Hah, I had an answer all drafted up the other night, but my internet gave out before I could post it. But ChainsawAsh said pretty much all I had intended to anyway. It ended up on the cutting room floor for a reason, and it was not because of an unfinished special effect. It was excised, and the movie didn't suffer anything for its deletion. And, of course, older movies should not be modified to reflect changes in later movies.

That said, hello, and welcome to the boards. Hope you enjoy yourself!
