112 - MCU Phase 1: Incredible Hulk - Review & Recap
Sunday Mar 09, 2025
Sunday Mar 09, 2025
Dr. Bruce Banner’s a genius with a curse—gamma radiation turned him into the Hulk, a green wrecking ball of rage he can’t control. He’s ducking the feds and General Thunderbolt Ross, a hardass dead-set on turning him into a living weapon. On the run, Banner tracks down a fix for his condition and crashes back into the orbit of Betty Ross, the ex he’s still tangled up with. But the military’s closing in, and then there’s Emil Blonsky—a soldier with a mean streak who juiced himself into the Abomination, a freakshow nightmare even uglier than Banner’s demons. When the streets turn into a warzone, Banner’s got no choice but to let the Hulk loose, smashing through the chaos to take Blonsky down before everything’s rubble. By the end, he’s done running from the monster inside—teeing up whatever the MCU’s got brewing next.
In this episode, River and Tony take a deep dive into The Incredible Hulk, the MCU’s often-overlooked second installment. They break down the film’s place in Marvel’s early world-building, from its grounded fugitive thriller approach to its ambitious—but sometimes uneven—character dynamics. How does it handle Bruce Banner’s struggle for control? Does the villain hold up? And why does this film feel like an outlier in the MCU’s evolution? They analyze the storytelling, action sequences, and production choices while reflecting on its impact within the larger Marvel universe.
