Just noticed one of the novel's scenes is included in the trading card set:
Spalko and Mac
One plot point is that the skull will not communicate with Spalko, which frustrates her. During the convoy, she takes the skull from Oxley, who tries to get it back. Mac then watches as she attempts to stare into it. He doesn't believe in the psychic nonsense and she tells him of psionic experiments the USSR has been performing.
In one, baby rabbits were taken on a submarine and systematically killed. The mother rabbit was left on the shore and monitored using an EEG. At the precise death of each, the mother registered a strong reaction. Spalko explains:
"There is an organic mind-body link shared by all living creatures. If we could control that collective mind..."
Trading Card: Jungle Raiders
This gives us four deleted scenes that were filmed, and at least two that were dropped from the script. Anyone know of any further scenes included in the trading cards?
1. Mac's Life Threatened at Area 51
Seen in trading cards and video footage on official site
2. Indy Confronts Mac in Sedan
When Indy is pulled off the motorcycle and into the sedan, he discovers that Mac is among the occupants. This was edited out of the film, but is included in the trading cards:
Pic.
3. Motorcycle Chase Through the Football Stadium
As noted in the "Complete Making Of" book, this scene was in the shooting script, but dropped once they got on location.
4. Cemetery Warrior Fight
Indy using his whip has been well documented, in promotional videos, photos, and the trading cards.
5. Burial Chamber Collapse
Mutt crashing through the floor can be seen in concept art, and the scene's editing makes it appear that the stunt was originally included. Not sure if any photos exist, though.
6. Mac and Spalko
The jungle scene, as noted above.
