Avengers: Assembled

This is a really good edit and removes some of over used humor in the original films to make a version of the film that feels more emotional and has greater impact. It is certainly an improvement on both the original films (especially end game). The two films are blended seamlessly together, in fact I was trying to remember where one ended and the other started.
There is one part where I did notice the edit and that was when Thor meets the Guardians of the Galaxy. I get that the editor was trying to remove the humor here because it did seem a inappropriate in the original after what Thor had just gone through. The problem is that by removing it the flow feels off. Thor goes from just meeting them to everybody knowing each others names without introduction, also Peter's use of the deep voice goes unexplained or remarked upon... but this is a small problem.
In conclusion and I would say this is a big improvement on the originals and I recommend it highly.

Having not re watched ANY MCU movies in quite some time, I've decided to re-watch as many as possible as fanedits.
Since this will take quite a while, I decided to start at the end, so that the conclusion is fresh in my mind as I look for all the connections going forward.
So I have started with what is the big finale and frankly, there is very little to give away that this is a fanedit. The excisions made are top notch and not once did I THINK "OOPS, SOMETHING MISSING"...not once...(ish). The audio editing in this is first rate though there were a few occasions where I did need to adjust the volume (no deduction mind you).
It should also be noted that in some of the darker scenes, some compression artefacts were present but I'm watching this on a BIG setup and I would expect most to not notice them, but a larger file may resolve this, but for now I score a 9 here...

As noted in another review, and I went and checked the theatrical material, the excision of Black Widow's discourse with the team after the snap does remove the only explanation as to why Captain Marvel goes AWOL for so long. Also, although the removal of the Group Session therapy was a good move, I do think a slight emotional pause here should have been retained as in the Black Widow Cap America chat before Scott turns up. I do feel that the removal of Scott's scenes at the memorial and then reunion was an excision too far and robbed this bridge of a much needed emotional reflection, though I make no deductions for it. ON a not pick point, the fonts for THREE WEEKS LATER and FIVE YEARS LATER do not match, and it would have been easy to resolve that...again, no deductions for that.

But (back to the positives) the real standout for me was the enhanced snap itself and the importation of the various snap scenes diaspora from other entries creates a bravura sequence of scenes that is far more impactful than the theatrical version and is seamlessly accomplished ( though the pager alignment could be a tad better (but it is very good)...in fact I half expected Fury's "MUTHA_____" line to be completed by sampling another Samuel L Jackson movie...since it is that powerful now (maybe I'll self tweak it...LOL)....

Overall, superb execution technically and this is a great ride which feels just right; frankly THIS will be my GO TO version from here on.

OUTSTANDING and HIGHLY RECOMMENDED....
Next: IRON MAN.

Although many bathroom breaks are required, this extended edition elevated the story to epic proportions while keeping only the very best parts. Thankfully most of the cringe is gone leaving most of the humor that remains to land better.
The editing itself is top notch. The transition from IW to EG is smooth, my favorite part of this edit.
Macmilln's Avengers: Assembled is what fanedits are all about: taking something good and making it even better.

Macmilln's "Avengers: Assembled" fan edit is a shelf replacer for me - whenever I go back to watch Infinity War and Endgame, I fully intend to pull up this cut as the one I watch.

From a story perspective, It successfully cuts out some of the unnecessary fat from the two movies, in order to make for a fast-paced experience with seamless transition between the two films. I watched this with some friends, and they all agreed that this was an excellent way to view the films together. No major or important story beats are skipped. Everything essential is here - you still get the full story, but with fewer of the corny/poorly written jokes that pulled you out of the experience in the originals (looking at you, Fortnite & Dab scenes).

On a technical level, all of the editing is superb. Not once did I notice a clunky transition. Everything flowed perfectly, and though many scenes were cut out, there were no awkward "jumps" or transitions. This is some serious top-notch work from the editor.

All in all, I vastly enjoyed this fan edit, and if you're a big MCU guy like I am, I highly recommend you give it a watch. Macmilln has created something very unique and special.

This edit is so good!! one of my favourite's out there!! If this were to be in cinemas, I would have been more than hapy to sit for the over 4 hours run time!! this is done well!! I highly recommend this!!
