22. Hungry Like The Wolf
Pulp Fiction (1994)
Given the choice between having more or less Harvey Keitel in your film, the correct answer is to always have more.
This snippet fills out the Wolf’s fix-it scenario, and shows off some zinging dialogue.
23. More Boogie!
Boogie Nights (1997)
The deleted scenes from Paul Thomas Anderson’s modern porn classic are much like the film itself – full of frantic, stream-of-consciousness momentum.
It makes it hard to tell one scene from another, but if there’s a film we could definitely stand to be even longer than it is already, it’s Boogie Nights.
24. Blue Hotel
Wild At Heart (1990)
This short sequence doesn’t really go anywhere, but it’s an object lesson in David Lynch’s use of anxiety and tension.
What happens: Diane Ladd and Harry Dean Stanton arrive at a hotel, where a man is vacuum cleaning.
What we feel: an unbearable weight of dread and horror. Only in Lynch-land...

Now this is what Lucas should be including in the six film Star Wars boxset they say he's been working on for the past couple of years. This does add a little more depth to the story and makes a great film that much better.

Not that T-3 was a good movie, because I pretty much like to pretend it ended after 2 (even if McG does make a good movie, i'll still gladly skip 3) but I disagree, that clip really is bad. It's a little too Paul Verhoeven, which doesn't really fit the theme of the movie. I can see why they left it off. Too bad they couldn't also leave off the bad maths and Arnold doing the talk to the hand thing. http://www.igp-scifi.com

Not that I think T3 is a good movie (because I don't) but that clip is truly awful. It screams Paul Verhoeven which doesn't really fit with the movie. The Star Wars one however is definitely badly needed, unlike, say the wobbly CGI Jabba. http://www.igp-scifi.com

You picked the wrong deleted scene from "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas." The one that truly should not have been excised is the one in which Raoul Duke drives up to a small country store run by Rance Howard. He finally discovers the American Dream he's been pursuing, and then ends up p**sing it away with his cynicism. It's the lynchpin of the entire story and I'll never figure out why it ended on the cutting room floor. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f40Ye9CfgFo

I just wanted to say; well done, this is a genuinely great little feature! Unlike some of the rather "we need to update the site, how about a feature about.. err... movie trainers?!" ones I've seen in recent months :-P

The Kill Bill deleted scene doesn't look like all the effects are complete (the three men standing after being sliced seem to be missing spurting blood; the lead guy with an Aussie accent not yet re-dubbed). The scene is not amazing either. Easy to see why it was cut. And Vol.2 was weak as p**s.

IGP - point taken, but surely being a bit more Verhoeven would've been a good thing? Cartoonist - the scene is strong, but tbh I don't even remember it from the book. Maybe scratched as it was too similar to the cafe scene? Avoidz - well, the effects are supposed to be super-shonky, so it's hard to tell. Think we can probably agree it's better than the rest of Vol. 2 though, right? Padman - cheers! Mostly :)
