I can't believe the deleted scenes are more than half the length of the original runtime. I'd live to see a 3 hour cut with all this footage spliced in.
These are all from first half of film there must be more out there somewhere to be discovered for the rest of the film, need a special anniversary dvd with them all.
@@vintagemovielover4511The 4K Ultra HD Blu-Ray has all discovered deleted scenes. It is $15 at Target right now. That’s the source of the footage in this video.
I would too, it doesn't matter if it'd make the movie too long because it would still be very interesting to see the whole thing deleted scenes and all all tied together. I like Del, John Candy made him into a great character, but the extended airplane scenes sort of lead to me understanding a bit more Neil finally losing it with him later in the motel and commenting on his long pointless ramblings. 9:06 - even that old man is looking at Del like "when are you gonna shut the f*** up already!?" Lol
It now makes sense that the motel thief was the pizza delivery guy. They should have left that part in. They also should have left the part in where Del was in the bathroom because that explained why the bathroom was a mess when Neal stepped out of the shower. Some of these deleted scenes answer questions I’ve had.
John Candy being a dignified classy Gentleman that he was I bet secretly hated playing this Fat Nasty Slob of a man because he probably felt like he was playing into insulting stereotypes for overweight people.
All of it? Even the part where he took off his shoes and socks and rubbed his bare feet on the plane? I was a bit disappointed that he didn't actually show us his left bare foot, just part of it
Out of everything, they should have included the part when Neal apologizes to Del because he felt that he really hurt him with that speech, and in return Del apologizes because he messed up the night for Neal. This would have been perfect for the story and shows why the next morning they are able to have breakfast together.
It would've been better if their apologies were left in there. And in fact, it looked like, after Del's response to Neil's rant "I'm the real article", Neil's facial expression indicated that he was now feeling a little remorse about the way he spoke to him (the music that started then also gave off that feeling). Neil didn't quite expect Dels response to his raving to be tugging at the heartstrings a little bit. He probably just expected Del to snap back at him like he was doing, or to just passive-aggressively not say much back. But the way Del actually responded made Neil feel sort of sorry for how he spoke to him. Also, because of the apology scene, their reaction was less angry about waking up cuddled together than it would've been if they fought the night before without apologizing. It was still no doubt uncomfortable for them either way, but they had less anger about it than they could've because they right away knew that they were half asleep and thought they were cuddling their wives, and that neither of them were gay. If either of them assumed they were, they definitely would've had an uglier more unsettled reaction, I mean, this was the 80s. Either way though, it was funny that they both chose to then immediately not verbally acknowledge what they accidentally did and instead talk about the latest Chicago Bears 🐻 game, "Bears all the way"
I agree completely! To be quite honest,all of this footage was fantastic and deserved to have been included. The deleted scenes of "Doobie" threatening Neil,and Del trying to reign him in and scold him like a mom was a riot and show how truly unstable the cab driver was. "Are you looking at my hair?" I've always wished that Steve Martin and John Candy would have done more films together. John Candy left us far too soon.
Obvious they edited a ton it explains some things you really didn't give much thought. I think Hughes knew you would figure it out. For instance the pizza kid robbing I figured he knew the front office guy. Probably did. But you didn't know they had an earlier contact. But all of a sudden this kid enters and steals their cash. it just makes more sense statistically when somebody breaks in they been there before. Or how'd the beer end up on the bed. What beer? But you didn't care.
I actually thought it was good the apology was left out. That happened too early in their relationship. The expression on Neil's face and his returning to bed were enough.
@@jerrycallows3906Totally agree. In the Final Cut I thought it was perfect because you could tell by the look on Neal’s face after Del says what you see is what you get that Neal regretted what he said and realized he hurt Del. It was more than enough to show he still cared about Del despite being annoyed with him.
On the plane, the old man sitting at the window next to Candy and Martin, is the character on Seinfeld when Jerry volunteers to hang out with a senior citizen.
In a movie like this just one minute of a deleted scene is a crime because that doesn't let us enjoy all the time with these fascinating characters. And one minute is essential to understand them better. A real good movie is never too long...but Hollywood producers will never understand that...
