The Incredible Hulk corrections

As Emil is in the men's restroom looking at the mirror, some of his hair is hanging over his forehead, but when the shot changes, his hair is suddenly brushed back. See more...

During the creation of Abomination, the doctor performing the procedure gets some infected blood in a cut on his head and his head starts to pulsate. This looks like it will be a set up for the Leader to appear. The Leader is a character with enhanced brain power but ordinary strength. See more...

Comments made in brackets are corrections from other visitors. As such, any aggressive/abusive corrections (and I get quite a few) written as if they're comments I've made myself will be ignored. To submit your own corrections for mistakes, just click the edit icon under an entry, then choose "correct entry". Some entries have "duplicated entry" after them - these are entries which were already listed on the main page, but were submitted again. I occasionally leave these online for a while, just in case they were moved in error, so don't worry about pointing them out to me.

Even minutes after when the Abonimation has started his rampage in the street, you see people still running around in the street, only to be hit by the Abonimation or dodge it in the last second. Should not they have had enough time to clear the street? [Some people are too stupid to head to safety. They'd rather see what's going on and their curiosity gets the better of them. This sort of thing happens in real life, only with things like tornadoes, volcanic eruptions, building collapses, mad gunmen in the streets, etc.]

When Blonsky is seen wearing his uniform, it's visible he has not shaved his face for days. Quite unthinkable for the military - be it American or British. [Unless he came directly from a covert operation in a combat zone, where military protocol is more relaxed. A man in his position would be very likely to be out in the field most of the time.]

When Banner is in Mr. Blue's office in New York for the experiment, you can see a black cable coming out from under his wig in the back. As he goes through the changes to become the Hulk and raises his head, you can see the cable which is to pump air into the face apparatus that transforms/distort Banners face. [Banner's hooked up to monitors, to keep an eye on the changes that he's going through. As such, it's hardly unreasonable that there would be cables running to his body.]

When Bruce Banner ("Mr. Green") is chatting with "Mr. Blue" he receives a message, and on the screen it says "Encrypting". It should, of course, say "Decrypting". [Nope, completely wrong. If Bruce was receiving an encrypted e-mail, then "Decrypting" would be the correct term, but he isn't. He and Mr Blue are using an encrypted chat system. As such, before they can chat, the necessary encryption protocols have to be set up, so "Encrypting" seems entirely appropriate.]

The USB drive should have been destroyed after sitting in his stomach for a day, or at least been somewhere in his intestines, so he wouldn't have been able to puke it up. [Watch carefully as he puts the USB into his mouth; he pushes something behind his teeth on the side of his mouth. It appears he is securing the string from the USB between his back teeth. This would keep it from going all the way into his stomach.]

When the army locates Bruce in Brazil, he is warned by his dog when it starts barking. Bruce was clearly asleep, and his chasing down continues all day long, as we see some scenes where the sun is rising, then at midday when there are children in the streets, and finally at night when he comes across the guy at the soda factory. [Bruce is asleep because he's tired after work. It's late in the day - the sun is setting, not rising and we never see a shot that can be identified as midday. The chase simply runs from early evening into nightfall.]

When Bruce says they shouldn't do anything that can be traced, like credit cards or cell phones, the army is saying the same thing, that he's too smart to get caught. And then he sends an unencrypted, insecure email with all of the data he got from the USB drive. This alerts the authorities and they're off to New York. Bruce and Betty end up meeting Mr.Blue, so what was the point of sending an extremely insecure, traceable email if they could've just handed the USB drive to the guy? [Bruce is using an e-mail address that he thinks is entirely unconnected to him. As such, it would be foolish to add encryption, which could just draw attention to the e-mail if it were intercepted. As it is, it just seems like technical data being passed between scientists, which happens all the time. Bruce sent the data before the meeting was finalised - ergo, at the time, he didn't know that he'd be able to just hand it over.]

Near the start of the movie, in Brazil, I believe Bruce is studying Spanish and the people are speaking Spanish. Brazilians speak Portuguese. [His study book says Portuguese.]

Intentionally or not (and very ironically either way), prominently visible in the background during the final fight between the Abomination and the Hulk is a store called "The Harmony Furniture Store". [If something's prominently visible in a film, then it doesn't need to be pointed out here.]

The British Marine officer is walking beside the General, both are in dress blues. A British officer would never slouch, he would be walking ramrod straight. Also, I would swear, they were wearing identical uniforms. [This is an opinion. Please provide evidence that no British officer would never, under any circumstances, walk in anything other than a ramrod straight posture and resubmit. As for the uniform issue, already submitted and corrected.]

When Bruce logs in to the computer at the university, a Norton Anti-Virus window pops up. This is interesting because Edward Norton played Bruce Banner. I know that this has been corrected, but this website states that trivia is something interesting about the film. Surely this was of interest to some people. [Try reading the rest of the guidelines, which state that things that are very obvious are not considered to be worthwhile as trivia submissions. It can hardly be news to anybody watching the film that it stars Edward Norton - he is, after all, the lead role. The word "Norton" popping up on the screen is also pretty obvious. Practically anybody would be capable of working out the rather clear link between these two items. Trivia is designed to point out something interesting about the film that many people would not be aware of, or be able to work out, it's there for people to read and think "Oh, that's cool, I didn't spot that" or "I must look out for that" and so forth. It's not intended to cover every conceivable fact about the film.]

Bruce is seen wearing a Polar HRM in a couple of scenes (such as when he is in bed with Betty) but there is no transmitter strap around his chest, so how does the HRM pick up his heart rate? [This model requires no transmitter belt: http://www.polarusa.com/Products/aw/aw200.asp.]

Blonsky is referred to as being from the Royal Marines but wears a US military uniform throughout the entire movie. This would not happen. [It could happen if he'd been seconded to the US unit, if the intent was for him to fit it with his compatriots. Which is exactly what's happened...]

Corrected by Tailkinker

The Incredible Hulk's eyes change thoughout the movie from a very pale green to dark and even to yellow at one point. [Okay, so you've pointed that out. Now explain why that's a mistake, because, given the mucked-up nature of Banner's physiology, it doesn't seem unreasonable that his eyes might vary in colour.]
