There's another scene in "A New Hope" that I'm sure that I've seen where C3PO gets trapped in the wall on the Corvette. (Very similar to the scene where the computer eats Annie Ross in Superman 3.) It's where he's coming from when he finds R2 and Leia in the corridor. It's in the book, so I'm pretty sure I'm not totally imagining it, but I swear I've seen it before.
Uh... those first two scenes from ST:TMP weren't deleted. They have been in every version I've ever watched, from Laserdisc and VHS, to DVD and bluray. I watched them three times to see if there were perhaps longer versions or something, but they are word for word the same as the released version of the scene.
Those first two clips have been the bane of my existance. I knew they existed but every one always said they didn't and said that there was no way I could have seen them in a theatrical release because I wasn't around yet.
So the first two were the scenes too crappy for Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen? How did the poor editor choose? I wonder if he ever contemplated taking his old job back, editing the boring scenes out of fishing shows.
In the second Batman Forever clip, when Bruce Wayne asked, "What's in there?" I half expected Alfred to reply,"Only what you take with you. You're weapons. You will not need them."
@Bill-Lee: well I don't have a problem with any of the 6 Batman live action movies(7 with Adam Wests which I like too), but then again I like Star Wars 1-6 and unlike most my favorite(of the originals) is ROTJESB(which is unheard of among die-hard fans)
I've seen that Jabba clip before and always with the preface that the human actor was just a stand in for an effects shot to be added later, Lucas never intended for Jabba to be depicted as human.
@Bill-Lee: What's really strange is that when Marvel did their adaptation they had no clue what Jabba would look like, so they just used a face off one of the background monsters.
@Bill-Lee: Not only were they red, they were fencing swords, complete with hilts. To the artist's credit, he was working off a few stills rather than a finished movie.
The deleted scene from RotS made me sick. They just saw a colleague of theirs get brutally murdered in front of their eyes and Lucas has them immediately break into cheap visual jokes.
Why does Ten Forward look so small in that Nemesis clip? I realize that the Enterprise E was smaller in terms of crew compliment than D, but that looked no bigger than the retrofitted galley on Voyager.
@EdificeComplex:
It looked the same size because it was the same set, and it wasn't Ten Forward, it was just an officer's lounge. Ten Forward was the size it was because it served three times as many people, on a much larger ship.

I always thought it was a nice touch showing the years of partnership and all.
It is admittedly though one of those things (like much of the PT) that was better conceived then executed.
