The Incredible Hulk

2011: This film was retconned to 2010 with Fury’s Big Week, and later to 2011 with The Avengers.

2002(?)-2007:

  • Opening Montage: Several dates are given.
  • According to a Culver University ID card, Bruce was born “1969 • 12 • 18” (00:02:01).
  • Initial Hulk testing done on March 07, though the year is unclear (00:02:02).
  • Picture of destroyed truck dated to 2006 (00:00:07).
  • The montage also dates up to January 22 2007 (00:02:09), though this is contradicted less than a minute later as he wasn’t supposed to have any incidents in that time frame.
  • Banner attempted contact with Elizabeth Ross on February 7th 2006 (00:02:39).
  • Dates leading back to April 18 2004 are seen (00:02:50), but later the film claims Banner’s been on the run for 5 years.
  • “Last seen fleeing Oct, 21 2006” and “no sightings for 5 months” (00:02:52) meaning the film must occur during Mar 2007.

2007:

  • Days without incident – 158. Coincides with the 5 months of no sightings.
  • Rules of engagement given to Blonsky were published 24MAR07 (00:14:33).
  • Based on the fact that this information would be time sensitive to General Ross, Banner’s Hulking out in Brazil was likely the same day.
  • April: 17 days without incident (00:34:26), making this April 10th, roughly.
  • Betty claims to have not spoken to the General in Years.
  • General Ross claims that he was turned into the Hulk 5 years ago (01:08:52), likely March 7th, 2002.
