It was on my list because of the soundtrack, so when I didn’t hear the iconic track at all during the movie I looked it up.
Turns out that there is a re-scored version with a completely different soundtrack, and that was the version we got…

. Featuring an exclusive new soundtrack curated by Zane Lowe.
I will be watching this movie again next weekend, with the proper soundtrack
I am not sure if this counts but my mom put on Alien for me on Hulu, and it had some weird cuts in it. Turns out I had Hulu w/ Live TV so it was probably a cable edit of the film.
I ended up giving it an 8/10 but I bet I would have rated it higher if the cuts weren’t so strange. I’ll need to buy it on 4K and watch it properly at some point.
Watched the boys season 2?
Title
Where Kimiko meets her brother
Having a full conversation in thier language and no subtitles. “Ok. We are not meant to know they are saying because mystery/suspence”. Untill they started crying. “Ok. Lets go back now…”
Me and my friend watched the same movie remotely. They were watching “into the wild”, I was watching “No county for old men”. I understood I was on the wrong one when they commented about the great soundtrack, since the second one has no music ;D definitely after thee first quarter, probably after half. By chance they were talking about the van in the scene where there’s a van smuggling drugs so I did not notice
Watched „Children of men“ expecting a good movie.
Turns out it’s some religious hate bs story.
Was really disappointed because the quality of the actors and the whole technical setup made the impression of a „could be good“-movie
I accidentally watched A Quiet Place with the sound off. It wasn’t until the waterfall scene about 45m in that I realized something was wrong.
Yup. Before Drive was officially released there was a pirated “screener” copy online with a different, and in my opinion better, soundtrack. It enhanced the movie in a more effective way than what we got in the official release. Especially the elevator scene.
Watched the movie again when it officially came out and went “wait a minute, this isn’t right”.
Not even sure if the screener copy is still available anywhere.
I watched the movie Hush, a horror movie about a deaf woman, on mute without knowing until after it was over. I thought it was a really creative artistic choice
I had something similar with a download of Eraserhead. The audio was corrupted, the best way I could describe it is running water with a ton of reverb slightly chopped. I thought it was an interesting choice and the ambience definitely matched the black and white industrial atmosphere. 30 minutes in, I realized it was a bad copy when someone finally spoke.
I had a similar thing happen to me with Dark City. It took me 30 minutes to realize that the contrast on my TV was turned all the way down and that in fact, you were supposed to see something that wasn’t just really, really dark.
Oh man I can’t stop laughing🤣🤣🤣
That’s one of my favorite horror flicks. Release the mute cut!
How is no one mentioning why there are two versions of a movie only differing in soundtrack…? Seems bizarre to me
A lot of TV shows had their music replaced when they went to streaming because of song licensing crap, so it wasn’t super surprising that it happened to a movie too.
Scrubs was absolutely ruined because of this.
The time I spent putting the broadcast audio onto the streaming/dvd/Blu-ray releases to make them watchable was significant.
NBC and owners of scrubs were the worst for it. Scrubs had an iconic soundtrack that picked songs for the exact mood of the story, but then licenses expired and they just chose cheaper songs. I don’t care how much it costs, when “I will try to fix you” comes on I immediately start tearing up.
Edit: Found this - https://www.reddit.com/r/Scrubs/comments/2lmf7h/ive_made_a_list_of_dvdnetflix_song_differences/
So many in there that are obvious just cheap replacements. This one made me legit angry:
- My Ocardial Infarction (S4E13) - end scene; JD takes a deep breath as per Elliot’s advice, and handles trainwreck patient very well
- DVD song: “All Kinds of Time” by Fountains of Wayne
- Netflix song: Unknown instrumental
This is why I have it pirated, as you say the soundtrack is a huge part of that show, just rewatched it again recently and I don’t even want to know what the streaming version is like.
„American Girl“ when Elliot hooked up with JD was substituted by some royalty free salsa music. Just to give you a taste of it.
Wow, That is one of the biggest insults to the show I can think of
bruh

It would absolutely be surprising if you’ve never heard of that, which I hadn’t.
Video game re-releases too!
I confused Arrival with Annihilation. Both are good movies but I was wondering why I didn’t see any linguists
I watched the first half of “Nightcrawler” before I questioned why Jake Gyllenhaal didn’t have a German accent and the X-Men where nowhere in sight.
You should go ahead and watch the second half. It’s a good movie.
what’s the point if he can’t teleport through a hell dimension
Ah, the joy of sitting through about 45 minutes of 28 Days, before realising I’d downloaded the wrong movie when the zombies failed to show up.
I spent longer than I care to admit waiting for David Bowie to show up in Pan’s Labyrinth, does that count?
I’m waiting for David to show up in most media I watch. He tends to refuse, though.

I don’t think I have, but someone has to have watched a different Spiderman than they intended.
I watched 90% of a movie with “narration” turned on, and thought that “this movie is really fucking annoying. Yes, I see that the actor just did that, you don’t need to tell me.”
I never thought it happened to anyone else! Happened to me in Montreal few years ago.
Went to the Bell centre to watch the Habs, get drunk, and then back at the hotel, Apollo 13 was on tv. Classic Tom hanks movie so I had to watch the Whole thing.
It had narration mode turned on…. In French. The most confusing movie I’ve ever watched. And I’ve seen Apollo 13 a dozen times.
Unless you’re a baker, you should watch it one more time.
I watched “San Andreas Quake: Magnitude 10”, waited for a long time wondering where is The Rock before I understood I The Asylum tricked me. Later, I saw the real movie but it was less fun than the mockbuster.
