Every deleted scene I've watched for this movie made it better. I don't know who got a hold of this for the final cut, this explains so much about the movie.
kreg bear because the lighting is off for the cuts, the acting is amateur while paired with the almost "ghost writer" out of character dialogue, the interaction itself doesn't feel organic but rather forced into your face to squeeze emotion out of the viewer in an attempt to feel more dramatic when the lead dies, and a conversation between them like this doesn't fit into the movies tone what so ever.
This is actually true for me, I have two friends I have known since I was 6 years old (I'm 18 now) but when I turned 14 my fam moved to a different city and hour away. I still kept in touch with them, making it a tradition that we meet once a year during the holiday for a few days. Last year for his birthday his parents took us plus maybe 10 other teens to a hotel that had a famous waterpark. On the third night the group hopped on the bus to go from the arcade to the hotel rooms but my two closest friends and I walked back and during that 20 minute talk I had the deepest conversation of my life.
This scene gives some context to when he says the tank is his home, he means it's the only home he has left and he refuses to abandon it. He also didn't explicitly want to die, he just, didn't care if he did.
This actually makes a person understand why he was so eager the hold the crossroad. He had nothing to live for, he killed his fiancee and his brother. Enough to lose your will to live. Why would anybody sane delete this scene?
i think this form of respite was also dragged out much longer than the rest of the scenes, it just didn’t flow well with the pacing and overall structure
"The judge told me to go die for my country...The best advice I ever got." Christ that's one of the most powerful lines I've heard in any movie...period
That was my thinking. It explains why they deleted it at least, but I wish they kept something in about his backstory. It explains his motives quite a bit more.
@@NoName-fx9zi tbh, after I saw these deleted scenes I was impressed by the editing that made me think he did a good job. (Not bad by any means but no Brad Pitt as Wardaddy)
"Your a strange one norman my brothers name was norman" that line ties it all together and the reason why he didnt want norman in his crew and doesnt want him to die at the end
Probably filmed it with the idea of having "death" be a soldier or something like that. Glad they cut that, but sad to see Don's character's backstory be cut with it
The backstory about the drunk driving accident and Norman being the same name as Sergeant Collier's brother makes sense... they could have done without Norman's out-of-place dialogue and still revealed that.
Why, oh, why they deleted THIS scene?! It changes EVERYTHING! Wardaddy is not some superhero who got his burned back in a fight against a Tiger or a Paner, but because of some stupid accident which, actually, was his fault. He is just a guy from America, who was sent to the war by a judge's order. Which makes him even a bigger hero. Whoever decided to delete this dialog is a complete moron!
Yurishch I completely agree with him, sum ppl want their lives ended with sum dignity, even with all their faults, even if they had a chance to end it. . . . Sum ppl are terrified and even called " coward or pussy way out" but it's there way out and if they want it. Who's to say other wise?????
Well if you have adeath wish you are not much of a hero. Willing to stay and fight till the end if you have something to live for thats what makes a hero. Keeping this scene would make no snese for final last stand.
I’m not a fan of the Norman dialogue but I agree with you on Wardaddy’s they should of left it in. The Concentration camp thing I feel could fit in the movie well somewhere but I’m not sure if it’s here.
Likely cut for pacing. They created a bit too much space in this scene. While it's interesting for character development, both Sgt. Collier and Norman get plenty of that while advancing the story, making this a prime scene to cut. In my opinion, anyway. Take that for what it's worth.
The editor really fucked this movie up. If they'd left this scene and the scene with Grady losing it before the final battle, and the film would have had a point. Brad Pitt in the final cut is a John Wayne hero. These scenes show he's dead inside, allowing him to convince his men to follow him to certain death.
I hate to bring back a six year old post but he's neither a hero nor dead inside. He's a hurting, broken man who hates himself and does both right and wrong things for right and wrong reasons
Man. This scene is fantastically well acted by Pitt, the mannerisms and him choking holding back his emotions is beautifully done. But while appreciating how well this scene is done, I can understand why they left it out of the movie. I think the bond the crew eventually reached was more impactful due to the lack of words spoken to each other. It made more sense for the time, tough up and shut up. So it made those moments like the breakfast scene with the two german women far more impactful, when you see the crew is obviously a shell of their former selves.
@@danwilliams1920 I don't think an opinion can be wrong, your free to think it fits in the film. I just don't, It doesn't add much if anything. In fact (IMO) it actually takes away from the film. It forces a story to build upon character traits that were fine as is. You don't NEED to know why Pitts character doesn't want to come back from the war, and this story is a forced way of giving you that explanation. And in all honesty it's just too on the nose, it feels like something that was written specifically to make his final choice make more sense, but all it ends up doing is taking away from the characters and making it feel more cheap.
@@EboyNxtDoor I agree & it’s a little out of the genre & too convenient. The scene gives drama and fantasy almost if you understand what I mean, while the movie is supposed to be realistic. Also I think it absolutely changes the message of the story. Before you get the theme of duty and bravery but with the cut scene you start to think it was guilt and desperation for redemption driving him to stay and fight.
Because it completely contradicts Norman's character and makes him a mutant who can tell the future and compel others to reveal personal details. Stupid scene.
Jeff II You can easily leave that Norman part out. The Rose story looks edited and ready to go but appears to be left out at the last minute to cut on runtime.
Because the continuity of this scene is possibly the worst I've ever witnessed, the background keeps changing from forest to field and back each time they cut from Norman to Don
@@7.62x51mm The Easy Eight, like all the M4A3 versions, was powered by a 32-valve, four-camshaft, twin-spark, 1100 cubic inch all-aluminum flatplane V8 putting out 500 horsepower. You better believe that thing roars.
Let's get this straight. Don was from southern Oklahoma and had a girlfriend and a brother who were named Rose and Norman. The three were at a dance one night and Don got drunk and fought a native American descent. After police showed up, they fled and Don wrecked the car that they were in, killing both Rose and Norman. He was then arrested for manslaughter. The judge sent him into the army as punishment instead of prison believing that we would die in the war. Don met Bible, Coonass, Gordo, and Red at tank school and would later become friends and leader of their Sherman M4. At some point in Kasserine Pass, Don pooped his pants after there tank was first knocked out, according to Coonass. The crew was then reassigned to a newer M4A3E8 which was better at tank combat. They named it, 'Fury'. After landing at Normandy, they witnessed the aftermath of D-Day. Before advancing further into France, the army bombed and fired artillery on the Germans. When they moved, they came across open fields of dying horses from the artillery. They shot the horses dead in response. Gordo said that the horses sounded like children screaming. In 1945, after being a sole surviving tank of a battle, Fury's radio turret battery was broken and Red was killed in action which broke moral of the crew. Even when Norman was introduced as a new gunner. To sum it up, this is why his crew is battle hardened and he rides them. He hates the Nazis because they are killers who fail to learn the mistake he made. He shows some level of guilt and is very disgusted with himself. But he put the evil inside him to good use.
No one knows they are gonna die, he didn't know they were gonna die, watch the film he tells them to go and head for a treeline to be safe. But his crew step up to show that they won't leave him to die alone. That't not a selfish leader but a dedicated crew
He knew it was one tank vs a whole SS division. He knew they weren't going to make it out alive and he knew his crew couldn't abandon him. He put the lives of his men at stake because he wanted to go down fighting himself. That's selfish.
