Friday Night Filmworks: "The Incredible Hulk"Friday Night Filmworks presents "The Incredible Hulk" (2008). After the lackluster response to director Ang Lee's "Hulk" (2003), the new version of the film was created. Written by Zak Penn and directed by Louis Leterrier, this year's film gave "The Incredible Hulk," one of Marvel Comics' most popular characters, a brand new story. Eric Bana was also replaced with two-time Academy Award nominee Edward Norton as Hulk (Dr. Bruce Banner). In the film, Banner is transformed into the Hulk after being used in a scheme to create super-soldiers. He then has to try to escape the clutches of Thunderbolt Ross (played by William Hurt) and save his love interest, Betty (played by Liv Tyler). Critical reception was more positive for this film and it debuted at No. 1 at the box office, and made almost $150 million in the United States. "The Incredible Hulk" plays at 9 p.m. at Pruis Hall.
Downtown Muncie Free Friday Night Movie: "Step Up 2: The Streets"Downtown Muncie continues Free Friday Night Movie tonight with "Step Up 2: The Streets." A sequel to "Step Up" (2006), this film follows the journey of Andie West (Briana Evigan) as she pursues a life as a street dancer. After West auditions for Maryland School of the Arts, she tries to balance school and her love life with her dancing ambitions. The film features dance sequences choreographed by Jamal Sims, Hi-Hat (who worked on "Bring it On") and Dave Scott (who worked on "Stomp the Yard"). There is a cameo from the first film's star, Channing Tatum, who plays West's older brother. The movie also stars Robert Hoffman, Adam G. Sevani, Will Kemp and Cassie Ventura. The film was a surprise hit upon its release, making almost $150,000,000 worldwide. "Step Up 2: The Streets" will be shown at the 400th block of South Walnut Street and showtime will be at dusk.
