This movie was so cool to me as a kid. Hulk was my favorite at the time too. I loved how it implemented body horror and monster movie elements here. The fight scenes were so grisly and funā¦ I vividly remember cringing when Hulk choked Abomination out with the chain links.
The special features on the DVD were cool as hell too. Deleted scenes, character bios, CGI breakdowns (my favorite part). Oh and the CGI for Hulk was absolutely insane tooā¦ They had some R-rated scenes they cut like when Bruce Banner went to an isolated location to shoot the hulk out of himself. Very dark but this was done in a comic run before if I remember right.
Anyway, I think Iām partially just nostalgic for this movie but I kind of miss the uniqueness each Marvel movie had back then.

Answering this a little differently. Thinking of the best theater experiences Iāve hadā¦
I never got to see The Iron Giant in theaters, but I watched this over and over growing up. One if the greatest animated movies of all time. My indie theater screened it this summer. I got to sit with packed audience of parents my age with their kids. I got to hear these kids laugh, and gasp, and ask questions, and hear parents whisper answers. I was choking back tears in the first 15 minutes because I was already thinking of the end. What a gift.
Runners up:
Carsāsaw it at a small theater in a small Texas town overflowing with kids and parents. Dads were standing up in the aisles along the walls wearing their jeans, boots, and cowboy hats. Everyone was having a ball. Thatās the cinema, baby.
Get OutāGot to see an early test screening, and my friend and I were the only white boys in the room. We had horrible seats but the experience was amazing. Incredible audience interacting with an exceptional movie. Iāll treasure it forever.
SorcererāKnew shit about this movie when I walked into the theater. Me and the rest of the audience were stunned when we walked out. Altered our brains.

This was the only Batman movie we had on DVD growing up (my parents received it for free through some mail-in bundle deal) and as a 7-year-old, I thought it was the coolest thing in the world.

This is one of those movies where I mention it as a litmus test to see if someone I know was a weird kid like me. Why did I see this? Why did we beg for the dvd?

I think this guy may be my new favorite artist. Talented as hell. I appreciate when an artist is involved with every step of the music-making process, down to the visuals even. Produced, mixed, mastered and performed all by one person. Huge fan of his production and how it blends elements of WWE entrance theme style rock music, 80s hip hop, obscure samples from the internet, grimy ass drums, R&B, etc. The list goes on. Anytime a new song or album drops I can expect nothing but pure ear candy that scratches that hard to reach itch in my brain. The only other artist that really does that for me is Death Grips but they can be a bit overstimulating and hard to listen to at times I wonāt lie. His merch goes hard and his website design is cool as hell too.
He dropped a āValentineās Day ā25 Freestyleā thatās been in constant rotation for me, and I recently treated myself to the Directorās Cut Vinyl of his last release for my birthday. Good shit!

I used to collect these from the laundromat machines as a kid. 25 cents for a random figure with tons of personality. I loved the artwork and the silly characters. My sister and I got so obsessed with them that Iād ask my mom to buy lots worth of these off eBay back in 2005 so I could try and collect all the series. They even had a bobblehead series I thought was groundbreaking at the time haha. Discovered the website as a kid and how theyād have bios for each character and tons of artwork. I think this was a big influence for me to start drawing back then. Currently rediscovering them as I came across the original artistās instagram and heās still making merch/figures! Pretty cool/niche interest Iām tapping back into.

I have an IT background but wanted to try this profession out while Iām still young. A lot of fun, a bit harsh hours but the crew and human interactions make it worth it. The brutal 7 month training was ASS but Iām so glad I did it and graduated.
