Release the Theatrical Cut


I can't speak for anyone else, but I'm really interested in seeing the original version of the film again. Aside from my initial viewing in the theatre, I haven't had the opportunity. I spin the director's cut regularly, but I'm left with a nagging feeling that I'm missing stuff.

Granted, the trivial differences between alternate versions of Stone's films have become a bit of an obsession with me -- I own all three versions of Alexander; God bless the anonymity of IMDb -- but if the changes are as significant as some have said (I haven't found a shot-by-shot breakdown anywhere), I'd certainly be willing to pay for it again. A nice idea would've been including both versions on the blu-ray. Oh well.

You know, um...I feel kind of retarded bringing this up so late after your post, but if you own a PlayStation 3 console that's connected to the internet, you can buy it from the PlayStation store and download it to your console's hard drive. They have the original theatrical release version of "Any Given Sunday", as well as that of many other great titles. I got both the standard definition and the high definition version of the film earlier this week. And it doesn't cost an arm and a leg either, only 19.99 USD.
