• Avengers: Age of Ultron (2015)
• Thor: Ragnarok (2017)

1. ‘The Incredible Hulk Returns’ (1988)

Embarking on a nostalgic journey to 1988, “The Incredible Hulk Returns” persists as a monumental chapter in Hulk’s cinematic history, as a direct sequel to the cherished 1977 TV series, “The Incredible Hulk.” While contemporary audiences might associate Mark Ruffalo with the robust and tumultuous Hulk, Lou Ferrigno’s era-defining, two-decade portrayal has been indelibly etched into the legacy of this gargantuan green hero.

2. ‘The Trial of the Incredible Hulk’ (1989)

Ah, 1989, a year that graced us with the second entrée in the TV film trilogy emerging in the aftermath of “The Incredible Hulk” series – “The Trial of the Incredible Hulk.” A thrilling ride of action, drama, and adventure, this flick continues the compelling narrative arches from its predecessor and introduces us to another beloved Marvel crusader – Daredevil.

3. ‘The Death of the Incredible Hulk’ (1990)

Let’s take a moment to travel back to 1990 when screens were graced and hearts subsequently shattered by “The Death of the Incredible Hulk.” Lou Ferrigno took his final bow as the titular green giant, concluding his striking portrayal, which had become deeply intertwined with the character. But the farewell was bittersweet, not merely for its on-screen melancholy but due to the shattering reality that followed.

Intentions to further extend the film series were tragically extinguished by the untimely death of the brilliant Bill Bixby, our beloved David Banner. This unexpected goodbye and a less-than-stellar reception to the film unequivocally sealed the fate of potential sequels like “The Revenge of the Incredible Hulk” and “The Rebirth of the Incredible Hulk.”

4. ‘Hulk’ (2003)

“Whoa, Hulk, slow down!” That’s probably what we thought when we first saw Bruce Banner transforming into the iconic green giant in 2003. Ang Lee gave us an intense Hulk in strength and emotion. The struggle was real, guys – Eric Bana didn’t just portray a superhero; he portrayed a man in turmoil, facing an inner beast.

Marvel’s playground was pretty spread out back then. Whether it was the X-Men or Spider-Man, each hero did their own thing. Hulk was no exception. And Lee, that genius, he didn’t just direct. He became the Hulk, doing the motion capture for our big green friend.

 

5. ‘The Incredible Hulk’ (2008)

The 2008 flick, “The Incredible Hulk,” sure took us on a wild ride. Let’s dive into it: Edward Norton steps into the oversized shoes (well, maybe not shoes, considering Hulk’s preference for going barefoot) of Dr. Bruce Banner. On the run and trying desperately to find a cure for his rather “explosive” anger issues, he’s also got the military hot on his tail. And if that wasn’t enough, enter Emil Blonsky, portrayed by Tim Roth, who transforms into the horrifying Abomination, giving Hulk a run for his money after a heavy dose of gamma radiation.

 

6. ‘The Avengers’ (2012)

2012 was a banner year for Marvel fans – pun intended! “The Avengers” hit the screens, and boy, did it make waves.

Bruce Banner – the genius scientist with anger issues who’s larger than life. Portrayed by Mark Ruffalo, Banner’s hiding out, trying to keep those green outbursts under wraps. But when Nick Fury (Samuel L. Jackson), that eye-patch-sporting director of S.H.I.E.L.D., knocks on his metaphorical door, he’s drawn into a world-saving squad known as the Avengers. Their mission? To thwart Loki, the mischievous villain bent on an otherworldly invasion.

In a pivotal scene, Scarlett Johansson’s Natasha Romanoff scours India to find and recruit Banner into the Avengers Initiative. But man, that heli-carrier scene where he loses control and brings out the big green guy? Intense! Yet, Hulk wasn’t just there for the smash – he played a crucial role in taking down Loki and his alien Chitauri army during the nail-biting Battle of New York. And who could forget the cathartic moment when Hulk uses Loki as his ragdoll in Stark Tower? Pure gold.

 

7. ‘Avengers: Age of Ultron’ (2015)

Jazz hands, everyone, because in 2015, we all met Ultron, “Avengers: Age of Ultron,” to be precise. Under the directorial helm of Joss Whedon, we saw our favorite misfit heroes, including the mighty Hulk, face off against some mind-boggling technology gone awry.

Bruce Banner (Mark Ruffalo), our lovably enraged scientist, and Tony Stark (Robert Downey Jr.), the billionaire with too much time and tech, create Ultron – a program meant to shield the world.

Spoiler (not really): it didn’t go as planned. Our metallic brainchild flips the script, and what was meant to be a planetary safeguard becomes an Avenger’s nightmare.

 

8. ‘Thor: Ragnarok’ (2017)

The incredible, the invincible, the green warrior – Hulk finds his cosmic cage in “Thor: Ragnarok.” Landing with a bang into the vibrant world of Sakaar, our hero isn’t just smashing things this time. He’s practically ruling the roost in his own burly, belligerent way.

Under the directorial magic of Taika Waititi, Hulk (Mark Ruffalo) isn’t just a force; he’s a character – furnished with a surprising amount of comedic timing. The gladiatorial bouts on Sakaar don’t just showcase his physical prowess but unveil a Hulk who’s reveling in a place where his destructive nature isn’t just accepted but revered. The crowd chants his name, and for once, Hulk isn’t just a weapon but a champion to be cheered.

 

9. ‘Avengers: Infinity War’ (2018)

“Hulk SMASH!” – a phrase we eagerly anticipated yet barely witnessed in the monumental “Avengers: Infinity War.” Bruce Banner (Mark Ruffalo) found himself toe-to-toe with the cosmic tyrant Thanos, a battle that physically pummeled the Hulk and profoundly battered his spirit.

 

10. ‘Avengers: Endgame’ (2019)

In “Avengers: Endgame”, Bruce Banner and the Hulk make peace. They meld into a new entity – Professor Hulk, a fusion of Banner’s intellect and Hulk’s brawn. This newfound harmony proves pivotal in the Avengers’ quest to obliterate the harrowing impact of Thanos’ snap.

Bruce Banner is no longer just a scientist, nor is the Hulk a mere juggernaut of chaos. Professor Hulk aids in deciphering the intricacies of time travel, an endeavor crucial for retrieving the scattered Infinity Stones. The emotional tide hits when Natasha Romanoff sacrifices herself for the Soul Stone, an act that leaves the team, especially Hulk, shrouded in grief.
