Funniest movie edit for tv
i was watching casino on the bravo network a few weeks ago. a typical conversation that had joe pesci in it went something like
"i hate you stupid (brief pause) idiot, you sound like a freaking moron you fat friend." the added words even sound like pesci talking in a normal voice, instead of him yelling them.
or there's always
"Yippie ky yay mister falcon"
Ezekiel 25:17. The path of the righteous man is beset on all sides by the inequities of the selfish and the tyranny of evil men. Blessed is he who, in the name of charity and good will, shepherds the weak through the valley of the darkness. For he is truly his brother's keeper and the finder of lost children. And I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger those who attempt to poison and destroy my brothers. And you will know I am the Lord when I lay my vengeance upon you

For quite a long time, I only knew the first two Die Hard films from TV screenings, where they just cut the line short, so I always just thought the line was "Yippie-Ki-Yay". It wasn't until I saw Die Hard With A Vengeance that I relaised there was more to the line.

smokey and the bandit has bad editing.
one line by paul williams orignally is i'd like to kick his ass just once. the edited line is i'd like to kick his ego just once.
how dumb?

Mister Falcon is still by far my favorite. It's genius-level editing.

The bean scene in Blazing Saddles is pretty funny without hearing any of the "sound".

One of my favorites is the tv edit of Lost Boys. They replace a line "holy shit" with "holy . . . shorts" and shorts does not in any way sound like it was original.

There was a lot of "witchin'!" instead of "bitchin'!" in the Fast Times TV version.
The edit of the Jerk had Steve Martin say, "P.S. Is grandma still burping?" instead of "farting."

You aren't kidding about the DUMB editing on Smokey and the Bandit, Ryan! Oh, man, some of the voice overs in the TV version I heard had me just about in tears, laughing. Especially since the "new and improved" words or lines did not even sound like the original actors giving the lines, and it was obvious what they were saying, by reading the actor's lips. Plus, I am a huge fan of that movie, and I knew the dialog they had to blip for TV.
"Would a cop taking a WALK on the side of the road interest you?"
"Do the letters TAKE OFF mean anything to you?"
"You are not the product of my GENES"
It has been a long time since I've seen this one on regular commercial TV [thank God for my DVD!!] and those are just the highlights of what I remember of the edited lines.

The most amazing change I've seen on TV (in a bad way) is in Robocop: In the theatrical version, Clarence Bodicker runs over Emil, the disolving guy with a truck, making him explode, but on TV, he simply avoids him!
