LEGEND: U.S. TELEVISION CUT
Project Info
Like my recent Explorers: Definitive Cut release, Legend: The U.S. TV Cut is another personal passion project that has a special place in my heart. Ridley Scott's 1985 fantasy film, Legend, was another film I was introduced to in my childhood by my father. I have very fond memories associated with this film, and they have followed me into my late twenties -- and compelled me to do this project.
Being a fan of Legend since I was a kid, I naturally learned of the various cuts of the film that have existed over years and acquired each cut when I could. There was one cut that had eluded me for years: The U.S. Television Cut. By the time I had started hunting for it Legend wasn't playing on TV much anymore, and I couldn't find any trace of it online to watch. My interest in creating this project would be ignited when I came across a site dedicated to the film and saw various mention the TV Cut; the site even had a complete breakdown of the TV Cut written up! After giving a thorough readthrough of the breakdown, I had in my mind that I was going to recreate this cut to the best of my ability.
Video: Legend: U.S. TV Cut is reconstructed using the recently restored U.S. Theatrical Cut and Director's Cut of Legend found in the Arrow Video Limited Edition blu-ray set. The reconstruction is presented in the film's original 2.35:1 aspect ratio instead of the 1.33:1 aspect ratio of the original TV Cut. Legend: The U.S. TV Cut clocks in at 95 mins.
Audio:
LPCM: English 2.0 (Mixed down from the new LPCM 5.1 track for this release)
LPCM: English 5.1 (Sourced from the U.S. Theatrical Cut and Director's Cut DTS HD-MA 5.1 tracks out of the Arrow Video LE BD release)
DD+: English 2.0 (Converted and mixed down from LPCM 5.1 track)
DD+: English 5.1 (Converted from the LPCM 5.1 track)
Note: The English LPCM 2.0 track is the default audio track for this, which is the same for the Arrow Video LE release. This is done not only to emulate Arrow's release but to reflect both the theatrical and television releases.

EXPLORERS: DEFINITIVE CUT
Project Info
Explorers: Definitive Cut is a personal project that has been dwelling within my heart for many years. I first fell in love with Explorers as a young boy, introduced to it by my father via VHS in the end 90s'. It quickly became one of my favorite movies as a kid and stuck with me throughout the years. After that VHS were tossed away thanks to the rise of DVD, the 2004 Paramount Widescreen Collection DVD came into my life before being replaced by the Warner Archive Collection DVD almost a decade later. I would hold onto that Warner Archive DVD like a great treasure until this year when Shout! Factory announced that they had acquired the rights to release the film on blu-ray.
I was more than excited when I realized that this would be the first time Explorers would be available in HD in the US. I grew even more excited when I found out that the Theatrical Cut, which I had never seen due to Joe Dante creating a shorter cut for home video, was going to be included in the new release. I preordered the blu-ray a month in advance, and couldn't wait to get it. It was Christmas in May when the blu-ray came to me a week before street release. I watched both cuts back-to-back that day, and it reaffirmed why I love the film so much. It would be a month later when I would complete this Definitive Cut, after going back and forth between either or not I really needed to do this.
I sat on this cut for months, enjoying it for myself before realizing that maybe there were people like me who wanted a complete experience of the film and not have to choose between either cut. And that is why I am sharing this cut with you all now. Please enjoy.
Video: The Classroom Daydream Sequence from the end of the Home Video Cut has been seamlessly reintegrated into the Theatrical Cut to present a more complete version. Explorers: Definitive Cut clocks in at 110 minutes, making it 1 minute longer than the Theatrical Cut and 4 minutes longer than the Home Video Cut. Additional color grading was done to give this cut an HDR look and feel. Both cuts were sourced from the Shout! Factory Shout Select blu-ray release.
Audio:
LPCM: English 5.1 (Sourced from the DTS HD-MA 5.1 audio from both cuts)
LPCM: English 2.0 (Mixed down from the 5.1 track)
Dolby Digital+: English 5.1 (Converted from the LPCM 5.1 track)
Dolby Digital+: English 2.0 (Mixed down from the DD+ 5.1 track)

English 5.1 DTS - Appeared on both Japanese DVDs and the South Korean DVD
Many thanks

When their ship crash-lands on a remote planet,
the marooned passengers soon learn that escaped convict Riddick isn't the only thing they have to fear.
Deadly creatures lurk in the shadows, waiting to attack in the dark,
and the planet is rapidly plunging into the utter blackness of a total eclipse.
With the body count rising, the doomed survivors are forced to turn to Riddick
with his eerie eyes to guide them through the darkness to safety.
With time running out, there's only one rule: Stay in the light.

The Unrated Director´s Cut is 220 sec. longer than the Theatrical Cut (R-rated).
17:39 min. - 18:05 min.
Imam longer explains Fry the religious rites and the march to New Mecca and then shows her his weapon.
length: DC 26 sec. longer.
22:18 min. - 22:23 min.
Shazza looks at the rocks.
length: DC 5 sec. longer.
31:47 min. - 32:25 min.
Fry and Johns have different opinions about Riddick. For Johns, Riddick definitely is the killer who messes around with the group. Fry however wants to pursue his hints and examine the burrow more closely. Here you notice for the first time that Johns is actually an arrogant asshole.
length: DC 38 sec. longer.
39:25 min. - 40:24 min.
The group is worried about the condition of the shuttle. Riddick ironically adds that it would be enough to outstretch the thumb to get off this planet and travel on hitchhiking. To avoid more tensions within the group Johns gives Riddick instructions so he has something to do. After that you see Jack playing with found toys and tools.
length: DC 59 sec. longer.
47:13 min. - 47:48 min.
Conversation between Riddick and Shazza. Shazza gives Riddick a respirator. With that, she wants to apologize to Riddick for the accusations regarding Zeke´s death.
length: DC 35 sec. longer.
48:14 min. - 48:28 min.
In the Theatrical Cut a shot of Riddick, in the DC a scene where he puts on the respirator.
length: 14 sec., DC 12 sec. longer.
55:10 min. - 55:55 min.
Fry doubts if Johns is the proper leader for the group. We get to know that Johns was shot by Riddick and that the bullet still is in his body. That is why he needs the morphine. In the Theatrical Version he is just a junkie.
length: DC 45 sec. longer.
