editing to say I do want to pick based on the copies you guys have, and not necessarily just to react to extra footage

It seems like Prime and presumably other streamers are pushing the director's cut, so that may be the version most people are familiar with in 2024. I'm still a strong proponent of reactors watching theatrical cuts whenever possible, though, because that's the version most people originally saw and the version that won awards (where applicable).

The TiVo version 🫣😂😈

I feel like the pacing really suffers in the unrated cut, but that's just me.

daniel j brooks

Dayum!!! Maybe theatrical might be better. Someone is already saying it throws the pacing off.

Tom B

You aren’t missing much with the theatrical; as Matt pointed out the pacing is a little different in the unrated cut.

Wouldn’t most people only have access to theatrical cut? Plus that how I saw it when it was first released.

John Neiberger

Exactly this. I would have to find some way to acquire the unrated cut. I don't think I've ever seen it. I have the theatrical cut available easily.

steven engler

Whichever is available to stream, I don't own a copy

Julian Calzada

Theatrical cut, because thats what I have access to

Paul Cox

For anyone who generally catches a lot of films through your library card with Hoopla or Kanopy, I checked and it IS on Hoopla in its theatrical version. Not on Kanopy in either version, though. Just fyi fellow library nerds! 🤓

Flash pol. Who's supposed to flash who?l

Jay Perry

I can stream the theatrical cut for free. I would have to buy the unrated cut.

bnut

Unrated is always way better with comedies. It's actually insane anyone would vote for the worse version. It's the internet in 2024, you don't need to buy anything, nor do you need to pirate either.

bnut

Unrated cut is just straight up better in every way, like with all comedies. Such a bad take about 'pacing'.

Kade (Sydney, AU)

There's some mistake... this FLASH poll is actually about TROPIC THUNDER?

MotoDork

Why would anyone stream when you can buy the blu-ray and own it forever. And you can always watch it in high definition with no buffering or lag.

MotoDork

I always see people complain about "pacing" any time an unrated cut or an extended cut is mentioned. I've never understood this argument and I never will. The pacing is always exactly as the director intended. It's up to us to just appreciate the art.

Saiman

I find it ironic we are voting on which version when Shanelle has to edit for YouTube.
