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

    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.

    There’s also the Nicolas Cage classic The Wicker Man. A version exists without his “Not the bees!” scene and let me tell you, that’s a disappointment.

    I watched 90% of a movie with “narration” turned on, and thought that “this movie is really fucking annoying. Yes, I see that the actor just did that, you don’t need to tell me.”

    How is no one mentioning why there are two versions of a movie only differing in soundtrack…? Seems bizarre to me

    Listening to the real soundtrack now, I’m so disappointed that my first watch was with… that version

    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

    I stumbled on a Harry Potter book that was leaked early. Read the entire thing, several hundred pages.

    The actual book came out and it was completely different. I had read a fan-fiction.

    Could never get back into the series as I had a ton of false memories from that book.

      Was it the “leaked” version of the Half Blood Prince? If so, a girl I was interested in sent that to me saying that her aunts friend worked for the publisher and I couldn’t show anyone or else they’d all go to jail. I was in high school so of course my mom was suspicious when I was spending hours reading something on the computer, so she made me tell her what it was, and I remember crying and begging her not to tell anyone that this girl I wanted to bang had sent it to me haha

    I watched the first half of “Nightcrawler” before I questioned why Jake Gyllenhaal didn’t have a German accent and the X-Men where nowhere in sight.

    Crash. In high school my buddy brought out all the weird horror and b-movies he could find, including crash, a movie about people who get busy after dangerous or injurious automobile incidents. Cut to a few years later, when my friend’s parents are telling me a how they thought crash was so powerful and everyone should see it, and how it was nominated for a bunch of oscars, I was completely perplexed.

    I watched the movie Hush, a horror movie about a deaf woman, on mute without knowing until after it was over. I thought it was a really creative artistic choice

        Well, it’s better to have them decoupled. For example, let’s say you’re trying to watch The Godfather in French, you wouldn’t want the scenes in Italy to have hardcoded English subs.
