Hi,

I was watching National Treasure and the bonus material on DVD last night.

If this has been discussed here, before, could someone help me find the thread?

The comment by the director of National Treasure was that once all the footage that was shot to make a movie was rough spliced together, the mivie was some 4+ hours long. Mich too long for a regular movie.

If the unused sections of Serenity (even if not fully featured with music and such) were put together, how long is the movie?

With DVD/Blu-ray, a four or five hour movie could be stopped while phone calls, kitchen breaks, and so forth are made would not be as much of a hassle as at a movie theater.

Would Wedon and the fan base be interested in such a product for home viewing?

Food for thought.

I found the deleted scenes on the Serenity DVD very good and would like to see them in the main movie (such as Inarra's scene concerning her romance with a pirate).

I'm with you, I'd sure like to know if that's true. If so bring it on.

There's no place I can be since I found Serenity.

I want a completely new story continuing the adventures of our crew, not just an expanded version of the one I've already seen dozens of times.

The problem is that most of the cast has moved on to other shows and films, Joss is now at Disney and Tim is at "American Horror Story". Getting everyone or even most of them back together will be difficult.

I didn't say I expected it to happen, just that it is what I want.

Even if there are extra scenes Joss cut from the movie, most won't have been color-timed, or FX applied. Even some we saw as extras on the DVD/Blu-Ray were like that.

Hi,

I had forgotten that something like this had happened before.

In 1963, The movie "The Pink Panther" was released. Great comedy with Peter Sellars. Several sequals were made.

Sellers died in 1980. In 1982, a NEW Pink Panther movie was made. With a lot of the unused clips from the from the earlier movies and stand ins, look-alikes, and new footage; Blake Edwards did a sequel AFTER the lead actor had died.

I'm not saying it should be done, just food for though.

The Rotten Tomatoes rating for The Pink Panther movies were excellent, until 1982. Terrible from then onward in five movies. I think we could draw some conclusions from that.

90% The Pink Panther January 7, 1964

I would like the same but still if there are scenes out there I would love to see them.

I would love to see an extended cut of Serenity, but IIRC Joss doesn't believe in "Director's Cuts".

Not exactly. What he said was that what we saw in theaters and on DVD was the Director's Cut.

Yes but he also said there were scenes in the movie like the exchange between Inara and Mal when they were headed to Miranda that he loved but had to cut due to time constraints. I also remember him saying he felt guilty and he owed Mariana because he cut so many of her scenes. "Was I that bad she asked him". Or that Mal and River had more of a conversation right before they went into the bank to rob it. He cut it because when Jane said lets be bad guys the scene was kind of over.

Zoe's skin tone is a little on the light side don't you think?

With the angel's halo over her head, you'd expect her to be little pale since she's no longer in the best of health, being dead like that. It's also weird having fur on her face.

Her supernatural state is given away by "Zoe" having an Angel's wing on one side and a Demon's wing on the other. I do believe that the artist is implying that "Zoe" is not all goodness and heavenly light. For what she has done in life, she will be serving half of Eternity in Hell. It is a very Medieval Christian work of art. As for the Furry part, I have no idea what a Medieval Christian would think of that, other than Halloween will soon be here.

I think those are good observations except that she will be spending half her eternity in Hell. How do you measure half of eternity?

Zoe is in a superposition. The probability of finding "Zoe" in heaven is 50%. You could measure "Zoe's" position over and over for all eternity and the probability is forever 50%. That's who she is, was, and always will be.
