This video essay discusses the Director's Cut of Ridley Scott's masterpiece "Kingdom of Heaven" and why it is in every way, shape, and form a significant improvement on the theatrical release. One of my earliest videos actually covered this very same topic, but I basically spent the better part of six minutes rambling about run-time, so this time I wanted to do it justice and effectively break down just why the Director's Cut is so much better than the original version.

Here's a thorough breakdown with text and images(studiously written by Doc Idaho for a deeper examination of the scene by scene differences between the two versions)
