== [[Plot Hole]] Fixing Deleted Scenes ==
* The
** Similarly, there's a deleted scene just before the one where young Kirk steals the car: the teenager he passes on the road is his older brother George, and he steals the car and takes it on a joyride because its owner had just kicked George out of the house.
* A deleted scene in ''[[Star Wars]] Episode I: [[The Phantom Menace]]'' reveals why Obi-Wan didn't just use his own lightsaber to destroy the droids chasing him in the swamp. (Evidently, you don't want to drop a lightsaber in swamp water if you can help it.)
** Another deleted scene shows Anakin fighting a young Rodian (Wald? Greedo?) which explains why Qui-Gon was treating his wounds in the next scene.
* A scene cut from the initial airing of ''[[Turtles Forever]]'' had Karai explaining {{spoiler|how she found Ch'rell and the Technodome}}
* The extended version of ''[[Independence Day]]'' features a scene explaining how they managed to upload a virus onto the alien mothership by using a laptop. Apparently, the Earth technology is compatible with the ones Aliens have due to it being reverse-engineered from the Roswell UFO (same as with Megatron from live-action ''Transformers'').
* A [http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lntcg3epiJo deleted scene from late in season four] of ''[[Oz]]'' shows Chris Keller moving back into Tobias Beecher's cell, thereby explaining why he is suddenly there again in a later episode.
Line 49:
** A deleted scene from ''Deathly Hallows, Part 2'' explains why Luna is at Hogwarts when the Trio gets there, despite them having apparently left her at Shell Cottage earlier in the film.
* A deleted scene in ''[[Die Hard]] 2'' showed that the Mooks that McClane takes out on the Skywalk at Dulles acquired their disguises by killing two painters and stealing their van and uniforms.
* The 2007 [[Live Action Adaptation]]
* The reason Harry's butler waited until ''[[Spider-Man (film)|Spider-Man 3]]'' to explain how he knew Norman's death was an accident was because a deleted scene showed that he was a hallucination.
* ''[[Monkeybone]]'' has tons of Deleted Scenes thanks to [[Executive Meddling]]. No major plot points, but a lot of little things are suddenly explained after seeing them.
* In ''[[Legend]]'' there was an extended opening sequence involving the goblins trying and failing to capture the unicorns. When they report back to [[Big Bad|Big D]], Blunder interrupts to brag about his role in the attempt and is punished for speaking out of turn by having his left hand turned into a chicken foot by Darkness, explaining why he has that for the rest of the movie. Without this scene, his chicken-foot hand goes unaddressed
* ''[[The Lion King]]'' had Nala being near Timon and Pumbaa's Oasis for no discernable reason (which resulted in her nearly killing Pumbaa before re-encountering Simba). A deleted scene (and deleted song, called "The Madness of King Scar") revealed that the reason she was there was because Scar had exiled her from the Pridelands due to her refusing Scar's proposal to have her become his queen (with the implication that he attempted to rape her). The scene was retained in the musical, however.
* In ''[[Titanic]]'' the last time you see Lovejoy, he is limping and his face is bleeding. A deleted scene has Cal send Lovejoy after Rose and Jack after he realizes the Heart of the Ocean is with Rose and Jack beats Lovejoy in a fight.
Line 67:
* The various ''[[Superman (film)|Superman]]'' films have had additional scenes added. To wit: the theatrical version of the 1978 Superman runs just over two hours, the extended edition runs almost half-an-hour longer, while the TV version runs almost ''three hours'' (with extra scenes like the resolution of the Kryptonian Executioner subplot, Luthor playing the piano multiple times and Lois being revealed as the young girl who saw Clark run past her to catch the train as a young boy).
* ''[[Top Secret]]'' has a few deleted scenes which sometimes appear in television broadcasts.
* The broadcast premiere of ''[[Who Framed Roger Rabbit?]]'' included a scene cut from the theatrical
** [[Trailers Always Lie|One of the trailers showed a bit of that scene too.]]
* The original (1978) version of ''[[Halloween (film)|Halloween]]'' got some additional scenes for its network airing. [[John Carpenter]] shot these during the production of ''Halloween II'' in 1981.