Norman wanted to know, but he didn’t realize he was gonna hear a story about Wardaddy accidentally murdering his little brother and the woman he loved.
Said he had a gift ,he knew things before they happened . Why didn't he tell Pitt when he started talking I already know cause I knew you were gonna say it . And why didn't he tell them "I really think we should give that crossroads a miss ? In other words Norm like all Norman's is full of shit
No body at this point (Normandy to early 1945) would've had the same crew since 1942. The scarring may've been from a pre war incident, but the grim statistics and training SOP would've scattered these veterans to other units by then, maybe in 2nd armor, but not in the same tank, FFS
2:29 A heart breaking moment seeing Wardaddy trying to hold his emotions inside. It is guilt that drives him in the war, not patriotism or bravery his crew would have thought.
Bro everytime I've seen the deleted scenes it makes the movie better. When norman asks Gordo how it feels to kill it adds to the story. When boyd rants about other soldiers dying in front him to top it adds to the story. Now this. Bro i'm mad every deleted scene wouldve added to it
Reminds me of Saving Private Ryan and the dialogue scenes between the soldiers. When Uppam became very friendly with a German, then grows the balls to finally kill him at the end.
They should have kept the Rose scene in the movie. It would have made the scene where War Daddy says "This is my home," way more impactful. Whoever decided to cut this the Rose scene really screwed the movie over.
I disagree. This scene was shit and sees Norman, not only be the most improbable coincidence(same name and attitude as WarDaddy's brother), and display an arrogance that he shows nowhere else in the movie, but as a fortune-telling mutant that has the latent ability to compel strangers to tell their darkest secrets and personal stories. This was one of the most jarring deleted scenes and I'm so glad it wasn't in the movie. It doesn't explain any of the movie except for a single scene, in which we see Don's back. This scene and the scene at the end where WarDaddy and Norman are the last ones alive can't possibly exist in the same movie and it be good. Awful scene cut by smart editors.
I think nearly every part of this scene, bar Norman's out of character stance in regards his clairvoyance, or whatever it is, could have been kept. Maybe don't keep the fact that they're both called Norman also. The rest sets the stage for the ending pretty good in my opinion.
I think this scene was one that was recorded in two separate places because the actors were not on the same set. At 00.50 you don't see the two in the same frame. Also, the sun and shadows are on the opposite sides if each actor's faces. This scene also explains many things in the movie that were left out of the original. At least they included the outtakes with the movie. The acting in this scene was awesome especially of the "kid". However, the lighting sequences on the faces were completely off. Anybody who studied photography 101 can tell the sunlight on the faces is out of sequence and on the wrong sides of the faces of each actor. I think the scene is excellent, but maybe the director was afraid the lighting was so obvious that he had to exclude the cut from the film. Of course, they could have "re-shot" the scene, but for whatever reason, they kept the film on the editor's cutting floor.
Heartbreaking. Ive watched this movie many times. To me, had it been left in, it would have been the most moving scene of the movie. It shows, perhaps better than any war movie I have ever seen, how so many brave young men had become resigned to their inevitable fate. Yet, knowing this, still carried out their duty as soldiers. Often times...for reasons they could barely understand. Bravery... no doubt. But I believe that often time, a brave act is not anticipated. This scene showed us what it was like to display bravery in the face of future, inevitable death . I feel this scene went far beyond just simple bravery. Yet despicably, these brave men and women are the ones who still fight and die in our Nation's Wars only to be thrown into its trash heap.
The Rose part is a tragedy that it got cut but I understand the reason for the second half with Norman. It doesn't fit his character at all and it almost jumps the shark with the entire movie. They should have just left Brad Pitt's part in though.
If you've seen "a river runs through it", the back story seems to be a calling to that movie. The timeline of when he was younger, perfectly matches too
My great grandfather fought in Germany during WW2. They were in a village when they were then attacked by some Germans. They even had tanks. At the end of the battle my grandfather wasn't to be seen. They then found a scrap of his helmet with his initials on it. They then wrote home explaining how he was apparently hit my a tank...he had a week left of service.
This scene was shit and sees Norman, not only be the most improbable coincidence(same name and attitude as WarDaddy's brother), and display an arrogance that he shows nowhere else in the movie, but as a fortune-telling mutant that has the latent ability to compel strangers to tell their darkest secrets and personal stories.

I agree with @JeffII but with a little less ..disdain? :) It's actually got some great acting by Pitt when he describes the wreck....but the passage where Norman claims to be a clairvoyant is lame. I guarantee they cut it more to remove Norman's lines than Collier's backstory.
SafenKD I wrote several paragraphs, but since you can't formulate the beginning or the end of a sentence, I can understand how daunting a task reading multiple paragraphs is for you. Your sentence in unintelligible, but if your point is, "Well it's the plot of the movie," I agree. However, this scene is *_not_* part of the movie. It was cut. So, thanks for making my point for me. ;)
@@woodjamin LMAO you came back 2 months later with a slightly different username to say that? Take your own advice. It's just some comments. Let it go.
This is the second deleted scene that essentially makes the movie make more sense. As to why he does what he does at the end. Between the last one I watched where he says "home? What would I do at home?" and now this story about killing his love. It explains why he wanted to die in his tank at the end. I originally thought it was just jingoistic American propaganda about how tough our soldiers were, but there was a real, emotional point to it.
Yeah, in a movie like this with a director like Tarantino he'll have to many great scenes to be able to fit into the movie. Now with a movie like the last Jedi however, I can think of a large number of scenes that should've been deleted.
I kind of get this one, Norman's psychic powers aside as good a backstory as this is I kind of prefer him as a normal guy not someone that in a way actually wants to be there and to die.
the pause after he mentions what happened to rose is so well done by brad pitt, you can tell the charcter is playing out exactly the scene in his head because of his PTSD.
Man, what an important scene. If they cut it due to time constraints they could of cut it at 3:15 and we'd all understand and feel why he chose to do what he did. Which is to die in his "home" because he has nowhere else to go!
Keep all of this apart from Normans comments, it makes him appear too meta or hardened than he should've been. Other than that, this would've strengthened the movie
They should of left the part in where he talks about his haunting mistake that led to him joining the Army. It develops and explains SSG Collier’s character pretty good. Now you know why he feels dead on the inside with no reason to live or have a fear of death. Most normal Soldiers attempt to survive even if their dedicated to duty.
I watched a river runs through it for the first time and the links to this movie seem like more than coincidence. The timeline matches, his brother Norman, the Indian he fought may have been related to the girl he dated, his drinking problem..etc
It's was always dumbfounding to me . While in service how we've always treated a new member to a squad/fire team. They'd have to die or nearly die to get respected.
There are 2 reasons why they hate new recruits. 1. They think the new guys can get them killed in the field and so on of many mistakes. 2. They dont wanna be so close to them because they could possibly think that they wont Last very long.
I can understand cutting the second bit, turning Norman into some spiritual phrophet is a bit dumb, but they should’ve kept don’s story and him saying his brother’s name was Norman, because it explains why he didn’t want Norman to be in his tank, because if he died he’d feel like it was his fault and like he’d killed his brother again
I know they wanted to make the movie more direct and within a reasonable time frame, but wow! These deleted scenes give it more depth and character context. I wish I could find a version of the film with all these scenes included.
