The Extended Edition

[Red Mask]

Wicker Man was depressing.

The only part they got right with that story.

 

[webhead731]

No it was depressing because Nic Cage died.

He didn't deserve it.

Uhhh, Webhead. You do know how the first Wicker Man film ended right? Assuming that was intended conclusion by Anthony Shaffer, they kept that part true to form.

I didn't know there was a first film up until I saw a DVD a couple weeks ago at a Circuit City.
I thought it was just a new idea recently and made into a movie. Didn't think it was a remake or something.

It wasn't Nic Cage dying that made it sad, it was just that the character didn't do anything wrong and got brutally tortured and killed. Just made me feel uneasy.

Then they go and get Harry Osborn at the end! (James Franco)

That's what they got right.

Anyway, the Ghost Rider extended cut is an improvement. Check it out.

lol It's great that they got it right, doesn't stop it from making me feel bad.

And how do you people get the DVD for Ghost Rider so early?!

The Region 3 edition came out earlier in Asia. But we don't yet have a Region 3 copy of the FF: Extended Cut.

 

[webhead731]

Oh I see.

 

[Spider-Fan]

The Ghost Rider EE is somewhat better, but not very different. A few things are different and some of the added scenes are nice, but it is almost the same movie.

I enjoyed GR, though. It is in that good but not great category. It is fun, but not impactful.

Can't remember if this has been answered:

Was the ******ed "Yee-Haw" edited out of the Extended Cut?

 

[Ghost Ridin']

I hope so but I doubt it.

No, its still there

 

[webhead731]

Dammit.

 

[WorthyStevens]

I didn't see the theatrical version, but I'd give the extended a 7.5/10. Some shoddy acting, and bad line delivery. But it was decent for what it was.

 

[webhead731]

I give the original a 7/10 and the Extended a 7.8/10 lol.

Wasn't a GREAT improvment like Daredevil's was but still, good.

 

[Armand Z Trip]

What is different, what has been added to the extended edition? Just curious. Thank you.

Besides a few awkward sound effects... it overall seemed like a much better film and the effects seem like they were worked on more since theatrical. And yet another film whose director's cut should have went to theaters.

Also, might just be my TV- but, did the final fight setting look darker to anyone else? In theaters that scene was light as hell, cartoon light which effected the setting. This time around it was much darker... as I said, may have just been my TV on a darker setting. Wondering if anyone picked up on this as well.

 

[webhead731]

Yes I picked that up. Glad I'm not the only one.

Seems a couple seens were darkened.

Hey Tempest, go to the Tech. Support forum and look at my thread...can you tell me if your DVD does that?

Pisses me off.

 

[Tempest19]

I don't see any purplish pink fire... ?

 

[webhead731]

Well it's not like it's the entire film, it comes and goes.

 

[Tempest19]

Went to the jail scene specifically and didn't see it... with an exact time that you see purple and exact area- I can check... but, saw no purple fire in that scene personally...

 

[webhead731]

Well I'm thinking it's a bug in my DVD, with my luck.

It's real easy to notice for me on the part where he makes the first spikes come out of his jacket. Pause it before the first one pops up and wait there and look on the right side of the screen to that fire area.

Also, on mine, when he's walking while the sprinklers are starting to go off, and when he grabs the guy and looks at him before saying "nice jacket".

Probably just my DVD.

Over what?

 

[webhead731]

The original?

 

[MARVELous M]

I found the extended cut dvd didnt really added much more to this movie at all. I did like the extra scene or two between young Johnny and his dad though. In my opinion, I wanted more action scenes with Ghost Rider fighting or something..
