Toronto Hulk

The Incredible Hulk wreaking havoc on Yonge Street, beating tanks up in front of The Big Slice and swatting shoulder-fired missiles down on the U of T campus promises to be one of the highlights of a long hot Toronto summer. My friend Dov and I thought long and hard about other amazing Toronto-centric sequences that no doubt will await us in the multiplex...

So that is the U of T campus in all those trailers I've seen here in South Korea. Did they somehow presciently film the Yonge St. carnage during the riot of '92?

The Hulk could definitely manage most of those things by the way, but what would be left for David Banner (from the TV show) or his brother Bruce to do?

I was tickled by the hulk! Well he didn't look guy in the picture but that's who he said he was and he certainly smelled greenish.
