This got me excited, and then...!

Yes, of course we saw the "director's cut" so let's not all get "brokeback purist" here. ;D I may be the only one who would like to see additional scenes and deleted material here, but I'm guessing that just might not be the case.
However, the term "director's cut" does come into play very often when films are released on DVD and for good reason--the theatrical run is complete and the movie publicity machine rules are no longer in play. No director in the world, including Ang Lee, will ever say when his or her film is in release that it is not the director's cut that they are less than 100% happy with the theatrical cut. Oliver Stone is a great example of this, who believes that film is a constantly evolving medium and continually revises cuts for DVDs, countries, demographics, etc.
Brandon -- agree the film is perfect as it is, but can't say I wouldn't like to see more of that closet scene as we all witnessed on the Independent Spirit Awards and the numerous other pieces we all know exist, at least in a supplementary section.
Surf -- I love April Fool's Day and watched it yesterday. A great line in the film from Deborah Foreman (Valley Girl): "On a clear day, you can see the Kennedys..."

You're not the only one, rt. I'd LOVE to see deleted scenes.
What a cruel, cruel joke... :'(
littleguitar:
LOL ;D ok, they got me... when I read that line though about a happy ending I almost flipped! I mean, I would like it if Jack didn't die but I was still going to be really really upset if they changed the ending! This movie is just perfect the way it is. I want deleted scenes but I want them on the special features...

I have no problems seeing deleted material...as long as it's kept deleted. What was shown in theatres was Ang's compplete and final vision and nothing less, he was under no pressure or influence when it came down to the final cut. What Oliver Stone does is ridiculous. It's like he can't make up his mind and it just undermines his work, like he has no integrity.
