The ending of "I Am Legend" is definitely one of those "why wasn't this the theatrical version". I have the thought that the producers or even test audiences wanted the "the heroes type of ending with self sacrifice" instead of the thought provoking "am I (or at least humanity) is the true monster"? This ending opened up my mind, knowing that not all endings are happy or heroic.
My only thought against the alternate ending is that there really wasn’t any supporting context to the Darkseekers having compassion for each other to the point that they’d go on a rescue mission, and allow the capture to live in the end.
@@ItzBwo There kind of is, I (personally) had to watch it a couple of times to get the motivation for the group to go after the female. Once such instance was when Will Smith's character captured the female and the male came out and risked himself to sunlight exposure to try and save his mate.
The ironic thing is the alternate ending is the Canon ending since I Am legend 2 literally follows that ending because they're currently working on I Am legend 2 so basically the deleted ending is the Canon ending think about that for a minute😂
True, but "First Blood" is set much, much closer to reality so a convoluted "miracle operation" or maybe "the gun was full of blanks that knocked him out" reason that probably would've felt contrived and cheap. You more likely can get away with that in a sci-fi or fantasy story than in story set in our reality.😊
@@lexkanyima2195 If you watch the scene you’ll understand why. It was a scene where they were modifying the T800 and you can see a ‘reflection’ in a ‘mirror’. It was actually a pane of clear glass with Schwarzenegger on one side and a dummy on the other. Likewise Linda played Sarah on one side and Leslie played Sarah on the other.
I feel like they shouldn’t have deleted any of the extra scenes of Boromir from the extended version of The Fellowship of the Ring in the final film for similar reasons.
In a deleted Hitch scene he meets his ex. She doesn't remember him he hasn't let her go. I think he realizes its better to be loved back for who you are.
A Nightmare On Elm Street(1984) In the basement of 1428 Elm Street, Marge explains to Nancy that she and her 3 friends had older siblings that were murdered by Freddy Krueger.
wasn't it also the ending glenn close wanted them to use because it made audiences see her character the same way she did, as a sympathetic victim of a man's misdeeds? like he's the one who decided to cheat in the first place, but somehow she's the villain.
You really need all those deleted scenes from T2. When they switched his chip from read only so that he could adapt and start making little jokes for the rest of the movie?? That is a great part of the story and it makes the hug at the end even more heartbreaking!
Mostly a decent list, but I don't understand how the Star Wars scene makes this list at all. By your own commentary it was unnecessary and added nothing. It would not have changed the tone of the movie at all. You could have picked some of the deleted scenes from Apocalypse Now (later added into the Redux version) which really changed the tenor of the movie and the characters, particularly CPT Willard.
I dunno...when I read a Star Wars photo-novel-type thing back in the day, it included that scene, with pictures taken from its filming. The scene was in the novel as well, and it made it more significant when he was reunited with Biggs at the battle of the Death Star, and Biggs is killed. I was disappointed it wasn't restored in the revamped version later on.
There are a number of scenes in the extended cut that make the ID4 stronger. The extended version of Connie and Whitmore discussing the newspaper. The extended explanation of David scanning the satellite feed. The extended phone book scene. When Oaken shows David the inside of the alien ship. And then there are the Casse family which I feel don't improve it. They drag on and make both Russell and Miguel less sympathetic.
A deleted scene from a movie that made me think differently about a character 8n a movie was one of the Harry Potter movies where Harry's cousin tells Harry that he doesn't think Harry is a waste of space. Bruh, that is huge character development for someone like him.
The deleted alternate ending to "Jeepers Creepers " is a better end than theatrical cut .And makes that movie better over all ,since it was creeper .Which why I guess why they changed the ending to it ,since that too would a deleted scene .
The ending to "I Am Legend" that was cut is actually how it ends in the book. The entire premise was that man was the monster, and the side stories told via comic strips reinforced this idea that the creatures thought themselves as human. By making it just a "monsters go boom" ending, they stripped the movie of any uniqueness. It just became a generic zombie movie with no real plot beyond "Is alone, saves people, dies for cure".
@@gevorg1989they were supposed to be the next evolution of humans. Will Smith's character represents the past and he was preventing humanity from evolving into the future. It is one of the best novels I have ever read but the movie messed up what made it great.

