I actually quite enjoyed some of the recent Planet Hulk stuff. Impossible to put in movie form though. The stories are far too derivative.
The concept of the Hulk is actually pretty cool. A Dr. Jekyl and Mr. Hyde scenario taken to the extreme. The problem is it's difficult to pull off the nuance of the philosophy behind it on-screen. It's the same reason the Punisher movies suck. There both always going to break down into some lame action flick with sub-standard special effects that don't quite capture what happens in the comics.
Not all comic books make great movies. Some might make great movies, but those movies would not be liked by a wide audience. Since comic book movies are always very expensive to make, you're going to need some kind of mass audience appeal to make them feasable.
