Redux or Theatrical cut?
I've only seen the redux but I've heard that the whole french scene ruins the pacing.
But I feel like skipping that scene would lose a lot of context. Also, what did they do with Cleans body in the theatrical version?

Redux feels more literary and I prefer it, but I'm not sure it's actually a better film
I
I prefer redux but theatrical cut is a tighter film.

redux has shit pacing but beyond that its pretty good
>tfw can only find torrents of the redux online

Context for what? The characters don't behave differently after that point, and the french have basically no impact on the plot, be it before or after their inclusion.
You could remove that sequence in it's entirety and the movie would play out the same.
Redux is Late Night for maximum magic

The only extra scene really worth it on the redux version is Kilgore's obsession with surfing and demanding one of the team to go surf, only to have them steal one of the surf boards when their boat arrives.

the French scene was eerie as fuck, IMO it adds a lot to the movie even if it was pretty jarring
The dvd I have has both versions but I almost always watch Redux.

theatrical and it's not even close. redux isn't bad necessarily, but it's long to a fault
watch the making of documentary