They should have kept this scene. The nugget of gold that is historically accurate especially back in that time depending on age and the crime you committed, was being given the option to either go to jail or go to war. This line about being given the option of “go to war or go to jail” are sung in the Marching cadences used in Recruit Training Commands in our branches of armed services.
I loved this scene, apart from the ...call??? bit??? "I see things, people tell me things, you're going to die very soon". That just took away the whole realistic effect of the film, made it seem like a fantasy xD or something.
I'm not a Superstitious person, however, the whole Caul myth seems to have some truth to it. And plus those are just regular people. They might believe things, just like you and I.
It could also be a feeling that you can't explain and I believe in it because the night my grandpa left I told him not to go because I had a weird feeling and then he ends up dead in a car crash so something like that is quite possible even in war
They removed the feelings of every man and boy who went to war, shouldn’t ever have been deleted! No matter the tone the scene it gives a feeling of why some went to war because they had nothing left at home! Editing in this was awful that explained what and why every veteran carried with them, and had to live with it in surviving this horrendous war of good v evil in every part. They thought the demons would die there but they survived and came home for us all to never forget what they did for us all, the greatest generation without doubt!
More on Norman being “born in the caul”: sometimes a baby is born with some of the amniotic sac clinging to its head; Cajun folk tradition is that such babies have “the sight”...meaning dreams, visions, ‘knowing things’. Tell kids stuff like that about themselves, true or false, it’s gonna change how they look at things...and people *do* in fact tell such kids things they don’t tell others. Like Norman said, it’d happened before. It’s WHY he said “you don’t have to tell me this”: a car accident would have answered the question, but Norman was told much more than that. Saying that told WD that Norman understood how deep that came from. That’s what makes the scene. Cut it there
Ah I appreciate that lil tid bit of info helped fill some holes for me damn what a great scene literally every cut scene I've seen makes everything alot better
Movie works a lot better without the monologue. Seeing the burn is enough. Implying the family bond works better and without the dialogue the pacing of the relationship works a lot better. Telling Don he will die… nah, good cuts.
This (like all the other deleted scenes) is a good scene, it's well written and the acting is amazing. I believe the reason it was cut is because of continuity and authenticity. Norman being the bow gunner would not have been out of his fighting position while Fury was moving
I'm so glad they deleted this. This dialogue could've easily ruined the movie for me, it forcibly makes one vulnerable and the other a saint. Maybe he could've subtly mentioned Rose but rest of the background is unnecessary, people turn cold in war you don't need any other reason. Also the last dead bodies bit was pretty chilling, that should've been in the movie.
A director's cut would've been nice. This completely shifts the character. It's better. Why would they HALF show Top's humanity, fear, and regret throughout the film? This shows WHY FURY is his home!!! He has nothing left on Earth. He watched everything he loved crumble before his eyes by his own hands. He is the way he is because he's already dead inside. He has nothing left to lose. It explains why a rough man like him wants to help Norman survive, and even explains the scene with the girls. The second half of this, I understand. Everthing but Top saying his brother's name "was" Norman. That kind of sheds a bit of light on his attitude toward Norm the entire campaign, which otherwise is hard to place.
This is actually one of the deleted scenes I understand why they cut it. Norman left his character a bit here. Was given too much to say. that’s not to say he’s suppose to be some voiceless wimp, but it’s just out of his already established character to start talking like he’s been on the front for years, and has all this wisdom. It just felt out of place. Brad Pitts character’s story did feel like it was sad to leave that out, but also I think they left it out cuz the writing was too rough. It wasn’t as well put as other dialogue in this film, and was too revealing of his character which is some shrouded mystery. I like WW2 movie writing to be left exactly that. Mysterious. It worked wonders in Saving Private Ryan, and in fact was deeply rooted in some pivotal scenes, like the whole plot of the regiments pool on where the captain was from and who he is. Which they later revealed only to give the perspective on how war has diminished his past to seem so irrelevant.
I can't believe they didn't add this in the original cut that went to theater's. This was a very emotional development of one of the main characters and they just cut it out like who cares. Really sad because I believe showing Brad Pitt character reason and pain for wanting to be in war would of rationalized his decision to wanna stay and fight the German SS soldiers. It would of given the viewer a more emotional attachment to the characters per say. Also seeing the Concentration Camp victims laying on the ground could of be used to show the rookie why they're fighting and what they're fighting for. Since he was off the desk before he got there he didn't probably know or hear of the Concentration camps, alot of people didn't. Back then we didn't have google lol it was done by clicking a button to send morse code to have the receiver of the clicks to have to translate it. Crazy how much has changed lol
I can see why they cut it. Wardaddy's dialogue was perfect but Norman started to act a little cocky and it took away from his innocence which I liked. I liked that wardaddy was hard on him only because he wants to make him understand war and hate it, but to be brave and not scared. You can see the way he stared at him that he felt for him and sees his innocence slip through the cracks like sand. All the guys cared about him, they were just so broken and wish they can be the kid Norman is again. They actually don't want the kid to see what they've seen, it's all an act. They are emotionally bleeding out and seeing a fresh face kid angers them.
“My brothers name was Norman”explains why Top treated Norman better than the other 4 without Norman having earned it. He probably saw it as a way to atone for how his brother died. The others were men he had to lead, Norman is a reflection of the innocence of his brother and Top’s life outside of the war. Such a great insight that is pretty crucial to the story. The character work in this film is like no other, makes me cry pretty much every time I watch it.
So many good reasons to leave this out. Excellent editing. It makes his whole "mmm... that's better than good" line towards the end more substantive. Like opening a window into something we never knew about him. The whole "you're the only one that knows" is just corny and unrealistic. Plus, the whole backstory makes him feel like a cheesy antihero.
Whatever editor or person above them who was pulling the strings on this movie deserves an absolute F grade for the wasted potential. I hope that I can someday find a director's cut or even a fan cut with these never should have been deleted scenes added back in.
Adding to what people said about this being the reason Don wanted to defend the crossroad. I think he knew the war was about to be over, Nazi-Germany getting pushed back hard and resorting to using children and women to fight back allied forces. And he didnt want to go home, because he didnt have anything to go home to. He knew if he wanted to die it had to be there, to at least die a hero’s death fighting for his country…
US tank doctrine of the time specified that tanks stayed a minimum of 75 yards apart. You wouldn't last long, bunched like this. Guess it was easier to film this way.
Yep, and why not have the 75 gun units flank that tiger and Fury with the 76 go hull down and provide cover fire and smoke. And where were the infantry?
I watched the movie, and while it was well-made and I’m glad I watched it, I’m sorry this scene - even a shortened scene - wasn’t in the movie. All by itself it adds a depth that the movie IMO lacked. I’ve only just discovered the deleted scenes; now I’m going to watch them all, and rewatch Fury with them in mind. Thanks for the chance to do that.
I'm glad they shot so many scenes that didn't make the cut, and I understand why they were left out. So much material, if this all were made into a novel I'd buy it without hesitation. That's what you get from a novel the won't fit in a movie. And this scene would haunt me. As it should.
