If anything, I'm consistent. Here's my second article in the deleted scenes line: AvPR Theatrical vs Unrated. I've detailed every new scene in the Unrated cut with screens.
Don't get your hopes up though. I thought it was pretty disappointing as the scenes don't add a whole lot to the movie. When I get the UK DVD, my next article ... [Read More]
