Scenes
The film originally was 110 minutes, and had several deleted scenes, cut from the film, due to test audience reactions, and the sexual innuendos and drug and alcahol references.
The scenes included:
- An alternate, more grittier looking opening
- A longer version of the surgery scene
- A longer version of Gadget and Brenda's talk, only appeared as a thought bubble in the final
- A scene of Brenda and Gadget walking down a street, and talking to each other.
- Cut shot of the Robo-gadget fight scene, Robo-gadget gives Gadget a martini and a cigarette, which he spits out and throws out.

Clips of these scenes were included in an Italian teaser trailer, and in an early trailer, but the remainder of the scenes, and possibly any more cut content, still remains unseen.
