Of all the features listed; I am most excited about the digital copy of the movie that comes in addition to the player version. This is handy for those that want to bring the movie with them on a hard drive, or play it on their Ipod. When I first heard that they were planning to do this, I was quite pleased and it’s cool to now see it featured on the disks.

I also look forward to seeing Ed Norton talk about the Hulk so I can get a peek into his thoughts and make the connections between them, and the story of the film. Hearing him talk about the character may also reveal clues about how he will proceed with the Hulk from this point forward.

Nothing else gets me too jazzed, but then again, I’m not big on special features. Sometimes I enjoy noodling through them, but more often than not – I have no interest. For those of you that are fans of special features – is there anything listed that you are interested in laying your eyes upon?
