[QUOTE="Snarf Zagyg, post: 9385022, member: 7023840"] This discussion brings up an interesting question. Director's Cuts that are [I]worse[/I] that the theatrical cut. To head off one issue- I will put discussion of Snyder and JLA off-limits. I think that the "Snyder Cut" was a better experience, but it also had a lot of new footage and runtime that could never be widely released in theaters. Also? Let's not discuss Blade Runner. Okay, here's my top three- Apocalypse Now. Don't get me wrong. I love some of the extra footage in the various extended cuts. But as a movie, the theatrical release is the best one. Donnie Darko. Nope. The director's cut is just not great. And finally? Anything revisited later by Lucas and Spielberg. Star Wars and ET? Yep. It's not even that all the changes are that bad, it's more that there is a reason that people stop messing with a text when it's done. [/QUOTE]
