so the new American president... (SPOILERS AHEAD)


This question is only for those who've seen the director's cut: the new president is KA, isn't he?





reply

Da, comrade!

If you come back and remember, can you tell me why Winter and Salt never met each other as children? I had no subtitles!

reply

He said he was the prototype of the KA program. They weren't in the same class or year.



reply

Thanks for the help comrade!

If they make a sequel to this film, the US President as a russian spy angle would be out of this world over the top

reply

Yeah, that's what I've been saying! No one seems to agree with me that the director's cut had the awesomest ending.



reply

I agree with thee, o my brother!

The Director's Cut was BETTER than the theatrical overall.
I wished they showed that instead.

reply

Absolutely agree with you.

I've only seen the director's cut and absolutely LOVED it. When I heard about the changes they made for the theatrical cut I was just confused. Not just the ending (which was BRILLIANT), but also what happens to the husband. The change just seemed bizarre when the original scene was so moving. *scratches head*

And OF COURSE they couldn't let the President die in the movie. *facepalm*

reply

Well, some tea baggers are claiming that President Obama is a Muslim spy.

Show me the holes!

reply

Even had they met, there would be no guarantee that they would recognize each other as adults or even fellow Russians.

reply

It already hit me in quite the way to realize that Winters was a CIA higher-up... right next to the freakin' president :wow:

ORANGE for all

Just saw it and came here to seek others who noticed that.

Also, at first I thought that would mean the president is Salt's brother, for some reason. But maybe that would be too much of a twist.

What part of the Director's Cut makes you think that? Just curious.


reply

Because the story for how his parents died is almost exactly the same as the story for how Salt's parents died.
