I would give you a snippet of merit for the Spiderman comment, depending on which one you were referring to. Even still, Hancock just wasn't good... period.
I'm about to go off on you for a moment, but do not take it personally, as I am just taking advantage of the awesome opportunity.
There is no Hulk sequel. Heck, I don't even know if they'll be able to get it off the ground after pissing in Norton's cheerios. Although I'd agree The Incredible Hulk wasn't really as good as it should've been, it was still better than Hancock.
Now, I wouldn't even really call Hancock good period, so it wasn't better than Batman Returns, because you can't beat Michael Keaton, Danny DeVito, Christopher Walken, etc... unless of course if you are Christopher Nolan.
Because we all know The Dark Knight trumps any superhero movie made to date. Not only does it destroy the Spiderman franchise, X-Men franchise and Superman Returns, but it was one hell of a good crime drama on top of being a comic book genre-based film.
Anyway... Hancock sucked the last part of the name.
Yeah.... it's a pretty good joke, for sure.
While I agree with you that both sucked more you know what than Jenna Jamison, I will disagree on the gasoline thing.
Considering the time frame in which the film takes place (it's only a couple of years after the "incident") and considering Smith is the ONLY person left alive on the planet as far as he knows, and for sure in New York city that is not a ridiculous excuse for a vampire/zombie... it wouldn't be too hard to conclude that in no way would he be able to deplete all of the gasoline available in NYC in just a couple of years. Especially if you consider he probably doesn't drive a whole lot. He only goes outside when it's necessary, and even then.
Also, something that minor, while it is a great example of how much the film sucked because you took the time to notice that, would easily be assumed by the audience that for the duration of time in which the events take place, he probably doesn't need to get gas. Maybe he already filled up a day ago... we don't know, but we really and truly do not care.
There are far more entertaining aspects of the film to rip apart than whether or not he is able to find gas or not.
