Marvel fans were recently hit with a chaotic glimpse of Red Hulk in Captain America: Brave New World, and let’s just say the internet had thoughts. A snippet from the film, set to release in theaters on February 14, shows Red Hulk wreaking havoc on none other than the White House.
Instead of rallying cheers, the clip has become a meme, bringing in trolls and plenty of criticism about its CGI.
While Marvel has long been celebrated for delivering jaw-dropping action sequences, this particular scene left fans scratching their heads. From the over-the-top destruction to the questionable visuals, the clip has become a viral talking point for all the wrong reasons.
Red Hulk destroying the White House in Captain America: Brave New World
The infamous scene of Red Hulk ripping his way through the White House leaked to social media via posts by several different popular X accounts, including @atragicvillain and @discussingfilm. Both account users shared the clip with captions designed to drive discussion and troll, of course, a whole lot of fan commentary.
For the unfamiliar, Red Hulk is a rage-filled, crimson version of the Hulk-the perfect candidate to unleash chaos in a Marvel flick. But the internet didn’t seem too focused on the character’s backstory or motives instead, they zeroed in on the execution of the scene itself.
Marvel fans didn’t hold back when it came to sharing their unfiltered reactions to the clip. A common complaint was the CGI, with one user (@Lbnumber34) posting,
“Wish I could be excited, but the CGI just looks sooooo bad. It’s a step backwards…”
The sentiment was echoed across numerous comments, with many comparing the visuals to something out of a low-budget fan edit.
Then came the confusion about the Red Hulk himself.
“Dang, why is Hulk red?! 😭”
quipped one fan (@Memeing4ATesla),
Another user hilariously added (@Nemli_mot)
“So, Orange Hulk destroyed the White House? That’s the message they are going with? I mean…Red Hulk.”
Others leaned fully into the humor of it all. One fan declared (@atragicvillain),
“This shit looks fan-made lmao,”
And let’s not forget the utter disbelief at the premise. One succinctly wrote (@MorrisDaMenace)
“DESTROYING THE WHITE HOUSE”
as if Marvel had officially crossed into parody territory.
It’s safe to say that whatever tone the filmmakers were aiming for, the internet had other ideas.
Whether fans love it or hate it, Captain America: Brave New World is already making waves long before its February release. While some remain optimistic about the film as a whole, others are questioning if this is a sign of Marvel’s glory days starting to fade.
What’s clear is that the scene has already accomplished one goal: getting people talking. Whether it’s out of genuine excitement or sheer disbelief, the buzz around Red Hulk’s destruction spree is setting the stage for a release that no one will be ignoring.
Even if some fans find the visuals questionable, others might flock to theaters just to see how the chaos unfolds on the big screen.
So, mark your calendars for February 14 and prepare for a cinematic Valentine’s Day full of smashing, trolling, and a little bit of chaos. Because if there’s one thing we’ve learned from this clip, it’s that Marvel knows how to keep things explosive.
