4.Ok, when I listened to the commentary for the deleted scene (on my store bought dvd), Carpenter said he didn’t like the scene because it makes Plisken less of a badass. Plisken is supposed to be a selfish S.O.B who doesn’t care about anyone but himself (friends are here today and gone tomorrow in his book). This extra scene shows that Plisken “has a heart” and I think it works well in the movie. I think this will be the only version I’ll be watching from now on. Funny how MGM couldn’t do a “branching” dvd so this extra scene could be seen in the movie. Good thing we have talented people like Tranzor. Great stuff.
