Spoilers:
Since Justice League, the discussions of Director’s Cuts have been at an all-time high. Even though it’s been a thing since the 60’s, and continues to affect movies that were initially released in the late 1920’s. But as we wait for Zack Snyder’s apparently definitive “Rebel Moon” versions, let’s look back at some examples where a new edit to a film made it measurably better, and when they made a movie significantly worse. While Ridley Scott and Zack Snyder most commonly utilize the re-release gimmick, other greats like Coppola, Spielberg, Cameron and more have also attempted it with varying degrees of success. We also discuss extended editions, unrated versions, alternate endings, mythical assembly cuts, and much more!
Unfortunately we had some issues recording the beginning of the episode, so we drop you right in the middle to share our recent guest appearances on I Was a Teenage Film Snob and We Love Horror. A new milestone is crossed in the Movie Draft update, we rep some new merch, and we (very briefly) discuss Taylor Swift.
