THE ATOLL | Waterworld's Wild Rough Cut

I'm running a Waterworld tabletop RPG and your channel has been invaluable to get the world building right. Thanks so much for your dedication to our favorite film!

Oh nice! What system are you using?

[@ThisSiteisCrap]

I'd also like to know. that sounds awesome!

[@Chris-nx9lz]

I'm using Fantasy Flight's Genesys generic system. It became popular through the Star Wars game and they made a generic version. I really like the dice rolling and how it can create more interesting narrative situations. I highly recommend it!

[@Torque2100]

FINALLY A NEW UPLOAD

[@jmanusmc2006]

There's a deleted scene where the decan says "there used to be atolls on every horizon". Could you do a what if video exploring various atoll civilizations and how populated waterworld was at its peak?

[@Elfrunner]

After reading the book, there was certainly a lot left out of the film. One of my favorite parts was the Smokers watching one of John Wayne's movies in their makeshift auditorium. I also appreciate the attention to the months of the calendar: Farch, Mapril, June, and Saugust.

[@TheAtoll]

Yes! I have always wondered if that auditorium scene was actually shot, since it is mentioned in the collecting cards, novelization, and manga.

[@ricktruman1416]

Thank you for bringing this cut to light. Your videos are always welcome and enjoyable.

[@Leprechaunproduction]

This rough cut shows how even a few snips and trims can completely change a character: Removing all references to the Smoker being a pedophile was the right call, and having Helen give up on Dry Land being real would have made her more complex, and made finding Dryland all the sweeter. I think the Smokers themselves would have benefited from a few of these shots being in the film; having them show some self-preservation instead of being suicidal fanatics would have been nice, and that scene of the one Smoker coming to help the deacon after the Deez sinks was one of my favorite moments in the novelization. Also, seeing the Mariner flopping around underwater like a drunk fish is the funniest Waterworld-related thing I've ever seen.

[@TheAtoll]

Yeah, it's pretty interesting how many little changes can really effect a film. I have always wondered what the movie felt like with the original score by Mark Isham. And yes, the dolphin swim is so funny in the rough cut!

[@wolflarsen941]

The enforcer says "Drifter" not "Victor", since he is in fact a drifter, having no name, home, or😮 place that he hails from.

[@PaulKretz]

Yeah, listening closely, it is obviously so. But at first glance (you know, it's easy to hear what you're told to hear) I thought maybe he called him Victor simply because he solely held victory over the Smokers.

[@RuneChaosMarine]

​@@PaulKretz I thought the same thing about victory. The way the people of water world use language, victor may be a title, the enforcer would have used, to replace drifter. While drifter would also fit here.

[@TheAtoll]

Aw yes, that's totally it. Oops, thank you for the correction! :)

[@brickmickbrick]

​@TheAtoll btw if you are so into water world and it's history try crowdfunding a game for it hire some devs and make a game take some team management courses and make a game you have such a passion for this movie so make something related to it

[@JuliusCaesar888]

This was one of your best uploads dude. Also, it's such a shame so many of these shots were left in the cutting room, several of them would have been awesome if kept/polished. For the record, the extended shots of the atoll siege really add to the scale, and convey the legit terror of what a raid would be like for real. That many hyper aggressive men showing up on scrappy boats with all kinds of technology - very frightening if you're already in a precarious way of life.

[@TheAtoll]

Yes, you can really see how much time and energy went into the Atoll attack sequence. It's a showstopper for sure!

[@kylehazachode]

I love this film still pushes the Jet Ski vs WaveRunner fad of the early 90s. The Jet Ski (standing) became popular in the late 1980s. Baywatch helped emphasize the Jet Ski’s extreme/gangster attitude. WaveRunners (sitting) were seen as an old person transport. Jet Ski was XTREME. The Jet Ski fad died hard by the mid 1990s. PlayStation and N64 tried to bring the fad back with Jet Moto and WaveRace64. Jet Ski never made a comeback. But I love how WaterWorld’s represented the Jet Ski as more aggressive than the WaveRunner. WaveRunners had the bulky riders with guns, Jet Skis had the acrobatic riders that sparked fear in their victims.

[@Waxer3929]

That's some interesting history I hadn't thought about. It's funny we generally call all wave runners jetskis when they aren't used as much

Man, some of those rough cuts from the battle would have been cool to have in the final film. For the record, I highly recommend adding the adult novelisation of Waterworld to your collection. The Deacon's interactions with Enola are even more creepy than the junior novelisation. (Which is the book you regularly show on your channel.)

I wonder if somebody at Universal Studios Hollywood had seen the rough cut of *"Waterworld"* and decided to add in the stunt of a Smoker skier crashing (at 10:52) and The Deacon's dialogue of "A pilgrimage for two in Dryland", which was thankfully placed at Helen instead of Enola.

[@TheAtoll]

Yeah, I'm pretty sure that may have been a hold over from the rough cut. I believe they have toned it down even more in recent years, which I'm all for.

