@ smellygoat... I have both the original 1986 VHS copy of the theatrical version as well as the Director's Cut DVD which also included the theatrical version on a second disc, and while it was nice to see some scenes that were cut from the theatrical release, notably the whole Fairy Dance sequence halfway through the movie, I loathed the "original" Jerry Goldsmith score. Obviously nostalgia plays a big part in my liking of the theatrical cut, but after seeing both when I'm in my 20's, I can honestly say I prefer the theatrical version over the "Director's Cut".
But again, it's just my opinion... and I also felt the same way about Blade Runner too, where as just about everyone raves about the Director's Cut version (or is it the Final Cut version now? there's like 4 versions of the film out there!). So perhaps you might enjoy the Director's Cut version of Legend, but I highly recommend watching the theatrical version first if you haven't seen it yet, that way you can judge which one is better. The DVD comes with both anyway and it's pretty cheap nowadays, prolly like $5 in most stores.

You know I was always wondering why no one ever used the dollar sign for $ony, but then I realized they have no money so it would be pointless.
