Just damn.... My five year old was really looking forward to this movie. He even has a Hulk T-Shirt and the big Hulk Hands. Saw the trailer at the Rugrat movie over the weekend. It doesn't look like it's for children at all.
What braintrust decided to go for dark and gloomy? The children's market would have been a long-term goldmine.

Just damn....

The same idiot mentality that stuck a wet T-shirt scene in the middle of Spiderman.

My daughter (5 years old) loves that movie, but I can't let her watch it unless I sit right there to cover her eyes for the one lousy scene. Sheesh!

In fairness, the Hulk really can't be done justice as a character that appeals heavily to 5 year olds. In time, he will come to appreciate the film(if he will ever like it) as many Star Wars fans came to appreciate Star Wars even MORE as they got older(I was only 7 when Jedi came out.) Even though I was young, I basically understood and empathized with Luke and even Vader.

We are all different, but it's possible your son might find something to enjoy about the film though many levels might escape him. Heck, at first I thought Vader's hand/glove had actually replaced Luke's in Jedi! Kids and magical thinking, I swear.
