To re-edit the 2005 version of The Prodecers to resemble the structure, look and feel of the 1967 original but to run to the 90 mins of the original by retaining the musical numbers which work for the narrative, and removing the ones that really only work on stage.

A High Definition rebuild of the 2005 version of The Producers, given that the Std Def version is now 18 years old

Many fellow editors and fans alike wanted me to create extended editions of the theatrical structuures, much like Hal-over_9000's incorporating the myriad of changes, new material, new audio and fixes/refinements which I applied to The Magnum Opus.

Here at last, respecting the original choices (for the most part) of the original editor, is a fully revised and updated version of both of the first two Godfather movies in HD.

IN April 2019 Netflix made available an extended version of the director’s “The Hateful Eight”.

The movie was presented as a miniseries with four episodes each running approximately 50 minutes.

I have used this as the basis for reconstructing The Unavailable Roadshow version of the movie and included my adjustments removing the QT Voiceover flashback and the scoring change I made at the end. The same tweaks I made to the Ex Q.T.V.O Theatrical version Edit are identical here. I have also reinstated the original Chapters from the Theatrical and Roadshow versions rather than adhering to the 4 chapter mini series structure.

Tarantino’s theatrical cut ran 168 minutes, The Roadshow Version ran 187 Minutes while the four episodes of the extended cut make up 210 minutes (but that includes 4 sets of opening and end credits). If you remove those, you have the Roadshow effectively.

This version runs 191 minutes and for now is the longest version you can watch (that's the overture adding 4 mins).

I will not make available The unaltered roadshow version since I believe the flashback to be a serious flaw in tone and pacing.

Hope y’all enjoy this…and for the geeks, I have added those tiny markers in the lower right to indicate extra material compared to the Theatrical version.

The Restoration of A Star is Born was a tremendous accomplishment which was also the first of its kind.
It is also one which many believe to be flawed, due to its use of stills to fill in the visual gaps on what is a complete audio of the roadshow version.

This version reconstructs the unavailable and IGNORED 154 min Theatrical Version in its entirety with no bells or whistles.

This version adds to the reconstructed Theatrical Cut 3 musical numbers including the crucial proposal scene.
There is no Intermission, Exit Music or Overture.
This is my GOTO version and includes the newly constructed ending as intended by George Cukor in HD.

This version reconstructs the Roadshow version from the restored Blu Ray RT 176min, removes all the stills, but retains as much audio as possible while also adding in new elements including the reconstructed Overture, Intermission in full and Exit Music together with full credits AND a newly constructed ending as intended by George Cukor in HD.

This is the reconstructed version of the Roadshow with is 40 minutes longer in 720p and STEREO.

To remove the QT cringe fest and one scoring misstep.

More grit, Less 80s humor, some scoring tweaks and more credible.

The re-telling of the Eastrail 177 Trilogy in SPLIT UNBREAKABLE GLASS was the first part of an experiment to retool these movies with a new narrative structure to facilitate surprises, adjustments to reveals, new parallels, new opening and closings and much much more. One can be surprised again.

In what may be a fanediting first, this version takes extensive material NOT used in SPLIT UNBREAKABLE GLASS (Dr Fletcher and David's marital issues) and tells the same (or similar tale) as an alternate version of the events from a very different perspective. Over 50% of this version of events is newly repuposed and previously unused and differently structured. With a different resolution and enough left untold to permit both edits to surprise and re-reveal, UNBREAKABLE GLASS SPLIT and SPLIT UNBREAKABLE GLASS can be watched in any order and still shine a BRIGHT light on M/ Night Shyamalan's genius, patience and discipline in anchoring these characters in the real world.

In order to minimize spoilers, the first part is light on reveals however Spoiler levels increase as you go thru the documentary.
This looks at all aspect of the fanedit process, from sound rebuilding, dialogue manipulation, new scene construction, full audio and score replacments AND the planning and mapping of the new narrative structure and the rationale for the decisions made.

Parts 1 and 2 are available indiviually to prevent excessive spoilers being revealed to viewers.

Following the release of Making of SUG Pt 1, people asked for more information, so here it is.

This will be followed by a final deeper dive into the narrative structure in Part 3, coming in February 2022. That will be a feature length release combining parts 1-3 AND will include a surprise announcement.

Part 2 is heavier on the spoilers. YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED!

This is a detailed look at how SPLIT UNBREAKABLE GLASS fanedit was made, without spoilers.
The project looks at:
- Event Removal (from Dialogue and visuals)
- Modifying existing music cues
- Replacing Music
- Adding Music
- Mid Sentence dialogue removal
- Creating new scenes
- Repurposing material
- Sound mixing
- Credit roll creation
- Full audio /foley rebuilds
- and more

The re-telling of the Eastrail 177 Trilogy with a new narrative structure to facilitate surprises, adjustments to reveals, new parallels, new opening and closings and much much more. One can be surprised again.

Redundant threads (marriage issues from Unbreakable and Dr Fletcher from Slpit) and over- exposition (from Glass) have been removed. Scoring has been adjusted to permit music motifs to run through the narrative consistently, Deleted material has been used only where the narrative requires it.

New opening and closing titles have been created and all crew are credited (source IMDB).

With over 900 changes this is the ultimate fix. Two F Bombs remain

These two movies turn Star Trek Picard into two classic style Trek Movies with a 3 act structure and many hundered of changes, scoring tweaks, and much much more

This puts back the original ending that preview test audiences saw, upscaled and improved.

To create the Superman epic per the shooting script befor the movie was chopped in half by the producers when money ran out and the ending of the first half was changed.

