Kano, WTF. Norton is perfect to play Banner. Have you ever read a Hulk comic in your life?

Hero, also WTF. Kano is right, this movie has been news for well over a year.

And they're retelling the origin story. Or at least, "flashing back" to it in such a way to bring it more in line with the TV show than what happened in the other movie. So yes, there will be a new origin for the same character less than a decade after the previous film. Awesome planning, Marvel.

OK, please let me contextualize my answer before you cak yourself again....

I am pretty sick and tired of people questioning people's personal opinion/preferences to these kinds of things. No, I have not read a Hulk comic, not once. Buy why does that matter? why does that make my opinion less? sure they are the source/foundation/roots of what an old-school, loyal, hardcore fan sees as being vital for adaptations of their beloved interests - But I mean, me watching Hulk cartoons are the first things I remember watching, my first T shirt that I wore everyday as a kid was a Hulk one, my fave superhero of all time.

Just because I have not the same affiliation with the Hulk saga as you, so what?

I like Edward Norton, I really do, he's a good lad. Awesome actor, just I really don't think I will dig him in this role.

I liked HULK. Granted it had faults, but I liked it. And I thought Bana was awesome for the most part, he did a good job, I liked how he would channel the fear of the Hulk kind of thing.

I dunno, I just don't think he looks like the Bruce Banner I would envision when I watched the cartoons or thought about it.

I don't doubt he'll do a good job, I just think there is a better person to do the job.

If you would have just said, that you were only going off the cartoon in your original post, mitch wouldn't have questioned your opinion at all.

And anyone who would choose the role for a character based on a failed 2 season(if that) cartoon, rather than an almost 5 decade mythology is legally retarded. So you will excuse me, if I disagree with you.
