Comic Nods and Easter Eggs Thread

[Eddy Brock Jr.]

my favorite cameo of Stan's was in Iron Man, as Hugh Hefner.

btw, in TIH, i think there was a nod to Stan Lee with that name of the italian restaurant Stanley's. as in "Stan Lee's"

Yep, and the guy from this restaurant also look like Stan

And that same actor just happened to be the voice of Peter Parker and Spider-Man in the old cartoon from the 60's.

WOW, I love marvel for all of these. They don't leave their marvel contributors out to dry when it comes movie time. They have a list of good talent, and use them if they can for their benefits, the talents, and the Fans.

GOOD *****!!!!

 

[Clark Kent]

Now that other people are picking up on it, i'm feeling less crazy.

Me too, .

And the voice of Bruce Banner in the old cartoon from the '60s.

So that means Betty's boyfriend was probably not Doc Samson then. Just some shrink, I don't think they even mention him by name.

Dr Samson is Betty's boyfriend.

In the opening credits it has Samson listed under Banner's known associates as:

Dr Samson, Leonard
Dr Ross/Relationship

Something like that but it definatley says Samson is in a relationship with Betty.

+ Ty Burrel was credited as Leonard in the end credits.

 

[Fanticon]

maybe this was mentioned maybe it wasn't...but Ross is in his office at one point...middle of the movie and on his computer screen...which has a green tint...I think the desktop background was Captain America's shield...I saw the movie again last night and saw that part and couldn't remember any one pointing it out...however, my friend thought it was just an army star...but it had a circle around it so I don't know. Guess we'll have to wait for the dvd or other confirmed reports.

 

[Firehawk]

He said "HULK SMASH!!"

 

[Syncos]

He said "HULK SMASH!!"

Wait, really? How could I have missed that one?

 

[Obi-Ron]

it definatley says Samson is in a relationship with Betty.

I don't recall ever seeing that.

+ Ty Burrel was credited as Leonard in the end credits.

He was a shrink named Leonard, but not necessarily Leonard Samson.

 

[Sarg92]

I don't recall ever seeing that.

Trust me on it.

I checked and it definatly says in the opening credits that Dr Leonard Samson is in a relationship with Betty Ross.

 

[Rac]

He was a shrink named Leonard, but not necessarily Leonard Samson.

I knew you'd say that...

 

[Midnight Black]

Why the heck else have him be named Leonard?????

It's not like they couldn't have chose a different name, and plus they don't even say it in the movie that we see. SO why go to all that trouble to put it in the notes...if he isn't Leonard S.

 

[bullets]

Just got back from seeing TIH again...and you guys who think you are seeing Spider-Man or DareDevil are trying waaaaaaaaaaaaaay too hard. It was some guy Abomination threw.

I was watching incredibly closely from when Banner hit the ground to when Abom and Hulk collided and there was no comic book reference of any kind.

So, quote me on this one...forget what you think you saw, it was just a guy Abom throws.

It was Samuel Sterns

 

[Obi-Ron]

Trust me on it.

I checked and it definatly says in the opening credits that Dr Leonard Samson is in a relationship with Betty Ross.

If that's the case, then yeah, Ty definitely=Samson.

As little as you learn about him in the rest of the movie, he could be anybody.

 

[smashmode]

So can anyone confirm/deny the captain america nods?

THe one about his 'steve rogers found' being on headline of a paper? And his portrait up at the base?

 

[Shonkie]

I did not see this, of course I Was not looking for it.. but I would hav to think it would be someone else besides Spiderman, how would they explain Spidey being in the area but not sticking his nose in this fight between two guys destroying buildings such.

Daredevil (not that I know much about him) to me would seem like the more level headed one "Hmm Not much I can do here, these guys would kill me". Of course They probably dont care and want people to think its SM anyways (if it is indeed there).

I too saw it

 

[SFII]

Or have Lou go in to try and get Norton out of the computer lab and have him hold back a big group of students in a heroic way. Then he goes in and they dont show it but Norton hulks out and burst out of where Lou went in. And all the students stand amazed thinking that Lou "the security guard" turned into that Hulk. That would have been cool...

that would've been great.

to take it a step further, they should've had Ferigno turn into his 1980's Hulk. and then have 2008 Hulk crush him. lol

 

[ironwez20]

lol that wouldnt be cool , i would love to see venom vs hulk though

 

[Hiruu]

What about the dogs...arrghh...bad flashback!

 

[DoubleM]

Well, Im not sure if this is "worth-the-while", but in the oe scene were Hulk wanted to fight the thunder, and threw the rock, I just have the slightest fealling that Thor saw the Hulk do that (in other words, Hulk tried to start a fight, and I think Thor heard and saw it.)

Your reaching Buddy

 

[RockSP]

As little as you learn about him in the rest of the movie, he could be anybody.

That was done purposely. They removed the scenes were they referred to him by name so they can cast someone else as Samson. Or so I've heard.

 

[Norm3]

Your reaching Buddy

I'll say thats one hell of a reach. People are seeing things that aren't there now.

 

[KevanG]

He said "HULK SMASH!!"

I saw that part and just went "YES!!!" It was neat to finally hear him say that .
I'm pretty sure he said Puny human in the first film but hearing HULK SMASH was deeply gratifying

 

[E.Brock]

Thomas Jane should have played Cap in the avengers/cap movie and not wasted on the punisher

 

[RockSP]

I'm pretty sure he said Puny human in the first film

Only in a dream sequence, though.
