I find them pretty interesting. You can literally change a character, scene or even a whole movie with one alternate take.

It completely depends on the film and the cut.
With something like
Kingdom of Heaven for instance, the theatrical cut and the director's cut are almost two wholly different films. And don't even get me started on
Blade Runner -- wow.
OTOH, sometimes (often?) it's just adding length or other elements which don't change anything in any significant way.
So while I'm usually excited by the prospect of a new or different cut, it really in the end depends on the individual thing we're talking about.
