Not since the first few minutes of 'Avengers: Infinity War' has the character been enjoyable to watch. Since then, the Hulk has been "Disneyfied", and this is the primary reason why I stopped watching the MCU Movie/shows.
The other part of this rumor is that he won't be Smart Hulk, he'll go back to Rampaging. My theory, depending on the villain, is that either Mr Negative corrupts him, or Scorpions venom drives him crazy. Or something like that. Although, this is sounding like a bit of a clusterbomb between Punisher (as a villain essentially) Hulk as a problem.to solve and at least 2 of the 10 different villains I've heard floated.
I feel like this rumour has been floating around the internet for soooo long now, yeah yeah, the amount of rumours daily about this Spider-Man movie and who is going to be in it, is constantly crazy, sure I think Hulk will be in it, but like literally a zilion villains, from Mr. Negative, Boomerang, Tarantula, Tombstone, Scorpion (who I actually think will probably be in it), plus all of the spectulation of who Sadie Sink is..from Jean Grey(?) Mayday Parker, Mary Jane.
like can we chill.