Yeah. And back in the 80s when you could get beer delivered with your pizza. Delivering alcohol after then started becoming alot less common because of how difficult it is to show proof of age over the phone
Paul Hirsch edited this movie. It is said that an editor makes a bad director look good, and a good director look great, and a great director look like a genius. Hirsch is a genius and makes John Hughes look like the master he was. This footage is edited deleted scenes. You have to imagine Hirsch looking at pure, raw footage from each camera set-up and assembling the shots and scenes so as to invoke interest, emotion, empathy, sympathy and solidarity with the characters and their situations. The motel scenes alone are a master class in editing. Like Bob Seger sang, "what to leave in, what to leave out." Paul Hirsch wrote his autobiography in 2019 call 'A Long Time Ago, In A Cutting Room, Far, Far, Away . . . ' about his experiences working with and editing films for great directors such as Brian DePalma, George Lucas, Irvin Kirshner and John Hughes. Well worth picking up.
The scene when they step into the room. The tense music starts, pans the room, cuts to them looking at one another. No words, but big laugh. “You wanna take a shower?”…
@@kevinneal2575 Ira Newborn's utterly brilliant, eclectic score of tense, easy-going and fun instrumental symphonic, quirky synth, blues, and funky rhythmic calypso-pop, gives the movie its sonic charm.
There’s more deleted scenes that’ve yet to be discovered, such as; - Extended phone conversation scenes between Neil and his wife - A sub-plot where Neil’s wife thinks he’s cheating on him with Del (whom she thinks is a woman) - A scene before the State Trooper pulls over Del & Neil were Del asks Neil if he’s ever been to Hawaii - A scene in which the State Trooper tells Neil & Del they’ve driven past Chicago and are in Wisconsin, which leads to an altercation between Del & Neil - A scene in which Del & Neil stop at a local strip club to use the phone after their car catches fire - A scene that takes place after the State Trooper impounded the burnt car in which Del tells Neil he didn’t get rental insurance (since he used Neil’s credit card) and Neil punches Del in the face (which explains his black eye at the end of the film) - And a scene after Del tells Neil his wife’s dead, where Del tells Neil how him & his wife couldn’t have a kid and after she died he just left the house they lived in and never returned
Thanks for this excellent information! Do you know the link for the video with these scenes, or are they on a DVD / Blu-ray? If on a disk, please specify the release version and year. I greatly appreciate it! Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours!
You mean Del had a house to live in but just chose not to live there anymore because of his wife's death? So all that time, he could've gone back there to live in that house if he wanted to instead of wandering from place to place without a home? Also, if Neil was homeless and couldn't afford a roof over his head, how could he afford airline travel? Wouldn't it be wiser to spend whatever money you have to get off the street and into an accommodation first, and then flying on airlines second?
I reallt miss John Candy. I enjoyed everything he did,back to his SCTV days. He was always a likeable guy and I was very sad when he left us at such a young age. When tbey paired him with Steve Martin (another great) it made for a fantastic film. I watched this one many times and even bought the VHS when it was new. Its truly a shame that the studio forced Hughes to cut the film back because THEY thought its run time was too long. I would have gladly watched it if it ran 4 hours in length. With the advent of DVDS and BluRay someone shoukd put it all back together and issue a "directors cut" of "Planes,Trains & Automobiles". The writing,pace and acting of this film was superb. All this deleted footage deserves to be restored and preserved. The ending when Neil finds out the Del's wife had passed and brings his unlikely friend home,is very touching.
It is too long for a comedy though, and another reason why they cut so much out is because the shit John. Candys character was doing was something that would make the audience hate him, remember they're trying to set the ending up to feel sympathy for him, not say well he deserves to be alone. It wasn't the studio either it was the test audience, they didn't like candy's character because of all the bad nasty, and grotesque shit he was doing.
These deleted scenes are great but the movie is a comedic masterpiece just the way it is.. I feel like I’m in an alternate universe watching this for the first time 😳
Yeah, except Del was being a real prick with him, much more so than he was to anyone the rest of the movie. The theatrical cut made Del in general come across as a really nice understanding guy, but this pizza guy scene changed the view of Del's character a little
These scenes are great! Made the movie make a little more sense. Like, i always wondered how Neil didn't notice the messy bathroom BEFORE he got in the shower.. now this explains it!
