QIs it true that Steven Seagal held up production because he didn't want to film his death scene?
AFrom the Trivia page: Originally, Travis was to die due to low cabin pressure causing his head to explode. Steven Seagal refused to shoot this scene for fear his fans would not like it. Director Stuart Baird insisted he must do it as scripted, though Seagal held up filming for a few days and argued that the scene was not realistic. Finally after threat of contractual breach, Seagal agreed to return to filming and a new death scene was scripted.John Leguizamo stated that Seagal didn't want to film his death scene because he had never died in a film before, so he locked himself in a trailer and refused to come out. Also, Leguizamo stated that Seagal wanted to re-write the scene in which Travis would hold the stealth jet and the passenger jet together like Superman until the crew was safely aboard, therefore the character wouldn't die. Though John Leguizamo has made it pretty clear he isn't fond of Seagal, and he also comes from a comedic background so it's possible that his story is true, but was embellished for comedic purposes.
QWhat are the differences between the British BBFC 15 version and the uncut version?
AIn Britain, this movie has only been released in a slightly censored version, missing out three short action sequences involving a knife. A detailed comparison between both versions can be found here.Executive Decision was at first released in Germany and the UK in an adapted, pre-censored version. Probably this also concerns other European countries and maybe Australia too. Many references to the Islamic-fundamentalistic background of the terrorists were deleted in this pre-censored version. By this time, the movie has been released on Blu-ray in many countries, in the USA too. But it seems that Warner used the old pre-censored master for the BD. This master is the source for all Blu-rays worldwide. So the cut version was released in the USA for the first time. A detailed comparison between both versions with pictures can be found here.
