We have scored some pretty sweet HULK news from an interview collider had with Louis Leterrier – check it out!
During my roundtable conversation, Louis dropped a bombshell of awesomeness. Yeah, I used awesomeness. He said that the upcoming Blu-Ray of the Incredible Hulk would have 70 minutes of additional footage! Yes 70! Of course he said the footage was cut for a reason but for fans of the film and Marvel movies, knowing you‘re going to get so much additional footage is just something really cool to look forward to.
The other bit of news is I pressed him on the Captain America cameo that he talked about last week. He again reiterated that Captain America is in the movie, but he would not drop where he‘s in it.
I am pumped to see a Captain America cameo. I am wondering who it will be, because the person will also star in the upcoming Cap’n picture. If I see Matthew McConaughey wearing the red, white and blue – I would whip my theatre drink in the face of the Pope himself out of sheer excitement!
For those of you that enjoy extra footage, you will have over an hour to dig through! I am glad they trimmed lots out of the film. More often than not, a liberal pair of pruning sheers will do more good than harm. Trim down the story, keep it tight, and make the extra footage available as extras.
Most of the time when they add in deleted scenes – I see why they took them out in the first place. I bought a copy of Kingpin on VHS years ago and they added a few scenes that were not in the theatrical release. I was pissed that I had to watch them – because they all sucked. Having the option to watch them is cool, forcing me to do so is not.
