LL said we won't be geting any edition other than the theatrical version. The 70mins will just be extras.
I know he says that but if Marvel/Universal suddenly decide they want an extended edition we'll get one.

And while thats very likely, no way will it be 70 mins of extra footage (put back into the movie,) people are kidding themselves with that.
Expect the Norton / LL cut (i.e. 2hrs, 15 mins.) Again, the 3 hour version is called a suicide cut for a reason.

Nivek you're pretty obtuse in your responses. Of course this is the internet so you get all kinds. I just find it funny that someone who puts themselves on a platform doesn't know as simple a term as "easter egg."
Hell, videogames have had them forever too. Fallout for instance.

Excuse me if I never associated the phrase "easter egg" with hidden little details. That always sounded kinda like, I dunno, a "soft", effeminate way of describing a special inside knowledge nod by a filmaker or witty special effects person. I always heard phrases describing the same type of thing as an in-joke or homage.
If they change the edit, yay, something new. But in a way it seems kinda unnecessary since Iron Man and the Super Soldier Serum is present. It an Incredible Hulk relaunch, it's a good Hulk movie, it doesn't need crutches.
I hope it's released online. The cut I saw didn't really need it.

I think I speak for all of us when I say we are sorry that our concept of "easter egg", meaning something that you have to look or search for, like a regular easter egg,is not manly enough for you.
BTW, what is wrong with "effeminate", anyway? Angelina Jolie is effeminate. So is Jessica Alba, Kate Beckinsdale, and many others.
For me, effeminate is always a good thing.
EDIT: On second thought, now I know you are are trolling:
To say that you have always thought of "easter egg" as an effeminate term for a feature found in movies means you have been aware of the term, but simply disagreed with it in connotation. However, your previous posts make it seem like you have no idea what the term means.
BUSTED.

Like it's been said, Cap could have been dislodged from his moorings by the Hulk. As for the shield, maybe it's all that survived the accident that froze Steve and Tony got his hands on it.
Tony may possibly be trying to replicate the shield that was lost with Cap.
It would be really interesting if some of Hulk's rumblings did 'wake' Cap from his long slumber.
Seeing the movie Thursday night (my birthday...YEAH). Will post when I get home.

Yeah, I don't think the shield was made into a vibranium/adamantium mix until modern times.
EDIT: Oh wait. Apparently not. Oh well. It's a good way to seperate the two shields from each other.

No Cap cameo. The Super Soldier program IS mentioned, specifically in WWII. Tony Stark mentions in his cameo that he was aware of the program and wonders why Ross "blew the dust off of it." No after the credits scene in theatrical. Leader origin is awesome.

This is getting confusing because I've read where LL states Cap was in the film but cut out, he refers specifically to the arctic scene. But now we have this:
LatinoReview: What was Louis talking about when he said Captain America was in the film?
Hurd: He didn't really mean the character of Captain America, unless there's something that I don't know. It's the serum.
LatinoReview: I felt that there was a presence around the film of Captain America, and not that you actually see him.
Hurd: Exactly.
LatinoReview: Is Captain America in the frozen tundra? Cause on the trailer we see Banner walking on the tundra and I wanted to know if Captain America was in that scene or not?
Hurd: Captain America was not visible in that scene.
LatinoReview: There was a lot of talk because you do see the Captain America shield in 'Iron Man'
Hurd: Right. Well we do have the serum. If you look at the movie again you'll see that the serum is Captain America.
LatinoReview: So, now I can tell my kids not to worry about not seeing Captain America in The Incredible Hulk.
Hurd: No. They didn't miss anything. He wasn't in the frozen tundra.

Yea, but what's up with LL's words then:
"There's a point when Bruce Banner gives up on his quest for the cure and decide to kill himself. So he travels far North and reaches the Arctic Circle. You might have seen bits of it in some of the promos. The result was a very dark and strong scene, which Marvel, me and everyone else's considered to be too hard to young audiences to take, so we've cut it. Having that said, when Bruce arrives at his destination he meets up with Captain America! At some point this week, we will make it available on the internet – but I cannot tell you where or when – and the material will definitely be on the DVD."

