James Cameron's The Abyss (Abyss? ) was released in August, 1989, and the box office was disappointing, with a total box office of 43-47 million dollars and a budget of 90 million dollars. The length of the drama version 140 minutes. 1993 The special edition of CD has been added for a whole half hour (including the whole picture).

Abyss (1989)
The information of the abyss didn't spread much at that time, partly because this aspect of the film was seriously damaged by the plot editing.
From 1989 to 140 minutes in the cinema to the special edition of 17 1 minute on the CD of 1993, Abyss has won people's interest and reputation, although the finished product has changed a lot only because of the longer fragments. It was Cameron, not the studio, who chose the shorter version. There is no doubt that the version has a better rhythm and a more concentrated rhythm, and there are no experts who let foreigners convey anti-nuclear feelings through cable news clips.
However, the theme of the film is weakened in the drama version, and even if Cameron is ultimately in charge, it feels like hacking in the studio. Writing a story about underwater creatures standing up against nuclear weapons-because a man wrote to his wife to save mankind from the tsunami may be a tacky story, but it would be wrong if he didn't insist.
Exorcist (1973)
Now, we are facing this new version, which is about 12 minutes longer than the original version.
This is a great horror movie, and it has been edited and revised-which undoubtedly proves the rationality of the slogan "Never seen a version". No, neither do you.
After reading the new version and my original CD, I noticed that there are four differences between the 1973 version and the 2000 version. One may be useful, the other neutral, the third meaningless and the fourth disastrous.
The ending tone is perfect. The ending has been changed to touching the nose of the movie with cans and thumbs.
