i prefer the theater cut over director's

probably my favorite movie for all time... the Theater cut.

I understand the director's cut, and respect it, and liked seeing the extra scenes and sets, but it doesn't flow as edge of seat as the theater cut does TO ME.

Saw it in local theater, felt way too long (I'd seen it many times before and know what to expect), and just wasn't as roller coaster as theater cut. I don't care one bit about the additional main plot about the governement actions... in fact, to me, it makes it worse and less interesting. but I get it.

audio in my theater, althought, XD and great was too soft until the climax when it seemed to get lounder. much of it could benefit from louder the whole time as there is some great action through out that is less impactful with exciting music but at a low volume.
oh well.