If Marvel were really forward-thinking, they'd do a limited-time theatrical release of the uncut version of the Incredible Hulk, have a different MPAA rating (R) ... and they should do it as the sales for the original release are declining. Oh yeah, and have it only show after 9 or 10pm.
I know... too risky.

Nivek
06-12-2008, 01:59 PM
Marvels first real success was the R rated Blade. But I think film makers and studios in general aim for PG-13 releases, followed by unrated or directors cut DVD.
Personally, I like the DVD being the better value.
Gamingboy
06-12-2008, 02:08 PM
Thing with Blade though is that he is/was so unknown to the general public that he makes Iron Man look like Batman in terms of popularity.
Rock Sexton
06-12-2008, 02:48 PM
I think the idea of creating a "universe" on screen for characters from multiple stories is a vastly under-developed, under-utilized movie philosophy. I love that Marvel is grabbing the bull by it's horns in this regard, but I'm curious as to why they are sticking to the "easter egg" variety in terms of connecting the dots. I know they want each individual character to have their own movie, but at the same time I think we need to see a little bit more done in terms of connecting these guys before an Avenger movie is to come out.
I dunno. Maybe it's just me. As much as I loved the fact that we got to see the Nick Fury scene in IM and now the IM scene in Hulk - I still think there's sort of a lackluster "promotional" element to it ........in kind of the same way you might see a product placement in a movie like coca cola or pepsi or something.
So much more could be done with these characters without compromising what they're trying to set up for The Avengers. That Captain America scene that supposedly got cut out should've been a no-brainer to include.

Okay, heres one of those things I don't like about how this is being presented among fans. Stark, Shield, and the super soldier serum are presented in a matter of fact manner. This isn't a secret, it's pretty in your face. Superheroes/villians are a reality in this world. Characters know each other. I wouldn't be surprised to see Hurt's Ross in Iron Man (like having a cut scene added to DVD of Ross at the Jericho test).
I really think this is a recipe for doing something interesting if they can keep the quality consistent.

No, I dont like how thats flying over peoples heads that this isn't some film lined with puzzle pieces, but a story about one character. I have to admit some sort of film continuity has to be planned out now. The confusion over Captain America physically being in Incredible Hulk pretty much highlights that. That Shield being thrown in to Iron Man may have been a bad move, because everyone expects all these big treats in future Marvel films when the fans of the character want it to be about their character.

My nomination for a director for the Captain America movie is Louis Letterier. He truly captured the way he moves in the scene where Blonksy fights Hulk under the influence of the serum.

That would be awesome if Jack McGee became more of a supporting character in the sequels, following Bruce wherever he goes just to get a career breaking story about the Hulk.

I felt letterier was too defensive with blonsky with his super soldier serum
I had yet to see the scene until i watched it yesterday but people made it sound more like cap and hulk's encounter in ultimates vol 1 or in the ultimate avengers when the cap was being far more offensive.
ross' line about him doing it was more along the lines of blonsky just not getting killed rather than making any real way with the hulk.
getting kicked into a tree didn't help either.

This is because it's Blonsky, not Captain America attacking Hulk. Remember, Blonksy is an older man whose physical prowess is fading. Of course he'll be more on the defensive. Captain America however would be a different story altogether. Cap, being well preserved over the decades would still physically be a man in his late 20's/early 30's so he'd be more on the attack. My God, you are like Chicken Little always thinking the sky is falling here and disaster is around the corner. Can't you find anything positive from your experiences?

Age doesn't bit it, he was performing at a superhero's pace without anysort of any fade.
and the real difference would be in attitude rather than prowess. If wolverine was in the same situation, he'd be more aggressive than both even though you could argue he's not in as good as shapes.

Actually guys what happened with Blonsky being used defensively is this:
A) He had no shield, so he couldn't really attack him.
B) The purpose of Blonsky in the strategy was to pull Hulk back towards the cannons, as Ross states.
C) Marvel probably told Louis to not show off all of what Captain American can do so that they can do that for the actual Captain America movie (because if they show off what he can do now then there is little left to anticipate).

