Theatrical, Extended, Unrated, or Director's Cut? Which version to watch?

[Vignir]

"Do you want to watch the Theatrical or Unrated/Extended/Director's Cut?" is a question most of us have encountered when playing a Blu-ray or a DVD.

I always find it hard to choose because I want to know what edition the director wants me to watch and enjoy. So, simply out of frustration I began to compile information about various editions by listening to commentaries, worked through interviews, and by asking the director what's his preferred version. And now I want to share my discoveries with other cinephiles so I've launched a website named This or That Edition -> http://thisorthatedition.com

Directors like Judd Apatow, Paul Feig, Joe Carnahan, Greg Mottola, Joe Johnston, Francis Lawrence, Brett Ratner, Josh Boone, Paul Haggis, Etan Cohen, Nicholas Stroller and Richard Kelly have confirmed with This or That Edition which editions they prefer of their movies. The database currently has 45 registered films and many to come.

I hope that many of you can use the database for future viewings and help me spread the word.
