“Why Should Fans Deserve to See These Scenes?”

Accessing deleted scenes provides fans deeper insight into the filmmakers' creative choices.​ Lots of people worked on those scenes that were cut entirely, trimmed, or reshot/re-edited before the final release and I think it’d be nice to release the unseen work released to the public so it’s in better use and not going to waste. Fans do wanna see all of it as well heavily.
