I couldn't help but notice the Hulk is a lot more smaller in the Avengers than he was in The Incredible Hulk. The normal characters are roughly reaching his shoulder while in the original movie they are reaching his waist size. Did someone else noticed that?

His size seemed inconsistent to me, he seemed rather large when uh....fighting Loki, but then when he was standing with he other Avengers, about to take Loki in...he seemed small

Yeah I caught that too

one of my friends actually brought this up the other day...

Hulk's size has never been all that consistent in the comics either if you think about it. Sometimes he'll seem to tower over every one while other times he'll be just barely taller then Cap. The old live action TV show was the only place Hulk's size was always the same.

His height hasn't been established so they play around with it to suit their purposes

His size seemed a little inconsistent within the Avengers movie alone. Not enough to be distracting, but it was noticeable.

Hmm...now that its been mentioned, I have to say that is is rather inconsistent in some parts. Once the Blu-Ray comes out it'll be easier to do a comparison.

I've always thought Hulk's size was pretty fluid depending on his emotional state.

The size of the Hulk is inconsistent but considering the time and money put into these movies it shouldn't be.

I preferred the larger versions of the hulk

Yeah he is a lot more shorter this time... or Thor is taller than most humans.

in this scene hulk is just squatted. in the movie , generally hulk doesn't walk like human, more like an ape, so he looks shorter.

Yep

Yeah, Hulk most of the time is Hunched over he almost never stands upright.

@inverno: Thor is 6'6, hulk is Hunched over and still much taller then him, id peg Hulk at like 8ft

Actually the earlier Ang Lee Hulk might have given them the excuse/reason for the inconsistency since the Hulk there litterally gets taller the angrier he gets. Like when he changes to kick Talbot's ass, he can stand upright in his own livingroom (making him about 2,4m tall), but when he gets out into the street and comes under fire, he grows maybe 0,5m in height. By the time he reaches Betty at her cabin, he's grown even more:

He's past 3,5 meters tall there, by comparison we have Incredible Hulk (as luck would have it Tim Roth and Jennifer Connelly are nearly the same height at 1,69m and 1,7m):

Still big, but there is a clear difference in size. Also to remember that the Incridible Hulk could get his arms around the bonnet of a humvee, the earlier Lee Hulk could do the same with the turrent of a tank.

And finally there is Avengers Hulk measured up against the 1,9m Hemsworth:

Even if Hulk is hunching over, I would say he is getting shorter.

Keep in mind the actor who played Emil Blonsky was only 5'7" and Chris Hemsworth who plays Thor is 6'4"

Ang Lee's was the most accurate display of hulk's size and strength in movies.

I wish nowadays they portrayed him the same way. In the Avengers he's like 8 feet, and in 2008 he's like 9-10 feet, and in 2003 he's like 12-15 feet

Never took in the height difference, but that's probably because I saw the movies many years apart.
