Which Hulk TV Movie Was The Best?

[ZariusTwo]

...Probably the most OBSCURE thing to ask...

I was wondering how many who actually LIKED the three TV Movies Bill Bixby produced after the Incredible Hulk series ended. More so is that how many preferred one of 'em over the others?

-The Incredible Hulk Returns was the first attempt, and featured a crossover with Thor. The film is generally despised by most of the Johnson-era fandom, but has a few good touches, as well as the final appearance of Jack Colvin as Jack Mcgee

-Trial of the Incredible Hulk featured Daredevil and John Rhys Davis as The Kingpin, for me it was an enjoyable little affair that deviated from the norm by having Banner take more of a center stage rather than The Hulk, making him bearded, broken, and a bitter wanderer, terrified of facing trial and leading to a very well acted dream sequence where The Hulk goes berzerk in the courtroom. The Hulk did'nt even appear in the final act, showing a different side of Banner. What is good to notice here is that David had been revealed in the "Returns" movie to have succesfully surpressed The Hulk for two years at the least, so this proved that, under the most desperate circumstances, David could honestly rise to the occasion and save the day without losing his temper. This is what I would have liked to have considered the "finale". Banner survived his greatest "trial".

-Death Of The Incredible Hulk spits on everything "Trial" set up, Banners' back to being his brooding self, faking a retarded condition to gain access to a laboratory in a goverment research centre. This is the darkest of the three, as it returns to the basics of the show, but turns the volume up tremendously, adding a darkness that tied The Hulk more with the espionauge and intrigue that previously belonged to the comics. Its' despised just as much for the resolution to the storyline. The original intention was for The Hulk to be revived in the fourth movie, but Bixby died soon after filming "Death of...", hence why the Hulks' death comes off as boarderline retrarded to those who had never heard of the fourth movie being in pre production.