[@JOSH-lw2jv]

⁠@@TheAtoll Also, the Stunt Show version in Japan also had a scene where after The Deacon fired a rocket with Boomer/Big Bertha at both Ulysses and the last Smoker, the Smoker resurfaced and had a chat with The Deacon. Just then, The Deacon kicks him into the water and then shot him, much like what is seen in both the Rough Cut and Novelization.

[@CartoonKarma]

I always suspected the shot for Point 12 at 7:34 was longer, as the abrupt cut to the Enforcer yelling out "Look!" felt out-of-place, as regards the flow of the editing communicating who he might have been talking to. Not that editing can’t patch up cuts like that with the right sound effects and music, but that one didn't quite. I'm guessing some studio heads (or Costner?) didn't much like the "Crabs of Hell" colloquialism for this floating culture. Number 18 (9:12): For ages I always thought he did jump ship, not only because "duh, other smokers will pick him up in a sec", but it did look like he was turning around and about to jump, so much so I falsely remembered seeing him doing so. Glad to see that was the intended case! Not surprised to see a few more moments of the more depraved aspects of man re: the drifter and the Deacon. We already know from the slave colony subplot getting trimmed from the book to the extended cut to being nearly invisible in the Final Cut that most such aspects were weeded out during production and editing. Number 46 (23:09): Think we all presumed this even before the novel confirmed this, given the public cuts just make it seem like he found a stray jet-ski by chance. I'm surprised it didn't also have the part of him murdering Jack Black's pilot character from the novel, though that was possibly cut before this assembly or not filmed at all. In any case, Deacon yelling out "Pilot!" as he approaches the skyboat remaining in the film leaves a minor inconsistency error (plus, if the pilot was just waiting in the plane, why couldn't he have snuck up on the Mariner as he was talking to the Deacon/preparing to drop the flare?). Otherwise, most cuts were wise, and a few were curios that better explain a small moment or characterisation but I can understand why they hit the cutting room floor for pacing and runtime reasons and not having "too much" world building for that casual summer movie audience. Though some of those curios would have been better choices to splice back in for the TV cut that eventually became the Ulysses cut than a lot of the needling padding it did get. Thanks for the interesting insight! Thought the channel had been running out of content to mine for videos with the lower rate lately, so glad to see this as its first entry for 2024.

[@TheAtoll]

Wow! I never picked up on the "Pilot!" line from the Deacon! I had to go back and rewatch the scene, and you're absolutely correct, it's in audio mix! I am almost positive that a scene of the Deacon murdering Jack Black's character was probably shot, but it was not in this rough cut because this cut was only composed of photography in Hawaii, everything shot in California is missing. Great comment here! Thanks for sharing your insight.

[@JOSH-lw2jv]

I wished they kept the shot of The Deacon shouting "Fire!" at 18:18 in either the Theatrical or Ulysses Cut, which was present in the film's Teaser Trailer (narrated by Darth Vader & Mufasa himself, James Earl Jones).

What was the total budget of this film and how did they whittle it down to a rough cut that must have been a 250 million rough cut right there that is insane

[@oosbeckanderson3199]

I think the movie costed 175 millions total (not counting inflation), the most expensive film at the time. But as the host mentionned, this was made out scans of the real negatives, so it's not stuff they shot just for the rought cut. It's just that whatever they used to digitize the negatives for the rought cut was not great, hence the terrible image quality. Probably costed nothign if Universal already had the machines.

[@JOSH-lw2jv]

I know that Priam was seen gunned down by Smokers in the Extended Cut, but I wonder what happened to the other Atoll Elder leaders? The ones I'm referring to were played by Sab Shimono (from *"TMNT III"),* Leonardo Cimino (from *"DUNE 1984"),* and the female Elder who tries to offer a young girl to The Mariner - before they discover he's a "Mutation" - and later in the Extended Cut seconds the vote on getting rid of both The Mariner and Enola. Was it possible that they all got killed by the Smokers as they push through the enormous gaping hole, caused by the Smoker's Kamakazi Boat?

[@TheAtoll]

Yeah, it's true, you never see the elders again after the Atoll battle breaks out.

[@JOSH-lw2jv]

I wonder what happened to those three boys that the Mariner first met as he docked on Oasis the Atoll (and - during the Extended Cut - is then bullied by two of them in his prison cage)?

[@TheAtoll]

Yes! It's the same gang of boys that keep popping up. One of them is smaller/younger than the others and a little more timid, and if you watch the extended cut very closely, you will see Helen giving him a cross bow during the Atoll battle.

[@JOSH-lw2jv]

@@TheAtoll Oh I know that, but I was wondering if they ever managed to escape from "Oasis" or were captured/killed by the Smokers.

[@TheAtoll]

@@JOSH-lw2jv Hmmm, I'll have to take another look and see if I can find anything!

