Thor just wants to ride his chicken

no matter what he says in his interviews. For example...last week he told Norwegian newspaper Dagbladet

I'm not sure if I will ride in the Tour de France next year," said Hushovd. "I have other goals that are starting to become more important than a third green jersey in the Tour. To win the spring Classics and the World Championships is more tempting."

But nooooo, that can't be right. ah, yes, once his sponsors caught wind of this, he released the following

“Winning the green jersey was my major objective for 2009, and 2010 will be no different," said Hushovd. "I love the Tour de France. Given the level of competition for the green, it will no doubt be a great fight in 2010 and I am looking forward to it."

Much better. Or something. But don't worry, it's not a total about face

I am going to change some things in my program next year, to be in top form at the Worlds, since next year’s race suits me better than this year’s course in Mendrisio

Whatever..as long as Thor gets to ride his chicken.

This is one of those "Director's cut" things

The whole narrative has been changed . I think you got a lot deeper insight into the characters in this one. I’ve heard rumors of a “Final Cut” which features a lot of the deleted scenes of the chicken.

Dunno about Director's cut

that looks more like the studio bossess reshot and recut the whole thing. “our test screenings told us the 97% of viewers hadn’t a fucking clue what was going on. We need more narrative.” Is the original destined to become our very own “Magnificent Ambersons”
