If No One Else Is Going To Say It...

I guess I should. The Incredible Hulk is getting warm news coverage for its successful opening weekend ($55 million / $150 budget) but nobody is mentioning that its opening weekend was less successful than Ang Lee's Hulk ($62 / $137 budget) which everyone continues to pretend was a disaster.


I realize that opening weekend is only part of the financial picture. But it's still a kick to see such a sharp resolution reminder that even numbers, a topic that people think of as so measurable and hard facty, is so easily molded by opinions and consensus perceptions.

p.s. it seems there are other's who noticed. The glory of the internets: vast, mysterious, labyrinthine and endless places one can go...
