I could have sworn I saw The Lost World Jurassic Park as a child back in the 90's on UTV (in Ireland) with all the deleted scenes in with the original film! Why is it that they have been removed e.g te Ingen board meeting etc
Are there versions of the film with these scenes reintegrated back into the film?
There is a version that includes the two cut scenes. I think it was shown on Fox.
It's possible you saw that edition.
Yes last time they also showed it on Syfy like that... it's just two scenes, but they are great...especially the one with Roland Tembo & Ajay.
The editing doesn't make any sense though... since Ian standing in front of the tropic subway poster happens after the boardroom meeting... and it was made to come directly after the opening scene on the Island.... weird. They should be switched.
Other deleted scenes:
After the stegasaurus there was a little extra scene with Sarah: Isn't this great?!
Ajay and Roland tie the baby rex up and Ludlow falls on it's leg (some stills exist of this)
Triceratops extended break out across the camp, in the film it breaks out and immediately runs into the van... but there is a whole sequence cut out... it runs across the camp with a burning tarp with workers fleeing. This was shown in a making of in 1997 on the BBC...actual footage...not behind the scenes stuff.
