The point is that Hulk is never in any real danger. He can be beaten (much like Superman) and he can be temporarily incapacitated (much like Superman), but we've never seen him even remotely close to dying and as a matter of fact, we've never even seen The Hulk take on a serious injury. But what makes The Hulk interesting is his character, which is the point I'm trying to get at with Superman



But Bruce isn't any more of a normal man in his Bruce Banner persona than Superman is in his Clark Kent persona. Sure, Bruce Banner is not running around as a giant green monster all the time, but if he gets shot, he's just going to re-emerge as The Hulk with little to no injury, making him just as bulletproof as Superman.



And I consider that to be a genuine flaw with the movie, I'd agree with you there.



Marilyn Monroe once walked around wearing just a wig to blend in with the public and people couldn't recognize her.



Is that why we have literal centuries of stories written about them all throughout human history?

Agree to disagree, we're not going to come around to each others' views.

Although I will say, that the argument about hundreds of stories being written about gods doesn't really work. Gods were always written about for religious purposes usually, to give people hope, not because they were somebody to root for. Protagonists were demi-gods at the most, because they still had that mortal part to them.

Greek plays in particular were usually about very vulnerable men in the case of epics, or usually about really ugly guys getting the girl in the story. They all had flaws. Gods were the deus ex machina element of the story.
