Since this question is coming up in just about every DVD thread, I will answer this to the best of my knowledge;

The American release of X-Men: The Last Stand was intended to have 10 deleted scenes, PLUS 3 alternate endings. Another 11 deleted scenes were being saved for a newer, special edition DVD to be released at a later date.

However, do to an error, some DVD's were printed with all of those deleted scenes, all 21.

There is NO RHYME OR REASON to how these DVD's are available.

ALL versions of the DVD (Regular, Collector's Edition, Trilogy) are all EXACTLY THE SAME DVD.

So there is absolutley NO WAY whatsoever to determine, before buying, if the DVD will have 10 deleted scenes or 21.

These aren't separate releases. All of these releases are the exact same thing. The Collector's Edition version is the SAME EXACT DVD released regularly. The DVD in the trilogy box is the exact same DVD that you buy regularly. There is NO DIFFERENCE WHAT SO EVER between any of these releases.

The DVD's that have 21 deleted scenes is purely random. You will not be able to go into the store and find one with 21, and one with 10, and be able to make your choice accordingly.

The best way to go about your purchase is to purchase your DVD anticipating, and expecting, to get 10 deleted scenes. Then if you come across 21 instead, then you're a lucky camper. BUT DO NOT EXPECT IT, BECAUSE THE RELEASE WAS INTENDED TO CONTAIN 10 DELETED SCENES, AND SOME COPIES WERE ACCIDENTALLY PRINTED WITH 21. THERE IS NO WAY TO DETERMINE BEFORE PURCHASE HOW MANY DELETED SCENES ARE ON THE DVD. IT IS A CRAP SHOOT!

Perhaps this can be stickied by a mod (Lightning Strikez?) so that people can see this, and be informed when they make their purchase.

My ALL CAPS talking isn't to yell because I think you're dumbasses or anything. It's to enforce certain parts, because there is a lot of confussion on the matter, and I simply want to clear it up. I work retail, so I know about this DVD release. There is no "21 deleted scene" version. If you happen to get one, it was a mistake by Fox that you were able to capitolize on.

Extra 11 scenes arent that great at all so if I didnt get them and then bought the later release containing 11 more scenes and found these.... I would be pissed. Glad they screwed up. Go Fox.
 
Yeah I got the extra onces too. They weren't all that save for one that showed Colossus punching a frozen Phat...
 
This is a bad mistake on Fox's part. I only got the 10 deleted scenes, but am ok since I've seen most of ther others anyways. Plus, I have the UK version on order. Still...bad, bad mistake. Should've just gave everyone 21 from the get go. :o
 
I would be mad if I didn't get that extra scene with Colossus.

All half second of it.:o
 
I got the one with the 21 scenes.

Just to let people know. Target has the collection edition in a tin can box.

should've gave us all the director's cut lol
 
This is total BS. (What Fox has done --- not the news provided by Nell2ThaIzzay)

This production has already stained the franchise, it can't afford anymore bad publicity.

Fox needs to recall all the DVDs, reissue it with all of the deleted scenes and give up their money-grubbing plan to double-dip later on.

Rupert Murdoch needs to step in and give some people their walking papers. :whatever:
 
Its funny, I've never followed a movie's production from start to finish so closely. Since last year this movie's production was flooded with various problems. Now we have this.with the DVD..

FOX really handled this in an un-professional manner.

The franchise was stained back in 2000, all they've done since then is compound the massive error(s).
 
cant you guys sue fox for this? Or at least, for those who got 10 scenes, demand a new version with all of them for free?
 
Okay, I'm not sure if this has anything to do with anything, but my 10-deleted scene R1 DVD is named "Stanford Bridge" in my DVD-ROM drive. That's kind of strange isn't it?

Can someone who has the 21-deleted scene R1 DVD toss it in their DVD-ROM drive and see what it says?
 
Wait...i'm confused as towards Storm. Their were 2 pics: 1 of her shooting lightning from her hands at Alcatraz, and another where she is looking up towards the sky with her hands outstretched......why aren't they on there? Because I was really looking forwards to seeing them.

I doubt it. Fox can claim that it was like a prize in a cereal box. Some got it, some didn't. But the outrage/news about the "error" should keep going and maybe Fox will officially put up other scenes online and in high quality so people don't have to beg for them to be put on youtube.

I was wondering about those too Javon. We actually saw that footage of Storm shooting lightning with one arm in Alcatraz, in the trailers. Maybe that one of her with her arms outstretched is an extended scene of her generating a wind funnel and then riding it as opposed to what we got in the movie which showed her taking off quicker.
 
I doubt THAT. Not to you Storm22...to merch.
 
so where is it?!?!!! it better be on the DVD coming out next year.
 
yup....the "super-duper" version..it's the director's cut i think...it's in the interview with Famke on the CBS.
 
I got 20+ deleted/alt scenes. I bought the R1 Trilogy at Target. I feel bad for those who only got 10. :(
 
Was this just an united states mix-up, or is it all of region 1? I'm from canada and I have ten deleted scenes.