**SPOILERS** if you've not ready the Lord of the Rings books and intend to! As I expect others have already said, in the books Saruman and Wormtongue escape the tower and head to the Shire and take over. Thus after destroying the One Ring and saving the known world from Sauron the hobbits travel back home only to have to fight yet another war. If I remember correctly, Merry and Pippin lead the charge and become heroes of the Shire because after drinking the Entwine they have grown considerably bigger and are the largest and strongest hobbits ever, or something. It's been a while but I believe maybe the latter 3rd of the last book is devoted to this section which was totally cut from the film I can understand leaving the whole Shire War out of the films, in fact I expected it to be. Destroying the ring and then closing everything up is a much better 'film ending' to the story where the the books tell us that no matter how big your victory there's always other battles to fight. Perhaps while filming The Two Towers they weren't sure if they were going to include the Shire War or not so kept Saruman fate open? By the time of the release of the extended cut of Two Towers the 3rd film, Return of the King was finished and due for release in cinemas and they knew that the Shire War was being left out so gave a definitive ending?
My opinions: Keep= Deleted/Alternate Scene should have been used, Original= Was Deleted/Changed for the better/ aka theatrical release preferred Back to the future - keep LotR - keep Silence of the Lambs - Original Ferris Bueller - Original Thor - Neutral Amazing Spiderman 2 - Original Terminator 2 - Probably keep Get Out - Original LotR - Original Hostel - Neutral, probably original, too convoluted and prone to backfiring Star Wars 4 - Original, but allowing some of it to be lore is fine Clerks - Original Deep Blue Sea - Neutral, maybe keep World War Z - Neutral I am Legend - Original, I could go for the Alternate if it was presented differently (They killed a large portion of the human population, don't victim blame) Fatal Attraction - Neutral Little Shop of Horrors - Neutral Rambo - Original
here's one, 1408. the horror movie about a journalist who rents a haunted hotel room despite the manager suggesting otherwise due to every previous guest mysteriously dying. at the end when he decides to arson and burn the room down there are 2 endings. first time watching at the drive-in they showed the ending where he lives but a year or so later got the DVD and he burned with the building. I remember saying to my sister "wait, that's not right"
I'd add the deleted tag at the end of X-Men: Origins where Deadpool's decapitated head opens his eyes. He no longer has Cyclops' power. In my mind, he's now the Deadpool from the comics and no longer "Weapon 11".
The alternative scene from Major League in which it turns out the owner was not moving the team to Miami. Rather she had no money so she invented a Moneyball type of system to find flawed but good players and her persona was an attempt to get the team to rally against her.
considering the Terminator scenes were completed including the VFX and the only reason the scenes were cut was because the studio didn't think audiences would sit through a 3 hour movie those scenes should absolutely have been kept in.
I understand that many needed to know how succession works for monarchies. It should have been a no-brainer that he would take the throne as King or Regent of Asgard.
There’s a funny or die skit of cap coming out of his coma which is hilarious and is a more accurate depiction of someone from that time period waking up 70 years later
Removing the Biggs Darklighter scene from Episode IV was a mistake. It provides a reason why this mustachioed pilot knows Luke when he arrives at Yavin IV. It also provides insight on Luke, as he is shown looking at the battle overhead (where Vader’s Star Destroyer captures the Tantive IV, and none of his friends believe him, as it would reflect on Yoda’s words about him always focusing on things in the distance, instead of concentrating in the moment.
World War Z entirely ignored the book, so it's a moot point that they changed the ending. I hope someone takes the book and turns it into an anthology series based on each chapter. I would 1,000% watch that. one of the best books of any genre.
As an actual _series_ that would be good. However, anthology _films_ almost never do. Fans of the book should have expected the movie to diverge widely from it.
Seeing the alternate ending of Rambo, no way would it have had the impact the real ending had. Lucas didn't have to have a long convo between Luke and Biggs, but it would have made more sense to have something compared to not seeing Biggs at all and Luke suddenly acting like it was a big deal to see him.
What would have been worse with Hannibal would have been if they had followed the original novel storyline, in which Hannibal corrupts Clarisse into becoming a serial killer like him and his lover.
