Super emergency ! I just found out that measure of a man had an extended cut that was released a couple years ago! Where do I find it?

So basically I just found out last night that measure of a man had a re-release that was an hour long which is supposedly substantially better I had not become aware that there were extended versions of the episodes turns out that there were tons of deleted scenes because the TV format that required the episodes to be 45 minutes with 15 minutes of commercials meaning that there are approximately 15 minutes to half an hour of deleted scenes that are on the reels for almost every episode.

Apparently Paramount decided to revamp measure of a Man which got an excellent review in its re-release but I have not been able to find a place to stream or let's be honest torrent.

Does anybody know where I can find the re-released version I really want to see the hour-long version that is supposed to be very good.

Apparently it gets much deeper into rikers struggle with his legal role.

What really interests me is the fact that we could potentially have like almost hour long versions of each episode and we could probably recut Best of both worlds into a 2 hour or maybe even longer movie with a remaster.

Apparently it was extremely expensive to rebuild measure of a Man and Paramount canceled all other reassemblies.

But technology is much more sophisticated than when they were first doing this in 2014 I believe and I really think there's a case to be made for doing this to the whole Star Trek franchise.

Can you imagine going through every episode going through all the deleted scenes that are in Paramount vault and actually rebuilding every episode as almost a standalone movie.

It's a real shame this hasn't been done. I will readily admit I think this is a poorly handled franchise they are sitting on a gold mine and every fan would go crazy for this.

Update update update I found it online! Thank you everybody for helping me! You can watch it it's 57 minutes long almost an extra 13 minutes:

Back to the Future... The Complete Trilogy at the Drive-In!

On Saturday night I had the privilege of seeing the entire trilogy back-to-back-to-back on 35 MM film at the Mahoning Drive-In in Lehighton, Pennsylvania. This is a drive-in committed to showing classics and cult favorites on film and making an event out of it, and they delivered on that for Back to the Future in spades. They had a DeLorean Time Machine, a DJ playing themed music, vintage trailers that coordinate with some of their upcoming events, a raffle with BTTF goodies, and themed snacks and merchandise, including a beautiful specially designed poster. The 35 MM prints dated back to the 1980s and looked fantastic. Some light rain kicked in during Part II but never turned heavy enough to be an issue. The drive-in itself was super cool with a concession stand that also sells VHS, DVD, and vinyl, and even has a cat adoption program! A super fun evening with my favorite movies! If you're in and around Eastern Pennsylvania I can't recommend this drive-in theater enough.

What's up with this E.T. plaque?

A recent Instagram post reminded me of this random little thing that's nagged at me ever since I saw it... why is there this little plaque commemorating the E.T. film in a random spot on the ground near the entrance to Panda Express on the Lower Lot? I would understand if there were a bunch of these plaques scattered around the outside of the restaurant there as a form of placemaking... but there aren't, right? The way it's designed suggests it's part of a set, like the film reel could be swapped out for a TV set on a plaque for a TV show or something. Also adding to the randomness is how close this is to where the E.T. Adventure used to be but is also very obviously not placed where you would expect it to be if that's what it was intended to commemorate, as well as explicitly calling out the film and not the ride. I couldn't find anything from some light Googling, so does anyone here have any kind of an idea? I know this is around where the Universal Experience used to be, could it have something to do with that?
