#release the deleted scenes you cowards

[morsesnotes]

I'm still thinking about that deleted scene of Joan touching the side of Morse's face and him putting his hand over hers.

It reminds me of the end of Coda when she gently brushes her thumb across his wound, and he instinctively holds on to her. I love that moment because it showed a loving side of Joan which was reminiscent of Monica and demonstrated she was Win's daughter as much as Thursday's. You could totally see why Morse fell for her.

I realized Joan kind of lost that side of her in the rest of the series. The closest which comes to mind is her silent kiss with her hand in Harvest.

I feel like it would've been really lovely to see that parallel of her being able to look past all the bullshit for a minute and let Morse know how much she cares for him. I think it would've gone a long way in explaining why he could never get over her.

guys I think it’s time to start bullying lionsgate into actually releasing the 2+-hour long extended cut of tbosas on dvd

[narcissusbrokenmirror]

the final cut of jatp left so many scenes behind. so many scenes I'll never see. Willie scenes I'll never see. i need a minute

[svvy2003]

I can honestly see Billy Dunne as being protective of Julia,Susana, and Maria. If they got bullied in school or something. Camila is too, obviously. They just love their daughters so much,and Billy's gonna keep proving that he's not like his dad. They're also protective towards Graham's kids,they love their nephew and niece/nephew. They're a very protective family.

have you seen the monkey man directors cut? i bought the blu ray when it was released and it contained an alternative opening/ending and deleted/extended scenes. (which def seemed the be the ones they cut to try to get it shown in India) idk if anyone has posted them online yet or anything. but i definitely wanted to hear your takes on the previously unreleased scenes

hey! my copy arrived yesterday and I just watched them. honestly not a fan of the alternate opening, it takes a lot of mystery out of the kid's identity. the closing is just the same montage edited a bit differently through the ruins of the club, I prefer the theatrical edit better.

the deleted/extended scenes were SO much more political and explicitly critical of the bjp. the vagueness of Universal/monkey paw's final cut has always frustrated me, so it's good to confirm that dev did originally intend to go even more in on hindutva fascism, islamophobia, and more voice to the hijra experiences. the death in police custody scene hurt a LOT. I also noticed there was a bit more sexual violence, which doesn't change much for me really.

sorry I just took photos of my tv as I was watching bc I got the 4k and I don't have a drive for my computer that can read it (so I can't rip it to make gifs... Sad!!) but this scene had me screeching:

god I wish they hadn't been such cowards and just let dev put his movie out without sacrificing something so powerful.

I'll watch it with directors commentary sometime soon.

It’s really interesting to me that for the most part in KOTPOTA, I think with the exception of the really oddly placed scene of Mae asking Noa if he likes Soona, I can almost rationalize Noa and Mae’s entire relationship and arc into enemies to reluctant allies to friends (eventually, though I’ll concede to a possibility of them ending as enemies again), and that’s it. Friends with a very close bond, mind you, and with experiences only the two of them can understand. Platonic with a capital p as much as I have become severely allergic to that word for various reasons. They’re both continuously challenged in their views about the other, sometimes positively, sometimes negatively, and in the end we’re left with the big fat question of the trilogy; can apes and humans live together in peace? It’s less about Noa and Mae as individuals and more what they represent to each other, and it could very well be left at that. I can see that, as much as I love the possibility of LOVE between the two being at least a partial answer to that question. They can keep it platonic all they want and I can’t point to any one scene in the movie and be like ‘wait!! this has romantic undertones/overtones and can’t be anything else!’

They even end it with Noa taking Soona to the observatory, somewhere very important to him. As unsatisfying and out of no where that relationship came from, I took it as the movie telling us point blank to NOT ship the ape with the human girl no matter how much chemistry is oozing out of the performances. Fine, sure, I’ll just ship it for fun and accept that they’re not trying for a romantic angle.

Except.

EXCEPT.

What is with that deleted scene? A tight, tense hug from behind? And, again, I’m a rational girl over here. I know that Noa wrapping his arms around Mae was so that the other two apes couldn’t smell her and detect them. He placed his hand over her head to cover the wound. When he released her and looked at his hand too, he could have looked at her blood and thought a number of things there. He could have been grossed out, he could have marveled at the idea that humans bleed the same as apes, he could even maybe feel guilt. Him protecting her like that doesn’t even have to necessarily be about him being protective of her specifically; they were both in danger, he was protecting them both.