I kind of like how in this deleted scene, the light effects makes Wardaddy more bright, while Norma looks very pale, almost dead in comparason, and since Norman resembles a bit to Wardaddy's brother, it almost seems like he is having a conversation with his dead brother about his mistakes...
Powerful scenes. Agree the Wardaddy dialogue changes the view of that character; matter of opinion whether it's better or not. Scene of the Shermans passing the concentration camp corpses should have been left in. Very well done.
I watched this movie in the cinema when it realeased. I was 10 years old and i went with my now dead father, so it will always have a special place in my heart. To me it not only represents the journey of a squad of men through the last months of a brutal war, but also a token of the insterests i shared with my father, and for that it's a beloved memory. I'm glad I'm seeing these scenes.
Can we please get a version of Fury with the numerous deleted scenes added back in? Every deleted scene from Fury I've watched has been so moving and incredible.
This scene shows two types of heroes. One type fights for change and fix the things of past and made something good in their Lifes. And other fights, because they are righteous.
this is an extremely strange scene. first a random, out-of-character exposition dump and then the sudden twist that norman has...mystical powers? a spiritual energy which gives him visions and compels people to confess things to him? maybe i'm wrong but it sure seems like the writers just casually tried to weave some shitty sci-fi subplot into a WWII film just to justify the war-hardened sergeant randomly baring his soul to his new recruit. there were so many better ways to give background on pitt's character if they felt it was needed. norman also takes a weirdly assertive tone toward his superior here and starts acting all world-weary and wise out of nowhere, which, again.. feels very strange. just my opinion but i'm glad this was cut.
I come here, on thisvideo, from time to time. Don't ask me why, I just do. Everytime, I swear, this is just another one more, that I watch Wardaddy telling his story to Norman, I automatically get my eyes blurred and I drop a tear. I am no emotional guy. But this movie has marked me for life. May be the soundtrack during this scene and the way he's talking. I did finally understand what war really is when watchi this movie. Now two years have passed since I kept watching this scene on another channel, and it still gets me everytime. I wanted to share.
Fury is my all time favorite war movie. I have watched it 3 x's now and it just gets better. It is an amazing movie and both Pitt and Lohman are phenominal and I just do not understand why neither of these great actors were not nominated for any award. Tha Academy Awards are a joke. But, this scene should have been in the movie. When Pitt tells Lohman that his brother's name is Norman, it is pretty significant. It is clear that Pitt's character likes Norman,. but we really can't put our finger on it. He doesn't like him b/c he has the same name as his brother, but it is part of the reason and apparently he also reminds him of his brother. Should of kept this one in. Maybe tho, the movie is better with us guessing all the reasons that Pitt's character likes Lohman's. This is better than Saving Private Ryan. Two different types of movies, but I wil take Fury over Ryan.
I'm glad they kept this out of the movie. The ending where Don reveals his knowledge of scripture to Bible is so powerful and I feel like this would have somehow taken away from it.
I am not a film critic. But for me this is one of the best scenes in the whole movie. It adds a whole new depth to what already is an insightful film. You get a better understanding of the two main characters and what led them to where we engage with them.. The bodies of the dead from the concentration camp, in their stripped suits adds a whole new dimension. One facet that can never be conveyed in any movie is the absence of the smell of death, although “Fury” comes mighty close. Lest we forget 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺
God damn this scene hits. Scenes like this should never have been cut out. This explains so much about Don and why he was so adamant about continuing the fight, even against a battalion of 300 German soldiers. Homie was just trying to off himself for his past mistakes.
Every deleted scene I've watched for this movie made it better. I don't know who got a hold of this for the final cut, this explains so much about the movie.
kregmaffews ikr...the deleted scenes were much more emotional.they just gave a cold unmemorable movie
kregmaffews
Agree 100%
kregmaffews if some of this deleted seen was in the movie It would probably be much more better
kregmaffews this wasn’t as I remember
kreg bear because the lighting is off for the cuts, the acting is amateur while paired with the almost "ghost writer" out of character dialogue, the interaction itself doesn't feel organic but rather forced into your face to squeeze emotion out of the viewer in an attempt to feel more dramatic when the lead dies, and a conversation between them like this doesn't fit into the movies tone what so ever.

Don Collier HATED the SS. He was first generation American and he blamed the SS and nazis for what they did to his ancestral homeland!
This actually makes a person understand why he was so eager the hold the crossroad. He had nothing to live for, he killed his fiancee and his brother. Enough to lose your will to live. Why would anybody sane delete this scene?
The two just couldnt nail the scene. If you take away the story and focus on acting it was very inorganic compared to the rest of the movie.
@@brentbarfuss7900 perhaps the script was shitty? I didn't believe Brad was sad
I think it’s fitting, he’s not really sad at this point in the war. He’s just tired.
i think this form of respite was also dragged out much longer than the rest of the scenes, it just didn’t flow well with the pacing and overall structure
You're assuming that the folks in Hollywood who make movies are sane? 🤣🤣

This was a great scene for WarDaddy, terrible scene for Norman
That was my thinking. It explains why they deleted it at least, but I wish they kept something in about his backstory. It explains his motives quite a bit more.
Most scenes were terrible for Norman. He was not a very convincing actor for this role.
@@NoName-fx9zi tbh, after I saw these deleted scenes I was impressed by the editing that made me think he did a good job. (Not bad by any means but no Brad Pitt as Wardaddy)
I get why they cut the 2nd half of the scene. Just doesn't fit Norman's character.
"Your a strange one norman my brothers name was norman" that line ties it all together and the reason why he didnt want norman in his crew and doesnt want him to die at the end
@@kylelaughinghouse1893 could be just he doesn't want a young boy with a lot of life in front of him to die as well as an inexperienced soldier
@@arkane3168 That's what we learned in the final cut at least. With this deleted scene, however, there's more enrichment.
Probably filmed it with the idea of having "death" be a soldier or something like that. Glad they cut that, but sad to see Don's character's backstory be cut with it
The backstory about the drunk driving accident and Norman being the same name as Sergeant Collier's brother makes sense... they could have done without Norman's out-of-place dialogue and still revealed that.
Cool backstory for wardaddy, but the kid having the shining was pushing it too far.
lol yeah that was some seriously dumb shit. I bet it was that part that got the scene cut. "HEY SARGE BTW IM PSYCHICH" XD
the shining LOL
Lot of us have.Most don’t use it.
Yea dude
@@dansmith6990 lol it was pretty funny shoutout to op
Why, oh, why they deleted THIS scene?! It changes EVERYTHING! Wardaddy is not some superhero who got his burned back in a fight against a Tiger or a Paner, but because of some stupid accident which, actually, was his fault. He is just a guy from America, who was sent to the war by a judge's order. Which makes him even a bigger hero. Whoever decided to delete this dialog is a complete moron!
Yurishch I completely agree with him, sum ppl want their lives ended with sum dignity, even with all their faults, even if they had a chance to end it. . . . Sum ppl are terrified and even called " coward or pussy way out" but it's there way out and if they want it. Who's to say other wise?????
Well if you have adeath wish you are not much of a hero. Willing to stay and fight till the end if you have something to live for thats what makes a hero. Keeping this scene would make no snese for final last stand.
