Q: How old was Bruce Banner?
 
I always thought of Dr. Banner as a Devoted Scientist in his late 30's early 40's.

But, it looks like Peter Parker's lab buddy is starring in the new Hulk movie.

Never a big Hulk fan so my idea of Mr. Banner comes from th TV series.

Was it David or Bruce?

There is also David Banner the rapper. Like a Pimp!

Late 30s, early 40s sounds about right. He's Bruce in the comic, but the TV series producers apparently thought that name wasn't masculine enough and changed it, according to what I read somewhere.

Not to let the geek in me shine through or anything, but the ocmic character was named Bruce David Banner -- The TVpeople dropped the Bruce part for the aforementioned reason -- the film is meant to blend the comic and TV realities -- at least from what I hear. They're using the age of the comic Banner in the film, i.e. mid to late 20's (though Bana is a bit older than that)

It appears that the movie follows the Saturday morning cartoon more than the Bixby series.

At first I wasn't going to see it because of the whole CGI hulk, but now, after realizing the above mentioned, and reading the entertainment weekly article, i will probably go see it.