[@shortfilms5667]

Now I appreciate the theatrical cut more. It was probably the best and quickest version. Even if the Ulysses cut is very interesting too

[@TheAtoll]

100% agree. Theatrical cut is my go-to

[@CartoonKarma]

@@TheAtoll Given the TV Cut added back in most of the 40-odd minutes to have almost 3 hours of footage as a TV event, and the Ulysses cut is just it with the for-PG censored moments restored, I've always though an ideal version of the film would be partway between the Theatrical and Ulysses cut. Taking the most crucial scenes from the latter - the atoll meeting, the extended aftermath of the atoll battle of the Smokers' counting their spoils and the Deacon's evolution speech, the Mariner splitting from the new Atoll and heading back alone to realise the connection on the Nat Geo magazines (a crucial character arc moment, him giving up and moving on briefly rather compromised), the Ulysses and Mt. Everest bits at the end - plus some other small additional moments and shots that are quite useful. But not retain much of the fluffy padding that harms the film more than helps it. Plus the rearranging that, among other things, spoils the Deez reveal that you noted in a prior video. And also cut some unnecessary shots and moments still in the theatrical cut (they removed all the slave colony mentions and closeups, but kept Helen lowering the magnifying glass to the slave below, then silently gasping? Uh, bit clumsy). I've thus always thought there is a platonic Best Cut of the film possible that would likely only be slightly longer than the Theatrical (still under 2.5 hours) and flow even better. Maybe something for a fan editor someday.

[@JOSH-lw2jv]

I think the Rough Cut of *"WATERWORLD"* probably would've given the film an R-rating if they had kept the scenes of The Deacon being a creep over Enola.

[@TheAtoll]

Yeah, for sure.

[@josephmontanaro2350]

Hey i apologise if ive asked this before but whats the soundtrack yall use for the intro and other parts of the video? I feel like i either asked before or you mentioned it in a video but my memory sucks lol

[@TheAtoll]

The intro is from the waterworld nes game, the atmospheric song used in most of my videos is the track "swimming" from the film score (but sort of chopped up to avoid cw), and the song in the body of this video is a song that was written for the film but was cut (it can be found on the limited edition cd of the waterworld score)

[@Torque2100]

This rough cut and the constant references by the Deacon to doing nasty things to Enola have got me thinking. Was Waterworld originally intended to have an R rating?

[@TheAtoll]

Hmmm, it's a good point! I am not sure! Maybe this is why Kevin Reynolds left the project in post, because he wanted to make a darker r-rated film. You can definitely see traces of it in the rough cut.

This would have been a very different film with this edit. Several dark turns I don't think would be appropriate for kids, which I was when I first saw this. As an adult, I can appreciate that they were thinking of not shying away from adding some darker scenes to highlight just how bad a destroyed world could be

[@TheAtoll]

[@TheAtoll]

It's quite possible it was shot and didn't make it into this version of the rough cut. The rough cut presented in this video was put together before any of the scenes on the deck of the Deez were shot, it's only comprised of principle photography captured in Hawaii. So, almost the entire climax of the film aboard the Deez is missing here.

[@oosbeckanderson3199]

Seeing The Mariner swimming in the rought cut, I *Really* get the feeling they were going for a dolphin-like style to show his amphibian nature. Unfortunately, human body don't have the same grace when moving under water.😅 As for stuff like Helen and the Drifter's "half-hour" and the Bishops's p*do undertones in the earlier stages of productions, it's actually NOT that surprinsing to me? Swabuckling films often have quite morbid moments that come out of nowhere to keep the movie serious despite all the heroic actions. "Flesh and Blood" had some very explicit sex and gore, the 90's "Zorro" film was explicit in the torture slaves received, human sacrifices to be stopped galore in movies without explicit blood, etc. I must also mentions Indiana Jones seduced Marion (his future wife after some on-and-off drama) when she was a teenager and he was in his twenties. (hinted in the first film, confirmed in side material)...😬 It took the 1990s for books/movies to stop having characters just casually show interest in underage girls and it being treated as a minor details, hence why I think the "Waterworld" film ended up dropping the plot point entirely; it was in a middle of a cultural shift.

[@TheAtoll]

Yes, this is good context here. Certainly not trying to cancel the film or anything, I simply see it as a product of its time and I am commenting and reflecting on it as that. Also, yep, hard to make a human look super strong and awesome while underwater! Haha :)

[@GHILLIESARCADEANDMORE]

I think the parallel with The Atoll and the world of Waterworld is very interesting. Waterworld being a cult classic flop, there is very very little content regarding this movie. The Atoll has managed to stretch out the movie and extra media to create a thriving and engaging KZbin channel. However, there exists the inevitable truth. With the Waterworld content well drying up with each upload, The Atoll channel, much like the atoll society in the film, is dying. Hopefully, we can get our own dry land with a new movie or tv show to keep the our interest in this film alive.

Well, yeah, in hindsight, that may have been an exaggeration when I was writing the script for this one. I think I actually meant to go back and change that, but forgot. It happens, these videos are long and somewhat complicated to create and I have made mistakes before. Perhaps I will do a corrections video at some point!
