The director's cut trap that keeps ruining bad movie nights
Honestly, I keep seeing folks in here hype up director's cuts of famously bad movies and I gotta say, stop. I popped in the extended cut of a certain 90s sci-fi flick last Friday, thinking more footage means more laughs. Nope. It was 40 minutes of dead air and deleted subplots that made zero sense. The theatrical version had that perfect, messy pacing that made it fun. The director's cut just felt like homework. Anyone else get burned by an "uncut" version that killed the vibe?
