I'd like to own this series, but what's the scoop with the Director's Cut
editions? LW4 has only had one DVD release, so that's cool... but what's
added to 1-3? Does the extra footage detract from or benefit the films? I
love 1 & 2 but the thought of unncessary footage wedged between their scenes
has made me hold off on these for a while.

It's not enought to worry about. LW1 has about 7 minutes additional
character development for Riggs concerning his dead wife. LW2 and LW3
have 3 and 2 minutes respectively--or is it 2 and 3 minutes
respectively? Whatever. LW1 is the only one where the additional footage
is even noticable.

The main attraction for me was the addition of the DTS tracks on these
three.
