I know there's fans of this movie on the forum; long thought lost forever, additional shot footage was found in the personal archives of John Hughes. More at the link below:

There's a good overview on YouTube that discusses the lost footage; was made long before the above was announced:

The best Thanksgiving movie ever made IMO. Strangely it usually gets aired during the Christmas season.

I'm going to ask a stupid question but is it edited into the movie or just something they show after the original movie has played, extras?

Only the guys at Paramount know at this point. I doubt it will be integrated into the film itself, but will likely only be included as extra footage on a bonus disc. Within a week after it's released, though, we'll likely get a supercut on YouTube or Vimeo where someone who loves the film does a splice-in of the new scenes.

(It's really too bad that this couldn't have happened while John Hughes was still with us, and he would get to supervise such a project.)

If you're not a fan of foul language watch the TV version.

Taking the language out will change the impact and humor of the film.

There just wasn't much that I found funny in the movie.

It felt agonizingly long, as was unable to sustain a disbelief-enjoyment bubble.

For me, it tried to hard to be funny, and was cloying.

One viewing was more than enough.

I am that Masked Man.

All you can do, is all you can do.

There’s trouble — it's time to play the sound of my people.

Your boos mean nothing to me, I've seen what you cheer for.

Insisting on your rights without acknowledging your responsibilities isn’t freedom, it’s adolescence.

I've been to the edge of the map, and there be monsters.

We are a government of laws, not men.

Everybody counts or nobody counts.

When a good man is hurt,
all who would be called good
must suffer with him.

You and I have memories longer than the road that stretches out ahead.

There is no safety for honest men except
by believing all possible evil of evil men.

We don’t do focus groups. They just ensure that you don’t offend anyone, and produce bland inoffensive products. —Sir Jonathan Ive

An armed society is a polite society.
And hope is a lousy defense.

You make me pull, I'll put you down.

I *love* SIGs. It's Glocks I hate.