When Del says he’s not used to having a roommate in the motel scene, I can see why it was cut. It would have clued some people in that maybe he was a widow or had been divorced. Some of these scenes are great and some are a miss.
In case a dedicated fan hasn’t done it already, I’d love to watch an “extended” cut of this with the missing footage spliced in - mainly the airplane meal conversation, Del messing up the bathroom, and the pizza boy scene.
Wow! They should have left so much of this in. Especially the cab part and the hotel room scenes,with the added rabt and the apologies. I wish Steve Martin and John Candy made more movies together.. And the robbery scene makes sense now that we understand the pizza boy did it
Honestly, this version makes you realize why the Neil seemed to hate him so much in the first place. The movie just makes him look like, well, to quote Del, "a cold hearted cynic".
@@jackthomas6952 Ultimately he is a good person. But you can be a really good person and also have kind of a rotten attitude about stuff. Again, cynical. I think Del did help him grow as a person, and vice versa.
So many more things make sense in the movie now. The extra scenes on the plane now make it more obvious as to why Neal cut him off in the movie seemingly so quickly - he had listened to a heck of a lot more than what was shown in the final cut.
I think they were right to edit some of this stuff out and the film has a good run time. Sometimes less is more when explaining people's feelings and John and Steve did a great job conveying their feelings with simple looks. I would have left in the annoyances of air travel and some of the scenes with the food and old man on the plane. That was funny and very relatable to people who travel.
This is weird because I watched it a million times. Priceless. This puts a prospective on things. You could be an actor like the cab driver thinking you got 15 min. and you end up with one sentence or maybe nothing. but they had plenty of material to work with.
Crazy thing is there's a whole bunch of other stuff that's not included here. They filmed a ton of stuff between the beginning of the movie and when they get to the airport in the beginning. Also, the entire sequence with Michael McKean and them going to jail, fighting over Del not getting insurance for the rental car, Neil punching him, etc. I think there was some other stuff involving the whole subplot with Neil's wife thinking he was cheating on her. Then of course the final sequence where Del tells his story to Neil at a diner.
This movie would've been too long and dragged at times if they left all of these deleted scenes in, such as Del's constant talking on the plane, it almost makes Neil's yelling at him about it in the motel room more understandable. Some of these deleted scenes made Del look like more of a jerkass such as how he talked to the pizza guy, where in the theatrical cut Del overall seems like a really nice guy with a good heart. He's a bigger prick and more annoying in these deleted scenes than in almost all of the theatrical scenes.
I’m so glad this was released. As long as people watch and enjoy filmmaking as an art, and who can laugh at life, then John Candy will live forever. And Steve Martin. And John Hughes. ❤
The deleted/unedited scenes make me more sympathetic for Neal. He expresses more patience and concern for Del. And we see a whole lot more Del blabbering on and generally being annoying.
Yeah. But the plane scene became a bit too long with all of it left in there, it started making Del seem more like a blabbermouth and made Neil's rant about it later in the motel room start seeming more understandable. I'm kinda surprised that even in the deleted bits on the plane, we don't see Neil reading the vomit bag (because of Neil telling Del in his rant later "Who was that who kept talking my ear off on the plane, I'm curious, who was that!? Didn't you notice how eventually I was reading the vomit bag!? Didn't that give you some sort of clue that maybe this guy's not enjoying this!?")
Yeah, it did. And it made it make more sense on why he snuck back into their room later to rob them. And the cab scene made that cab driver look like a much darker and crazier character than he appeared in the theatrical cut. The only thing he said in the theatrical cut was "You said your friend ain't from around here so I thought I'd show him around", the whole rest of it was cut
RIP John!!! He was such a great guy and a talented actor!! 2of the best actors Ever!! Love them both!! Thank you for the great video!! Love this movie so much!! 💙💙❤️❤️🌹🌹🌺🌺🦋🦋🥰🥰😊😊💖💖💜💜🙏🙏🙏😢😢
I still think it was a brilliant choice to clip some scenes away. We get a little more understanding of the story but it is almost too much! I prefer the way it was cut. We need movies on this level again, and the chemistry between Steve and John is so good. And they should have been awarded an Oscar for this. Both are so good especially John no both
He hadn't made it into the movies yet in 1987, the time of this movie, not until Uncle Buck in 1989, that was his first movie, Home Alone in 1990 was his second.
