I'm up for this. Ruffalo is a fantastic Bruce/Hulk and he deserves a shot at a full-length Hulk film. We just need a good director.
Actor Mark Ruffalo Says Marvel Now Considering Hulk Standalone Movie

Planet Hulk. Character is at the best when he's portrayed as a somewhat intelligent character. It'd need more back story before it happened, but would be great.
Count me in as another that love Edward Norton's version of hulk more. I know it's improbably that we'll see him again as the hulk but here's to hoping.
I'll admit to being in that minority as well. Granted I think there was some messed up things in the way Norton was handled, but hey Ruffalo works for me too. I'd definitely pay to see another Hulk movie.erbkaiser said:

Nothing confirmed, but it seems more concrete than what Ruffalo said about another Hulk film.
The past Hulk movies, not to mention the old TV show, has always been a fusion of "Dr Jekyll & Mr Hyde" and "The Fugitive" Bruce hulks out, wrecks stuff, and authorities want to stop him. The reason they want to stop him is because he wrecks stuff or they want to make their own wreckers. I didn't read enough of the Hulk comics to know what other adventures the big green guy took. I remember that one time travel book where he went to the future where he found himself an evil tyrant. That was a good storyline. If the movie could pull something like that off, I'd be willing to watch such a film. Still I like many enjoyed the Bruce Banner we saw in Avengers. The man behind the monster was as interesting as you'd expect as the alter ego to a green wrecking ball with an attitude problem.(*Puny, god* still makes me chuckle.)
Could be interesting. I'd like to see the storyline where Loki splits Banner from Hulk and Hulk goes... well, Hulk, on Asgard.
I see 2 possibilities.
If Guardians of the Galaxy does well. We get Planet Hulk.
Great stand alone story, and it gets Hulk out of the way until Thanos shows up.
If Guardians does poorly. Probably a tie in with the ongoing HYDRA vs SHIELD thing.
Hydra wants their own Hulk-esque bio weapons and creates a handful of Hulk specific gamma villains.
Added bonus: HYDRA theorizes Banner's DNA may be particularly well suited to mutation and assumes a direct relative would produce better results...boom...She Hulk.

Damn, I must really be in the minority of the minority here...Ruffalo I have tremendous respect for as an actor, but I just didn't buy him being Bruce Banner except for a glimmer right after he wakes up after hitting the ground towards the end of the Avengers. Norton I felt did a much better job of being Bruce Banner, and since that's what you really have to judge when doing the standard Hulk, I was really disappointed he wasn't picked up again by Marvel.
Though that could be because of how much critics apparently hated both Hulk movies and they wanted to cut as many ties with the previous installments as possible...
