"Incredible Hulk" Blu-ray: Planned with 70 Minutes of Cut Footage? (1 Viewer)

[Eric F]

Hulk say, "No extra footage??!?! Hulk SMASH!!!!! ARRGHGHGHH!!!!!!!"

 

[TravisR]

Not to mention that most comic book movies get a re-release or an extended cut since the studios know they have a pre-existing fanbase to continually sell their movies too.

 

[Doug Schiller]

He also said, in that interview, the Captain America was in the film, I believe his words were "You will see him".

I take everything he says with a grain of salt.

To speculate on the 70 minutes of deleted scenes (I don't think you will ever see an extended cut, that would make it seem like the director didn't like his final cut) there seems to be a 3 disc set for the SD version.
Why would you need 3 discs unless you had a boat load of content.

 

[TravisR]

Yeah, extended cuts are really a rarity today.

 

[Jari K]

"Incredible Hulk - Dir cut" WILL arrive at some point. It´s a done deal, I´m sure. Just a question of "when"..

 

[Brian Borst]

I thought I heard that Edward Norton came in to edit his version of the film, and that one got released?
I definitely heard that the director had to edit down his version, because the studio wanted the film to be around 110 minutes? (it became 114, I think). So if 70 minutes are correct, I don't know, but there is a longer director's cut out there.
I hope we do get it, because I can't wait to see Captain America frozen in the ice. I was a bit disappointed I didn't see that in the theatrical version. The film itself was great, though.

The aforementioned G4 interview with Louis Leterrier is available here. He claims that all of the deleted scenes will be on the DVD, but that they will not be incorporated into the film itself. "For me, there is only one cut of the movie," he says.

He also addresses the Norton/editing issue.

 

[Brian Borst]

Wow, there aren't many directors who actually go out and say that the theatrical cut is their final cut. So, we won't see an extended one (which is fine, if the director insists the film doesn't need one) but the Cap scene should be in the bonus material. Any way, it's fine by me.

 

[Martin Henry]

Actually, it's the interview I'm referring to,which was done during a press-junket to promote the film. Sorry I didn't cross the Ts and dot the lower-case Js. There's always someone anal-retentive enough to point out others shortcomings, isn't there?

 

[TravisR]

When they do an extended cut he'll just say "I was happy with the theatrical cut but this version adds more depth to the characters and a bigger look at the world of the Hulk." It's not like that's an uncommon statement.

 

[Camper]

Once again here are the deleted scenes that will be on the Blu-ray/DVD.

They are in the British 'speeded up' format and will total about 50 minutes after adjusting the time for the US speed.
The 'Alternate opening' will be one bonus section and the rest of the deleted in another.

THE INCREDIBLE HULK - SCENE-

 

[Camper]

Here are the individual breakdowns of the deleted scenes..........
You can see they include all the chatacter stuff Norton wanted in.......

The director specifically said some of the deleted stuff was great and some was lousy. So any future longer cut will be a lot less than 50-70 minutes longer--unless he puts back in even the 'lousy' stuff .

It's probably just a rental for me until the inevitable dir's cut comes out. Who knows? Maybe we'll eventually get 3 different cuts (to include Norton's).

[sarcasm]Yay! More U Control![/sarcasm]

 

[Jari K]

This should be at least interesting: Commentary with Director Louis Leterrier and Tim Roth. Then again, I doubt that Leterrier reveals that much at this point..

 

[Eric F]

In The Hulk Returns (aka The Hulk Gets the Blues) I'd like to see The Hulk vs The Cookie Monster in a no holds barred cage match.

 

[Jesper Hall]

I thought that increased speed wasn't a problem in Bluray?

 

[Jari K]

I guess he´s talking about those running times (in PAL-format in BBFC-site)? Or something? I guess PAL for Camper is "British 'speeded up' format". It has many names..

I believe most of the (SD based) extras are in "NTSC", even in the European Blu-ray-releases (with some exceptions, of course).

 

[Jim_K]

Yeah, tell me about it. Nothing like the feeling of being a monkey in a lab experiment.
