gogorobo - there was also a growled "Leave me alone" the first time he transformed, in the factory, right before he emerged from the smoke.
haradrel - I was watching it thinking it could be the a madder = stronger situation, but it was never really made clear that this was actually going on. I guess those of us in the know can look at it like that, but there's plenty of movies where the good guy finds a last, desperate extra pool of strength to draw from and beat a bad guy who seemed more powerful initially, and I felt this movie could also be read the same way.
ThinkTank - the grey Hulk persona does see himself as a distinct individual, he has the same disdain for "puny Banner" that the classic childlike green Hulk does, but the grey Hulk can be more eloquent about it. He's a pretty mean, malicious guy. He set himself up as a mob enforcer in Vegas for a time, going by the name "Joe Fixit."
There's another Hulk, known as the Merged or Smart Hulk, or simply "The Professor," who retains Banner's intellect and identity while embracing personality aspects of the other Hulks (so none feels so repressed they need to break out). And more recently the Hulk's been shown to be fairly intelligent yet enjoying his immense physical power particularly in combat (I highly recommend reading the "Planet Hulk" storyline and the follow-up, "World War Hulk").
Judging by the way this movie went, I wouldn't be surprised to see a more intelligent and talkative Hulk in any sequels or at least in Avengers, whether it's Banner's personality or just a Hulk it's easier to reason with but who could still lose control if provoked.