Yurishch The scene was deleted. Therefore there is NO explanation for how Wardaddy got his back burned in the movie. Maybe he was a hero.
I’m not a fan of the Norman dialogue but I agree with you on Wardaddy’s they should of left it in. The Concentration camp thing I feel could fit in the movie well somewhere but I’m not sure if it’s here.
Jiří Dušek a soldier willing to die makes him a hero.. its stupid if u go to war and have desire of survival wtf bcs then u wont give ur 100 percent
Brad Pitt is such a damn good actor. His range of abilities from serious to funny to sad is AMAZING.
This should have never been deleted. It adds to the character development.
except for the psychic part, that was stupid. That's why this got deleted.
it's a spoiler... it tells too much when you must learn about it later... it's much better this way
@@dansmith6990 if they kept that out this scene would have been perfect! but yea I agree the psychic part had me saying what the fuck… haha
It had every reason to be deleted. It makes absolutely no sense with the narrative the movie is trying to sell you.
Likely cut for pacing. They created a bit too much space in this scene. While it's interesting for character development, both Sgt. Collier and Norman get plenty of that while advancing the story, making this a prime scene to cut. In my opinion, anyway. Take that for what it's worth.
“Are they criminals?”
“No, just people, regular people”
They had purple triangles. Jehovah's Witnesses...
The editor really fucked this movie up. If they'd left this scene and the scene with Grady losing it before the final battle, and the film would have had a point. Brad Pitt in the final cut is a John Wayne hero. These scenes show he's dead inside, allowing him to convince his men to follow him to certain death.
The editor does not decide what is cut out and what stays in the movie... this happens because the producers and the director have different opinions.
And the public in general, who usually only have the patients to sit down for one hour and a half to watch a movie.
Yeah they need to go ahead and release a director's cut. That movie would have actually meant something...
UNITED POLICE STATES OF AMERICA screw people's *patience* Saving Private Ryan was nearly 4 hours long
I hate to bring back a six year old post but he's neither a hero nor dead inside. He's a hurting, broken man who hates himself and does both right and wrong things for right and wrong reasons
Man. This scene is fantastically well acted by Pitt, the mannerisms and him choking holding back his emotions is beautifully done. But while appreciating how well this scene is done, I can understand why they left it out of the movie. I think the bond the crew eventually reached was more impactful due to the lack of words spoken to each other. It made more sense for the time, tough up and shut up. So it made those moments like the breakfast scene with the two german women far more impactful, when you see the crew is obviously a shell of their former selves.
Bzzt, wrong.
@@danwilliams1920 I don't think an opinion can be wrong, your free to think it fits in the film. I just don't, It doesn't add much if anything. In fact (IMO) it actually takes away from the film.
It forces a story to build upon character traits that were fine as is. You don't NEED to know why Pitts character doesn't want to come back from the war, and this story is a forced way of giving you that explanation. And in all honesty it's just too on the nose, it feels like something that was written specifically to make his final choice make more sense, but all it ends up doing is taking away from the characters and making it feel more cheap.
@@EboyNxtDoor I agree & it’s a little out of the genre & too convenient. The scene gives drama and fantasy almost if you understand what I mean, while the movie is supposed to be realistic. Also I think it absolutely changes the message of the story. Before you get the theme of duty and bravery but with the cut scene you start to think it was guilt and desperation for redemption driving him to stay and fight.
my favorite quote was Punisher throwing a grenade outta the side hatch and "Fuck them motherfuckers!"
His character is 10xs better after watching this especially after he sacrificed himself at the end WHY would they delete this
Because it completely contradicts Norman's character and makes him a mutant who can tell the future and compel others to reveal personal details. Stupid scene.
Jeff II no they should've kept the earlier part. The later part good
Jeff II You can easily leave that Norman part out. The Rose story looks edited and ready to go but appears to be left out at the last minute to cut on runtime.
Because the continuity of this scene is possibly the worst I've ever witnessed, the background keeps changing from forest to field and back each time they cut from Norman to Don
@@ericbarone7957 they are driving down the side of a field there's bushes and trees on dons side as there should be and fields on normans
I love how the tank's engine is so quiet, smoother than my car :D
Under all that metal it should be quiet lol
@@7.62x51mm Nah tank engines irl blow your ears out.
@@7.62x51mm The Easy Eight, like all the M4A3 versions, was powered by a 32-valve, four-camshaft, twin-spark, 1100 cubic inch all-aluminum flatplane V8 putting out 500 horsepower. You better believe that thing roars.
Let's get this straight. Don was from southern Oklahoma and had a girlfriend and a brother who were named Rose and Norman. The three were at a dance one night and Don got drunk and fought a native American descent. After police showed up, they fled and Don wrecked the car that they were in, killing both Rose and Norman. He was then arrested for manslaughter. The judge sent him into the army as punishment instead of prison believing that we would die in the war. Don met Bible, Coonass, Gordo, and Red at tank school and would later become friends and leader of their Sherman M4. At some point in Kasserine Pass, Don pooped his pants after there tank was first knocked out, according to Coonass. The crew was then reassigned to a newer M4A3E8 which was better at tank combat. They named it, 'Fury'. After landing at Normandy, they witnessed the aftermath of D-Day. Before advancing further into France, the army bombed and fired artillery on the Germans. When they moved, they came across open fields of dying horses from the artillery. They shot the horses dead in response. Gordo said that the horses sounded like children screaming.
In 1945, after being a sole surviving tank of a battle, Fury's radio turret battery was broken and Red was killed in action which broke moral of the crew. Even when Norman was introduced as a new gunner.
To sum it up, this is why his crew is battle hardened and he rides them. He hates the Nazis because they are killers who fail to learn the mistake he made. He shows some level of guilt and is very disgusted with himself. But he put the evil inside him to good use.
the cops were called because he got in a fight with a big indian guy after getting drunk
He knew he would die. He also knew his whole crew would stay with him no matter what. What a selfish leader.
No one knows they are gonna die, he didn't know they were gonna die, watch the film he tells them to go and head for a treeline to be safe. But his crew step up to show that they won't leave him to die alone. That't not a selfish leader but a dedicated crew
If you abandon your brother in arms before a fight, you'd be better off dead in my book
He knew it was one tank vs a whole SS division. He knew they weren't going to make it out alive and he knew his crew couldn't abandon him. He put the lives of his men at stake because he wanted to go down fighting himself. That's selfish.
"How'd you get all burnt up?"
"You don't need to tell me this"
Make up your fuckin mind Norm
Norman wanted to know, but he didn’t realize he was gonna hear a story about Wardaddy accidentally murdering his little brother and the woman he loved.
...
Its called a joke people
Said he had a gift ,he knew things before they happened . Why didn't he tell Pitt when he started talking I already know cause I knew you were gonna say it . And why didn't he tell them "I really think we should give that crossroads a miss ? In other words Norm like all Norman's is full of shit
He was just respecting and basically saying if it’s too much for Wardaddy to tell the tragedy. He don’t have to tell it anymore if it’s too much.