Yeah, but they also make Neil look less like an intolerant prick and more like he's having understandable reactions most anybody would have. Later in the movie when Neil gets home to his wife and kids, you could see that he's really a good guy who loves his family and isn't a prick, and now with the extended scenes making his reactions to Del even more understandable, you can believe that even more. But you're right, the extended scenes made Del more hard to take and harder to sympathize with, plus they would've made the movie drag on too much, so I see why they cut them out. Also, it would've made Del's reveal late in the movie less of a gut punch because we wouldn't have felt for him as much. But the cuts did make Neil look like a more intolerant guy. Maybe they should've left a few more things in the movie, just not as many as we saw in this video
There's another scene which was cut which makes Del look even worse. The scene at the end where Neal goes back to the train station, that's actually him arriving at him home train station and Del had followed him there. They used clever editing and flipping/reversing footage to make it look like he went back to the station where he left Del (notice in the shot where Neal gets off the train, his hair is parted the other way and the number on the train is back to front). Del then gives a big speech about how it's not fair that he doesn't have a life as good as Neal's. Test audiences thought Del came across really badly so John Hughes made some drastic last minute changes.
@@DustyJones1997BGCL Hughes and the editor Paul Hirsch had turned in a cut that was under two hours, but it tested poorly at the test screenings primarily because they found Del so unlikable. After further trimming and fixing the ending so that Neal returned to Del (originally Neal found Del waiting for him at his local train stop, effectively making him a stalker), they ended up at the current runtime with much better results at the next test screening.
I love this movie. I don’t think these scenes really add anything but some fun trivia. The chatter on the airplane made me irritated and uncomfortable. I think the movie we got was perfection.
I liked John Candy as Del, but his very long chattering in these additional scenes on the plane did make me more understand Neil for lashing out at him later in the motel scene. Also, the theatrical cut made Del in general seem like a nice understanding guy. But when adding the entire scene with the pizza guy and seeing Del being a real asshole with him, that sorta changed the overall type of guy he was. And like I said, the extended airplane part made him more annoying
This movie is a master piece, it was already insanely uncomfortable without the1.5hs cut, I can only imagine how the other part is They don't make anymore movies like this, but there aren't good actors anymore like does
I think Del would have tipped the delivery boy more, one, if he actually looked at the number on the door, and if he set the pizza down on the bed rather than throw it.😂😂😂
The last ten minutes of the video made me laugh so hard I almost pissed myself.. 😂 Neal's character was so animated and just disgusted with Dell because he asked him if it was ok to fart in bed . 😆
Proof of the value of editing. Less is more. We can infer much about Neal and especially Del without being hit over the head. Del should be uncouth but likeable, and his interaction with the pizza kid would have challenged that notion too much, IMHO. The dick and fart language is a bit unnecessarily broad, as well. The theatrical version remains charming and a favorite. Can't count how many times I've watched it.
Right same scenes just edited. I like when he flung the crumb off his shirt and goes gotta tee it up. lol Or the little kid with the stewardess. And he blabbed his head off way more on the plane. WOW. Neal Down and the pizza guy's the one that robbed them. and it leads up to Neal accusing of stealing. interesting. Now you know how the beer ended up on the bed.
In the beginnend of the movie, where neulich is trying to get a cab, is the music from ira newborn? Okay, first time smartphone comment ended very weird. 🙂 Next try: Where Neal Page is trying to get a cab and he falls, was this music from Ira Newborn or from Dream Academy?
Some of the deleted scenes are very funny, but some of them would be a serious detraction from the film. They make Del look less naive and bumbling and more selfish and obnoxious. That would've changed the original feel of the film completely.
