Hollywood Rocks - S2-E6

Continuity mistake: When the director spits the contract out, it flies up in the air and then falls back to the ground. When the shot changes and he says "It always goes right to their heads," the contract falls from above and bounces off his head.

Other mistake: After Hulk re-enters the Earth's atmosphere, his pants are still intact. It's one thing for Bruce Banner's pants to stretch enough to remain in place when he turns into the Hulk. It's another for them to somehow not be burned off in re-entry.

Hollywood Rocks - S2-E6

Factual error: She-Hulk stops the runaway truck by holding onto the back of it and letting her feet drag on the asphalt. Afterwards, her high heels are still intact. The friction from stopping the truck would have destroyed her shoes within seconds. (00:06:00)

Factual error: Dr. Doom traps Hulk on an asteroid and sends it hurtling towards the sun, which it reaches in a matter of minutes. The sun is around 93 million miles from the Earth. Even if the asteroid was traveling at one million mph, it would still take nearly 4 days to reach the sun, not merely a few minutes. The same mistake applies for Hulk returning to Earth within a few minutes.

More trivia for The Incredible Hulk

Answer: The Hulk is a giant brute who smashes everything in his path when he is angry. In Ang Lee's "Hulk," General Ross, played by Sam Elliot, explains it to his daughter.

Answer: Because he feels the Hulk is a threat to all life on Earth, and particularly his daughter's close relationship with Bruce Banner puts her at risk when Hulk enters the equation.

Phaneron

Why does Ross think the hulk is a threat?

Because the Hulk is nearly mindless and goes on destructive rampages with high risk of collateral damage.

Phaneron

If that's the case, what's the problem with the way general Ross judges the hulk?

It's nuanced. Ross is correct to recognize the potential danger the Hulk presents, but he's also too stubborn to realise that he usually exacerbates the Hulk's rampages by trying to engage him in combat instead of trying to calm him down.