They should've kept this scene, does a lot to develop Brad Pitt's character
No body at this point (Normandy to early 1945) would've had the same crew since 1942. The scarring may've been from a pre war incident, but the grim statistics and training SOP would've scattered these veterans to other units by then, maybe in 2nd armor, but not in the same tank, FFS
Brad Pitt wasn't the main character to develop. Norman was.
Dude wasn’t afraid to die because he WANTED to die. These scenes are blowing my god damn mind.
2:29 A heart breaking moment seeing Wardaddy trying to hold his emotions inside. It is guilt that drives him in the war, not patriotism or bravery his crew would have thought.
Bullshit
Shows Brads incredible acting as well. Brad Pitts always been good at “holding back tears and letting the audience do it for you”
Bro everytime I've seen the deleted scenes it makes the movie better. When norman asks Gordo how it feels to kill it adds to the story. When boyd rants about other soldiers dying in front him to top it adds to the story. Now this. Bro i'm mad every deleted scene wouldve added to it
Reminds me of Saving Private Ryan and the dialogue scenes between the soldiers. When Uppam became very friendly with a German, then grows the balls to finally kill him at the end.
@@LordDathka bro that's true. This movie by itself is just amazing
They should have kept the Rose scene in the movie. It would have made the scene where War Daddy says "This is my home," way more impactful. Whoever decided to cut this the Rose scene really screwed the movie over.
I disagree. This scene was shit and sees Norman, not only be the most improbable coincidence(same name and attitude as WarDaddy's brother), and display an arrogance that he shows nowhere else in the movie, but as a fortune-telling mutant that has the latent ability to compel strangers to tell their darkest secrets and personal stories. This was one of the most jarring deleted scenes and I'm so glad it wasn't in the movie. It doesn't explain any of the movie except for a single scene, in which we see Don's back. This scene and the scene at the end where WarDaddy and Norman are the last ones alive can't possibly exist in the same movie and it be good. Awful scene cut by smart editors.
I think nearly every part of this scene, bar Norman's out of character stance in regards his clairvoyance, or whatever it is, could have been kept. Maybe don't keep the fact that they're both called Norman also. The rest sets the stage for the ending pretty good in my opinion.
I think this scene was one that was recorded in two separate places because the actors were not on the same set. At 00.50 you don't see the two in the same frame. Also, the sun and shadows are on the opposite sides if each actor's faces. This scene also explains many things in the movie that were left out of the original. At least they included the outtakes with the movie. The acting in this scene was awesome especially of the "kid".
However, the lighting sequences on the faces were completely off. Anybody who studied photography 101 can tell the sunlight on the faces is out of sequence and on the wrong sides of the faces of each actor. I think the scene is excellent, but maybe the director was afraid the lighting was so obvious that he had to exclude the cut from the film. Of course, they could have "re-shot" the scene, but for whatever reason, they kept the film on the editor's cutting floor.
Exellent movie. Whitch ever way u look at it
Jeff II but let me guess a tank crew taking on the ss was believable?
The problems with the movie are much
Worse
I like the movie though
Heartbreaking. Ive watched this movie many times. To me, had it been left in, it would have been the most moving scene of the movie. It shows, perhaps better than any war movie I have ever seen, how so many brave young men had become resigned to their inevitable fate. Yet, knowing this, still carried out their duty as soldiers. Often times...for reasons they could barely understand. Bravery... no doubt. But I believe that often time, a brave act is not anticipated. This scene showed us what it was like to display bravery in the face of future, inevitable death . I feel this scene went far beyond just simple bravery. Yet despicably, these brave men and women are the ones who still fight and die in our Nation's Wars only to be thrown into its trash heap.
The Rose part is a tragedy that it got cut but I understand the reason for the second half with Norman. It doesn't fit his character at all and it almost jumps the shark with the entire movie. They should have just left Brad Pitt's part in though.
Agreed. Couldn't have said it any better.
If you've seen "a river runs through it", the back story seems to be a calling to that movie. The timeline of when he was younger, perfectly matches too
Maybe also exclude the fact that Norman just happens to have the same name as Wardaddy's brother.
My great grandfather fought in Germany during WW2. They were in a village when they were then attacked by some Germans. They even had tanks. At the end of the battle my grandfather wasn't to be seen. They then found a scrap of his helmet with his initials on it. They then wrote home explaining how he was apparently hit my a tank...he had a week left of service.
You’re lucky he didn’t pull out
I was the tank gunner that killed him
why would they delete this? i mean it tells why the man was fearless in the first place...

I agree with @JeffII but with a little less ..disdain? :) It's actually got some great acting by Pitt when he describes the wreck....but the passage where Norman claims to be a clairvoyant is lame. I guarantee they cut it more to remove Norman's lines than Collier's backstory.
SafenKD I wrote several paragraphs, but since you can't formulate the beginning or the end of a sentence, I can understand how daunting a task reading multiple paragraphs is for you. Your sentence in unintelligible, but if your point is, "Well it's the plot of the movie," I agree. However, this scene is *_not_* part of the movie. It was cut. So, thanks for making my point for me. ;)

@@woodjamin LMAO you came back 2 months later with a slightly different username to say that? Take your own advice. It's just some comments. Let it go.
This is the second deleted scene that essentially makes the movie make more sense. As to why he does what he does at the end. Between the last one I watched where he says "home? What would I do at home?" and now this story about killing his love. It explains why he wanted to die in his tank at the end. I originally thought it was just jingoistic American propaganda about how tough our soldiers were, but there was a real, emotional point to it.
I don't know why they deleted many scenes. So sad.
Some just didn't fit. These characters brake some things with this.
Films have to have a run time. And the Norman scene was just stupid
Yeah, in a movie like this with a director like Tarantino he'll have to many great scenes to be able to fit into the movie.
Now with a movie like the last Jedi however, I can think of a large number of scenes that should've been deleted.
I kind of get this one, Norman's psychic powers aside as good a backstory as this is I kind of prefer him as a normal guy not someone that in a way actually wants to be there and to die.
@@Warcodered01 Yeah, and earlier in the movie, he was a typewriter, and thinks being turned into an assistant driver of a tank was a mistake.
the pause after he mentions what happened to rose is so well done by brad pitt, you can tell the charcter is playing out exactly the scene in his head because of his PTSD.
Man, what an important scene. If they cut it due to time constraints they could of cut it at 3:15 and we'd all understand and feel why he chose to do what he did. Which is to die in his "home" because he has nowhere else to go!
Not only is it not important, but it goes contrary to Norman's character and gives him superpowers.

That’s the story.
We already know why he did because of duty, honor, bravery and all that
Keep all of this apart from Normans comments, it makes him appear too meta or hardened than he should've been. Other than that, this would've strengthened the movie
Fuck man, this explains the ending of the movie!
Every deleted scene I see gives this movie more context.
They should of left the part in where he talks about his haunting mistake that led to him joining the Army. It develops and explains SSG Collier’s character pretty good. Now you know why he feels dead on the inside with no reason to live or have a fear of death. Most normal Soldiers attempt to survive even if their dedicated to duty.

@@SMFFL100 except all the parts that dont line up, not posting spoilers but if you look at the plot it aint
It's was always dumbfounding to me . While in service how we've always treated a new member to a squad/fire team. They'd have to die or nearly die to get respected.
They had to earn thier right to be respected..after the first battle usually.
