The third and final installment of my “Arkenstone” edit trilogy. Like before, I’ve tried to keep the focus as much as possible on Bilbo, Thorin and Gandalf, while still giving the various side characters their moments to shine, without drawing attention away from the main story.

The belated follow-up to my “Arkenstone Edition” of AUJ, this edit aims to remove the bloat and improve the pacing of “The Desolation of Smaug”, while still retaining all the additional characters and storylines found in Peter Jackson’s retelling of the story.

A less bloated, better-paced and more character-driven introduction to Peter Jackson’s vision of Middle-earth. Most of the fat has been trimmed, while still keeping all the characters and plot points that will have some bearing on the next two films.

This is a massive reworking of the series, partly inspired by William Shakespeare's play "Julius Caesar". The edit focuses on the events leading up to and following Caesar's assassination, recasting Brutus as the main character.

This is a streamlined, fast-paced, and hopefully more believable version of Anakin Skywalker’s transformation to Darth Vader.

This edit presents a less political and more historically accurate version of Ridley Scott’s epic. Events, characters and motivations are made more ambigious, requiring the audience to think about them, instead of being told loudly and clearly how the film should be interpreted.

By trimming the overlong action sequences and other elements that detract from the story, as well as the re-insertion of deleted scenes, this fan edit provides a better paced, more focused version of agent 007′s first adventure.
