"The Savage She-Hulk"-the Movie that got away!

This movie was never completed for one reason or another (me thinks its was lack of funds,or protests from Marvel),and,I think they (Meaning Marvel Comics) should reconsider reshooting "The Savage She-Hulk" as there are still a lot of She-Hulk fans out there who feel as if they've been left out to dry! Does anyone here feel like they should reconsider this as well?

 

Well, who would you cast in the title role? I suppose you could go the computer graphics route, but that often looks cheesy (for example the Hulk movie before the most recent remake). I'm all for big bulking Amazonian women but Brigitte Nielsen is too old for the role.

No disrespect to Stan Lee, but I always thought the character was weak, especially the name, which seems a rift on He-Man. That said, a lot of Marvel's writers have done a surprisingly good job at developing the character.

 

Cory Everson or Annie Rivecchio as the She-Hulk (The way Annie rips shirts is terrifying,yet,beautiful,too!) and as Jennie Jennifer Lopez!

 

I believe that She-Hulk and Spider Woman and the characters of that generation were originally copyright insurance so that no other company could create female take-offs of Marvel's best characters. (Edit: It was actually a defense against TV show clones (like the Bionic Woman) to ensure that Marvel would retain the rights).

 

Marvel's been having a crappy streak lately, and I don't believe this film would be that good, ala the HULK. That was a bit disappointing. Lemme have a chance at directing one!!! C'mon Marvel.h

 

I don't think this was ever intended (at least seriously) as a feature film. They did produce a TV pilot about 15 years ago, but it was never picked up (and I'm not even sure it was ever shot). Horrible idea if you ask me.

 

I don't think most people want to see a giant, green musclebound woman. Comic movies appeal to a limited subset anyway, and this would really be a limited subset of a limited subset.

 

$583 million worldwide for Iron Man 2 ain't that crappy.

 

I'm pretty sure She-Hulk predated He-Man...

 

Yeah, you're probably right, although both were early 80s creations, I think She-Hulk debuted a couple of years before He-Man. I really meant that both were equally lame names. I don't know what the feminine of "Hulk" would be otherwise, but it seems like Stan could have come up with something better than "She-Hulk". The Her-k? Hulkette? Shulk? No, they're all pretty lame...

 

The roll was tailor-made for Lucy Lawless...let's hope they decide to try it before she gets too old to train for it.

 

I enjoyed reading the comic when Steve Gerber was writing it, but don't think there;s enough there for a movie.

 

I saw a compendium of John Brynes' She Hulk comics in a store window in about 1991 and went in to buy it! Which is something I have never done before OR since! I thought it was excellent, and any movie ought to be based on that self-referential, self-aware version. Amy Grant on steroids. It'll never happen!

 

Iron Man and Hulk were two of the best comic movies since Superman/Superman II.

 

Just to clarify... She-Hulk debuted before He-Man, in February 1980. He-Man and the Masters of the Universe didn't roll out until 1982.

 

Sometimes it's best if they roam wild and free but not on our movie screens.
