Kingdom of Heaven | Why the Director's Cut is Better |
|
This video essay discusses the Director's Cut of Ridley Scott's masterpiece "Kingdom of Heaven" and why it is in every way, shape, and form a significant improvement on the theatrical release. One of my earliest videos actually covered this very same topic, but I basically spent the better part of six minutes rambling about run-time, so this time I wanted to do it justice and effectively break down just why the Director's Cut is so much better than the original version.
Here's a thorough breakdown with text and images(studiously written by Doc Idaho for a deeper examination of the scene by scene differences between the two versions) https://www.movie-censorship.com/report.php?ID=3097 Visit my website: https://www.danielnetzel.com Check out my shop!: https://teespring.com/stores/film-radar-shop Kingdom of Heaven Director's Cut DVD(full disclosure, this is an affiliate link): http://amzn.to/2EUU7NU The Ultimate Edition(with more behind the scenes, again, affiliate link): http://amzn.to/2CINdJJ The Blu-Ray(sadly it appears no Roadshow presentation, once again, affiliate link): http://amzn.to/2BQfLEc Support through my affiliate link: http://www.dollarshaveclub.com/filmradar Or through Patreon: http://www.patreon.com/filmradar Or through a one-time PayPal donation: https://www.paypal.me/danielnetzel Follow me: http://www.patreon.com/filmradar http://www.facebook.com/thefilmradar http://www.twitter.com/film_radar |
