The Big Chill was one of my favorite movies when it came out and for a few years after. I'm not sure why, as I was only 16 or 17 when it came out but the performances by all of the actors were phenomenal, especially Goldblum, who I thought was acting but later realized that's just him.
I'm actually glad Kasdan cut those scenes because as a viewer, it was more emotional not to see him that it would have been had we'd seen him, IMO. Plus, there were enough characters to follow and one more would have probably cluttered it up a bit too much.
I haven't seen
Silverado in probably decades but as I recall, it was pretty awesome as well.
