The Hulk Canadian-Style

Well, word has it The Mummy star Brendan Fraser is among the top contenders to replace Eric Bana in the sequel to THE HULK. Yep, soon enough, we could be seeing an honorary Canadian (he was born in America, but has dual-citizenship apparently) playing one of Americas favourite comic book heroes.

Not a bad choice really. They could certainly do worse. But it got me thinking ya know, we ought to have more Canuck actors playing these superhero roles. And lets start with The Hulk. Perhaps the big studios should look to a couple other nice Canadian boys for the big green muscle freak.

Like why do we need this cheesy computer-generated Hulk anyhow? Big old ex-pro wrestler Bret Hart is just sitting around in Calgary waiting for a big movie to come along. Who knows if he can act, but then, who needs to act when they are playing The Hulk. Just break stuff. Besides, we have already uncomfortably witnessed him in skimpy little shorts. Paint the dude green and cut his hair. Voila! The Hulk.

Alright, maybe you need someone to play skinny Bruce Banner, the Hulks alter-ego. Okay, fine.

So what is that Joey Jeremiah kid from DeGrassi Jr High doing these days? Or how about his buddy Wheels? I have not seen Wheels in years. Give the kid a break. Besides with that tattered hair and those thick nerdy eyeglasses, he kinda looked like a science geek with anger management issues.

Actually, skip The Hulk. When are they going to make SHE-HULK? Its really only a matter of time, right? Might I suggest Canuck Pin-up Pamela Anderson for that part? She is a big name, and you know some dudes would step on small children to check her out all painted up green. Best of all, she already has a chest that looks like its been enhanced by Gamma Rays.

Pardon the pun but, would she not be a NATURAL fit for the role?
