Dr. Banner is the most interesting part of the movie I've seen so far. Whedon appears to be taking him to the place writer Peter Anthony David first steered him toward back in the 90s and placed him at in the House of M AU, an enlightened soul at peace with himself who, while he can't control the Hulk, can control when he transforms so that the Hulk is positioned where he can do the most good.
In that case the purple shirts appear to be not only a nod to the giant purple shorts but to the New Age. Purple is the color of the crown chakra and the symbol of a fully enlightened individual.
That's far cooler than yet another round of "I must not get angry!" While the original is nice in small doses, it gets old eventually.