Is….Is the music playing in the background of the deleted Spider Man scene….the same music that plays in The Return of the King when Frodo goes to the Undying Lands?….
i'm gonna go with the director's cut of "the butterfly effect," where evan realizes the only way to stop the chain of tragedies inflicted on everyone in his life is to prevent himself from being born in the first place. it was a courageous and bitterly realistic conclusion that hit way harder than the soppy "i yelled at her once but i could still hook up with her later whee" happy ending.
WT actual F??? I had no idea there was a deleted Avengers scene like that?? I always wondered why there was a random spot later in the movie with Mark Greens daughter in it as a waitress. Now it all makes since, she met him earlier and didn't know he was a superhero. Damn my mind is now blown
"If I'm supposed to be this great, military leader, then maybe you should start listening to me"... Sounds more like a tantrum than a leader being born 😂😂😂😂
Fun fact: Barry Nelson was the actor who played Ullman. What was one of his other claims to fame you might ask? Why he was the first actor to play James Bond in live action .
I Am Legend's ending is made more confusing by the fact that there's now a sequel based on the version they didn't show where Will Smith's character survived. They have to now do the tedious job of continuously explaining this to anyone who asks.
Well, I didn’t like The little shop horrors alter end much, but it could be reused as The little plant villains dream or as Middle of Movie final battle before the plants monsters defeat
Little Shop's end shows the difference between a movie and a live musical and why downer endings work better on a stage. Because unlike a movie the characters come out for their bows and applause on a stage.
They did a disservice to I AM LEGEND by replacing the "am I the monster" ending with explosions instead. The title of the movie would have had more relevance. And LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS would have become one of my most favorite horror movies of all time had they let Audrey take over the entire planet in the end. Sometimes bowing to the test audiences can degrade the quality of a movie :(
Rambo 1st blood book ending had Rambo and the colonel hunting each other. With the colonel ambushing rambo, by out thinking him, using a tactic that was purposely chosen because only an idiot amateur would do that, but it worked against Rambo, but the colonel nearly failed because Rambo's reflexes were nearly fast enough to kill the colonel
Sometimes after seeing a Director's or Extended version of a film, I simply cannot go back to watching the original theatrical release. I could list many titles here but one that I am a little surprised is not here is "Donnie Darko." The deleted scenes (that are added back in the Director's Cut) are only minutes longer but they are mostly the pages of the book The Philosophy of Time Travel, that Roberta Sparrow wrote. When I freeze framed each page and read what was in the book it completely changed my view of who Donnie Darko really is and what he does in the film. For me, it was a total shift in how I view him on all subsequent viewings. I'll never go back to the theatrical version. Maybe I should review this one on my channel so I can talk more about it.
@@willcorker763 Absolutely! LOTR is just not the same without the extended versions, and the "Alien³" director cut makes that movie one of my favorites in the entire saga. Just watched "Dances With Wolves" director's cut for the 100th time and that one too, I can't go back to the theatrical release.
There's a deleted ending for the 80s baseball comedy Major League where its revealed the team's bitchy owner is more than she seems. She played the antagonist to fire up the team and that all the perk cuts that were justified as "punishments" were actually due to the team's almost non existent operating budget. If they hadn't had a good season, they would probably have gone bankrupt. But this tested poorly, with the audience preferring her as a straight villain.
I was so annoyed when I saw "I Am Legend" in the cinema. It was fine(-ish) right up until that stupid explosive ending that detonated a stinkbomb under the whole point of the story. Foolishly, I had thought that the 3rd filmed version using the original novel's title signalled that it was going to be at least somewhat faithful to the novel. Was much happier when I saw the "alternative" cut on Blu-ray. It retains the essence of the ending, if not the detail. The first filmed version - "The Last Man on Earth" from the 1960s - is still the only version that really gets close to the real ending, with Neville dying and the last words of the film going to one of the "vampires" who turns to her child and says "It's alright, you're safe now."
Major League: The owner Rachel Phelps was actually behind the team all a long. She simply lied about the presumed move so as to motivate the team to win. Instead, the cutbacks were due to legitimate financial stress, while she worked hard to get a team of underdogs who showed promise (rather than a bunch of losers that would tank the team, thus making a move to Miami easier). .
