It was on my list because of the soundtrack, so when I didn’t hear the iconic track at all during the movie I looked it up.

Turns out that there is a re-scored version with a completely different soundtrack, and that was the version we got…

. Featuring an exclusive new soundtrack curated by Zane Lowe.

I will be watching this movie again next weekend, with the proper soundtrack

    How is no one mentioning why there are two versions of a movie only differing in soundtrack…? Seems bizarre to me

      A lot of TV shows had their music replaced when they went to streaming because of song licensing crap, so it wasn’t super surprising that it happened to a movie too.

        NBC and owners of scrubs were the worst for it. Scrubs had an iconic soundtrack that picked songs for the exact mood of the story, but then licenses expired and they just chose cheaper songs. I don’t care how much it costs, when “I will try to fix you” comes on I immediately start tearing up.

        Edit: Found this - https://www.reddit.com/r/Scrubs/comments/2lmf7h/ive_made_a_list_of_dvdnetflix_song_differences/

        So many in there that are obvious just cheap replacements. This one made me legit angry:

        • My Ocardial Infarction (S4E13) - end scene; JD takes a deep breath as per Elliot’s advice, and handles trainwreck patient very well
          • DVD song: “All Kinds of Time” by Fountains of Wayne
          • Netflix song: Unknown instrumental

          This is why I have it pirated, as you say the soundtrack is a huge part of that show, just rewatched it again recently and I don’t even want to know what the streaming version is like.

            „American Girl“ when Elliot hooked up with JD was substituted by some royalty free salsa music. Just to give you a taste of it.

        It would absolutely be surprising if you’ve never heard of that, which I hadn’t.

        Scrubs was absolutely ruined because of this.

        The time I spent putting the broadcast audio onto the streaming/dvd/Blu-ray releases to make them watchable was significant.
