    I know that there's a thread for this, but I figured the news would get buried and since it's so popular here I figured it deserved it's own thread.

    Joss Whedon’s Three-Hour THE AVENGERS: DIRECTOR’S CUT Coming To Cinemas In August??


    Could the nation’s cinemas be getting a 35-minute-longer “director’s cut” of Joss Whedon’s “Marvel’s The Avengers” this August?

    Such a cut is already rumored for a forthcoming Blu-ray release.

    Both ComicBook.com and SuperHeroAuthority have a source who says Disney could make it happen ahead of the movie’s expected Blu-ray release this fall.

    A three-hour version of the superhero epic might find its way to the big screen in an effort to make “Avengers” the all-time domestic box office champ.

    Very smart of them. Lots of people would see it again just for the extra stuff.

    Honestly, I'd RATHER see this DC in the theater. Action movies just don't measure up unless you have a real home theater.

    As badass as it was in theaters in the number of times I've seen it, I'd probably do this on dvd.

    Is the director's cut the one where they have the director commentary throughout the movie?

    It's an edit that the director feels better suits the movie. Usually it's longer with scenes that they had to cut due to time constraints/studio interference.

    Director Commentary is something you can usually toggle on and off on the DVD.

    If it's rated R and involves Black Widow and soapy sponge baths (no dudes, please!), I'm there. THAT would be character development!