The 1979 SUPERMAN: THE MOVIE was plagued with issues during production leading to many changes which resulted in two films being release (Superman and Superman II) which significantly differed from what was originally intended. When the producers started to run out of money, they removed the intended cliffahanger from the first movie leading to the second movie needing so many changes that the director left or was replaced (depending on the acocunts you read). This present the original vision in a truncated form to get into the action with many newly completed deleted scenes, fixes and much much more per the shooting script.

The 1979 SUPERRMAN: THE MOVIE was plagued with issues during production leading to many changes which resulted in two films being released (Superman and Superman II) which significantly differed from what was originally intended; a single epic movie. As money ran out the producers changed the end of SUPERMAN to the film we now know. This now is as close to the original structure, no turning back time, no Lois gets squised, as you can get. The cliffhanger lead in to SUPERMAN II: The Donner cut or the forthcoming SUPERMAN II Extended .

An improved preservation of the The Godfather Part 3 Director's Cut using La Coda color grade as the basis, reinstating all the removed material with extra new opening in HD.

Both Thunderbirds movies suffer from pacing issues (quite slow), very light on scoring (due to budget constraints) and just generally not as good as any of the 32 episodes. These edits turn them into full blown TV episodes as they would have been in 60's but in HD and widescreen, with score enhancements and ad bumpers. WARNING: This may be puppets and "childrens TV", but the dialogue is no t patronizing, dialogue is mature idiom (not childish) and "people" get shot in cold blood or die !!!! 60s childrens TV was full on gruesome, thank heavens.

This is a full extension of Super 8 with all deleted scenes added back in

Blade RUnner exusts in 5 versions The Theatrical Cut (117min), The International Version (117 min and a bit), The Director's Cut (116 min), The Final Cut (117 min) and The WorkPrint (113 min). This version tries to do two main things:
- include every frame from the Theatrical Cut, International Version, Directors Cut and Final cut
- add a handful of additional VO lines, correcting them for pitch and pace so they sound like Deckard

LOOPER is an excellent movie, with a few rabbit holes which the deleted scenes go some way to plugging. These scenes also flesh out some additional important character moments, plus there is a new opening credit sequence (I hate when there are no opening credits).

Close Encounter exists in 3 versions. The Theatrical Cut 133 min, The Special Edition, 138 min and the Director's Cut 135 min. All have varied combinations of scenes, some unique to one version. This edit brings them all material together AND fixes the awful blu ray grading which dialled back the intense lighting of the last 20 minutes which flooded theatres and made you feel you were there. This has been fixed.

The Godfather, The Godfather Part 2 and 3 are monumental masterpieces. This Godfather Magnum Opus will over two movies restore all available HD material to a total run time of 602 min. A few minutes never seen in HD, making it the longest possible chronological version ever seen and UNCENSORED! PLUS, the original ending of Part 3, which MUST be in full and not truncated as it was in Coda, has been restored (together with the 14 mins removed from Coda).

The Godfather, The Godfather Part 2 and 3 are monumental masterpieces. This Godfather Magnum Opus will over two movies restore all available HD material to a total run time of 602 min, with a few minutes never seen in HD, making it the longest possible chronological version ever seen and UNCENSORED!

To create two Hobbit movies I would want to watch over and over as a TRUE prequel to The Lord of the Rings

To create two Hobbit movies I would want to watch over and over as a TRUE prequel to The Lord of the Rings

These two edits (ALIEN V rt 132min and ALIEN COVENANT:EXTENDED CUT rt 154 min) restore the three act structure by creating a new first act from supplemental and deleted material. There is also a new Coda, tightened up restored scenes to develop character and score and audio enhancements to give it a more A L I E N feel all over.

What happens when you take the padding of 'Gran Torino' out and replace it with flashbacks to Walt "Highway" Kowalski's life in the US Marines, from 'Heartbreak Ridge'? You get 'Fallen Hero', a Clint Eastwood mashup. Now you have a character who is meaner and driven by his past to do right! And boy does he!

I hope you enjoy this,

Taking The Matrix as the initial universe that sets the rules for the sequels, I set out to remove all material from the sequels that did not adhere to those rules, thus using 64 min from Reloaded and 12 min from Revolutions. In crafting this into a single movie I removed material from The Matrix and added additional material from Enter the Matrix and The Animatrix, including unused music cues from all 3 film's special edition complete score CDs.

This true fanedit condenses the X-Men movies to one long lasting action ride: less childish humor, a lot less repetitious exposition, more violence, more character depth for highly increased tension.

This is an ultimate re-cut of the X-Men Trilogy to make these characters closer to the comics and darker in nature. Cheesy lines were removed throughout, needless exposition was removed, dialogue trimmed for pace and repetitions were removed.

Wraith has produced a a PULP FICTION style interweaving of the the 1982 and 2011 versions of The Thing into a single cohesive story which switches the action back and forth between the 2 movies without ruining either the tension or build up. Careful trims to the 2011 (T11) version remove a few overly CGI shots and keep the reveals less explicit until the 1982 version (T82) does its Thing. From there each film loses about a third of its material; but the progression is almost undetectable and the final running time is 2h39min, a very respectable length and consistent with many big blockbusters but is NEVER bloated.

Tightened dialogue throughout keeps the pace but NO required exposition is lost. Some crap lines from the T11 are also removed and numerous score enhancements made not just to tie the two together, but to bring the T11 more in tonal line with T82 (not that it was ever that bad). The score enhancements were taken from the 2011 complete score re-recording which is of outstanding quality, and contains un-used cues by Ennio Morricone and John Carpenter some sections which appear in this edit for the first time. Some sequences were re-ordered and individual shots also re-ordered in places for flow, pace, transition and dramatic effect.

Finally, a DVD Commentary has been produced and this will also be available in time in HD.