They did a great job editing the film just right. Most of this would have changed the quality of the film, making it too crude or bizarre, like Doogie the cab driver threatening to kill Neal. interesting to see the cut scenes, and makes you appreciate the excellent editing job that made the movie such a classic. It certainty proves how important great editing is everything to a films success.
Taxi scene went on way too long and got too dark and awkward. Glad that was cut down but the airplane scene including the "airplane food" segment which has been out a while should have always been kept in. Too bad there's still over an hour of additional footage we havent seen and may never get to see.
Yeah where the girl puts her hair in the brownie I’m surprised they didn’t add that in with this that was like the upn 9 tv version that was funny as hell to so many different versions to the greatest movie of all time!
@@MrMaximino92 It has an hour worth of footage, but not what jeepthing98's referring to. There is still a ton of footage that hasn't been uncovered or released yet that's known to exist, based on stills and the original script. One theory was that John Hughes still had that footage, but it's hard telling as he's been gone 15 years now. :/

- Extended phone conversation scenes between Neil and his wife
- A sub-plot where Neil’s wife thinks he’s cheating on him with Del (whom she thinks is a woman)
- A scene before the State Trooper pulls over Del & Neil were Del asks Neil if he’s ever been to Hawaii

- A scene in which Del & Neil stop at a local strip club to use the phone after their car catches fire
- A scene that takes place after the State Trooper impounded the burnt car in which Del tells Neil he didn’t get rental insurance (since he used Neil’s credit card) and Neil punches Del in the face (which explains his black eye at the end of the film)
- And a scene after Del tells Neil his wife’s dead, where Del tells Neil how him & his wife couldn’t have a kid and after she died he just left the house they lived in and never returned

OK! In all my years of watching this movie, I really believe the pizza boy scene should have been left!
Yeah, except Del was being a real prick with him, much more so than he was to anyone the rest of the movie. The theatrical cut made Del in general come across as a really nice understanding guy, but this pizza guy scene changed the view of Del's character a little
I agree, it made me confused when I saw him robbing them since it didn't make sense how he would know to rob their room
After watching the motel room scenes, Neil’s outburst is more justified.
yeah, i still feel Dels hurt, but i see more of Neil's side as well
These scenes are great! Made the movie make a little more sense. Like, i always wondered how Neil didn't notice the messy bathroom BEFORE he got in the shower.. now this explains it!
When Del says he’s not used to having a roommate in the motel scene, I can see why it was cut. It would have clued some people in that maybe he was a widow or had been divorced.
Some of these scenes are great and some are a miss.
@@macysondheim Who watches the deleted scenes before they watch the movie? People who should expect spoilers, that's who. 😂
The scene where he talks to his wife's picture did seem to indicate that he missed her very much and kind of hinted that she was not around.
@@littlesongbird1 Yes they do apply to those who haven’t viewed it before, & saying otherwise is discrimination.
@@macysondheimHe spoiled a 36 year old movie for you? 😂
In case a dedicated fan hasn’t done it already, I’d love to watch an “extended” cut of this with the missing footage spliced in - mainly the airplane meal conversation, Del messing up the bathroom, and the pizza boy scene.
The plane dinner made me SCREAM WITH LAUGHTER 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
This movie was really well edited down. I appreciate you uploading this very interesting to see the outtakes.
The part where del says im a human being after neal's rant and neil looks down in guilt is heartbreaking, even moreso since candys death
On the airplane: pure genius! Amazing to finally enjoy the whole scene. Del goes on and on and on 😂. How we miss U, John Candy, RIP.
Wow! They should have left so much of this in. Especially the cab part and the hotel room scenes,with the added rabt and the apologies. I wish Steve Martin and John Candy made more movies together..
And the robbery scene makes sense now that we understand the pizza boy did it
Honestly, this version makes you realize why the Neil seemed to hate him so much in the first place. The movie just makes him look like, well, to quote Del, "a cold hearted cynic".
Neil puts up with ALOT. He’s actually a pretty good guy.
@@jackthomas6952 Ultimately he is a good person. But you can be a really good person and also have kind of a rotten attitude about stuff. Again, cynical. I think Del did help him grow as a person, and vice versa.
A family ritual for us each year. Classic film!
