The Incredible Hulk
You wouldn't like it, Barack. Lots of thumping and thrashing and anger management sessions of doubtful sincerity. Very old politics. The Hulk spills his blood into a soda-pop bottle; the military use it to turn Tim Roth into an uber-Hulk. Cue the same old problem that afflicts every comic-book movie year after year: when super powers are this super, all you get is stand-off, stalemate, mutually assured destruction, two hours of grinding muscle and snapping sinew. Oh for some asymmetry. Whatever happened to the good old-fashioned Achilles Heel?
