A Star Is Born: Encore Version

I feel that the post-wedding scene in the Encore where Ally sings her wedding vows to Jackson (the song "Is That Alright?") should not have been cut from the original version as it made the flow of the second act a bit better. Without it all we had were Ally's trashy pop songs, but here, there is that sweetness and emotion which was missing and made the original version's second act felt like a dip and kinda sour. So I'd say, that particular scene is vital for me and something that I would definitely miss if I was to go back to seeing the original version.
Plus, the little part where Ally and Jackson collaborated on Clover also helped improve on the second act, because more scenes where Ally and Jackson sing together are always good as they are the actual strength of this movie. Overall, I liked that there were more musical scenes peppered around the second act because the criticism for the original version was that there were not enough good music in the second act, and that is true.
