Lemon Popsicle 5 - Baby Love
Comparison between the cut British DVD and the German DVD reissue.
British DVD: 77:35 min without end credits (80:00 with credits)
German DVD reissue: 78:53 min w/o credits (81:14 w credits)
4 cuts with a total length of 68,7 seconds
(Remaining time difference due to different credits)
The DVD box set containing parts 1-7 of the well-known Lemon Popsicle series features only cut versions of the movies (except part three). These cuts might just be mastering mistakes but are several seconds long.
In the fifth part more than a minute is missing in the British version. Since none of them can be explained by any censorship it is likely that these scenes were only available in a bad quality and have been cut out because of that. Especially the long cut at the end is annoying because the boys suddenly and without any explanation sit at the dentist's.
Running time designations are formatted like this:
British DVD / German DVD

00:00-01:28 / 00:00-01:38

Before the boys are at the dentist's, the following scene is missing:
The boys cross the street and sit in the waiting room afterwards. Johnny is being askes several times if everything was alright. He answers that the assistant was very hot. Benny wants to know whether they would really be alone and Johnny answers that she would do her special treatment during the lunch break. He also tells them that the dentist was out for lunch. When Viktor asks another time he is being hit by Johnny again. Johnny tells something about Steve, who had convulsions in his eye and had his trousers pulled down before he knew what happened.

Versus
Theatrical version - Ultimate Edition
While the German version was heavily cut for a r-rating, director Kitamura threw a new extended version on the market which had an additional runtime of 10 minutes. All the fights in this flick have been re-shoot, some colorfilters have been fixed and diverse takes have been optimized by CGI. In addition the annoying synthesizer music has been changed with new music.

Scary Movie 4
PG-13 - Unrated
“Scary Movie 4“ is another comedy that was released as an unrated version after its theatrical release. The almost 6 minutes longer cut shows especially more sex-related material, which was probably considered too explosive for the PG-13 rating of the theatrical cut. In the US both the theatrical and the unrated version were released on DVD. Is the unrated material worth the purchase?

Replacement Killers, The
Theatrical Version - Unrated Extended Cut
About 9 years, after the movie has been shown in German cinemas, the "Extended Cut" was released besides the already existing and uncut "Cinema-version". The "Extended Cut" gives the protagonists more depth but almost no new action sequences.
A short time after the RC-1 release, this version came to Germany as a RC-2 DVD!
