Here's something that's going to make Dr. Bruce Banner very angry: The Hulk debuted atop the box office over the weekend with $62.6 million — yet some are calling the film a big fat green disappointment. How could that be? Consider the evidence: Industry analysts expected Ang Lee's much hyped pic to take in closer to $85 million; moviegoers polled by Cinemascore gave the film a less-than-flattering B-minus; and a puny Lou Ferrigno cameo elicited the biggest cheers from audiences.