This movie will always be in the top 5 of my favorite movies of all times
So many more things make sense in the movie now. The extra scenes on the plane now make it more obvious as to why Neal cut him off in the movie seemingly so quickly - he had listened to a heck of a lot more than what was shown in the final cut.
I think it actually works because they don’t need you to like Neal Page until the end of the movie.
That explains why they got robbed. Nice upload, these are funny extra scenes
I think they were right to edit some of this stuff out and the film has a good run time. Sometimes less is more when explaining people's feelings and John and Steve did a great job conveying their feelings with simple looks. I would have left in the annoyances of air travel and some of the scenes with the food and old man on the plane. That was funny and very relatable to people who travel.
The new 4K Blu-ray release has over 75 minutes of deleted scenes
This is weird because I watched it a million times. Priceless. This puts a prospective on things. You could be an actor like the cab driver thinking you got 15 min. and you end up with one sentence or maybe nothing. but they had plenty of material to work with.
Crazy thing is there's a whole bunch of other stuff that's not included here. They filmed a ton of stuff between the beginning of the movie and when they get to the airport in the beginning. Also, the entire sequence with Michael McKean and them going to jail, fighting over Del not getting insurance for the rental car, Neil punching him, etc. I think there was some other stuff involving the whole subplot with Neil's wife thinking he was cheating on her. Then of course the final sequence where Del tells his story to Neil at a diner.
Where can I find it ?
This movie would've been too long and dragged at times if they left all of these deleted scenes in, such as Del's constant talking on the plane, it almost makes Neil's yelling at him about it in the motel room more understandable.
Some of these deleted scenes made Del look like more of a jerkass such as how he talked to the pizza guy, where in the theatrical cut Del overall seems like a really nice guy with a good heart. He's a bigger prick and more annoying in these deleted scenes than in almost all of the theatrical scenes.
I’m so glad this was released. As long as people watch and enjoy filmmaking as an art, and who can laugh at life, then John Candy will live forever. And Steve Martin. And John Hughes. ❤
The deleted/unedited scenes make me more sympathetic for Neal. He expresses more patience and concern for Del. And we see a whole lot more Del blabbering on and generally being annoying.
a lot of scenes here should have been kept, the extended pre take off scene comes to mind.
Yeah. But the plane scene became a bit too long with all of it left in there, it started making Del seem more like a blabbermouth and made Neil's rant about it later in the motel room start seeming more understandable.
I'm kinda surprised that even in the deleted bits on the plane, we don't see Neil reading the vomit bag (because of Neil telling Del in his rant later "Who was that who kept talking my ear off on the plane, I'm curious, who was that!? Didn't you notice how eventually I was reading the vomit bag!? Didn't that give you some sort of clue that maybe this guy's not enjoying this!?")
thanks for this. pizza guy scene , should of been in the movie. made it even funnier.
Yeah, it did. And it made it make more sense on why he snuck back into their room later to rob them.
And the cab scene made that cab driver look like a much darker and crazier character than he appeared in the theatrical cut. The only thing he said in the theatrical cut was "You said your friend ain't from around here so I thought I'd show him around", the whole rest of it was cut
One of my fav movies !! The way he chews gum is so obnoxious it’s addicting 😂😂😂
The pizza part had me rolling i was literally dying of laughter wow what a funny movie.😂😂😂😂😂
Miss John Candy so much.
I hope they find more deleted scenes. I've love to see scene where Neal and Del talk in the diner after Neal finds out the truth about Del's wife.
The editor done a great job , perfect editing
Academy Award winner *Paul Hirsch*
RIP John!!! He was such a great guy and a talented actor!! 2of the best actors Ever!! Love them both!! Thank you for the great video!! Love this movie so much!! 💙💙❤️❤️🌹🌹🌺🌺🦋🦋🥰🥰😊😊💖💖💜💜🙏🙏🙏😢😢
This is just a reminder of how much power an editor has over shaping a movie. They really should share the director's credit.