I always thought Ferris Bueller was a snotty little punk (and I was in high school when it came out), so being a thief wouldn’t have surprised me. I always found it weird that his father have obviously never met Sloan, Ferris never introduced his supposed girlfriend? So he was just using her, too?
I’m planning on doing a legacy sequel to Little Shop of Horrors in graphic novel form and borrowing some ideas from the original musical, the Roger Corman film that inspired the film and even this entire deleted sequence of Audrey II’s rampage on New York.
The I Am Legend one shouldn't have been removed. The new ending made the groundwork that had been laid completely useless and dropped the significance and meaning
No.. no no.. Aragorn's final journey isn't to defeat Sauron, Sauron is an evil that existed long before him. His final journey was to become the man that the world of men needed, someone who could inspire the people of the West, who could lead them not just in battle but help rebuild the once proud kingdom. He finally came to understand what his destiny was instead of trying to run from it he embraced it in the end. Rambo was a tragic victim, like so many veterans especially from that war, killing him would've well, it would've hurt i think a little too much. Yes he did things that required him to go to jail, sure no disagreement but he was pushed far too much and for no reason other than he was different.
Actually for back to the future i always felt it was weird, they include the sheriff scene I felt he was important in away and he’s never is shown again this explains why
I don't know how to feel about Peter's dad 😅 Film didn't show a way he could've survived, but if he somehow did - was he helping Peter BTS, or was he just watching and doing nothing?
Further spoiler alert if you wish to read The Hannibal series by Thomas Harris . . . . Clarice and Hannibal run away together. The last part of the book ends in Argentina, where Lecters former guard Barney is with his new wife, while the hobeymoon. They are at the opera when Barney turns and makes eye contact with a familiar face. Barney nods his head, and returns to the opera. Clarice and Hannibal enjoy the opera, and never speak to Barney.
I disagree with the Star Wars assessment. I think keeping the scene with Biggs made sense if they would have done it. Most people watching Star Wars we're kind of confused as how Luke and Biggs knew each other at the end of the film where they raid the death Star. He mentions him by name briefly but it's a blink and you'll miss it moment in the first part of the film having one of Luke's friends die who you've met at the beginning changes the stakes at the end of Star Wars. Just my opinion
I think a LOT of these should have stayed in. I think the Terminator 2 scene _might_ actually still be canon because they reference the concept in another part of the franchise. I've not seen the film, just read summaries, but I think the alternate ending and the chosen ending to "Get Out" should have been simultaneously and randomly shipped to theaters so that the audience didn't know which ending they were getting. (Sort of like they did with "Clue" in the '80s) While the ending to "First Blood" certainly would have stopped the idea of any sequels, much less a franchise, I think it would have been better for the theme of the movie as a drama. (Also, it's what happened in the original book.) "I am Legend" should also have stuck with the original novel's ending. The "Star Wars" scene with Biggs should have been left in at least in a reduced form because Luke's reaction when he dies at the end sort of comes out of no where emotionally for the audience. They should have better established his friendship with Luke earlier in the film.
@@KnickKnack07 nope. It's art. There are no wrong or right answers. There's only the story the the creators want to tell and the story the consumer of art enjoys. The more people that like the vision the artist had, the more right they are. If every man woman and child on Earth but one love the story, then it's still a failure to that one person. If every man, woman and child on Earth hate the story except one, that it's still a success to that one. Every decision in art is completely and utterly subjective to the consumer. There is no right answer. Those who create the stories are merely sometimes lucky that they find enough people who like the stories.
Pretty sure for number 19 why they didn't put the shot in the back in back to the Future 3 is because it would have made the probably the movie rated r 🤷♀️, ALSO there's a whole lot of deleted scenes in all of the Harry Potter movies that they should have kept in anyway 😓 oh well 🤷♀️ we can still see them actually it's just better if they're IN THE MOVIE
I believe the deleted scenes where Sarah Connor sees John's father, whilst in the mental hospital, it completely changes the tone of the character to a much more relatable and emotionally traumatized human who's still suffering of loss and impending doom.

I'd add the deleted tag at the end of X-Men: Origins where Deadpool's decapitated head opens his eyes. He no longer has Cyclops' power. In my mind, he's now the Deadpool from the comics and no longer "Weapon 11".
