The Return of the Beast: Part 1 - S1-E1

Continuity mistake: When Banner is strapped to the chair and trying to resist transforming into the Hulk, the extent to how much he has transformed varies. Some shots will show his hands and head becoming larger, and the next shot will show him to instantly be back to normal proportions.

The Return of the Beast: Part 2 - S1-E2

Continuity mistake: When Thunderbolt Ross is talking about cutting a star out of the Hulk's hide, he is leaning against what remains of a wall after a hole was torn through it. When the shot changes to the Leader watching Ross through his insect drone, the section of the wall that was directly in front of Ross is now missing.

The Return of the Beast: Part 2 - S1-E2

Continuity mistake: When the Hulk is fighting the army helicopters in the desert, the color of the sky and the position of the sun indicate that it is twilight. When the Hulk takes cover in the canyon, the sun is setting at an unrealistically rapid pace. It transitions from twilight to nighttime faster than the helicopters can travel a quarter mile.

Continuity mistake: When Bruce Banner is watching Zzzax try to draw power from the generator, the debris he is buried under goes from being building rubble mixed with destroyed machinery and steel beams to being just rubble when the shot changes.

Helping Hands, Iron Fist - S1-E4

Continuity mistake: Early in the Hulk's fight with Iron Man, he punches Iron Man onto the hood of a red car and then throws a blue car at him. Iron Man disappears from the screen as soon as the blue car hits the red car, and then can be seen either back on the hood, or instantly inside the car. If he is still on the hood, then he disappears from the screen once again when Hulk throws the car.

Helping Hands, Iron Fist - S1-E4

Continuity mistake: When Hulk punches Iron Man into the bus, Iron Man is shown landing through the roof in the middle third of the bus on the driver's side. When the shot changes to Iron Man inside the bus, the hole in the roof is now shown to be down the center of the bus and closer to the front.

Doomed - S1-E7

Continuity mistake: When Jennifer Walters is first introduced, her fingernails are unpolished. Later when she is restrained in Dr. Doom's lair, her fingernails alternate between being painted pink and red. Given that she and Bruce were running for their lives, she wouldn't have had time to paint her nails. Later when she transforms into She-Hulk, her fingernails turn green with the rest of her body, but if her fingernails were painted, they should still appear that color, as her skin and hair turning green wouldn't magically remove nail polish.

Answer: The Hulk is a giant brute who smashes everything in his path when he is angry. In Ang Lee's "Hulk," General Ross, played by Sam Elliot, explains it to his daughter.

Answer: Because he feels the Hulk is a threat to all life on Earth, and particularly his daughter's close relationship with Bruce Banner puts her at risk when Hulk enters the equation.

Phaneron

Why does Ross think the hulk is a threat?

Because the Hulk is nearly mindless and goes on destructive rampages with high risk of collateral damage.

Phaneron

If that's the case, what's the problem with the way general Ross judges the hulk?

It's nuanced. Ross is correct to recognize the potential danger the Hulk presents, but he's also too stubborn to realise that he usually exacerbates the Hulk's rampages by trying to engage him in combat instead of trying to calm him down.