The giant elephant in the room is that they didn’t have to block the scene out like that at, or even create it at all. The reasons why Noa wrapped her in his arms don’t matter, his thoughts on the situation afterwards don’t even matter as much as the director creating a scenario where Mae has to be held by him at all, and that’s driving me a little crazy over here. It’s like the scene was only created for us to go ‘aww’ at.

That’s not even touching on the still of them embracing or whatever funky little thing they got going on there. It’s only disheartening that they’re deleted scenes, like any romantic undertones they decided to walk back. To which I say, LAME! It might be controversial but it sure would get a lot of people talking about it! To me as well it just raises the stakes that much higher if we’re even more invested in their relationship, and people love romance, so I hope they just decide to not be cowards and milk what they got.

Ok I can’t help it - I gotta talk spoilers/leaks. Don’t worry I’ll keep it to very clearly marked posts and make it so you have to expand to see anything. Please lmk if I’m missing anything 🥰😘🫡 (and I will delete any lectures - I’m desperate for content and while I don’t support the guy who did this, I’m still gonna eat cause I’m starving XD also they caught him and jailed and fined 100k 🍻)

SPOILERS

SPOILERS

Official:

- Creator Viv summarized season 3 as “revelations” and season 4 as “family” and likes season 3 the most, alluding to this being where more Lilith is revealed

- We get a sexy pop Chaggie song

- Vaggie’s bow “suits her” per her voice actress - maybe backstory?

- Charlie will question her worldview and work on her powers

- More Vox as main antagonist

-Nifty gets a fast paced song

-Baxter finally appears - replaced by sir Pentious in final story edits, he’s basically a fishy mad scientist who wants to study redemption - there’s an official clip a few seconds long but also longer leaked where Charlie cannot stop calling him Pentious

-Erika (VA) accidentally said that Charlie would be talking to Lilith at some point

Leaked:

- Lute is losing her shit and hallucinating Adam with a super badass solo (see TikTok Gravity) - she alludes to killing Vaggie and I’m fucking terrified but the song is fire 🔥

- Lute has a gold arm prosthetic that seems fully functional; can Vaggie have an eye please? 🙏

- Lute is very openly arguing in court against Sera and Abel and there’s a hilarious exchange when she learns she’s not head exorcist + she begs Sera more after the trial too

- Abel is the leader of the exorcists even though Adam didn’t like him - he’s a pacifist and either dating or besties with St Peter

- Pentious was a coward who watched a Jack the Ripper-esque character kill women in the 1800s and didn’t report it - he redeemed himself by trying to save his friends (this whole scene is on TikTok with Sera and Pentious crying and Lute being a brat)

- Pentious wants to go back to hell with his friends and Emily tries to get him happy there and makes heavenly egg bois for him (song is on TikTok and the worst of those released - kinda welcome to heaven like in quality… least favorite so far)

- The Sailor moon esque character referred to in some interviews is the speaker of god, who resembles Stolas and his family… leaving many to speculate if they are fallen angels

- Alastor was a serial killer who promised a mysterious task for Rosie, who owns his soul until he completes it - he was mistaken for a deer and shot but became the most powerful sinner in hell in return - they have a super catchy cute 1920s duet (also on TikTok - mimzy cameo on top of his piano in his flashback too)

- Awesome banter with Lucifer and Alastor (Cheri and Angel watching and Angel tells Lucifer he should have moved in sooner)

- Vees giving hotel bad press and somehow potentially involved Charlie hitting Velvete and harping on how she didn’t “closed fist hit” her while Vaggie tries to get her to let it go and stay at the hotel + cute I love you exchange but also more steamrolling by Charlie not listening to her GF…

- there’s official art of Alastor restrained and I’ve heard things about Vox threatening to rape him but I’ve not found this myself and heard it was a fake Russian hack? Idk

- pilot from 2019 is NOT cannon, with Charlie meeting Killjoy for the first time and reaffirming that she is bisexual (lots of homophobia) + she has nifty with her!

Ok what am I missing? I didn’t find anything for husk and only those single scenes for Angel, Lucifer, and Vaggie. I’ve heard it was mostly the first two episodes but I hope these three don’t get neglected and it’s just that the first 2 eps are more Heaven/Lute/Alastor focused

Read your No*ae vent (https://www.tumblr.com/pinklikeroses/755402672374415360/little-bit-of-a-mini-vent-at-first-i-thought-noa) and I completely agree. The excessive shipping is really disheartening.

No@ and M@e are such interesting characters and have a really complex dynamic, but all ppl see is “🔥 spicy forbidden romance 🔥”. It was whatever at first, a group of fans easy to ignore, but the tags are now completely suffocated with deluded interpretations of things that aren’t there. Especially the released deleted scenes. They’re SO INTERESTING and cool to see, but you go to look for ppl talking abt them and all they care about is how close to hugs and kisses they can imagine the characters getting.

