I recents bought IG2 to have the opportunity to watch the deleted scenes, and once I did, I figured something out.
As most of you know, I'm not as fond of the sequel movie as I am of the first, but I think that if they had kept several plot points, then IG2 would have been way better.
For one thing, they should have kept the subplot involving Penny's school activities and the powder that turned green on skin contact. Considering that would have allowed her to let Gadget know what we going on, it would have deleted the need for that stupid talking dog scene, which was specifically made to replace this subplot.
Also, I believe they should have kept the "Claw grills Penny" scene. I firmly believe that this is the best scene out of both movies. It is also the only case in any medium where Penny and Claw come face to face. It did a good job of giving Claw an air of menace, as well as explaining jus why Penny does what she does (an explanation that shows why the Gadget without Gadget fanbase is missing the point of the show.)
And why are these two superb points completely deleted from the movie? To make it possible to have a wacky, zany, fast paced end to the movie. I mean, in the audio commentary, the director almost bragged about coming up with the talking dog scene, because it let him raise the pace. Never mind it completely ignored the "show, don't tell" principle and got rid of several very clever plot elements. *sigh* It just makes me sad to think there was a much better movie in the works, and it was deleted for a more Looney-Tunes-esqu ending.
What do you think?

Agreed. Those two deleted scenes should have got into the movie, especially the scene where Penny and Claw meet face to face. I even made a joke about that scene on the deleted scenes video on youtube: Claw - *looking at Penny* Join me! Come to the M.A.D. side! You can't refuse, Penny! This is your destiny! Penny - *pissed* I'll never join you! You killed my parents! Claw - No, Penny. I AM your father! Penny - *shocked* No... That's not true! Gadget - *appears from nowhere* Uhm... Actually, he is. Penny - NOOOOOOOO!

Man, if that's the case, Claw's the worst father ever. Indeed That would have created an awkward backstory.

glad the nose picker scene was left out. good call on that one lol . I actually thought that scene was hilarious! Stupid! But funny! But seriously, if they really wanted to do a scene like that, then they should of used Gadget's skeleton key. It was located in his pinkie finger!
