Ed Norton's "Incredible Hulk 2008" Hulk?

Mark Ruffalo's "Avengers Ensemble" Hulk?

I'm gonna have to go with Ed Norton on this one. The colouring, the size and the downright ferocity of the Hulk was accurately captured in this film. No bollocks. Mark ruffalo's hulk was too apeish and I felt was irregularly shaped. I also didn't like the fact that it retained much of Mark Ruffalo's facial features.

Moreover, I thought the Hulk's behaviour in general was pretty lame - I wasn't once wowed by its power or temper, unlike the 2008 version. I guess some of that can be attributed to the fact that the antagonists in the Avengers film were a complete joke and each and every one of the Avengers could have stood toe-to-toe with Loki, somewhat watering down Hulk's presence..

What do you guys think?

I love Norton but he looked like plastic and the movie he was in was an absolute disaster. Ruffalo it is.

I personally liked the Hulk from the Avengers the best. He has the best personality. Effects wise, probably the Norton hulk.

The Eric Bana Hulk shouldn't be mentioned.

Personally I liked Edward Norton's Bruce Banner and Hulk more than Ruffalo in The Avengers. I would have preferred Norton taking up the role again.

Gotta go with Norton on this one all around better both as Hulk and Banner


Avengers was a much better movie tho.

Appearance-wise, Norton's Hulk.

Eric Bana's hulk is perhaps the shittiest movie ever concocted, excluding syfi channel movies.

Eric Bana's Hulk has Jennifer Connelly.

The Ed Norton one was a monster. That's probably the most important part of a good Hulk.
Avengers... not so much. I didn't really feel scared when the Hulk got mad. I didn't feel like everyone should run for the hills in that one. Granted, part of that can easily be explained by the fact that everyone there was well equipped to kill him, but still, he didn't seem as good as the Norton one.

Because it is without question the worst looking hulk of any hulk ever. The texture looks terrible and all wrong. They really didn't know how to make cgi skin look right back then. It's also a bad movie, but that's a tangent.

As others have pointed out, there was another recent hulk movie with Eric Bana (2003)

I think this is the best hulk of them all.

Definitely Norton's Hulk. I dislike that the Avenger's Hulk kept Ruffalo's ugly facial features, and his semi-fro going on. As others have pointed out, his Hulk was far too mild mannered. The scene where Black Widow was being chased would have been far more intense with a Hulk more like the one that Norton transformed into.