It’s even gotten to the point where they’ve started insulting the movie and Wes Ball himself. Saying the crew was “spineless” and “cowards” for not “following through” with a romance that was never in the cards. The movie was great and you can tell the cast and crew worked their butts off for it, just because they didn’t dive into interspecies yearning doesn’t mean the present narrative and themes don’t have value.

I’m sorry for the long ask, but the fanbase has been kind’ve disappointing these days.

No need to apologize! This is an insightful opinion! It has been disheartening lately…the way ppl can’t take off their shipping lenses. The fact that ppl who ship no@mae forget how the interspecies romance is completely nonexistent is kinda embarrassing.

Their real was never meant to be romantic but complex and challenge the characters and themes of the movie. It ducks the no@mae tag is everywhere even with one of the most recent deleted scenes. But I do take comfort in the fans who see the movie for what it is instead of what it isn’t. Nora’s a kind character who doesn’t want anyone to get hurt Mae’s a human with ulterior motives who can’t let go of her prejudice towards apes���.watering down to shipping does such injustice to them

Guess who finished their re-watch of Moon Knight for the first time (with a friend, no less!)

Guess who is freaking out as a hyperfixation that never left is now going into over drive? (Me. It's me)

Also guess who sobbed at the end because there is no season two and we'll never get to see Jake's story.

And then proceeded to have an argument with the making of special because they kept saying 6 hours of content and it was fucking 5 and a half because they CUT OUT THE PART BEST PART AND RUINED THE EDITING.

AT LEAST LET US SEE THE DELETED SCENES YOU COWARDS.

Release the Diab cut!

[niennawept]

Release the deleted scenes of Adar and the uruks, Amazon. You cowards!

[merv606]

Just want Cobra Kai to admit there is an S5 finale deleted scene in which right after Terry “defeats” Chozen, he leans over him and tells him that “My only regret is you won’t be alive to see me bend him over and shove my cock inside him… and him loving every minute of it.”

Or to Johnny “You won’t be around to screw up another kid… or to see me screwing Danny Boy blind.”

Release them you cowards!

I just wish they’d release ANYTHING with Daniel and Silver/ Ralph and Thomas!

I mean those Instagram photos of them practising - and the ones of Ralph on his knees on the floor ….

I would love to see the footage of them practising that and them filming it - not even from a shipping perspective - just to watch it.

But I agree - those scenes do 💯 exist and should be released

*grabby hands*

[offonaherosjourney]

Ok so apparently the RWRB movie was 3 hours long before the cuts and if we memed and shitposted and fandomed our way into a second season of Good Omens, I ABSOLUTELY BELIEVE we can do the same for that extra hour of content. No need for narrative consistency. Release that hour of deleted scenes, you cowards. Pretty please?

[fdelopera]

this this this!!! these panels...

Khonshu: “you are an insolent brat. i never should have given you life”.

Marc: “maybe so. but i’m here now. i’m home. and i’m coming for you, “dad”.

reading this ... it becomes clear what the deleted “Diab cut” scene at the end of MCU Moon Knight was probably going to be. i think Diab was recreating a version of the ending of Lemire.

Lemire created the parallel between Elias and Khonshu. in a way, Khonshu can be seen as an introject of Elias.

Diab created a similar parallel between Wendy and Ammit. and during the “white void” scene, Marc and Steven challenged Wendy’s specter by confronting her as Ammit. this all happened in a liminal space, perhaps part of their inner world.

c’mon Feige, you coward. it’s been over a year. release the deleted scenes...

Hurray for the brain damage /s

ew

but he's finally free from the brain vore

ah yes this is the stereotypical set of sentences pretty much every mother has said at least once

TIME FOR VIOLENCE

[selene-bathory]

And in "Scenes That Did Not Make It to the Final Cut"... I wonder where in the Seven Kingdoms are they 🤔 

House Of The Dragon - Episode 7: Driftmark

[willexx]

sometimes i think about how this scene exists and we didn’t get to see it and there was probably a juke mic share and luke was probably staring at julie because she just rejoined the band and he basically put her in charge after calling her boss and they are in full-fledged practice mode and they were probably singing finally free and we would have seen what they did during practice versus what they did in the final show and luke would have told julie she was perfect and julie would have complimented reggie because of the perfection of what is his voice and luke would have teased alex and asked him if willie was coming and they would have had a band circle and oh my goodness i need to sit down
