The first time I saw the Matrix, it was a pirated copy that was a final cut except it was missing all of the licensed music tracks. So all the dialog, foley, and even the original orchestral soundtrack were in place, but none of the tracks licensed from other artists/bands. This meant the nightclub at the beginning was a bunch of people dancing to nothing, and the lobby shootout was just gunshots and shattering concrete, and the end was just the sound of Neo flying into the sky. Does anyone still have a copy of this anywhere? I always assumed it was some kind of internal leak. The video quality was garbage, but I’ve love to see this cut again, see what holds up and what is worse.
That’s awesome! I’ll keep an eye out… Like 10 years ago, i accidentally found a leaked copy of Wolverine: Origins with the special effects half-finished. I’d love to see that again just for the weird nostalgia
I saw that! Greyed-out Wolverine model bouncing off the log truck lol
yeah, the work print version was legendary. it was out before the movie hit theaters.
That is the only version of that movie I have seen.
I watched that too!
I remember my friend setting up a movie night and inviting me and my other friends when he found a copy. That certainly was an amusing surprise.
I remember downloading it and not realizing it until I put it on. Sure was a disappointment — was way after DVD release too.
