That is the strangest trailer I have ever seen. It's more like a slide show with some very odd shots (Nancy jumping).
I remember when this came out it in 1976 made the cover of TIME that read something like "Here Comes King Kong!". Inside was a photo spread of Jessica Lange being fingered by Kong, and in one of the shots you could see her bare breast. I still remember in my high school library that photo had been cut out, probably NOT by the librarian but by some horny teenaged boy (no, it wasn't me).
I am not sure where this theory comes from wherein, when an actor turns 18 the producers have to pay that actor more. An actors salary on a TV show or movie is based on TONS of things, including the actor's q rating, the importance of the actor and character in the show, and the ability of the actor and the actor's agent to negotiate a deal.
The fact is that Riggs had been told his character would be on the show for at least the next three years, and then Riggs was told his character was going to die. Something happened between part 1 and part 2 of this scenario. I was just wondering what it could have been. But I am just about 100% positive it was not, "He's turning 18 and we'll have to pay him more". I am sure he was making pretty good money being in one of the hit shows of the last decade, and there has been no rumors of him holding out for more money ala Seinfeld or the voice actors on The Simpsons.
" (although his father may have been a bit of a stage father)"
I think you are close to hitting the nail on the head. I heard his father was doing "Walking Dead" tours, bringing tourists to filming locations, and charging a hefty fee, with the big lure that it was the real father of "Carl". I can't think that the producers would have liked that.
So, I pointed out actual collusion between Democrats and Russian actors. I was not posting my opinion and I was not speculating. I posted FACTS. What FACTS are there that prove that Donald Trump or his campaign colluded with Russia?
I recall hearing that Brando did not even learn his lines, he had cue cards positioned all over the set.
I am wondering if this will include the footage that was added to the movie for its first network airing. Similar to the 1976 KING KONG, the network added footage that was not in the original release and has not been available (to my knowledge) on any of the home video releases.
I was not aware that there were two versions of the film with different running times. Do you know what scenes are cut or added?
