Could This Animatronic Hulk Have Saved Ang Lees Movie?
I wonder what could have been if Ang Lee had decided to use the animatronic Hulk created by special effects genius Steve Johnson in his movie. Would it have been any better?
Johnson has released this amazing video from his youtube page which contains footage of the never-used real-life robot Hulk he (and his team) built for the 2003 Ang Lee film Hulk. It looks very realistic and actually moved.
My guess is that you are shaking your fist in the air right about now cursing Ang Lee for now using this bit of cool special effects. Stop long enough to watch the videos below and let us know your thoughts!
Johnson has worked on a number of great films including The Abyss and Ghostbusters. The YouTube vid below gives you a little more background on Johnson and his reasoning behind sharing these Hollywood secrets.
