    It's always nice to see more from Harry Dean Stanton, but that scene was wisely cut. The movie doesn't need it.

    So the entire movie, the gag reel, the deleted scenes and the new short Item 47 are leaking all over the Internet...

    Think Disney will go on a rampage...

    The deleted scene posted above is already gone, so I'd say "yes."

    Don't worry guys, TA will sell very well on video no matter what.

    Also stop watching the deleted scenes and everything online! Why are you spoiling yourself before getting it on video? :p

    For the same reason I like to spoil myself when I sneak a bit of frosting off the cake when no one is looking. It's yummy and if Mom has a problem with it, she damn well should be paying more attention!

    I still eat the cake when it's sliced, though.

    Yes they have, and no, it is around 16 minutes IIRC.

    I'm still planning on getting that Phase One mega 10 disc set.
    I wonder if I might find that on E-bay at some point?

    Did you guys see this news yet?

    The briefcase mega blu-ray set might now be delayed/cancelled

    Why didn't Marvel just go with a generic briefcase design? Will those people that preordered the set be getting a VERY limited set that will never be released ever again, or will their entire order simply be cancelled?

    Saw it, and it seemed it wasn't affecting the release... until today.

    - Amazon has stopped taking preorders and it has the item under review
    http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0083SBMGW

    - Disney removed the briefcase pictures from its site and modified the description:
    http://www.phase1avengersassembled.com/detail_1100660__AVENGERS.html
    http://forum.blu-ray.com/showthread.php?t=198188&page=27

    - And users from bluray.com are reporting getting information from retailers

    Well, you gotta excuse the British for having something else called the Avengers that predates Marvel's super team.

    :rolleyes:

    I think most of the Brits are clever enough to know the difference.

    Ouch! Forgotten already? You were just down ther
    Yeah, except that wasn't an issue here in the U.S. The 1998 Ralph Fiennes movie based on the British spy series was also called The Avengers and everyone is expected to know the difference. Although, in some circles, the new 2012 movie is called Marvel's The Avengers.

    Regardless, it's not the first time that two completely different movies have shared the same title. Gladiator was the name for both a movie about ancient Roman gladiators starring Russell Crowe and a boxing movie starring Cuba Gooding Jr. Notorious was the name of both an Alfred Hitchcock thriller and a biopic about rapper Notorious B.I.G. Jack & Jill was the title of both a recent Adam Sandler comedy and a short-lived TV series on the WB starring Amanda Peet.

    A new deleted scene with Steve Rogers trying to acclimate to the 21st century.

    I actually wish we could've kept this one. And the appearance by Stan Lee is awesome. Who says he can't have more than one cameo per movie?
