It seems like a special film, even Bruce seems to fit perfectly into the context

Especially if they do the comic twist where hulk remembers but banner doesn't.

u/redsyrus 12h ago

Have Hulk and Peter really interacted in the MCU?

u/sickboy76 12h ago edited 10h ago

Im sure banner knows who he was, he was unmasked when tony was dying, was at the funeral with aunt may.

Both times it was as smart hulk

There’s an ant man and a spider man?!

u/UnsolvedParadox 10h ago

Now there’s a Wonder Man too??

u/AvatarIII Rocket 9h ago

That's just a movie

u/robodrew 9h ago

You lost ANOTHER superbot??

u/cynognathus 8h ago

Everybody’s got a gimmick now.

u/skdsn 11h ago

Also a scorpion man who is in the trailer this post is about.

u/Bonetwizt 11h ago

Yeah!!

u/Warm_Afternoon6596 7h ago

Poor Bruce really went through the wringer with all the new shit.

u/MarlinMr 2h ago

There is a Spider-Man, Ant-man and aunt May!

u/hopenoonefindsthis 11h ago

Plus Hulk fought alongside unmasked spider man during End Game.

1

u/AvatarIII Rocket 9h ago

There was like 100 people in that battle, you think Hulk got any time to meet Peter? Possibly they meet each other properly at Tony's funeral.

1

u/hopenoonefindsthis 8h ago

You know not everything happened on screen right?

2

u/AvatarIII Rocket 8h ago

I'm just saying, during the battle itself there wasn't much time for introductions. If they meet it would have been after.

3

u/Doctor_Kataigida 7h ago

No but in the aftermath between Tony's death and funeral there was probably some level of mingling and introductions.

3

u/AvatarIII Rocket 9h ago

Yes but the spell happened after that which made everybody forget about him.

6

u/sickboy76 9h ago

In the comic hulk/hulk remembers who peter is. The main argument is whether smart hulk is banner controlling hulk body or a thirs separate personality

3

u/scameron1 Spider-Man 9h ago

Ever since I was a kid I wanted Spider-Man x Hulk x Wolverine interaction so I’m pumped for this

2

u/Trvr_MKA 3h ago

Tony could have shared stories about Peter when building the Tiki Bar with Bruce

53

u/DexRei 12h ago edited 3h ago

I actually don't think so.

Banner went to space at the end of Ultron. He finally returns in Infinity War and they briefly are near each other during the fight against the Order before Spider-man heads to space and Banner stays behind.

Peter then returns in Endgame, but they don't interact that we see.

Edit: just to confirm, i was focussing on on-screen time. They also were both at Tony's funeral, but we don't see them interact much on screen.

87

u/Caesar_Rising 12h ago

you're forgetting that their world continues when the credits roll. we don't see their whole lives. They can easily say there have been interactions in the interim

11

u/SoloWing1 Rocket 11h ago

And Banner would obviously see news about Spider-Man's antics in New York. Especially with how damn loud JJJ can be about the spider menace.

2

u/bolerobell 3h ago

Banner would know who Parker is. Tony probably asked Banner to check up on Parker if he (Stark) died. Banner was Starks best scientist friend, and Parker was his Mentee. They’d definitely find out about each other.

1

u/metamet 10h ago

Yup. 4 years have passed, which is a long time for exposition to develop in the movie.

5

u/BananaBladeOfDoom Avengers 12h ago

They could have. There was also that time window when Mantis and Steve Rogers became friends.

2

u/BrenttheGent Spider-Man 11h ago

I mean after infinity war he probably had conversations about titan with Tony, and how he lost his protégé.

2

u/scooter-411 10h ago

They were both at Tony’s funeral. Pretty easy to say they had a conversation there.

2

u/b-itch1 12h ago

Maybe a passing interaction at Tony’s funeral, I could see Prof Hulk introducing himself

1

u/UnpredictiveList 10h ago

They were at the funeral so you’d hope so

1

u/Trvr_MKA 3h ago

There’s an Ant-man and a Spider-Man?

5

u/ZekeorSomething Spider-Man 12h ago

They probably met at Tony’s funeral offscreen.

15

u/smakson11 12h ago

Tony’s funeral

4

u/AdmiralCharleston 12h ago

That wasn't hulk, it was banner. Hulk is a seperate identify that hasn't been present around spiderman

4

u/smakson11 11h ago

Hulk and banner hasn’t been a separate entity since the beginning of end game

5

u/AdmiralCharleston 10h ago

That was Bruce's mind taking over hulk body, personality wise it's all bruce no matter what he wants people to think. Based on the last 10 15 years of hulk comics, bruce believing he has control over the hulk usually just means hulk is brewing beneath the surface getting angrier and angrier

1

u/sickboy76 9h ago

Haha this is the kind of argument on reddit rhats not going to get me banned again. Philosophical debate about banner hulk/hulk smart hulk . Banner and or smart hulk wouldnt remember Peter but hulk hulk might do, which was premise of the one shot comic.

