The Incredible Hulk Returns (1988)

from Three Men and a Retrospective Podcast Hosted by Percolated Media

Five years after The Incredible Hulk TV show was canceled by CBS, Bill Bixby wanted more. But original creator Kenneth Johnson had moved on to direct Short Circuit 2, so Bixby was left to guide the project by himself. But a move to NBC, as well as a changeover to Roger Corman’s production company New World, meant that Bixby could be do things his way. And in 1988, The Incredible Hulk did indeed return in the aptly titled The Incredible Hulk Returns. But this time, he had superhero company. Join Matt, Adam, and Garrett as they once again dissect a part of The Incredible Hulk’s story that amazingly included Norse god Thor. How did Garrett respond to this movie when he originally saw it? Will the guys get some laughs out of Thor’s one liners. Here’s a hint. One of them does. Be sure to return next week as The Three Men and a Retrospective Podcast continues through the Hulk part of Marvel by reviewing 1989’s The Trial of the Incredible Hulk!!
