Comment on Crocodile Dundee | New 'Encore Cut' removes footage from original film
Squizzy@lemmy.world 2 months agoGoing back and changing the record on how things were;is the main character’s job in 1984. It might not be as malicious but it is not the right course of action.

If I was re-releasing art that didn’t age well, especially if the part that aged like milk was otherwise insignificant, I would probably alter it as well. It’s not changing anything that’s already out there, it’s just a newer version.

Is it under a different name? Is the previous version equally available. Can a consumer make an informed choice about getting the same quality of either version. Are they made aware at purchase it is not the original version?
Art is reflective of its time, be fair shit if they went back and put the snapchat dog filter on Night Fishing at Antibes, more contemporary…cubism is so out.

Yes, it’s using the common film versioning differentiator, calling it the Encore Cut.
