Oh man Come With Me with Puff Daddy is a classic.

 

Had a friend who did not know Led Zeppelin so when he heard the Kashmir riff, he'd be like "Hey it's that Puff Daddy song!"

 

Is that why you demand Kashmir in every trailer?

Oh, wait...

How different would superhero movie history be if the MI2 filming had not run long?

IMDb tells me the workprint copy of Mission Impossible 2 was 4 hours long and John Woo's first cut was 3 and a half hours long.

This CD was purchased with my allowance. Randy fuckin' Edelman scoring the great Stallone as Kit Latura.

has there ever been a time when a film was modified during release?  Say it releases 4,000 prints, it is a 100 minute movie, and its original cut was made to be 120 minutes.  Would the makers be able to have the power to refurbish a scene and use the deleted footage to change a movie during release, and the newer version slowly gets prints leaked out, and the oriignal 4,000 prints get destroyed.  Then they sell an official copy for home release or something that has even more ever so slight changes from the theatrical release.  Various nuances.

Venezuela transformation in North Korea complete.

[Dementeleus]

What? No, that’s insane. 

 

But there have been video releases that were slightly different cuts than the theatrical version: BATTLEFIELD: EARTH, for one. 

 

Also, I seem to remember that back in the early VHS days sometimes films would be trimmed slightly to avoid having to use longer tapes.

In India in the 90s, a lot of movies had extended cuts with an extra scene or song released in theaters after 10 weeks or so if the movie was a hit. Doesn't happen nowadays though, but was really common in the 90s.

Wait...so if I were to watch Battlefield Earth, it’d be the improved version of the film?
