Title: Batman Forever...starring Eric Bana
Post by: The Laughing Fish on Sat, 5 Dec 2015, 07:51
Before he made to Hollywood, Eric Bana (Hulk, Black Hawk Down) starred as a sketch comedian on Aussie TV for a show called Full Frontal and parodied Batman Forever.

Too bad the sketch itself was awful.  :-[

I would've watched Eric Bana's Batman if it had Jennifer Connelly and Ang Lee was directing.


And maybe Nick Nolte too, if you get my drift.  :)

So, Eric Bana as Batman, Jennifer Connelly as Catwoman and Nick Nolte as Commissioner Gordon?  I think that could have worked.  :)

Definitely. And I am happy there was no Hulk 2, the one movie he made was great. The MCU wanted something else.

Me too Dagenspear.

I also like 2008's The Incredible Hulk.  But it seems that Edd and I are in the minority when it comes to being fans of the cinematic Hulks.  :-\

It does seem like that, Johnnygobbs. And I don't think we'll see a cinematic Hulk again soon... except as part of the Avengers ensemble.

I like them both fine. I find The Incredible Hulk a more entertaining, but I liked and still like Hulk just fine.

I've heard that Thor Ragnarok is going to be basically a Thor/Hulk team up movie.

God bless you both! God bless everyone!

I reckon Eric Bana could've been a good Batman.

As for the 2003 Hulk film? It's flawed, and it has a lot of goofy things about it that make me laugh like the mutant poodles, a crippled Talbot torturing Banner etc. But I like it too.

I rarely hear Eric Bana being mentioned in the same breath with Batman, so I could not resist, being a 2003 Hulk fan. I like the 2008 Hulk, but even that seems to have had a lukewarm reception from Marvel fans.

Especially Talbot's death could have been done better, but other than that, I like just about everything.
