Some of you may be familiar with this, Richard Kelly's second film. It had a very small theatrical run in the US in 2007 to very unfavorable reviews. This is an earlier version of the film that premiered at the Cannes Film Festival in 2006. I believe it was booed. Anyway, it's about 15mins longer and is different in a lot of ways.

WARNING! SPOILERS BELOW!

* Opens the same as theatrical cut, with home video in Abilene, except with music ('Water Pistol' by Moby) and runs longer. Video is also shown in its original aspect ratio, instead of cropped for 2.35:1.
* Doomsday Scenario Interface is not present in the original cut, it was added to provide background information present in the graphic novels. Instead we have narration from Pilot Abilene explaining the present situation and Treer Corporation.
* The meeting between the Baron and Hideo Takehashi takes place much earlier in the film, Pilot explains the Baron dislikes Takehashi.
* The character of General Teena MacArthur is more fleshed out in original cut, she mainly communicates with General Simon Theory and the Baron.
* Many scenes with dialog between main characters have been extended i.e. scenes with Boxer & Roland, Krysta & Cyndi, Boxer & Starla, Cyndi & Vaughn Smallhouse etc.
* Pilot explains that Bart Bookman is an 'angry man' with a willingness to die.
* Some events that take place are better explained in original cut e.g. Boxer ringing Fortunio before meeting him, Serpentine explaining her actions at the end.
* Features additional effects of the blimp not in theatrical version.
* Features music by Moby not present in theatrical version i.e. 'Ceanograph' is heard in scene giving information on the rift, 'Hotel Intro' is heard as characters visit different sections on the blimp.
