Massive amounts of time (and money) were invested in preserving the tv version of Superman. I know because I contributed to that project.

Asking if someone if they could record a broadcast of an alternate version is not unreasonable. It's no different than asking if someone has a rare Laserdisc or VHS. People who've been around this site for more than a few months understand this.

 

I will try my best not to reply again because I don't think it's worth it, but I  can't believe you're comparing the International Expanded Cut of Superman to the Censored version of Cliffhanger.

For this instance, I don't think that comparison works or holds water and it's somewhat not fair because when you wrote the quoted post I had already stated, "Edit:

And just so no one jumps down my throat, some TV versions need to be preserved, Needful Things for example, but I'm not convinced this one is worth preserving, etc..."

Fortunately, the edits preserve time/date stamps and everyone can see this. I already admitted some TV cuts are worth preserving, I just don't think this one is such an example. I just don't understand people's mee too mentality.
