are cut scenes really a big deal to people? plenty of movies will use an outtake or cut scene in a trailer. is this just an issue because of how bad FF was and people are justing using it as an example of the shite storm production was?

i dont think ive seen any other movie panned for not using a scene in the trailer.

Usually if you see a scene in a trailer that gets dumped its a random bit of dialogue or an actor's reaction to something. It's almost always something completely inconsequential like Paul Rudd making a crack about the name Ant Man.

In this case what was removed was an action scene that was heavily used in promotional material to sell the movie. Dropping a random joke is no big deal. Marketing your movie as a comic book action flick and then removing the major set piece you are using to advertise the film is a terrible business move.

It's probably part of the reason the Cinemascore is so bad. People were sold one thing and got something completely different so they were upset.

It's kind of like how a lot of people got pissed when they went to Drive and found out it was not an action flick like many of the previews made it appear to be.
