The motion bothered me too, I dont know if it was the way it was shot, but the people on screen felt static/cut out, like I was watching it in 3D (even though I wasnt)
Did you think this?

I didn't notice that, but that will be due to digital filters used I'd imagine.

It makes sense. Sales are affected more in cinemas by ratings and uncut helps it sell better for the home market.

Hope the DC is released here and that improves things.

It's a download for me and I almost never download movies (maybe 1-3 a year, if that). I missed it at the cinema, want to see it but ain't paying to do so.

Why would you not pay for it if you want to see it? It's a good film. If the DVD / BD are too expensive and you don't expect it to be a keeper, then just get it from the closest rental shop.

Because that costs money too

and my expectations are very low. I'll obviously get a DVD rip and before anyone waffles about downloading movies, like I said I download 1-3 a year.
I'd rather buy films I at least "expect" to keep.

Thought you had a hard on for retro 80's action movies? thought this would be right up your street.

The Expendables Extended Cut
"...fans will also be happy to see MORE Dolph Lundgren. Furthermore, scenes with him that were already in the theatrical cut have been re-edited and almost exclusively to his advantage....Also his fight with Jet Lee, whose key points were vigorously critizised, now opens with the necessary calm before the storm. The editing is also better... the worst CGI, as well as most of the aweful special effects shots of the burning Steve Austin, have been removed...
221 changes in total
in detail:
- 73 additional/extended scenes in the Extended Cut
- 68 additional/extended scenes in the Theatrical Cut
- 39 alternative shots
- 26x alternative sequencing
- 10 new edits of existing scenes
- 3 changes of dialogue
- 2 changes of the score"

Has the Theatrical cut been edited too then?

The wording is confusing.

Not to me. Grim's got a good point.

RTFM or RTFW if you prefer.

I have no idea what Grim and Brad are talking about. Did you even read the article?
Re: The Expendables-Stallone,Li,Statham & Lundgren!
Posted: 21 Oct 2011, 11:08
by grim_tales
Er, yes
It's confusing because the article compares "Theatrical Cut" and "Extended Version" (Extended is longer) yet at the top, says:
221 Changes in Total
73 additional/extended scenes in the Extended Cut
68 additional/extended scenes in the Theatrical Cut
It makes it sound like there is another version plus this Extended Version

Why would the Theatrical Cut have another 68 scenes added or extended that weren't in the Extended Version?

Because Stallone deleted some scenes/shots he had used in the theatical cut from the extended cut (like it says in the article). Just like with Rambo where he also added footage to the extended version, but also deleted some that was in the theatrical version.

How can it not be clear Hung/Mark? Did you read what Grim/myself wrote?

. Thanks for clearing it up though.
