I decided to watch The Outsiders and apparently grabbed the new version that added 20 minutes. Not sure if its better or not yet, like it so far.

What films do you only watch the Director's cut and won't bother with original anymore?

Ones I am aware of people stating but haven't seen all of these:
Kingdom of Heaven
Superman II
X-men: DOFP Rogue Cut
Blade Runner

im pretty sure that's considered the definitive version by everyone for years now.

Apocalypse Now

It might be blasphemy to film geeks, but I like Redux a bit more.

________________________________
There are dozens of us! Dozens!

i enjoy most of the redux footage, though i think the movie is better off without all of it

Daredevil is way better, still not great but way better

LOTR, these are super long anyways but some of the added scenes I think are necessary, Saruman needed closure at least

One on hand, you get resolution with Sauraman and Grimer Wormtongue, beyond just "They're now trapped in the tower. Leave them there." And the scene at the Gates of Mordor with Sauron's messanger is pretty damn cool.

However, other stuff just doesn't add much, and kind of takes away the "suspense." Like with Aragorn drafting the army of the dead. It works better if they meet them in the cave, then the next time you see them is when they show up at the battle.
