While they certainly lacked the depth of the original series, these two movies were still ok in their own right. Sure, Don Blake shouting 'ODIN!' to summon the Norseman Thor in "RETURNS" was laughable, but I still liked the movie overall, and Lou Ferrigno seemed bigger than ever. Daredevil was handled slightly better in "TRIAL" however, although the costume was a bit blah. The extras on these discs are definitely interesting, including the "STANDING TALL" documentary of Lou Ferrigno and the as-always wonderful interview with Stan Lee. I wish they would release "DEATH OF THE INCREDIBLE HULK" on DVD, as this was by far the best of the three movies. Hopefully, with the upcoming theatrical movie sure to do wonderful box-office, someone will get the full original seasons moving toward DVD release.

5 stars for the film content, 1 for the "contents". Alright I enjoyed the series as much as the next guy (yes I am among the other things you read about me on my reviews here a Bill Bixby fan may he rest in peace), but let's face it. Releasing these 2 as a 2 disc set is only to capitalize on Thor and Daredevil appearing in them as well. Alright in Death of The Incredible Hulk, nobody wanted to see the character die (in fact Bixby was planning on making another sequel, and explaining why he didn't die, but then Bixby himself got ill and passed away soon after) but if you're gonna release these "sequels to the series" on DVD, it is illogical to release 2 together as a set when there were only 3 movies. QED. Release all 3 in one set for [the price], THEN you'll get people to buy it.

I am a huge Hulk fan. This collection is great on DVD. Lou Ferrigno has a great featurette on there. I think Stan Lee has a neat thing as well. He reveals neat facts about the series. I can't wait to see the tv premeire on DVD. The trial of the hulk was a little weak due to the fact that daredevil had a lot bigger part than he did. The Hulk was only in the movie for 5 minutes. That was weak for a movie, but the Death is much better for Hulk action. The returns was much better, Not that the Trial was a bad movie. The extras definately make up for it. And one of the reviewers kept calling him Bruce, But the fact is his name is David in the series and movies. This is a great warm up for the movie coming out in June. So I emcourage everyone to get this.

With THE HULK about to hit theaters, it's time to milk the incredible green cash cow by finally releasing the series on DVD. However, since Universal still owns the rights to the original series, all Anchor Bay Entertainment can do is release the TV movies. Not the most flavorful of the Hulk installments, it is still a nice treat though to at last snag these on disc. ABE put together a nice package complete with both films, interviews with Ferrigno and Stan Lee, the complete Standing Tall body building documentary with Lou, but sadly no documentary on Bill Bixby. What an injustice!
Used partially (actually mainly) to foster potential Daredevil and Thor spinoffs, these productions shift early on in the stories from focusing on Banner to the new characters. Even though cheesy, they're still good fun. If you're a Hulk fan, needless to say, this is a must have!
