The next thing that I went to was the Hulk panel at the IGN Theater. The line was freakin' ridiculous, but I met up with my friend Frank and his son and we stood in line. The room that this panel happened in had 2 screens, 1 on either side of the center where the stage / dais where everyone eventually sat to talk. The panel was filled with 2 producers Gale Anne Hurd and Kevin Feige, the director Louis Leterrier and a surprise to us Tim Roth. We were given a talking to by the producers first then the director, then they showed us some footage of Ed Norton transforming. A little more discussion then we are shown Tim Roth in character and the process of him starting with the process leading Emil Blonsky from normal man to super solider. Then Tim Roth is introduced, and it turned into a comedy routine between him and Loius Leterrier they were feeding off the crowd and each other.
There was a line of folks then that were allowed to ask questions for the remaining time, there wasn't much to really write home (or here) about except maybe if Hulk would speak, and the director asked what we would want Hulk to say. Then there was mention of the 70s Hulk and Lou Ferrigno popped his head out on stage, came out sat down and spoke to us for a few. We got a chance to hear Lou do his best Hulk Smash which was surprisingly convincing and in line with the Hulk speaking question.
Then we were lucky enough to see the new trailer, before the trailer started the producer said that if we sat there for 15-20 secs after the trailer that they would likely confirm or deny an internet rumor for us also. Lights dim, trailer starts, and wow it looks rather impressive, the effects are great the story looks interesting, and damn is Hulk scary. Trailer ends, and there is a silhouette entering the doorway to a bar, and William Hurt (Gen. Thaddeus 'Thunderbolt' Ross) on a stool, and some quick banter about a problem, and camera pans up to Robert Downey Jr (aka Tony Stark) he will be in The Incredible Hulk.
