Ty, you know you're my brother by another mother, but please. There are precious few comedies in this world that are improved by deleted scenes. "Stripes" ain't one of them. That movie totally falls apart in the third reel as it is. You'd actually want to see more of that shite?
The only two DVDs in my admittedly small collection with alternate/deleted scenes worth watching more than once are "Blazing Saddles" (the Citizen Kane of alcoholic gunfighter movies) and "Waiting for Guffman." Parker Posey's dramatic audition is a thing to behold.
