co-Editor: Greg Alba Co-Editor: John Humphrey Music In Video: Airport Lounge - Disco Ultralounge by Kevin MacLeod is licensed under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 license. https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/ Follow & Listen to Us Wherever You Get Your Podcasts!! - Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/3XHMwbveiznxSOGxN9XT0M - Google Podcasts: https://podcasts.google.com/feed/aHR0cHM6Ly9mZWVkcy5tZWdhcGhvbmUuZm0vc3Rhci13YXJzLXRhbGs - Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/the-reel-rejects-tv-movie-recaps/id1616339990 - Audible: https://www.audible.com/pd/The-Apocalypse-Podcast/B08JJP58FG 0:00 Check inn! 2:31 Incredible Hulk Reaction 1:04:06 Incredible Hulk Review PLAYLISTS: Trailer Reactions & Reviews: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-bIhJVeYWw9ZsLdoAQFpx38s2hhyFgDe Movie Reviews: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-bIhJVeYWw-comtadVs8b9JsZEWHUyr8 Movie Talk (News, Spoiler Reviews, & Film Rumors!!!): https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-bIhJVeYWw8fPQ-21NVSb2IOwIiHbVt8 Youtube Video Reactions & Discussions: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-bIhJVeYWw_qwcPsN_vOxXC6IVzrOQYG Sketches & Short Films: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL-bIhJVeYWw_zWuTRfBOUP3aYyIYRzc2y

Do you wish Edward Norton's Hulk got a sequel?

-Edward Norton gives you a Banner who feels hunted, unstable, and dangerous in a grounded way. -Mark Ruffalo gives you a Banner who feels like he’s in therapy between Avengers missions.

This movie is amazing. Hulk in this movie is how Hulk should and always be. He's angry, smart, resourceful. Coolest looking Hulk too

5:42 that was the actor that played Bruce Banner from the original show, Bill Bixby! Actually a pretty clever way to give him a cameo after his passing

I still remember that you deleted scene where Bruce Banner was in the Arctic and he was transforming into the Hulk and in one of the scenes the ice is breaking, you could see Captain America, frozen in the ice 🍿

6:08 that's Rickson Gracie, a legend in the Brazilian Jujitsu community. Related to Royce Gracie who won the original UFC 1.

This is one of the most underrated MCU movies by far. Hulk is a tricky movie to make and this one is very solid, plus it still feels like a movie not just MCU episode whatever.
