On the one hand, that’s weird, on the other it’s fucking ridley scott. His final cuts are infamous, for one reason or another. He’ll come out with a director’s version, with the subtext being it’s the producer’s fault.
I just don’t understand how a director of his reputation doesn’t just get the green light from hollywood to do what he wants, but then I see the slop that’s in mainstream theaters and realize they’re not the brightest bunch

It could be capitalism. People watch a movie because ridley Scott. Same people buy the directors cut because ridley Scott
Hell even Spielberg does whatever the fuck he wants and gloats about it to their face.
