I agree. The issue I have is the obviously lower quality of these scenes, both image-wise and sound-wise. Perhaps some music might help, but the image will be noticably lower in quality than the "normal" scenes.

Agreed. Some of the acting is awful -- my guess is they were planing on fixing this in looping.

I'm doing one. I utterly loathe the editing done to the extended version, however. Those voice overs are painful, and the use of music is dreadful -- it's like they had no clue about how to effectively use it. The pervasive use of music creates another problem -- the theatrical release has many scenes with no music or different music, and then you insert a "new" scene and suddenly the music changes!
