Comparison:

  • Theatrical Version
  • Unrated
Release: Dec 19, 2010 - Author: Mike Lowrey - Translator: Victor - external link: IMDB
17 changes, including
11 extended scenes
5 scenes with alternative footage
1 additional scene


The Unrated runs 631,24 Sec. / approx. 10 minutes 32 Sec. longer than the Theatrical Version.




With a budget of 100 Million dollars, this comedy starring Will Ferrell and Mark Wahlberg didn't run too bad (about 168 Million dollars at the box office). To increase the profit, a longer Unrated Version was produced that gives the PG-13 movie a solid R vibe. Whether or not all the changes benefit the movie that already seems a bit long is a matter of personal taste.


Comparison between the Theatrical Version (PG-13) and the Unrated Version (both on the US-DVD from Columbia Pictures).

Sheila: "You know, Terry, it was just this primal connection. After those three days of non-verbal communication and a whole lot of lovin', I had to go to a specialist to to get my hips re-aligned."

Additional scene

Artist: "Yes, we don't put drinks on it."
Terry: "500.000?!"
Artist: "He can read. Congratulations."
Terry: "What?"
Artist: "I'm sorry, are you in the right place or not?"

Francine: "Terry. What are you doing here?"
Terry: "I wanna be with you."
Francine: "No, Terry, that's not gonna happen."
Terry: "You know where you belong. On top of me in the Poconos. Instead, you're here, selling dirty coffee tables? I mean, look at this, this is nonsense."
Francine: "Terry, this is an original Haverfield-Jameson. The chaos of the coffee table? It represents our fractured egos."
Terry: "You think I don't know about this artsy-fartsy crap? This coffee table isn't the ego, it represents our shattered sense of community in the face of capitalist-driven isolation. Looks like the work of Cindy Sherman or Frank Stella."
Francine: "How did you know that, Terry?"
Terry: "I took some classes at RISD so I could make fun of these lame artsy douches in my neighborhood."
Francine: "Terry, lower your voice!"
Terry: "I don't have to lower my voice--"
Francine's Boss: "Is this man bothering you, Francine?"
Terry: "Are you actually having sex with this creep?!"
Francine: "Terry...he's gay, okay? He's even wearing a T-shirt that says 'I'm gay.' Alright, and also, he's my boss.''"
Terry: "Happy for you, man. Good. Can you get out of here now? I'm talking to my lady."
Francine: "Mr. Reger, everything is fine. Terry is actually leaving now."
Francine's Boss: "Nice toot, sailor. Jesus."
Francine: "Terry, what are you doing? Look, I waited three years for you to be more than a cop, okay?"
Terry: "Just give me one more year."
Francine: "Terry, you don't get another year. I'm done."
Terry: "Fine." (Terry takes the fork off the coffee table and puts it somewhere else, causing people around him to scream in panic.)
Francine: "Terry, don't touch that! Terry!"
Terry: "I don't need this shit! I don't need you! And when you call me, I'm not coming back!"
Francine's Boss: "Oh boy! Over the top!" (They start to judge his acting.)
Artist: "How outré!"
Terry: "I'll burn this bitch down to the ground!"
Artist: "Uhh, fresh, energetic!"
Francine's Boss: "Oh, I love his rawness!"
Terry: "Stop critiquing me, okay?! I'm a human being, I am not a piece of art!"
Artist: "Yes, you are."

Terry: "I'm a peacock flying into a rainbow!"
Artist: "Yes! Yes!!"

Allen: "Well, we're not participating in that. We have no interest."
Dirty Mike: "Let me rephrase it. We got a jar of old mustard, and we got a poodle and we're just gonna get in there and we're gonna put some D's in some A's."

Terry: "Derek Jeter?"
Jeter: "Yeah, it's me. You were set up that night you shot me, Terry."
Terry: "I told you!"
Jeter: "They knew by putting someone like you with a quick trigger finger next to that door where I do my pre-game walk, it'd end up bad. Bad for both of us. Now, I've been doing my own investigation on the banking industry, and I was close. I was real close. So I forgive you, Terry."
Terry: "I appreciate that, man. I'm sorry about what happened. I'm glad you're doing better."
Jeter: "The whole damn system is clogged up with dirty money. And the news doesn't say a word about it. 'Cause who owns them? The same corporations that own the government. Courts and the law is all we have left. So here's you guys' next case. Guy by the name of Carl Bachand, CEO of Killister Bank. He took three billions in TARP funds. He's crooked. He's real crooked. Take him down, but be careful. He's got Blackwater mercenaries 24/7."
Terry: "Thanks, Derek. Hey Derek! Wait! What if we need to get in touch with you, get some more information or some tickets or something? What just happened?"

