Dammit, I have to listen to Stereotomy now.

Well, let's see...Scott has released long versions of BHD, Gladiator...there is a long cut of 1492...Alien has the alternate cut, but that's just for fun...
Lucas and Scott operate very differently. Lucas wanted to change his movies, and he made the changes obvious. Scott decided to allow BR to be tweaked until it was what he finally wanted. As we know, many of the changes are very subtle, which is the idea.
Scott may ultimately not do as
much revising as Lucas, but he makes more IMPORTANT revisions than Lucas.
