I don't remember what the video was... probably an interview

| Jun 5, 2015 at 15:48 | comment | added | FuzzyBoots | Based on what's excerpted on CBLR, and in the documentary, it sounds like Gilchrest wanted to put his own stamp on the series. He also tried to change Hulk to be red, which he thought made more sense. Also, Robert risks the chance of going back to alliteration, which he disliked, finding it "unrealistic". | |
| Jun 5, 2015 at 15:12 | comment | added | jamesdlin | But then that raises another question: If the producers of the television show didn't like "Bruce", why didn't they use "Robert"? | |