I still think it was a brilliant choice to clip some scenes away. We get a little more understanding of the story but it is almost too much! I prefer the way it was cut. We need movies on this level again, and the chemistry between Steve and John is so good. And they should have been awarded an Oscar for this. Both are so good especially John no both
Mcauley culken should of been that kid taking about the Pepsi 🔥🔥🔥🔥
He hadn't made it into the movies yet in 1987, the time of this movie, not until Uncle Buck in 1989, that was his first movie, Home Alone in 1990 was his second.
Thats too funny 😂
Funny you say that that old man was in home alone
Nah Fuller is the king of Pepsi! lol
Fantastic!! Absolutely hilarious!! I really can't believe that they didn't use these scenes!!
Love seeing this, it's like everything we missed. Just adds to the story
Thanks for posting this. Explains so much context. The original movie works great. But there is some scenes should have been included. :D Rip John
Candy talking about Shower curtains getting a bad name because of Psycho - comedy GOLD. This is AMAZING footage.
Wow I never realized before what a great job they do with the background music in the scene where they get into the heated argument.
I want a fucking car… right fucking now.
This was one of the funniest but saddest films I've ever seen.
I can see why these scenes were cut. They make Del look way too unbearable.
Yeah, but they also make Neil look less like an intolerant prick and more like he's having understandable reactions most anybody would have. Later in the movie when Neil gets home to his wife and kids, you could see that he's really a good guy who loves his family and isn't a prick, and now with the extended scenes making his reactions to Del even more understandable, you can believe that even more.
But you're right, the extended scenes made Del more hard to take and harder to sympathize with, plus they would've made the movie drag on too much, so I see why they cut them out. Also, it would've made Del's reveal late in the movie less of a gut punch because we wouldn't have felt for him as much. But the cuts did make Neil look like a more intolerant guy. Maybe they should've left a few more things in the movie, just not as many as we saw in this video
There's another scene which was cut which makes Del look even worse. The scene at the end where Neal goes back to the train station, that's actually him arriving at him home train station and Del had followed him there. They used clever editing and flipping/reversing footage to make it look like he went back to the station where he left Del (notice in the shot where Neal gets off the train, his hair is parted the other way and the number on the train is back to front). Del then gives a big speech about how it's not fair that he doesn't have a life as good as Neal's. Test audiences thought Del came across really badly so John Hughes made some drastic last minute changes.
I’m still amazed Del got a beer on the flight
They've always served alcoholic beverages on flights. They still do, you just have to pay extra for them.
THE CATTLE CAR😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂LOL 😂😂😂
Best bunch of deleted scenes since Spinal Tap!
Although most of this didn't make the cut, these scenes downright kill. John Candy would've gotten an Oscar had they been left in. Brilliant.
John Candy left us way too soon
Great scenes in this movie!
They don’t make funny movies like this anymore!
How could you not want to talk and hang out with Del. He isnt polished but he is fun and a good guy
Holy cow, I've never seen ANY of this extra stuff on PTA! That crazy cabbie car ride turned awfully dark, eh? 😂
WHEN HE FALLS OFF THE BED for the beer, WAAHAAHAHAHAHAHAAHAHAH!!!!!!!
This would be a perfect stage play.
Good to know there was no cutting of the legend that was Owen, Gus’s son! NchaNchaaa spit !
The pacing is too slow, but no doubt an editor could tighten it up
I might be in the minority here, but I can see why these scenes were deleted. Most of them were really bad.
Agree. It's like they're from another movie.
After watching these deleted scenes, overall it made Del a hateable character and you cannot really blame Neil for not liking him
Agreed.
@@DustyJones1997BGCL Hughes and the editor Paul Hirsch had turned in a cut that was under two hours, but it tested poorly at the test screenings primarily because they found Del so unlikable. After further trimming and fixing the ending so that Neal returned to Del (originally Neal found Del waiting for him at his local train stop, effectively making him a stalker), they ended up at the current runtime with much better results at the next test screening.
Crazy thing is there may be more footage out there as the original is said to be something like 3.5 hours long!
Why oh why has it not been released 😢
We really need the extended movie as it feels like holes in the story are present in the small length #HughesCut
All of them should have been included in the movie 😂
I love this movie. I don’t think these scenes really add anything but some fun trivia. The chatter on the airplane made me irritated and uncomfortable. I think the movie we got was perfection.
