Answer: The Hulk is a giant brute who smashes everything in his path when he is angry. In Ang Lee's "Hulk," General Ross, played by Sam Elliot, explains it to his daughter.

Answer: Because he feels the Hulk is a threat to all life on Earth, and particularly his daughter's close relationship with Bruce Banner puts her at risk when Hulk enters the equation.

Why does Ross think the hulk is a threat?

Because the Hulk is nearly mindless and goes on destructive rampages with high risk of collateral damage.

Phaneron

If that's the case, what's the problem with the way general Ross judges the hulk?

It's nuanced. Ross is correct to recognize the potential danger the Hulk presents, but he's also too stubborn to realise that he usually exacerbates the Hulk's rampages by trying to engage him in combat instead of trying to calm him down.

Chosen answer: Terrorsaur was probably removed because his character was far overshadowed by Tarantulas. Both characters were treacherous and backstabbing towards Megatron, but it wouldn't have made sense to have two characters who served the same purpose, story-wise. Scorponok was removed because they wanted to introduce Quickstrike, and it wouldn't have made sense to have two scorpion characters on the show.

Answer: They don't. Movies and especially television shows often depict the legal and judicial systems in the United States as moving very quickly, despite the fact that, in reality, the wheels of justice turn very slowly.

Answer: To add to the other answers, in the U.S. the average time on death row before execution is close to 20 years due to lengthy appeals, legal challenges, evolving state policies, and complex judicial processes. In modern times, it never happens as it does in movies and TV.

Answer: Time passes quickly. It doesn't show every minute of every day. When he was executed, several months, maybe a couple of years, had gone by. They wanted to show him finally deducing that Clark Kent was Superman.
