Best deleted scenes...

What in your opinion, are the best deleted scenes in your favourite movies? Doesn't matter if they are the best for sheer style, for what they would have added to the movie, or whatever other reasons - personally my favourite is the Ed-209 scene in Robocop where he malfunctions during his presentation and riddles the guy with bullets!

Theatrical release - guy is shot several times and dies
Directors Cut - Guy is guy several DOZEN times amid what looks like hundreds of blood squibs

Good one is in Bad Boys 2 where they stop the funeral and search the coffin.

a thank god it was deleted nominee being the blood monster in blade, it very hard to think of them even though I love me DVD extras

Oooooh, good thread

Fellowship of the Ring

Theatrical: Legolas shoots a couple of arrows in a fluid motion in a single camara shot.

Extended: Legolas shoots LOTS (9?) of arrows in one camara shot

Will think on more later

Team America:

A deleted scene/outtake with Trey Parker doing Spotteswoode's voice. After Gary proves he can be trusted, Spotteswoode calls him gay, causing Parker and the crew to break out laughing.

Made me scream laughing.

Yeah, that's a cool one alright! In fact (barring one or two) any extra from any of the LotR series.

I got to say one of my favourite deleted scenes in a movie is from the first 'Ice Age' movie. That it's a good deleted scene from an animated feature is even more strange as they're usually crap flubs or technical fcuk ups.

But anyways it's the scene where Sid the sloth sits on the mud bath with the two female sloths and the human baby. It obvious that the two females are only interested in him cause they think he's a sensitive male. But Manny comes and takes the baby leaving sid alone with the girls who ask:

"Where's the baby?"

Sid replies, "He couldn't be here for the next part if you get my innuendo"

priceless

Ps: I'm paraphrasing, I can't remember the exact phrase that preceeds @If you get my innuendo'

It's a toss up between Denethor/Faramir/Boromir scene from The Two Towers. It completely changes the scene with Faramir and Frodo: A chance for Faramir, Captain of Gondor to show his quality.

Or

The Stairway To Heaven scene from Almost Famous. It's on the "Untitled" release. They didn't have the rights to the song so the scene is on the DVD and they prompt you when to put on your own copy. There's something very satisfying (sad I know) if you get the timing right on. Especially with the sister's boyfriend


OP, great thread. Kudos

I really like the cut scenes from Terminator. It's amazing how many of the ideas that made T2 so good actually existed at one point in the first film. I'd like to see them cut into the film sometime.

This Is Spinal Tap has almost a second film worth of cut scenes which are almost as good as the rest of the film.

My favourite cut scene. And DVD feature.

Some of the deleted scenes from Orgazmo are great.
The scene of the porn star running around trying to find somewhere to cum and being told not to do it in each particular place should have really been in the film.

I really liked the court room scene in Natural Born Killers, should never have been cut IMO.

Where Mickey (Woody Harrelson) is cross-examining the sister of one of his victims and suddenly stabs her to death with a pencil
