McFly89 was sent several copies and he also made different recordings himself from different channels that were broadcasting the film at the time.īecause each edit of the film was slightly different, McFly89 decided to create the longest possible version of Waterworld. Jump forward two years and forum member McFly89 took on the challenge of creating the ultimate extended edit of Waterworld.Īn invitation was posted online asking for any digital copies that other forum users had acquired. It emerged that a video file weighing in at just under 1GB was circulating on the internet but it was encoded from a VHS cassette recording and the quality was described as watchable.

That was the first and last time I saw the extended edition until researching this article. Many years ago, a colleague at work had recorded one of these showings onto VHS tape and lent it to me. Since that night all those years ago, this longer cut has been televised every now and again on other channels such as the Sci-Fi Channel (as it was then known) but all using slightly different edits of the film.
