Re: Scenes that serve no purpose
What about my nomination, Aragorn Falls Off a Cliff?
As for Tom Cruise playing volleyball in Top Gun, that has a purpose. It's the same purpose as Selma Hayek pouring tequila down her leg in From Dusk Til Dawn. One of the reasons we go to the movies is to gaze at sexy people.

Surprise by no mention of the Iron Man and Hulk fight which leads to the even more useless farm scene in Age of Ultron. And somewhere between that mess is the brief blink and you missed it Thor scene in the cave.
Now that I got that gripe out my system, it is back to seclusion for me.

Not necessarily. All we know is that they end up there, not how they end up there. It's not really surprising that two mutants would still end up with the Xmen in another continuity.

Re: Scenes that serve no purpose
Surprised no one has mentioned Han Solo's scene with Jabba the Hutt in Episode IV, which just repeats all the dialogue we already heard in the previous scene with Greedo.
And I agree with the OP's comments about Iron Man 2. I've often said that movie could be edited down to a 45-minute episode of Agents of SHIELD. About half of it feels like deleted scenes were reinserted back into the film to pad the runtime to feature length.

IF that was a serious argument, just to suck our own dick here, X1-X3 do serve purpose cuz Logan is the focus point of the timelines. He experienced it all and still remembers it. This is just me stroking the shaft and not cradling the balls though.

Re: Scenes that serve no purpose
That's the scene Lucas added back in, right? I always assumed that they had to cram that info into the Greedo scene once they cut the Jabba one. And if you're opening this up to Lucas's vision for Star Wars, you could probably say that about most of the added scenes.

I get what you're trying to get w/ the chuckle but ... you probably could have worded that better to solidify the haha..... unless you're serious.. then.. .well.... I guess I can sit back down on my crapper.

Still, if you're watching any of the post 1997 versions, it's hard not to notice that Han just said all of this 5 minutes earlier.
