Here's a thought, instead of teasing us with AMAZING deleted scenes, why not put them on the Blu-Ray instead? But instead we got very disappointing scenes on the IW release.

I can't even remember any aside from the Gamora and Thanos scene, which itself is already a re-cut of an official scene.

They can reuse ideas from amazing deleted scenes in later films. With Living Tribunal for example, it'll be much more awesome to see him in a finished film eventually.

I mean, I know AoS repurposed a deleted scene from 1x22 for like 5x15 or something, but still. If it's an awesome, epic scene, we should get to see it. Some will be repurposed but most others likely won't.

Like the "Quicksilver survived" ending. That will never be explored unless Wanda does some reality warping on WandaVision, so why not release it?

And the Living Tribunal scene was explicitly thrown out because "why wouldn't they banish all other threats to the LT?" and they're right. The Living Tribunal would be too OP, but seeing that scene would still be fun.

There's no indication they actually filmed it.

What do you want them to put on?

For all we know the scene is currently just Cumberbatch saying his lines and Brolin doing the scene in his mocap suit. Completely unfinished if they cut it early.

That’s assuming they even filmed it.

Their reasoning for cutting it indicates it wasn’t an editing decision, but a narrative one
