Anyone enjoy good (bad) movie edits that are put onto TV?
As I watched the A&E Special on Star Wars this evening (very good by the way), I was ******* around watching The Patriot on TNT. TNT's shown graphic stuff before, like Andersonville (its own film), Gettysburg, etc... I seem to recall violence in those galore.
The Patriot had HORRIBLE edits in it though. I mean big cuta-aways with the sound left in tact... Fight scenes which have the speed increased to a comical Benny Hill level to make the edit "fit".
I can only imagine Gibson's other spirit-rouser Brave Heart which made The Patriot look like a kiddie film in its levels of graphic violence.
Other films I've seen have really awesome made up words snuck into them to replace swearing, which really often makes for a good bellie laugh from me I know.
Anyone love watching horrible TV editing jobs though? This is really kinda sad, but comical nonetheless.