The alternative scene from Major League in which it turns out the owner was not moving the team to Miami. Rather she had no money so she invented a Moneyball type of system to find flawed but good players and her persona was an attempt to get the team to rally against her.
considering the Terminator scenes were completed including the VFX and the only reason the scenes were cut was because the studio didn't think audiences would sit through a 3 hour movie those scenes should absolutely have been kept in.
I understand that many needed to know how succession works for monarchies. It should have been a no-brainer that he would take the throne as King or Regent of Asgard.
There’s a funny or die skit of cap coming out of his coma which is hilarious and is a more accurate depiction of someone from that time period waking up 70 years later
Removing the Biggs Darklighter scene from Episode IV was a mistake. It provides a reason why this mustachioed pilot knows Luke when he arrives at Yavin IV.
It also provides insight on Luke, as he is shown looking at the battle overhead (where Vader’s Star Destroyer captures the Tantive IV, and none of his friends believe him, as it would reflect on Yoda’s words about him always focusing on things in the distance, instead of concentrating in the moment.
World War Z entirely ignored the book, so it's a moot point that they changed the ending. I hope someone takes the book and turns it into an anthology series based on each chapter. I would 1,000% watch that. one of the best books of any genre.
As an actual _series_ that would be good. However, anthology _films_ almost never do. Fans of the book should have expected the movie to diverge widely from it.
Why the heck does the thumbnail terminator look like he’s a stoner?
Seeing the alternate ending of Rambo, no way would it have had the impact the real ending had.
Lucas didn't have to have a long convo between Luke and Biggs, but it would have made more sense to have something compared to not seeing Biggs at all and Luke suddenly acting like it was a big deal to see him.
What would have been worse with Hannibal would have been if they had followed the original novel storyline, in which Hannibal corrupts Clarisse into becoming a serial killer like him and his lover.
Is….Is the music playing in the background of the deleted Spider Man scene….the same music that plays in The Return of the King when Frodo goes to the Undying Lands?….
i'm gonna go with the director's cut of "the butterfly effect," where evan realizes the only way to stop the chain of tragedies inflicted on everyone in his life is to prevent himself from being born in the first place. it was a courageous and bitterly realistic conclusion that hit way harder than the soppy "i yelled at her once but i could still hook up with her later whee" happy ending.
It's possible the hotel manager is actually Randall Flagg. Given that he manipulates multiple universes.🤔
The Man in Black does get around, tbf.
WT actual F??? I had no idea there was a deleted Avengers scene like that?? I always wondered why there was a random spot later in the movie with Mark Greens daughter in it as a waitress. Now it all makes since, she met him earlier and didn't know he was a superhero. Damn my mind is now blown
🗡 I am free! - "Salt" (2010)
"If I'm supposed to be this great, military leader, then maybe you should start listening to me"...
Sounds more like a tantrum than a leader being born 😂😂😂😂
@@iconpoet agreed! Hate that scene. Hate all the extended scenes truthfully
Fun fact: Barry Nelson was the actor who played Ullman. What was one of his other claims to fame you might ask? Why he was the first actor to play James Bond in live action .
I Am Legend's ending is made more confusing by the fact that there's now a sequel based on the version they didn't show where Will Smith's character survived. They have to now do the tedious job of continuously explaining this to anyone who asks.
How about The Jitterbug from The Wizard of Oz?
Boy, if you think the alternate ending to Hannibal was weird, wait until you learn how the original novel ended...
Well, I didn’t like The little shop horrors alter end much, but it could be reused as The little plant villains dream or as Middle of Movie final battle before the plants monsters defeat
I don't like it either.
Little Shop's end shows the difference between a movie and a live musical and why downer endings work better on a stage. Because unlike a movie the characters come out for their bows and applause on a stage.
They did a disservice to I AM LEGEND by replacing the "am I the monster" ending with explosions instead. The title of the movie would have had more relevance.
And LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS would have become one of my most favorite horror movies of all time had they let Audrey take over the entire planet in the end. Sometimes bowing to the test audiences can degrade the quality of a movie :(
You right, the deleted scenes from movies should never be left out, the deleted scenes would have change the whole movie and especially number one
Saruman dies in Shire after war of the ring so that deleted scene is dumb
Rambo 1st blood book ending had Rambo and the colonel hunting each other. With the colonel ambushing rambo, by out thinking him, using a tactic that was purposely chosen because only an idiot amateur would do that, but it worked against Rambo, but the colonel nearly failed because Rambo's reflexes were nearly fast enough to kill the colonel
I for one am glad they gave Little Shop of Horrors a happy ending, instead of a sad and scary ending.
@MrN-02169 Me too.
Thank god that they cut out the make-out scene between Luke Skywalker and Han Solo in Star Wars!
We never even got the deleted scene of Peter meeting Mary-Jane in Amazing Spider-Man 2.
Sometimes after seeing a Director's or Extended version of a film, I simply cannot go back to watching the original theatrical release. I could list many titles here but one that I am a little surprised is not here is "Donnie Darko." The deleted scenes (that are added back in the Director's Cut) are only minutes longer but they are mostly the pages of the book The Philosophy of Time Travel, that Roberta Sparrow wrote. When I freeze framed each page and read what was in the book it completely changed my view of who Donnie Darko really is and what he does in the film. For me, it was a total shift in how I view him on all subsequent viewings. I'll never go back to the theatrical version. Maybe I should review this one on my channel so I can talk more about it.
That's me with Aliens and the LOTR trilogy
@@willcorker763 Absolutely! LOTR is just not the same without the extended versions, and the "Alien³" director cut makes that movie one of my favorites in the entire saga. Just watched "Dances With Wolves" director's cut for the 100th time and that one too, I can't go back to the theatrical release.
There's a deleted ending for the 80s baseball comedy Major League where its revealed the team's bitchy owner is more than she seems. She played the antagonist to fire up the team and that all the perk cuts that were justified as "punishments" were actually due to the team's almost non existent operating budget. If they hadn't had a good season, they would probably have gone bankrupt. But this tested poorly, with the audience preferring her as a straight villain.
The scene with Saruman was included in the extended cut version.
Both endings for Hannibal are different to the book. If you think both these endings are controversial, read the book
While it made sense to not do Aragorn vs Sauron, it wouldve been great to see that scene fully completed
I was so annoyed when I saw "I Am Legend" in the cinema. It was fine(-ish) right up until that stupid explosive ending that detonated a stinkbomb under the whole point of the story. Foolishly, I had thought that the 3rd filmed version using the original novel's title signalled that it was going to be at least somewhat faithful to the novel. Was much happier when I saw the "alternative" cut on Blu-ray. It retains the essence of the ending, if not the detail.
The first filmed version - "The Last Man on Earth" from the 1960s - is still the only version that really gets close to the real ending, with Neville dying and the last words of the film going to one of the "vampires" who turns to her child and says "It's alright, you're safe now."
some of these aren't deleted. Loki was given the throne by Frigga in the movie and the Capt. Scene was in the one I saw.
Major League: The owner Rachel Phelps was actually behind the team all a long. She simply lied about the presumed move so as to motivate the team to win. Instead, the cutbacks were due to legitimate financial stress, while she worked hard to get a team of underdogs who showed promise (rather than a bunch of losers that would tank the team, thus making a move to Miami easier). .
I'm deleting my above post as I didn't see you posted this also. I fully agree this should have been on the list.
The reason they changed it is the test audiences didn't like that plot twist, and so they kept her as a villain instead.
I always thought Ferris Bueller was a snotty little punk (and I was in high school when it came out), so being a thief wouldn’t have surprised me. I always found it weird that his father have obviously never met Sloan, Ferris never introduced his supposed girlfriend? So he was just using her, too?
I’m planning on doing a legacy sequel to Little Shop of Horrors in graphic novel form and borrowing some ideas from the original musical, the Roger Corman film that inspired the film and even this entire deleted sequence of Audrey II’s rampage on New York.
Event horizon and Wes cravens cursed deserve their restored director’s cuts
The I Am Legend one shouldn't have been removed. The new ending made the groundwork that had been laid completely useless and dropped the significance and meaning
MsMojo sponsored Marcus theatre when I was watching DM4 lol
No.. no no.. Aragorn's final journey isn't to defeat Sauron, Sauron is an evil that existed long before him. His final journey was to become the man that the world of men needed, someone who could inspire the people of the West, who could lead them not just in battle but help rebuild the once proud kingdom. He finally came to understand what his destiny was instead of trying to run from it he embraced it in the end.
