    you're missing the point, the Hulk was never supposed to be human.

    Lou Ferigno was probably about the best you could hope for in a live-action Hulk.

    It's hard to compare make-up and CGI fairly. I don't think you really can.

    It was Lou Ferrigno those days, although Arnie (Mr. Governator) would have filled the bill even better.

    I'll always prefer the 70's Hulk. At least he was more believable.

    I think 2012 CGI Hulk gets his inspiration from 1978, only in a giant size

    I think CGI Hulk (Mark Ruffalo) gets his inspiration from 1978 Hulk, but in a giant size

    When we found out the "new" Hulk was CG, we decided not to see the film. They could have gotten any professional bodybuilder or wrestler, but chose to go the fake route.

    I loved Lou Ferrignos Performance in Hulk, but the new one looks much more like the Comic-Hulk.