Alternative footage
1:53:32: A joke is told after the credits. Allen is not amused and also interrupts Terry several times in the Unrated. Also, the joke is dirty in the Unrated.

Theatrical Version:
Terry: "That was you. You don't have a sense of humor."
Allen: "I do... I have a wonderful sense of humor. If you say something funny, I'll laugh."
Terry: "All right, I'm gonna tell you the best joke in the world. We'll see if you laugh."
Allen: "Please. I love jokes."
Terry: "All right. There was these two guys, all right, partners, best friends. Going moose hunting."
Allen: "Right."
Terry: "Looking around. Everywhere they look, there's no moose. The guy's like, "You know what? We gotta split up. You go this way, you go that way.""
Allen: "Right."
Terry: "Next thing you know, they lose sight of each other. All of a sudden, the guy hears some rumbling in the bushes."
Allen: "Sure."
Terry: "He starts heading over that way. Out comes his friend in his orange suit. He's like, "Don't shoot. I'm not a moose." And the guy readies his weapon, points it right at his face, and boom! Shoots the guy. So the guy runs over, he goes, "What are you doing? I told you I wasn't a moose." And the guy goes, "I thought you said you were a moose.""
Allen: "But he's not a moose."


Unrated:
Terry: "That was you. You don't have a sense of humor."
Allen: "I do... I have a wonderful sense of humor. If you say something funny, I'll laugh."
Terry: "All right, I'm gonna tell you a great joke."
Allen: "Please. I love jokes."
Terry: "All right. Little boy on his 13th birthday. It's time to get laid."
Allen: "Already feels inappropriate."
Terry: "So he goes to the lady at the whorehouse, he goes, "Miss, look, I know usually you want money, but I don't have any money and it's my birthday. Do you think I could have sex with you for this duck?"
Allen: "Was he a farmer?"
Terry: "No."
Allen: "That's probably a Health Code violation, bringing a duck into a place of prostitution."
Terry: "They weren't gonna have sex with the duck."
Allen: "No, I just mean Health Code violation to have the duck brought into a facility like that."
Terry: "So, anyway, she says, "Yes, I'll do it.". So he goes in there, gives it to her."
Allen: "He gives her what?"
Terry: "The high, hard one! She loves it. She goes, "You know what? If you do that again, I'll give you your duck back." It's like getting laid twice for free."
Allen: "So...I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. The duck is payment for sexual intercourse."
Terry: "Yes. Yes."
Allen: "Very good."
Terry: "He used the duck as payment, and now he's being paid back the duck. He goes, "Oh my God, this is the greatest birthday ever." He does it again. Now he's walking home, right? Walking..."
Allen: "So she was satisfied with duck. With a duck as currency..."
Terry: "Yes."
Allen: "...to her. Great. Good."
Terry: "So he's walking home, now he can't wait to get home to tell his father. Right? He's walking down the street with the duck, and all of a sudden, voom, truck comes by and runs over his duck."
Allen: "Kills the duck?"
Terry: "Killed the duck."
Allen: "So the duck is now dead."
Terry: "The duck is dead. The kid starts crying, truck driver stops, he's all upset, he didn't mean..."
Allen: "Of course he's crying! He's a 13-year-old boy who's just had sex, twice, and he watched his beloved duck die."
Terry: "Will you shut up and let me tell the story?"
Allen: "So far, I don't know how this is ever gonna be funny."
Terry: "The guy feels so bad about killing the duck, he gives him two dollars."
Allen: "And the kid's happy with the two bucks?"
Terry: "He's ecstatic! He got laid twice, and now he's got two dollars on top of it."
Allen: "Seems like a duck would be worth a lot more than two dollars."
Terry: "This was a while back. So he goes home, his dad goes, "What happened? What happened? Tell me! Tell me!" He goes, "Dad, I got a fuck for the duck, I got a duck for the fuck, and I got two bucks for a fucked-up duck!""
Allen: "So, it's like a limerick."
Terry: "You didn't think that was funny?"
Allen: "I thought it was entertaining at the end, sure, the way all the words were put together, but in terms of content? No."
