It's about time ...

It's about time.
It's always nice when there's cross-promotion between properties from the same source.  "Catwoman" might not have sucked so much if they'd kept it to the Tim Burton origin.  (Or it might have.  You never know with these things.)  Now Marvel is trying to lure audiences with more double-dipping.  MTV reports that William Hurt spilled the beans that Robert Downey Jr.'s Tony Stark has a scene in "The Incredible Hulk."

"I have a scene with Iron Man, with Robert Downey Jr.," said Hurt. "It's a funky scene. ... I don't know how it'll work. I know it's weird, and to know it's a device. We did something; I don't know what that's going to be like [on the screen]."

This joins the word that Samuel L. Jackson will be appearing as Nick Fury in "Iron Man," sparking rumors that an Avengers film is not off the table.  (When the strike is settled, anyway.)

Hurt had a few spoilers to give out about the movie.  "There's a scene, and during that scene there are a number of things happening. [Hulk] has beaten Abomination, and then there's a crowd that gathers around, and they realize that he's beaten Abomination. That Abomination was the one who was killing for just the joy of killing; Hulk is not the one.  It's the moment of turn, when society's relationship with Hulk stops being so stupid."
