After Kirk attempts to chew out Decker only to have it thrown back in his face, Bones confronts Kirk about his own motivations. The action cuts to Decker meeting Ilia in the corridor. When the action returns to Kirk and Bones, the theatrical and director's edition uses a profile shot with the characters at either end of the Panavision frame with Kirk placidly asking Bones to make his point.
The special longer version instead comes in on Bones angrily dressing Kirk down, “And another thing!” to which Kirk responds with an exasperated “Get out of here, Bones.” McCoy then steps forward and tells the captain that he is now discussing Kirk's ability to command in his formal capacity as Chief Medical Officer. Only now does Kirk (still pissed off) ask Bones to make his point, and the scene then proceeds as it does in either of the other two cuts of the film.
This is one of the livelier points in the film, and was totally in-character. It's a shame it wasn't retained for the director's edition.

I remember years ago asking the manager at my local Best Buy to price match a HD television from Amazon. He just fluffed me off saying they can't compete with Amazon's prices. Instead of making a sale by taking a few hundred dollars off of a two thousand dollar product, they lost the sale altogether.
Not these days. lol
I am happy they are matching, I would be happy to buy things at BB, but not at a higher price. They are skirting around Circuit City territory, I hope they do not close down entirely. I have no idea why they sell appliances, and they should ditch car stereos too. And notice the disappearing DVD area, smaller, smaller..The BB of the future will be a smaller store if it makes it.
Yeah they were in the for front in getting rid of CD's, now their home video section is for ever shrinking and over priced.
Over a decade ago I did a lot of buying at BB.
Got 3 PC's, 1 Mac, 4 televisions, soundtracks and DVD's, computer and printer supplies, etc,etc. I used to go there on a weekly basis. Now I go there maybe once a year and usually walk out empty handed. I even purchased my second Mac directly from the Apple store because BB models didn't have large enough HD's. About five years ago they decided to focus their entire business model on mobile devices. So there you have it.

As far as the directors cut goes, I am sure they will eventually re-redo the effects in HD, and put it out once again. It's just a matter of time. Personally I am glad it worked out this way. Because if the CGI had been done in HD, then we would never have gotten the original theatrical version unaltered.
