We all know that when films eventually make their way to television, some of the more “colorful” lines of dialogue are edited or changed so as not to offend the viewing masses. Well, check out the video below for some of the more ridiculous (or awesome, depending on your perspective) movie-to-TV editing jobs.

My favorite is Samuel Jackson’s memorable proclamation from Snakes on a Plane: “I have had it with these motherfucking snakes on this motherfucking plane” which has somehow morphed to “I have had it with these monkey-fighting snakes on this Monday to Friday plane” in the TV version. Makes perfect sense to me. Check out the rest below.

And on a separate note, I’m heading south today for the San Diego Asian Film Festival to speak on a couple of panels “celebrating web 2.0 filmmaking” (though I’m not completely sure I understand what that means) alongside other folks who are probably not as confused about this topic as me including Just Kidding Films and the dynamic duo of Artichoke & Peachies. That’ll be at San Diego State University’s Backdoor at Aztec Center today at noon and the University of California, San Diego’s Cross Cultural Center at 2 PM. Then, join us at the big gala dinner tomorrow night where our friends David Henry Hwang (Tony-Award winning playwright, M. Butterfly) and Danny Pudi (Abed on NBC’s Community) will announce our five winning INTERPRETATIONS finalists. Finally, come out to our FREE INTERPRETATIONS Panel on Sunday afternoon. It should be a fun weekend for all (especially for those of you kind enough to buy me a drink…or two)!

Hope to see some of you this weekend in beautiful San Diego!
