Thanks! Obviously, we didn’t try the commentaries. I appreciate you sharing that. I tried to make clear in this piece that if, like you, a viewer was looking for different things, they might find them here.

The commentary tracks note that Banner doesn't show up because the Hulk is a survival mechanism, and his system knows that Banner would just die on the planet. They tried to work it into the script, but ultimately decided to abandon it. Personally, I think it works just as well in the animated version if there IS no Banner, just the Hulk. You don't need Banner for this story at all and bringing him up just complicates things to no good end. It'd be like Obi-Wan detailing the trade embargoes when Luke asks, "You fought in the Clone Wars?" I also seemed to like the movie a whole lot more than you did, even though (or maybe because) it was mostly well-animated smashing interspersed with expository flashbacks before the Big Wow Finish. Then again, I seem to also be in the minority in thinking that Hulk Vs. was the best movie out of Marvel Animation before this one, mostly because I admire its purity of concept and its execution.
