  The power of final cut
A decade ago, final cut -- the right of a director to edit a film exactly as he pleases and have it released in theaters that way -- was almost mandatory for any filmmaker who wanted to prove that he had arrived.
Today, many directors say it is almost impossible to get final cut from a major studio, and if they are lucky enough to get it, it is a concession laced with provisos, often stipulating that the director's cut will stay in place only if test screenings prove highly successful.
Among producers, Scott Rudin had sole final cut on last year's "The Hours." Yet when director Stephen Daldry was asked recently about the final cut issue, it was so far from his thoughts that he initially thought the question referred to the computer program rather than the contractual matter.

 Pink Floyd: The Final Cut - PopMatters Music Review
One of the odd things about The Final Cut is that, while the psychedelic rock scene had direct ties to the anti-war movement of the late '60s, Pink Floyd's career up to The Wall was more concerned with both mental and interstellar travel, and hardly falls under the rubric of protest music.
With The Final Cut, Waters gave his father his own story, making him the reference point for the struggles of families who cope with the loss of husbands and fathers to war, while using his father's memory to rail against the pervasive jingoism of the early '80s.
Because The Final Cut doesn't end with a message of hope or reconciliation, it ends with the grim specter of a "father-daughter about to be wiped out by a nuclear blast" moment.

 SCI FI Wire | The News Service of the SCI FI Channel | SCIFI.COM
Warner Home Video will issue a new remastered director's cut of the classic SF movie Blade Runner in September now that it has cleared up rights issues, followed by a theatrical release of a version promised to be truly director Ridley Scott's final cut, Variety reported.
That version was replaced by the much better-received director's cut in 1992, but Scott has long been unhappy with it, complaining that he was rushed and unable to give it proper attention.
Scott started working on the final cut version in 2000, but that project was shelved by Warner soon after, apparently because the studio couldn't come to terms with Jerry Perenchio over rights issues.