Zilla first of all, you shouldn't be in a cameo and nods thread if you haven't watched the film. Tsk tsk.
Also as a brit, we are downers plus I hate coming into threads were everyone just goes
'It was amazing'
'I loved it'
'10/10'
without any real balance to their arguments so I guess i act as a moral anchor on behalf of a whole thread sometimes and try and bring things down to earth with regards to everything else that has come before and normally it gets people thinking and talking and more balanced opinions start flowing afterwards with
'it was great but i can understand if people think....'
'or actually that thing november said i picked up but it didn't bother me'
I mean none of the things i'm saying are really that important but it's all to inspire debate so you have to go against the grain sometimes.
If you've noticed, I don't believe i've whined or said anything sucked and i've posted reasons to all my thoughts in an orderly manner. I hold no negativity towards this film, i gave it a 7.

If he had also got some slugs in, it would explain more why the hulk would want to kick him instead of what could actually be perceived as the hulk kicking an unarmed man in cold blood.
The rest of your points are totally plausible.

I stayed as well...just in case they threw something a little extra in there...and of course...the crowd that stuck around playfully "boo'd" ....who cares? You'll just have to see it again to catch all the extra un-obvious stuff...
now...i know its one of the more obvious nods but...great use of green throughout the movie...green lights...green objects...Banner sipping from a green bottle (of beer?) on the rooftop in the beginning...little things like that were fun...even if not intentional but I'm pretty sure it was.

The names go way too fast. We'll have to wait for the DVD (or a high quality bootleg maybe) before we're able to discern any of those names, I think.
I saw both Nick Fury's name and the Stark Enterprises logo in the opening credits, bit I don't know about much else.

The only connection he has with the movie is the Super Soldier serum being an important part of the story.

Besides all the Captain American serum talk, the Leader cameo, the restaurant Stanly's, Stan Lee's cameo (without a doubt my favorite of all his cameos), Lou Ferrigno's cameo, Lonely Man theme, S.H.I.E.L.D. database, and of course Tony Stark, is there anything else as far as comic/tv show nods?

If this is true (haven't seen the movie yet and probably won't be able to until next week. Which makes me hulk out. :bh:), then it's probably the closest we will get for years (if ever) of the X-men crossing into this "Marvel Movie Universe" (can we call it Universe 617?). Similar in a way to how you could see the names "Franklin Richards" in X-men 2.

Hi I just saw the movie and at the beginning where its showing the montage of files and stuff it shows a list of Known associates and there was only like 3 or 4 names it showed and one being Betty Ross but there were two that i saw that i dont know. Im not a hardcore fan of the hulk but i do love marvel so i was wondering if anyone can tell me if these names have any relevance in the comic books.
They went like this:
Samson, Dr. L: Associate of Dr. Ross
and
Jones, Richard "Rick": Occupation: Student
For this last one there were two lines more to him but they were blacked out.
So anybody know?
There was mention of a student named "McGee" who was a journalism student...who was an eye witness to the first Hulk incident.
This is of course a nod to reporter Jack McGee played by Jack Colvin in the original series.
As far as the known associates... Dr. Leonard Samson was Betty's boyfriend in the movie and a soon to be gamma irradiated superhero in the comics.
Rick Jones is the kid that Bruce Banner chases down and saves from the gamma bomb in the comics... just a nice tip of the hat.

OK, where's Captain America in the movie!!???
I am going back tomorrow, can someone tell me where to look for him?
Thanks!

