"In what may be the greatest, albeit most exploitive, TV spot I’ve seen in awhile, Robert Downey Jr., as Tony Stark (aka Iron Man), shows up at the beginning of a new commercial for The Incredible Hulk.

When Connor McLoud, now an old man, kills another alien who has just been sent to earth, he is made immortal once again; and must use his abilities, along with help from Ramirez (who, apparently, Connor can bring back from the dead just by calling his name, which kind of makes you wonder why he took this long to do so), must battle an oppressive future government to save the world. This movie was so bad that it spawned what I refer to as ?The Highlander Rule?, which says that when a movie sequel reaches a certain level of awful, I simply refuse to acknowledge its existence when speaking of the franchise.