There are 2 reasons why they hate new recruits. 1. They think the new guys can get them killed in the field and so on of many mistakes. 2. They dont wanna be so close to them because they could possibly think that they wont Last very long.
I loved this scene. It really helps to solidify the big brother-little brother relationship between the two.
I can understand cutting the second bit, turning Norman into some spiritual phrophet is a bit dumb, but they should’ve kept don’s story and him saying his brother’s name was Norman, because it explains why he didn’t want Norman to be in his tank, because if he died he’d feel like it was his fault and like he’d killed his brother again
I know they wanted to make the movie more direct and within a reasonable time frame, but wow! These deleted scenes give it more depth and character context. I wish I could find a version of the film with all these scenes included.
They should re-edit this movie. Directors cut or so. I'd buy it again. Fantastic film. Thanks for sharing man. T.

They should have kept this scene. The nugget of gold that is historically accurate especially back in that time depending on age and the crime you committed, was being given the option to either go to jail or go to war. This line about being given the option of “go to war or go to jail” are sung in the Marching cadences used in Recruit Training Commands in our branches of armed services.
2:52 is bone chilling..when you know a man is broken !
This deleted scene basically explains the suicidal tendencies of the protagonist, and pretty much sums up the ending. Well done, cutting floor.
I loved this scene, apart from the ...call??? bit??? "I see things, people tell me things, you're going to die very soon". That just took away the whole realistic effect of the film, made it seem like a fantasy xD or something.
I'm not a Superstitious person, however, the whole Caul myth seems to have some truth to it. And plus those are just regular people. They might believe things, just like you and I.
Mr. McGibblet 2304 ahhh, ok yeah...idk...I just felt it was a bit of an off point in the film :/ it didn't really fit in with the rest...
while it is a little bit weird keep in mind this is in the fourties so people did kinda believe in these things.
It could also be a feeling that you can't explain and I believe in it because the night my grandpa left I told him not to go because I had a weird feeling and then he ends up dead in a car crash so something like that is quite possible even in war
It's a caul, my dad had one at birth but I don't think he got told the future.
They removed the feelings of every man and boy who went to war, shouldn’t ever have been deleted! No matter the tone the scene it gives a feeling of why some went to war because they had nothing left at home! Editing in this was awful that explained what and why every veteran carried with them, and had to live with it in surviving this horrendous war of good v evil in every part. They thought the demons would die there but they survived and came home for us all to never forget what they did for us all, the greatest generation without doubt!
Should have stayed in. Powerful scene, maybe more powerful than any scene that made the final cut
I understand why they took this out because Norman was out of character but the backstory of wardaddy would have been a good addition
More on Norman being “born in the caul”: sometimes a baby is born with some of the amniotic sac clinging to its head; Cajun folk tradition is that such babies have “the sight”...meaning dreams, visions, ‘knowing things’. Tell kids stuff like that about themselves, true or false, it’s gonna change how they look at things...and people *do* in fact tell such kids things they don’t tell others.
Like Norman said, it’d happened before. It’s WHY he said “you don’t have to tell me this”: a car accident would have answered the question, but Norman was told much more than that. Saying that told WD that Norman understood how deep that came from.
That’s what makes the scene. Cut it there
Ah I appreciate that lil tid bit of info helped fill some holes for me damn what a great scene literally every cut scene I've seen makes everything alot better
So... Norman might be Cajun or Cajun adjacent.
"The Shining" bit was unnecessary, glad they got rid of it
The piano music in these scenes is perfect.
Movie works a lot better without the monologue. Seeing the burn is enough. Implying the family bond works better and without the dialogue the pacing of the relationship works a lot better. Telling Don he will die… nah, good cuts.
In the army u gotta have that savage attitude
Great scene between two very fine actors - this is what you call skill that can only be attained through years of hard work and not just talent alone.
Это последняя удаленная сцена из данного фильма (This is the last deleted scene from this movie).
What
fuck Germany
Angelica Chavez you mean nazism?
Open your mind
It’s Russian
This (like all the other deleted scenes) is a good scene, it's well written and the acting is amazing. I believe the reason it was cut is because of continuity and authenticity. Norman being the bow gunner would not have been out of his fighting position while Fury was moving
I'm so glad they deleted this. This dialogue could've easily ruined the movie for me, it forcibly makes one vulnerable and the other a saint. Maybe he could've subtly mentioned Rose but rest of the background is unnecessary, people turn cold in war you don't need any other reason.
Also the last dead bodies bit was pretty chilling, that should've been in the movie.
A director's cut would've been nice. This completely shifts the character. It's better. Why would they HALF show Top's humanity, fear, and regret throughout the film? This shows WHY FURY is his home!!! He has nothing left on Earth. He watched everything he loved crumble before his eyes by his own hands. He is the way he is because he's already dead inside. He has nothing left to lose. It explains why a rough man like him wants to help Norman survive, and even explains the scene with the girls. The second half of this, I understand. Everthing but Top saying his brother's name "was" Norman. That kind of sheds a bit of light on his attitude toward Norm the entire campaign, which otherwise is hard to place.
This is actually one of the deleted scenes I understand why they cut it. Norman left his character a bit here. Was given too much to say.
that’s not to say he’s suppose to be some voiceless wimp, but it’s just out of his already established character to start talking like he’s been on the front for years, and has all this wisdom. It just felt out of place. Brad Pitts character’s story did feel like it was sad to leave that out, but also I think they left it out cuz the writing was too rough. It wasn’t as well put as other dialogue in this film, and was too revealing of his character which is some shrouded mystery.
I like WW2 movie writing to be left exactly that. Mysterious. It worked wonders in Saving Private Ryan, and in fact was deeply rooted in some pivotal scenes, like the whole plot of the regiments pool on where the captain was from and who he is. Which they later revealed only to give the perspective on how war has diminished his past to seem so irrelevant.
Normans a bit strange in these cutscenes not gonna lie
Cutscene ?
I can't believe they didn't add this in the original cut that went to theater's. This was a very emotional development of one of the main characters and they just cut it out like who cares. Really sad because I believe showing Brad Pitt character reason and pain for wanting to be in war would of rationalized his decision to wanna stay and fight the German SS soldiers. It would of given the viewer a more emotional attachment to the characters per say. Also seeing the Concentration Camp victims laying on the ground could of be used to show the rookie why they're fighting and what they're fighting for. Since he was off the desk before he got there he didn't probably know or hear of the Concentration camps, alot of people didn't. Back then we didn't have google lol it was done by clicking a button to send morse code to have the receiver of the clicks to have to translate it. Crazy how much has changed lol
That is so sad when Norman says “ you’ll get your wish we’ll all be in the ground soon” he actually smiles
I can see why they cut it. Wardaddy's dialogue was perfect but Norman started to act a little cocky and it took away from his innocence which I liked. I liked that wardaddy was hard on him only because he wants to make him understand war and hate it, but to be brave and not scared. You can see the way he stared at him that he felt for him and sees his innocence slip through the cracks like sand. All the guys cared about him, they were just so broken and wish they can be the kid Norman is again. They actually don't want the kid to see what they've seen, it's all an act. They are emotionally bleeding out and seeing a fresh face kid angers them.
Wardaddy monologue was great but that was totally out of Normans character.
