QDoes anyone from the original movie appear in this remake?
ADebbie Allen, who played Lydia, a dance teacher in the original movie, now plays the school's principal, Angela Simms.
QWhat are the differences between the Theatrical Version and the Extended Version?
ASimilar to so many unrated versions, which promise more gore and sex (latest example Jennifer's Body), this one is basically a deceptive pack - the backcover-print "featuring over 15 minutes of thrilling dance footage you couldn't see in theaters!" should not be believed. Actually, there is less dancing as there are mostly only "normal" plot-/dialogue-extensions or some longer songs once in a while. BUT: This doesn't harm the movie at all, as it is rather poor in terms of characterstudy. Jenny's casting-act for example, the final meeting of soon-to-be-director Neil with the shady film producer or the talk between Denise and Victor about their solidarity as a band do improve the plot. The longer songs should please the target audience, as well.
So, the extended version surely is the preferring movie version. A detailed comparison between both versions with pictures can be found here.
