EDIT:
Okay so after looking around I see the uncut stuff is kind of taboo here and I can see why. I can't delete or lock this topic myself but if moderators deem this thread no good, I can understand why it'd be locked or deleted. Sorry if I caused any trouble
Hi there.
Let me state how and why I'm here. I recently came across a rumor about the original movie that the 5 main cast were to die in the end of the movie and heaven was going to be the "Great Valley." I had to look that up and found it to be untrue (thankfully, how much of a downer would that be?
)
But then I learned there's apparently a lot of missing footage from this movie and it lead me to this page:
http://lostmedia.wikia.com/wiki/The_Land_B...ncut_Version%29 I was disappointed to find out there was no actual uncut movie though. But I was looking at the page and I notice the prerelease VHS tape.
Now I loved this movie as a kid, I watched it almost every day and to this day, I still have a majority of the movie memorized. I also got into it again in my early adult years and began rewatching it almost every day again. The image of the pre release looks shrinkingly similar to the one I own. It is, however, right now in storage so I can't do an actual comparison... I guess what I'd need to know is, is that McDonalds logo actually part of the VHS or just a sticker? Or maybe we don't know? I'm wondering if there's any way to tell for sure besides that if it is just a sticker because I know my copy doesn't have any stickers on it anymore if it ever did. I Just know I got this movie as soon as it came out cause I loved it so much. We also went to McDonalds and Pizza Hut to get the toys, and I think I might still have my Ducky puppet somewhere.
My point is, I'm fairly certain I either have this version or, if not, I have a first wave VHS version. Because I watched the movie so much as a child and a young adult, I remember the fight scene with Sharptooh pretty much perfectly. Now it's been years since I've seen the movie so to double check though I watched what I believed is a DVD rip of the fight and yeah, the scene is identical in both versions.
However, it's in all possibility that I'm mistaken about the copy I own but I did find this opportunity:

I'm fairly certain it won't have any missing footage or altered scenes, but it never hurts to double check these things ^_^
