It was on my list because of the soundtrack, so when I didn't hear the iconic track at all during the movie I looked it up.

Turns out that there is a re-scored version with a completely different soundtrack, and that was the version we got...

. Featuring an exclusive new soundtrack curated by Zane Lowe.

I will be watching this movie again next weekend, with the proper soundtrack

I am not sure if this counts but my mom put on Alien for me on Hulu, and it had some weird cuts in it. Turns out I had Hulu w/ Live TV so it was probably a cable edit of the film.

I ended up giving it an 8/10 but I bet I would have rated it higher if the cuts weren't so strange. I'll need to buy it on 4K and watch it properly at some point.

Wait rescored... Like without "Real Human Being?"

[–] [email protected] 16 points 3 days ago

It's Real Human Bean in this version.

I tried watching some armageddon type movie (not the Armageddon movie) and was quite a ways in until I realized it was some Christian knockoff.

I watched the last two harry potter parts in the wrong order, I was really confused why hogwarts suddenly looked like that.

This happened to me with the second Lord of the Rings trilogy. Ffs they dont put the number in the movie titles, so its really hard to figure out the order you're supposed to watch them

Second..trilogy? Do you mean the hobbit movies?

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago) (4 children)

Maybe? It was a trilogy about the dwarves and some dragon. Honeslty I dont remember it well because it was very confusing and out of order

That's a bummer. It's like watching Legend without the Tangerine Dream soundtrack, much as I adore the compositions of Jerry Goldsmith. Doesn't help that there's 4 or so versions, including Ridley Scott's overly self indulgent director's cut at nearly 2 hours.

Yup. Before Drive was officially released there was a pirated "screener" copy online with a different, and in my opinion better, soundtrack. It enhanced the movie in a more effective way than what we got in the official release. Especially the elevator scene.

Watched the movie again when it officially came out and went "wait a minute, this isn't right".

Not even sure if the screener copy is still available anywhere.

I watched "San Andreas Quake: Magnitude 10", waited for a long time wondering where is The Rock before I understood I The Asylum tricked me. Later, I saw the real movie but it was less fun than the mockbuster.

Yeah for some reason Stremio glitched once and played totally the wrong movie. I can't remember what I was trying to watch, but it ended up being about some weird US-Russian war from the folks on the ISS.I

I didn't realize what was going on until 75% of the way in

[–] [email protected] 1 points 2 days ago* (last edited 2 days ago)

Could it have been the movie version of Eon by Greg Bear? Haven't seen the movie, but sounds very similar to the book.

Side note: it took me like 6 years and a lot more reading before ran into Rendezvous with Rama by Arthur C. Clarke and realized that Eon was...heavily inspired by that book.

I don't think I have, but someone has to have watched a different Spiderman than they intended.

The chvrches song for that is a banger. The rest didn't grab me though, I've also only listened to the soundtrack not the rescore film itself

[–] [email protected] 6 points 3 days ago

Ok, I am super curious, because I don't know what version I have seen, or how to identify the other version!

Watched „Children of men“ expecting a good movie.

Turns out it’s some religious hate bs story.

Was really disappointed because the quality of the actors and the whole technical setup made the impression of a „could be good“-movie
