Why does everybody think this is the best one?

It seems like everybody thinks that this is the best of the 3 t.v. movies, and I just dont see why. It suffers from what the The Incredible Hulk Returns suffered from and thats that they brought in another character like Daredevil. We get too much Daredevil in this movie and not enough Hulk, same thing with the first one, we get too much Thor and not enough Hulk. Also the ending was the worst one of the 3 movies because there was no final Hulk-out..I seriously felt ripped off the first time I saw this. The best one without a doubt is the Death of the Incredible Hulk because not only is the Hulk the only one and the movie is actully about him, but also because this movie felt more like the tv shows better than the first 2 did.

Everybody? You must have missed my post on "The Incredible Hulk Returns" board calling "Returns" the best of the Hulk show reunion movies. Btw, while I find each of the three reunions interesting, I think they pale in comparison to the 1st three Hulk telefilms: 1977's "The Incredible Hulk" & "The Incredible Hulk: Death in the Family"; 1978's "The Incredible Hulk: Married".

My bad, I guess everybody was the wrong word to use. I should have said "the majority of people." I did think "Returns" was good, but I just felt that there was just too much time devoted to Thor and not enough Hulk. I felt the same way with "Trial" and how I thought too much time was devoted to Daredevil/Matt Murdock and not enough Hulk. I was really upset when the movie ended and we didnt even get a final hulk-out. All in all I did enjoy all 3 reunion movies, but I feel like "Death" was the best one because of a better story, and truly felt like I was watching the t.v. show again.

Bringing in other characters from the comics holds my interest. It would've been little boring without Daredevil, even the Hulk doesn't appear that much.

I bought the Double Feature DVD. I have yet to watch RETURNS, but I watched TRIAL last night and I enjoyed it. Better than some reviews I've read said it was.

What really soils it, is when Hulk saves DD and when he approaches Mendez, Kingpin's goons take her away and Hulk just stands there and watches. Would have made more sense if they threw a flash grenade or something.

Actually The Death of the Incredible Hulk was easily the best of three reunion movies.

I gave all three movies 10/10.
Not that they are perfect but... why not rate them a 10. It's the freaking HULK with Bill Bixby and Lou Ferrigno.
