Only three more days to go before Marvel unleashes their latest blockbuster? The Incredible Hulk. But will it really be a blockbuster?

The Incredible Hulk 2008

Marvel Studio’s first homemade release proved box office gold as “Iron Man” made the top 10 of biggest (non-sequel) opening weekends ever. The movie has raked in $537,747,640 so far and is still performing extremely well for a movie released over five weeks ago.

Will the green monster perform as well?

Judging by the decent, yet disappointing performance of the 2003 ‘Hulk’ movie some analysts believe it’s a risky bet. But actually, it’s one of Marvel’s best moves yet. Recycling a superhero wellknown by the masses with yet untapped potential.

So far, the movie itself is getting good reviews by the few who’ve seen it. It’s the fastpaced actionmovie many thought the 2003 version would be.

Boxoffice numbers for Iron Man, Hulk and The Incredible Hulk 2008

As with “Iron Man” featuring Robert Downey Jr. and Kirsten Dunst the cast of the movie was meticuously chosen. Huge names as Liv Tyler, Tim Roth, William Hurt and Edward Norton guarantee a stellar acting performance.

And if all above doesn’t help, even Iron Man himself will lend a hand. “The Incredible Hulk” will feature a short cameo appearance by Tony Stark AKA Iron Man AKA Robert Downey Jr.

So far Marvel has done everything right in preperation of its movie releases. And now it’s just waiting for the june 13th release of “The Incredible Hulk”…

UPDATE: Boxoffice results! On its opening day ‘The Incredible Hulk’ raked in a superhero haul of $21,615,000! Opening Weekend numbers soon!