I liked John Candy as Del, but his very long chattering in these additional scenes on the plane did make me more understand Neil for lashing out at him later in the motel scene. Also, the theatrical cut made Del in general seem like a nice understanding guy. But when adding the entire scene with the pizza guy and seeing Del being a real asshole with him, that sorta changed the overall type of guy he was. And like I said, the extended airplane part made him more annoying
@@alvexok5523100%
Dito
Yes it was annoying but also explained Neil’s rant about his pointless anecdotes
@@alvexok5523yess ! He was an ass to the pizza bloke and not like him, and his boring anecdotes deserved Neil’s rant
The cattle car😂😂😂😂LOL 😂I was
This movie is a master piece, it was already insanely uncomfortable without the1.5hs cut, I can only imagine how the other part is
They don't make anymore movies like this, but there aren't good actors anymore like does
Nothing that got deleted would have been worth keeping, in my opinion. I think the cut we got works beautifully.
Exactly. A masterpiece of editing
This is aa best number One movie wow❤❤❤❤
I think Del would have tipped the delivery boy more, one, if he actually looked at the number on the door, and if he set the pizza down on the bed rather than throw it.😂😂😂
So! The pizza delivery guy stole their money!
"Pebble glass shower doors took a big bite out of our sales for several years after that." lol
The last ten minutes of the video made me laugh so hard I almost pissed myself.. 😂 Neal's character was so animated and just disgusted with Dell because he asked him if it was ok to fart in bed . 😆
Neil’s pointless anecdote rant scene makes more sense now after this!
Bruh all these deleted scenes had me 💀 😂😂😂😂
I want to see the part where the state trooper pulls them over and explains they overshot Chicago.
Proof of the value of editing. Less is more. We can infer much about Neal and especially Del without being hit over the head. Del should be uncouth but likeable, and his interaction with the pizza kid would have challenged that notion too much, IMHO. The dick and fart language is a bit unnecessarily broad, as well. The theatrical version remains charming and a favorite. Can't count how many times I've watched it.
Right same scenes just edited. I like when he flung the crumb off his shirt and goes gotta tee it up. lol Or the little kid with the stewardess. And he blabbed his head off way more on the plane. WOW. Neal Down and the pizza guy's the one that robbed them. and it leads up to Neal accusing of stealing. interesting. Now you know how the beer ended up on the bed.
In the beginnend of the movie, where neulich is trying to get a cab, is the music from ira newborn?
Okay, first time smartphone comment ended very weird. 🙂
Next try: Where Neal Page is trying to get a cab and he falls, was this music from Ira Newborn or from Dream Academy?
Some of the deleted scenes are very funny, but some of them would be a serious detraction from the film. They make Del look less naive and bumbling and more selfish and obnoxious. That would've changed the original feel of the film completely.
Dito
They did a great job editing the film just right. Most of this would have changed the quality of the film, making it too crude or bizarre, like Doogie the cab driver threatening to kill Neal. interesting to see the cut scenes, and makes you appreciate the excellent editing job that made the movie such a classic. It certainty proves how important great editing is everything to a films success.
I definitely liked Doobie more when he was a guy with a cool cab that was just proud of his town.
"Have you seen BIRDS?" Hahah.
The funniest movie I ever saw .
Do you have more of the deleted footage you can post?
Taxi scene went on way too long and got too dark and awkward. Glad that was cut down but the airplane scene including the "airplane food" segment which has been out a while should have always been kept in. Too bad there's still over an hour of additional footage we havent seen and may never get to see.
Yeah where the girl puts her hair in the brownie I’m surprised they didn’t add that in with this that was like the upn 9 tv version that was funny as hell to so many different versions to the greatest movie of all time!
There’s a 4K Blu-Ray edition with that over an hour footage.
@@MrMaximino92 It has an hour worth of footage, but not what jeepthing98's referring to. There is still a ton of footage that hasn't been uncovered or released yet that's known to exist, based on stills and the original script. One theory was that John Hughes still had that footage, but it's hard telling as he's been gone 15 years now. :/