CAPTAIN AMERICA IS NOT IN "THE INCREDIBLE HULK" THEATRICAL RELEASE. EVER.
There was a scene (that was cut from the movie and probably will be on the dvd) that showed Captain America. BUT it is NOT in the theatrical release - SO DON'T look for it!
ANTOINE X
06-13-2008, 08:51 PM
Ok I Think that's clear enough.:grin:
WAIT A MINUTE!! The following is a review over at comics2film.
It says Cap is in the movie:
Hulk re-boot is INCREDIBLE!!
Just came back from watching the new Hulk movie and it was worth every bit of the hype it's been getting! SO much better than the Ang Lee movie. With the exception of a few throw-away scenes that should have been left for the DVD extras, the dialogue was enough to move the story along, while nicely setting up the great action scenes that followed them.
If you were a fan of the original series, then you will definetely enjoy the many nods to that show, especially if you've been watching the Hulk reruns that have been playing all-week long like I have. In a way, this could almost be the movie version of the television series.
The special effects were great and the Hulk looked many times better than he did in the previous movie. CGI has come so far in the last couple of years that the line between real and computer-generated is getting blurrier every day.
Marvel is running on both engines this summer with Iron Man and the Hulk franchises being so good. Between the two movies, at least 3 other franchises were set up, namely Avengers(Ultimates?), Captain America, and the inevitable Thor movie that will have to be made. Actually, unless there was an Easter egg for Thor that I missed, I really didn't see any reference to the Thunder god but if you look closely, you will see that Captain America IS in the movie, as the director recently hinted at, and everyone already knows about the Tony Stark influence in this film as well.
To top it all off, the Hulk speaks in this one!! Go see this movie at once or else I will get angry. And you know what happens.....ahhh, I can't even bring myself to do it.

it was still AMAZING, but i wish his version would have been the one we saw
The Geek Vault
06-13-2008, 09:30 PM
I absolultly LOVED the Leader being in the movie! I don't know why but I thought that that was just an AMAZING nod! Also I liked the Stan Lee cameo in this one! a lot of the names on the computers and on t he college prof. board were nods I believe.
What's going on here????
Maybe he lied. Or he assumed that Emil Blonsky running around on super soldier serum counted as seeing Captain America.
As much as I enjoyed this movie, there is no doubt that I would much rather have seen Norton's version. If not for the fact that it's 70 minutes longer!
More Banner...more Hulk....C'mon!
Maybe he lied. Or he assumed that Emil Blonsky running around on super soldier serum counted as seeing Captain America.
I dunno, man. Maybe we just didn't catch it. Or maybe he is wrong...
Either way I'm going back tomorrow.
By the way, did they cut the final fight scene down?
I don't think it was 26 minutes long as Leterrier said it would be.
Do you really believe that one critic saw Captain America when thousands of people have seen the film and said he's not in it?
It's just not the case man.

1. Robert Downey Jr. cameo as Tony Stark @ The end was prefect . I loved it he basically owned a drunken General Ross .
2. The nod to The Avengers was sweet .
3. So was The Super Solider formula nod to Captain America
4. Loved The Con. Nick Fury & S.H.I.E.L.D. continuation from Iron Man
5. The Birth Of THE LEADER
6. Cameo of both Lou Ferrigno (The Original HULK) & Bill Bixby
7. Paul Soles as Stanley - (The 60's voice of The Amazing Spider-Man)
8. Stan "THE MAN" Lee

I'm not so much a fool, as I am a movie buff. I was curious, and I don't trust anyone's reviews but mine. But yes, The Happening sucked.
And I agree with you about Sterns. I'm really interested in how they'll pull The Leader off.

It's in the beginning. Bruce Banner (Ed Norton) is watching a show on TV. It's the Incredible Hulk show from the late 70's....:hehe: JK...He's watching another Bixby show called "The Courtship of Eddie's Father". A nice touch.

Again the leader scene also if you look at the Canister that Ross takes out, it says Dr. E so that was a little nod. Also one thing that confused me. When Tony goes he talks to Ross about the team forming... why does STark not track down Bruce to talk to him?
I was thinking the same thing, it would have been cool had Tony Stark been talking to Bruce Banner. But it made a little more sense that he would talk to Ross because it seemed in the end Banner had become a fugitive again.
I could be wrong but that's the impression I got.
Stark works for a branch of the government now, SHIELD. He meets up with Ross to say let's go get this "problem" of yours.
