The Dubai party scene was not in the theater release that we saw in California. However, the more detailed convoy ambush and the filming of Tony by the terrorists for ransom in the beginning of the movie was definitely in the theater version that we saw but it is not in the DVD release (it is shown in the extra/deleted scenes). Why would they completely cut out such important scenes on the DVD? Don’t they always put the same version on the DVD that was at the theater…at least with the first release of the DVD? We were very disappointed. They DO need to release the movie with all the deleted sences intact!

I did see the Dubai scene in the theater – and when I was watching it on blueray my friend asked how tony could fly those 14hrs straight to the middleeast – It got me to thinking that it didn’t make any sense to me and that something was missing, when I watched the deleted scenes I saw that scene – and I remembered seeing it in the theater -but why would they cut out scenes for the DVD? I would think they would want to add more…….and the Dubai scene was harmless, you didn’t see the girls do anything!

Think there’s an option somewhere to watch the movie with those scenes re-included? Or are they goig to wait a year and release some über special extended edition?

The suit colour scene was in the theatre release, as I recall. Never saw the Dubai scene in the theatre.

The Dubai scene wasn’t in the released film, I don’t think. I didn’t watch the movie itself again on DVD, so I can’t speak to the suit color scene. But I did like the single-disc cover design, based on the movie poster.

I’m just annoyed because the cover design of the 2-disc set is cooler, and I’m stuck with the lamer one.

Am I hallucinating or did the scene where he was selecting the color of the suit removed?

Okay, now this is a surprise to me. I never saw the “Dubai party” scene at the theatre in Ottawa.

At all.

As for the omission of Dennis O’Neil, I’d hope that the next movie in the series will rectify it. After all, his storyline is going to make for a large chunk of its plot, based on all the speculative hoopla.

I couldn’t help but notice the theatrical version was slightly different than the DVD version of the film. One of the parts they took out was that party scene in Dubai (or most of it) and stuck it in the extras section.
