People see the Hulk on screen and they want him breaking shit. Nothing wrong with that, but yeah thanks to the tv show a lot of people see him as just the thing that Banner turns into and gets him out of trouble. That's exactly what the latest movie provided and it was a lot more well received as a result.

Like I said, I think the movie was enjoyable for what it was going for, I just couldn't clap to the idea that the movie represented the comics in any way, shape, or form.

I think the issue is that since the Hulk isn't an actual superhero, the villain base to choose from isn't that big. I honestly wouldn't mind if more superhero movies chose to make up original villains.