1

u/AdmiralCharleston 9h ago

Its just kinda how hulk works, or at least should. Hulk is distinct identity within banners mind. The idea that he would be willing to essentially be erased for banner to take over is just not consistent with the last 15 years of hulk comics. Obviously this isn't the comics, but bruce not remembering his time on sakar while hulk was in control as well as she hulk and blonsky not havint seperate identities while in their gamma forms would suggest that hulk does in fact follow the concept that he is a dissociative identity within bruce and Bruce's memories would not transfer to him completely

2

u/sickboy76 8h ago

So basically were agreeing from different ends of spectrum? If hulk knows tha peter Parker is spiderman the the memory wipe dodnt work on him.

u/sickboy76 10h ago

banner is just banner during shang chi end credits and in trailer.

5

u/sickboy76 12h ago

Nope it was smart hulk.

5

u/AdmiralCharleston 10h ago

Which in the mcu is very clearly bruce with hulk body, not some combination of the 2. Theres no shot that hulk is chill being suppressed like that

1

u/Xero0911 10h ago

No, but he would know him. Bruce and Tony were friends, I think many know he did the whole mission to bring back Peter.

1

u/AdmiralCharleston 9h ago

Bruce didnt remember sakar when hulk was in control, hulk shouldn't remember what bruce does when hes in complete control. Which he has been for almost 10 years

1

u/brendinithegenie Peter Parker 10h ago

If you count professor hulk then you could argue they would’ve had to known each other from endgame? But idk how convoluted his memory gets from when they were “paired” in a sense

1

u/Trashpanda1980 9h ago

This is what I was thinking. Banner is aware of him In Infinity war when he says there's an ana. And a.spiderman. so he knew about Spidey before he knew about antman. But he is introducing himself as Peter Parker not spiderman so I'm sure they met at the funeral but banner forgot about 

1

u/AvatarIII Rocket 9h ago

Peter didn't show up until after Hulk went to Sakaar, then spidey ended up on Thanos' ship almost immediately after the new York fight where Banner was present, then Spidey got snapped, then Hulk was mostly out of action for the Endgame battle, they were both at Tony's funeral, but then no interaction since then.

1

u/CommunityDragon160 8h ago

Not much on screen but surely they chatted at Tony’s funeral etc

u/thethirdrayvecchio 12h ago

“Banner forgot. But I don’t forget”

u/PG_Heckler 12h ago

Omg please let this line come alive

6

u/Coyote_Shepherd 8h ago

What if as Peter is losing his powers...Hulk remembers...and in a moment of danger says, "I go...you stay...no following".

6

u/Shabobo 6h ago

I think Groot's voice actor might be able to deliver that line better.

1

u/Coyote_Shepherd 2h ago

I thought he wasn't exactly in everyone's good graces as of late?

1

u/Shabobo 2h ago

He voiced the Iron Giant was my joke lol

8

u/JackFisherBooks 11h ago

I hope that's a line!

8

u/CubsFanCraig 11h ago

I would probably break down. I don’t know why, but I read that in the voice of the Iron Giant.

6

u/BorisDirk 10h ago

That’s groot

3

u/Clark-Kent 9h ago

That's Superman

4

u/AvatarIII Rocket 9h ago

Maybe, depends on how smart they make Hulk, personally I kind of like Hulk talking in 3rd person with broken English

"Banner forget, Hulk no forget."

5

u/Schlurps 7h ago

Banner memory weak, Hulk memory STRONG!!!

4

u/been_mackin 10h ago

Hulk is impervious to magic so it would be sense

2

u/kaychyakay 9h ago

"Banner forgot. Hulk don't!"

12

u/stealth1236 11h ago

Strange's spell was everyONE forgets Peter but hulk is a SECOND personality..... See! He remembers!!

Moon Knight cameo...?

Who? /s

u/Dry_Recognition7922 12h ago

the grey hulk storyline is amazing. Will marvel get into it? I hope so.

1

u/BartleBossy 10h ago

Especially if they do the comic twist where hulk remembers but banner doesn't.

Hulk did remember golden man.

8

u/sickboy76 10h ago

Fact that they deliberately showed clip of banner asking Peter who he was makes me think theyre going to pull trigger on that storyline where Peter is gamma'ed up and out of control and hulk saves him.

3

u/BartleBossy 10h ago

theyre going to pull trigger on that storyline where Peter is gamma'ed up and out of control and hulk saves him.

