Edited out...


There's a scene after Roy meets Ishmael. He goes to a corner store to get coffee and the store is out of milk. They refuse to open a new one for him, so he leaves angry. He spots a woman with a baby crossing the street. He helps her pull the stroller onto the sidewalk and he spills coffee on the baby as he looks at the tyke. After she leaves, it's revealed that he stole the milk and that he meant to do that so he could put milk in his coffee.

In the digital version of this movie, They edited out the store. It doesn't reduce time, the story isn't helped, and it looses a good joke that shows Roy's character for how awful he is. Did anyone else notice these edits?

Only thing I don't seem to see is the bungie jumping scene with munson in the towel

That is part of the extended version of the movie, not the theatrical release. Presumably, that's all that's available on the digital release. I've seen different channels air either the theatrical or extended over the years so it's easy to forget which is which.

This movie seems to be intentionally ignored by HBO/Cinemax/Showtime/MovieChannel/Epix. This is great movie to shove around in rotation for months on end yet they all prefer to show more Judd Apatow, Will Farrell, Owen Wilson faire
