Here's basically everything that was included in the Director's Cut, and yes, it really added alot to the movie.
Spoiler:
There is a segment where teenage Evan stumbles upon his fathers case file, which shows that he, too, suffered from the same blackouts as Evan did. While Evan kept a journal, his father kept a photo album.The other addition ties into the alternate ending of the Director's Cut. Evan and his mother visit a palm reader after the dinner segment. The palm reader informs Evan that he has no lifeline (the fold in your hand near your thumb?), and that he was never meant to be born. His mother explains that she had a couple of stillbirths before Evan.
Now, the ending. Evan crawls underneath the doctors chair and begins watching a home video of his mother being rushed through a the hospital, to give birth to Evan. True to what the palm reader said, Evan wasn't born in this alternate reality! The movie is all about how Kayleigh and her brother ended up actually moving back in with their mother, and in the end, Kayleigh getting married. In the theatrical version, Evan and Kayleigh met at the party, where Evan told her to stay away, thus never meeting her. This time, however, he was never even born. Crazy, crazy ending.
The other 2 alternate endings, in the deleted scenes, are basically the "corporate" versions of Evan and Kayleigh, as they pass each other outside. One, Evan truns and follows her, then fades to black. The other, they actually speak, and go out for coffee, which is weird for 2 people that never met.

So he actually doesnt have to remeber anything for him to do his little thing, just visualize the moment? Does he kill himself as a baby?
Spoiler:
He has to have his journals in order to change Kayleigh's outcome. The alternate ending is basically Evan time travelling back to his birth, where he finds he was never born. Therefore, Kayleigh and her family never encounter Evan, who for the most part, ruined their lives by loving Kayleigh.
It's just a more extreme ending than meeting her, telling her to stay away from him, then going back to "present day".
IMO, anyway.
i think the most interesting one was with the birth because it explain about Evan's brothers and sisters and explained how they had the same gift so to help ppl not getting hurt etc, they go back in time and do the same thing that even does. although that is an awsome ending, i still prefer that one they had. It just shows that its nt like any other movie and that they can have different endings and it wasn't predictable. it always has that hope in it which keeps you wanting more because tou want to find out what happens etc etc