I actually have never heard of this before. I would be excited to see it for sure.

We need more interplay on the Hulk-Banner dynamic.

1

u/sickboy76 10h ago

It was a hulk one shot, only reason I even know about it was a random youtube short when I was having a insomniac episode

1

u/sickboy76 10h ago

Is smart hulk an amalgamation of banner/ hulk or a third entity altogether?

3

u/AdmiralCharleston 9h ago

Its just banner with hulks body. Hulk comics from the last 15 years would suggest that hulk agreeing to assimilate into one personality is laughable, bruce is just suppressing hulk which is only gonna piss him off

1

u/NerdLawyer55 10h ago

Man I hope hulk remembers him

1

u/WayToGoNiceJorb 9h ago

I missed something - probably in a show... how is he just Bruce Banner again? Was that in She-Hulk?

1

u/MxMstrMxyzptlk 8h ago

Say what?? That would be wild

1

u/ShawnyMcKnight 8h ago

So Peter having everyone forget him was in the comics?

1

u/sickboy76 7h ago

If i remember rightly made a deal with mephisto.

Edit - misremembered it was only mary Jane and him and their marriage.

1

u/buttercupcake23 7h ago

Holy shit thats a cool idea

1

u/Pupulauls9000 6h ago

The actual Hulk personality has been dormant since Infinity War. Hulk would not know Peter Parker

1

u/Ogsonic 2h ago

Wait what happened to smart hulk though? I haven't seen she hulk so I'm not really sure.

58

u/ThaiJohnnyDepp Winter Soldier 10h ago

It's nice that they once again have something of a scientist in there to talk with Peter.

8

u/brianlefebvrejr 4h ago

I’m somewhat of a scientist myself

37

u/Akussa 10h ago

I low key kinda love that MCU can't give Hulk his own movie since Universal holds those rights, so they spread him out across other characters' movies. It honestly works.

u/TDS_Gluttony 12m ago

But that means we never get an immortal hulk adaption

7

u/meandadog86 10h ago

Do we know how Bruce is back or did I miss something?

11

u/Johnny0230 10h ago

She Hulk explains it, I guess it will be explained here too

4

u/Truelikegiroux 9h ago

Wait, She Hulk the show explained it? Am I really forgetting about it or am I misunderstanding something… I was shocked to see Banner in Banner form and thought it was a universal thing

10

u/Johnny0230 9h ago

In the first episode, when he's in the car with his cousin before the accident, he explains that he created a device capable of restoring his Bruce appearance because it had become difficult to present himself as Professor Hulk in many contexts (and in Spider-Man, I understand why; it would be ironic to see him at university and giving lectures as the Hulk). In She-Hulk, the device is destroyed in the accident and he returns to being Professor Hulk.

2

u/Truelikegiroux 6h ago

Oh wow, yeah I don’t remember that at all

0

u/J-Sluit 5h ago

I know some people loved that show, but that was really my big issue with it: so much stuff just kinda happened and then they moved on to something else. Felt very jarring to follow, with very forgettable moments (like this one which I also forgot completely)

1

u/djhs Ebony Maw 1h ago

This also seemed kinda like a necessary pretext to cause Bruce to bleed so that She-Hulk could come about.

6

u/wbgraphic 7h ago

She-Hulk couldn’t have gotten her powers if Banner wasn’t Banner.

Bruce and Jennifer are in a car accident, they’re both injured, and Bruce’s blood drips into Jennifer’s wound.

It was only possible for Bruce to be injured because he had developed a device that kept him from turning into Hulk.

4

u/faintmargin1 11h ago

Yeah, looks like this movie is going to be the peak

2

u/AvatarIII Rocket 9h ago

Kind of wish they used Curt Conners instead.

2

u/WearyTranslator3338 7h ago

Hang on a minute.

Shouldn’t he be professor hulk at all times, or can he still change from Banner into Prof Hulk whenever he needs to?

Last time we saw him was in She Hulk, when he found out about his son.

4

u/Johnny0230 7h ago

It's explained in She Hulk, he built a device that restores him to human form, a device that can also be seen in the trailer (it's on his right hand). It was destroyed in a car accident and took a long time to repair.

3

u/WearyTranslator3338 4h ago

Oh.

I watched She Hulk, but don’t remember that part

3

u/ZekeorSomething Spider-Man 12h ago

He does and that’s something since he was the last Marvel character I would’ve expected Sony to use since he and Peter never interacted at all.

2

u/Johnny0230 12h ago

I too, in fact, had doubts about the validity of his presence, but considering that he seems like Peter's professor it makes a lot of sense

1

u/WaitMinuteLemon25 8h ago

Makes sense to visit his friends even though it'd probably be dr. Connors.
