Technically, it was the first cut. From it, Romero's 126 minute Director's Cut (known as the theatrical edition) was created, while Argento's cut bore little resemblense to either Romero cut in many scenes.

Anyways, point was that the long cut was actually an early rough cut, not some final assembled Director's Cut in any way. Even most of the music is temp score (including some bits also found in Monty Python & the Holy Grail).

A not DNR'ed version of Dark City. Although I am very happy with the version that's out, I want to compare detail.

There's a Big Lebowski extended cut?

The Crow City Of Angels (they slaughtered this movie cutting over 40 minutes of alternate scenes/ending/plot to make it more pg-13 ish and more like the original) The director hated the version they released.

and Nightbreed Director's Cut of course. They cut over 25 minutes of alternate scenes/ending from this as well. Clive Barker's been trying to get this released for years but good ol Fox can't find the additional footage.

He was joking, however there IS a work print version out there. It has a different muscial score.

Ouch thats a cruel joke.

From the Austin Powers discussion I would far prefer to have the international cuts of the first two Austin Powers movies.

[Alkali]

Leon (The Professional cut) which up till now seems to have escaped UK release.

Payback (The totally re-edited version with different plot; practically a different film, its called Payback: Straight Up). Again, another film which was released on DVD and Blu in the US, but not in the UK.

Superman II (Richard Donner cut) Another disc which doesnt exist in the UK.

I dont understand why there is such a slooooooooow takeup of films onto Blu here in the UK. The same problem exists with Battle of the Buldge Blu, Fifth Element, and a few others. If I could rate all UK releases for being on par with the US, I'd give it a 0/5. Theres too many to mention.

I'd like to see a proper version of Rattle and Hum with cleaned up picture, the blu-ray is shocking.

What new footage was discovered? I am a HUGE fan of Halloween and heard nothing of this!

Of already released titles:

Extended Independence Day - I really like the extra stuff
Theatrical Stargate - Don't like the extra stuff as much
Theatrical 1408
Extended Lion, Witch, Wardrobe
Extended Punisher
Theatrical Payback
Extended Terminator 2
Extended Fantastic 4 and Extended Mr. and Mrs Smith (Don't really care about the extended releases as much as I just want better releases for both)

For Unreleased titles:
Theatrical Star Wars (I will still buy whatever comes out though)
Extended LOTR
Recut Sin City
Aliens Directors Cut (It's Aliens that has a proper director's cut right? all others are not the directors preferred versions if I remember correctly)

The Magnificent Ambersons

Greed

Those are pure "fantasy" wishes, of course, since the footage that was cut from both was destroyed. On the other hand, we have most of the missing footage from Metropolis on its way to Blu-Ray courtesy Kino, so miracles can happen! Ambersons may just be the single biggest Holy Grail in movie history . . .

I would also like to see both the theatrical and extended versions of The Abyss released in one set. (It would require two seperate discs, since the movie is sufficiently altered that I do not think it would work via seamless branching.)

Someone mentioned Clive Barker's Nightbreed, and I would like to add his director's cut of Lord of Illusions to that list. I saw the disappointing theatrical version when it was first released, and the director's cut (which is a true "director's cut", not just a studio-reworked "extended edition" like most of the Ridley Scott movies like Gladiator, Black Hawk Down, and Alien) is vastly superior.

Well, in the case of both Alien and Aliens, both cuts were Director supervised and approved. However, Ridley Scott is adamant that the theatrical cut is his preferred cut, whereas Cameron stands by both cuts. The longer version was referred to as a "director's cut" on laserdisc, but every DVD version has been named "special edition cut", presumably at Cameron's request, so as not to diminish the validity of the theatrical cut.

in 2009 after warner releases a half-ass lord of the rings trilogy my most anticipated correct release will be the lord of the rings trilogy extended cuts with lossless audio.

call me pessimistic, but i'm probably right.
