The cruelist cut: Is the director's cut. You used to pay to see a movie in
the theatre. Sometimes, months or even years later, it would be rereleased.
And it would be the same movie. You could see it as often as you liked, and
it was always the same. Then along came tv and you could see movies there,
usually cut for time and sometimes reformatted. But videos solved that
problem. You could get exactly the movie you got in the theatre. And then
came DVDs and director's cuts and deleted scenes. Okay, I could live with
that when a classic film would be brought out with these extras that
everyone wanted. But now films are made with scenes missing (Lord of the
Rings is a prime example) and the only way to see them is to buy the DVD.
And want to bet that 10 years from now additional footage or a new cut won't
be released. I'm tired of constantly changing films and of studios digging
their fingers deeper and deeper into my wallet.

Yep, and this is my wallet. Look at it not open.
