The emphasis on Bud and Lindsey is far more important to me than aliens-teach-us-about-peace. Every third Twilight Zone and Star Trek did that. So, I love all the extras (and the shot of Coffey slowly going nuts next to the garfield doll in the extended cut is awesome) but for a future disc mainly I'd just like for that regular version to be included. (although my choice for a 3rd Lucas-y revisionist version would be the theatrical cut, plus that Coffey shot and a more convincing overhead view of the full daylight Ark)