Rambo was a tragic victim, like so many veterans especially from that war, killing him would've well, it would've hurt i think a little too much.
Yes he did things that required him to go to jail, sure no disagreement but he was pushed far too much and for no reason other than he was different.
Actually for back to the future i always felt it was weird, they include the sheriff scene I felt he was important in away and he’s never is shown again this explains why
How about the top 10 movie scenes that shouldn't have been removed
Titanic was left out......
Is watchmojo even trying
5:45. THAT'S NOT HOW THE ODINFORCE WORKS!!
that one for return of the king, thats funny, i actually use that idea
I don't know how to feel about Peter's dad 😅 Film didn't show a way he could've survived, but if he somehow did - was he helping Peter BTS, or was he just watching and doing nothing?
Further spoiler alert if you wish to read The Hannibal series by Thomas Harris

Clarice and Hannibal run away together. The last part of the book ends in Argentina, where Lecters former guard Barney is with his new wife, while the hobeymoon. They are at the opera when Barney turns and makes eye contact with a familiar face. Barney nods his head, and returns to the opera. Clarice and Hannibal enjoy the opera, and never speak to Barney.
Oh and Clarice totally partakes in eating Paul Krendlers brain
I disagree with the Star Wars assessment. I think keeping the scene with Biggs made sense if they would have done it. Most people watching Star Wars we're kind of confused as how Luke and Biggs knew each other at the end of the film where they raid the death Star. He mentions him by name briefly but it's a blink and you'll miss it moment in the first part of the film having one of Luke's friends die who you've met at the beginning changes the stakes at the end of Star Wars. Just my opinion
I think a LOT of these should have stayed in.
I think the Terminator 2 scene _might_ actually still be canon because they reference the concept in another part of the franchise.
I've not seen the film, just read summaries, but I think the alternate ending and the chosen ending to "Get Out" should have been simultaneously and randomly shipped to theaters so that the audience didn't know which ending they were getting. (Sort of like they did with "Clue" in the '80s)
While the ending to "First Blood" certainly would have stopped the idea of any sequels, much less a franchise, I think it would have been better for the theme of the movie as a drama. (Also, it's what happened in the original book.)
"I am Legend" should also have stuck with the original novel's ending.
The "Star Wars" scene with Biggs should have been left in at least in a reduced form because Luke's reaction when he dies at the end sort of comes out of no where emotionally for the audience. They should have better established his friendship with Luke earlier in the film.
And again, that is why you are not a director or movie editor. They are far better at their jobs than you are and know what works and what doesn't.
@@KnickKnack07 nope. It's art. There are no wrong or right answers. There's only the story the the creators want to tell and the story the consumer of art enjoys.
The more people that like the vision the artist had, the more right they are.
If every man woman and child on Earth but one love the story, then it's still a failure to that one person. If every man, woman and child on Earth hate the story except one, that it's still a success to that one.
Every decision in art is completely and utterly subjective to the consumer.
There is no right answer. Those who create the stories are merely sometimes lucky that they find enough people who like the stories.
Heh, for Hannibal... you... might want to read the book ending.
Pretty sure for number 19 why they didn't put the shot in the back in back to the Future 3 is because it would have made the probably the movie rated r 🤷♀️, ALSO there's a whole lot of deleted scenes in all of the Harry Potter movies that they should have kept in anyway 😓 oh well 🤷♀️ we can still see them actually it's just better if they're IN THE MOVIE
_The Amazing Spider-Man 2_ would’ve benefitted from Peter and his father in the final cut.
had no idea about that one tf
hell no -- completely stupid
I believe the deleted scenes where Sarah Connor sees John's father, whilst in the mental hospital, it completely changes the tone of the character to a much more relatable and emotionally traumatized human who's still suffering of loss and impending doom.
"and emotionally traumatized human who's still suffering of loss and impending doom." -- EVERYONE understood that's what she was feeling
Should've added some of the deleted scenes from Alien to this list.
No Kingdom Of Heaven?!? Shows the queen kill her son cause hes showing signs of early leprosy, n lots more!
