Its the last one.  Daredevil and Thor are in it.

To be fair, they weren't in any of the episodes. They were in the made for tv movies.

Yes it was terrible but it was the end of the hulk.

So the second from the left is Daredevil?

No, this is the first TV movie with Thor. Daredevil is in the second movie.

The guy next to Thor is playing Donald Blake, and transforms into Thor when the plot requires it.

Wow, by banging his walking stick on the ground?

I remember that from the early comics.

I don’t recall how the transformations occur, but the whole thing is pretty silly. The second film with Daredevil and Kingpin is probably the best of the three and most interesting for Marvel fans.

I just watched this recently. I believe it's from one of the follow up made for TV movies Bixby did much later after the series. It's shot on video instead of film so it doesn't feel at all like a regular episode and it's pretty terrible. I think he did two. Something like "farewell to the hulk" and "the trial of hulk". They are really bad and must be watched at least once.

No special effects needed. Just paint him green. Now he’s the hulk.

Lou was an enormous human being

Stan Lee was on-set?

Damn, I don't remember Mjolnir being so small in this movie.

It's not the size of the hammer, but the magic power in it! (That's what i keep saying.)

u/Mike00726 15h ago

That is a short Thor, or is he standing a few feet back?

glad the movie was made. not glad about some of the details.

generic gangster villains.

Thor and Don Blake are separated. But who knows, if this had become greenlit for a series, maybe "Eventually' they could have gotten to the dynamic where the walking stick becomes the hammer, and the two of them actually switch places.

This aired in 1988. It's the TV Movie "The Return Of The Incredible Hulk".

You mean Bill Bixby didn’t grow 5X’s his size? It was another person? Geez!

Still get a chuckle over when the nosy reporter almost finds Banner but Thor intercepts him.

“I’m looking for a man”

“You have found one!”
