10 Unreleased Cuts Of Movies That Are Probably Terrible

10. Star Wars: The Rise Of Skywalker - The Abrams Cut

The colossal disappointment of Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker not only left fans considering what could've been with Colin Trevorrow's original vision for the film, but also what better version of J.J. Abrams' movie remains locked away on a Disney server somewhere.

Since the film's release, numerous cut scenes have been discussed by the cast and crew, including sequences where Kylo Ren (Adam Driver) tortures Chewbacca (Joonas Suotamo), Finn (John Boyega) uses the force, and Anakin Skywalker (Hayden Christensen) even allegedly makes a cameo.

While Abrams himself hasn't ever confirmed the existence of a so-called Abrams Cut, there is in the very least an assembly cut of all the shot footage which would contain all of the aforementioned scenes and more.

The thing is, while these scenes sound interesting in isolation, would adding them really make The Rise of Skywalker a fundamentally better movie on a story level?

Considering the theatrical cut is already a turgid, bloated 142-minute mess, it's difficult to believe that elongating the runtime, even with admittedly attention-grabbing scenes, will do anything but make it even more of a slog to sit through.

It'd be fun to watch these cut scenes as supplementary footage on Disney+, but the one thing this movie doesn't need? More movie.