Kinda love how good their hearing is. Don't need to have their headphones on and talking like as if they're on the balcony enjoying a beer
“My brothers name was Norman”explains why Top treated Norman better than the other 4 without Norman having earned it. He probably saw it as a way to atone for how his brother died. The others were men he had to lead, Norman is a reflection of the innocence of his brother and Top’s life outside of the war. Such a great insight that is pretty crucial to the story. The character work in this film is like no other, makes me cry pretty much every time I watch it.
Every deleted scene has hugely changed any character development in the movie as it was presented.
So many good reasons to leave this out. Excellent editing. It makes his whole "mmm... that's better than good" line towards the end more substantive. Like opening a window into something we never knew about him.
The whole "you're the only one that knows" is just corny and unrealistic. Plus, the whole backstory makes him feel like a cheesy antihero.
The part about people confessing things to him makes sense, the part about seeing the future was kinda weird though…
The deleted scenes are like the best parts of this movie. Of all the ones ive seen, its all the character development and backstory.
Whatever editor or person above them who was pulling the strings on this movie deserves an absolute F grade for the wasted potential. I hope that I can someday find a director's cut or even a fan cut with these never should have been deleted scenes added back in.
Adding to what people said about this being the reason Don wanted to defend the crossroad. I think he knew the war was about to be over, Nazi-Germany getting pushed back hard and resorting to using children and women to fight back allied forces. And he didnt want to go home, because he didnt have anything to go home to. He knew if he wanted to die it had to be there, to at least die a hero’s death fighting for his country…
US tank doctrine of the time specified that tanks stayed a minimum of 75 yards apart. You wouldn't last long, bunched like this. Guess it was easier to film this way.
Yep, and why not have the 75 gun units flank that tiger and Fury with the 76 go hull down and provide cover fire and smoke. And where were the infantry?
They didn't last that long at 75 yds.
I watched the movie, and while it was well-made and I’m glad I watched it, I’m sorry this scene - even a shortened scene - wasn’t in the movie. All by itself it adds a depth that the movie IMO lacked.
I’ve only just discovered the deleted scenes; now I’m going to watch them all, and rewatch Fury with them in mind.
Thanks for the chance to do that.
Well if Norman's so psychic , why doesn't he know why the camp victims are so thin?!
Typhus
@@lrc9304 Who- Norman or the victims?
@@dhss333 "victims"... duh
@@lrc9304 Read Your original comment, which implies his inability to know is due to typhus. DUH ...Language syntax!
I'm glad they cut these scenes, but I'm even more glad that we can still see them outside the movie.
The guilt we carry. When we're still living but yet are already dead.
I'm glad they shot so many scenes that didn't make the cut, and I understand why they were left out. So much material, if this all were made into a novel I'd buy it without hesitation. That's what you get from a novel the won't fit in a movie. And this scene would haunt me. As it should.
Ahh now I see why he was always showing more tough love on Norman..damn Top..🇺🇸
I kind of like how in this deleted scene, the light effects makes Wardaddy more bright, while Norma looks very pale, almost dead in comparason, and since Norman resembles a bit to Wardaddy's brother, it almost seems like he is having a conversation with his dead brother about his mistakes...
The deleted scenes really improve the movie. Hope they release a Blu-ray extended cut.
This is such a good movie. Brilliant performance by everyone.
The incredible scene should have never been cut.
This scene and the one where Wardaddy and Grady talk about Grady’s trauma are such golden scenes and they’re both deleted. Like what the hell.
Powerful scenes. Agree the Wardaddy dialogue changes the view of that character; matter of opinion whether it's better or not. Scene of the Shermans passing the concentration camp corpses should have been left in. Very well done.
I watched this movie in the cinema when it realeased. I was 10 years old and i went with my now dead father, so it will always have a special place in my heart. To me it not only represents the journey of a squad of men through the last months of a brutal war, but also a token of the insterests i shared with my father, and for that it's a beloved memory. I'm glad I'm seeing these scenes.
It seems the Sherman tank has a better ride than my ford f 250
Abel Zalazar well, that is totally true. The shermans where loved by american soldiers just because of the reliability and comfort.
This would have been one of the best scenes of the movie. So well acted, score is brilliant.
Can we please get a version of Fury with the numerous deleted scenes added back in? Every deleted scene from Fury I've watched has been so moving and incredible.
“ it doesn’t mean anything but what it means”
This is a bit old, but sad to see the most impactful scene taken out..
This scene shows two types of heroes. One type fights for change and fix the things of past and made something good in their Lifes. And other fights, because they are righteous.
this is an extremely strange scene. first a random, out-of-character exposition dump and then the sudden twist that norman has...mystical powers? a spiritual energy which gives him visions and compels people to confess things to him? maybe i'm wrong but it sure seems like the writers just casually tried to weave some shitty sci-fi subplot into a WWII film just to justify the war-hardened sergeant randomly baring his soul to his new recruit. there were so many better ways to give background on pitt's character if they felt it was needed. norman also takes a weirdly assertive tone toward his superior here and starts acting all world-weary and wise out of nowhere, which, again.. feels very strange. just my opinion but i'm glad this was cut.
I come here, on thisvideo, from time to time. Don't ask me why, I just do. Everytime, I swear, this is just another one more, that I watch Wardaddy telling his story to Norman, I automatically get my eyes blurred and I drop a tear. I am no emotional guy. But this movie has marked me for life. May be the soundtrack during this scene and the way he's talking. I did finally understand what war really is when watchi this movie. Now two years have passed since I kept watching this scene on another channel, and it still gets me everytime. I wanted to share.
Fury is my all time favorite war movie. I have watched it 3 x's now and it just gets better. It is an amazing movie and both Pitt and Lohman are phenominal and I just do not understand why neither of these great actors were not nominated for any award. Tha Academy Awards are a joke. But, this scene should have been in the movie. When Pitt tells Lohman that his brother's name is Norman, it is pretty significant. It is clear that Pitt's character likes Norman,. but we really can't put our finger on it. He doesn't like him b/c he has the same name as his brother, but it is part of the reason and apparently he also reminds him of his brother. Should of kept this one in. Maybe tho, the movie is better with us guessing all the reasons that Pitt's character likes Lohman's. This is better than Saving Private Ryan. Two different types of movies, but I wil take Fury over Ryan.
I'm glad they kept this out of the movie. The ending where Don reveals his knowledge of scripture to Bible is so powerful and I feel like this would have somehow taken away from it.
I am not a film critic. But for me this is one of the best scenes in the whole movie. It adds a whole new depth to what already is an insightful film. You get a better understanding of the two main characters and what led them to where we engage with them.. The bodies of the dead from the concentration camp, in their stripped suits adds a whole new dimension. One facet that can never be conveyed in any movie is the absence of the smell of death, although “Fury” comes mighty close. Lest we forget 🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺
I really wish they would release a "Director's cut" of this movie. The deleted scenes add so much for this history
Who ever cut these scenes out should have their arms and legs cut out cause it's some good scenes.
God damn this scene hits. Scenes like this should never have been cut out. This explains so much about Don and why he was so adamant about continuing the fight, even against a battalion of 300 German soldiers. Homie was just trying to off himself for his past mistakes.
