I saw an edited broadcast edition of Animal House once.

.....saying it was not the same is a gross understatement. It was unrecognizable.

There are properties that were made to be shown one way...lets leave it at that and if you are a prig, then avoid it.

ps. I dont even like directors cuts of my favorite movies...the excesses of some directors are sometimes worse than the deletions.

Of course. Anyone who doesn't like gratuitous violence, sex and language is a prig? Interesting concept, but no. You could have just said:

lets leave it at that and if you are a prig you dont' want to watch violence, sex and vulgar language, then avoid it.

They permanently changed Airplane on the DVD release. In the original (and on my VHS copy) Barbara Billigsly says "N*gga don' wan' no he'p, N*gga don' get no he'p." In the DVD they changed it to "Sucka don'..."

It ticked me off big time. I feel I should have the right to sue someone for changing the content that I paid for! What if they did that to "Blazing Saddles?"
