Will the Farrely brothers issue an apology?

I'd love to tell them 'thank you'.

I think it is a worthy sequel to the original but the way it was released it was really sloppily edited, it was littered with throwaway dialogue and other bits that just really didn't belong. I made an alternate cut truncating all the excess fat and parts that present Lloyd to be uncharacteristically cold-hearted/mean-spirited, and I think the result is a much more watchable follow up (to the theatrical version of the original, the official version to me feels more like a love letter to the unrated). I wonder if that could have been a contributing factor in why there was so much hate, the way a movie is presented (even just one little lapse) can really determine its tone as a whole and I wonder if it would have been more widely revered if it were edited most properly. If you would like to see it you can just leave or PM me your email and I'll send it, and I would love to hear what you think 😀
