Joel Schumacher has never been ashamed or denied that the final cut tone of the movie was his vision, and in several interviews he develops and justifies his choices and style.

To this date, no fanedit has ever done this, as they always took liberties in cutting out small (or sometimes entire scenes) moments here and there that say more about the editor’s personal taste than about the director’s wishes.

So the only liberty i took as a editor is include the deleted scenes and alternate/extended shots to the theatrical footage.

A partial reconstruction of an earlier version of The Dark Crystal which most notably excises the voiceovers, replaces most of the Skeksis English dialogue with an alien language (as found in the Bluray extras), rearranges and trims only a few scenes.

“Vengeance of the Dark Side” tells a more complete story of Anakin Skywalker’s fall from renowned hero to the galaxy’s most dreaded villain by reinserting 5.75 previously deleted scenes (AI-upscaled to 4K and recolored into HDR). Where the theatrical cut follows Anakin nearly exclusively, the extra scenes in this edit give Padmé her own storyline that intersects with Anakin's--providing deeper foundations for his growing mistrust of her--and helping to expand Star Wars lore by showcasing previously unknown aspects of the Force (when the saga is viewed in episode-order) and the conception of the Rebel Alliance even before the Galactic Republic officially falls.

Inspired by Blofelds Cat fanedit, 'Never Say McClory Again'. This edit follows a similar path to turn this rogue 007 production into an EON style produced film.

After reports of flooded mines, the small town of Kitamatsu is shaken by reports of the death of multiple miners by mysterious circumstances. What was the cause of death? Why are the mines flooding? What is the secret hiding in the heart of the mountain?

A redux? Why?

Because I realised that I've learned so much since I started this hobby that I should revisit one of my earliest edits. Star Wars deserves it.

My goal was to make a miniseries edit that didn't simply feel like a chopped up version of the movies. Overall this worked surprisingly well without too much editing, though the Return of the King had to have some extra reordering of scenes to make it work.

The vast majority of each movie is retained, though I changed a handful of things that I thought weren't so well done in the movies (Bridge collapse leaning, Frodo and Sam "rock" cloak at the Black Gate, etc). I cut a few other scenes that were from the extended editions that I felt did not add to the movies at all (extra Gimli humor, Merry and Pippin drinking water to get taller, etc). And lastly, I rearranged some scenes to help the pacing of each episode. With the new format this was needed, mainly in the Return of the King. I added chapter titles to every episode and they appear within the first 10 minutes matching how the original movies did it, I kept the short 45 second intro credits and "Lord of the Rings" Title sequence for each episode, and then added a shortened 60 second credit sequence for each episode.

A light edit that aims to tighten the pacing by re-editing the battle and crash sequences, restore some dignity (or give some that never existed to begin with) to several of the leading characters, and incorporates Spock into the denouement.

Experience the second live action Ben 10 movie with a slightly toned down Max, less jump cuts, and a small hint that foreshadows Elena's involvement in Ben 10: Ultimate Alien.

The goal was to make this feel more like the Indiana Jones movies we loved in the 80s. After watching a few edits, I felt they were close, but I never fully got the experience I was hoping for. By removing bad dialogue, CGI and unfunny moments, I hoped to make this seem like a more serious film.

Speed Racer follows in the footsteps of his big brother Rex, becoming a hometown hero in auto racing before learning the horrible truth about the industry. With his career and his family's future at stake, he must accomplish what his brother once tried to do - get behind the wheel, change the future of the sport.

In this new edit which includes a shiny new color grade, shortcuts were found and corners were shaved off to achieve a new track record of 117 minutes!

This is a prequel mini-series for Patrick McGoohan's 1960s masterpiece The Prisoner (a spy attempts to resign and wakes up imprisoned in a beautiful place called The Village). By using episodes of McGohan's spy series Danger Man/Secret Agent with moments from The Prisoner, I have edited six episodes that tell John Drake's journey of disillusionment that led to his fateful resignation.

The grand introduction of Kang the Conqueror to the MCU, featuring Ant-Man and his family! Kang found himself trapped in a place called the quantum realm and met a woman named Janet, She helped him to repair his ship but at the last moment she turned against him and locked his ships engine in stasis with her shrink-tech. Years later, Janet and her family (including Ant-Man) got drawn back down to the quantum realm and now is Kang's chance to escape with the help of Ant-Man, whether he wants to or not!

The crew of the Enterprise embark on their final mission after 5 years and encounter many past challenges and phenomena leaving the crew exactly where Star Trek The Motion Picture picks up from.

I have combined all three of the Back To The Future films into one continuous adventure.

I read "The Hobbit" back in 1937 when it---wait no that's not right. I watched The Hobbit trilogy before I read the book, and I thought they were okay. Then I read the book... that's when I thought to myself: "Yeah, the movies messed up." So I had the 100% original idea to learn editing in one week and cut the trilogy into one movie that captured the book as best I could. Along this journey, I found out a billion people had already done it... whoops! I finished the edit in October of 2020 and it was... well, it sucked. It was four hours long (I hated that), the quality was horrible, and it just didn't capture my vision. So after 2½ years and many revisions, re-edits, and re-releases, I have finally completed the edit to what I believe is my favorite Hobbit edit. And it is what I call, a Faithful Edit... eh?

I would say this one is different from others that I've seen because of its ultra-fast-paced editing. I tried to make it breathe at times, but it is really quick to everything in order to get as much as it could in under 3 hours. I failed, but 3hrs 6min ain't bad. I also was trying to keep it as PG as I could. The book could have very easily been made into a PG film, and I feel that fits better, so I tried my best to make this PG, and not include the burbs and farts.

The origin of the world's first Bionic Man is revealed!

Using the season one premiere episode "Population: Zero" as a foundation, the viewer will learn our hero's bionic beginnings through flashbacks to previous tv movies and episodes, all the while retconning the roles of Oscar Goldman and Alan Oppenheimer's Dr. Wells in Steve's origin.

Available in two versions:
* Technicolor
* Black & White

This is an edit of Peter Jackson's King Kong without most of the silliness. Where things move quicker, but there's still room for a breather.

Fanedit running time: 2 hours 21 minutes (before credits)

Would Spaceballs be even funnier with some of the weaker moments removed... AND the entire score replaced from David Lynch's Dune? I think so!

This is Christopher Caldwell and Zeek Earl's award-winning Sci-Fi Space Western with an enhanced score featuring the delicate music of Agnes Obel. Cee and her father Damon will risk one last trip to the dangerous "Green Moon" of Bakhroma to secure a better future for their small family. Along the way, they must contend with pirates, mercenaries, and a toxic atmosphere, all intent on keeping them from their prize.

Wonder Woman 84 with a proper 80’s soundtrack! The goal was to give WW84 a proper 80’s soundtrack as if the movie studio licensed and properly scored the movie. The action sequences become music videos while preserving the dialogue and sound effects.

The Kenobi show, trimmed down to a movie length. This series started life as a movie script, and the show just feels like a movie stretched to six hours. This keeps most of the main plot point, but makes it fit as an easily digestible Star Wars film.

After arriving at the Lonely Mountain and witnessing Smaug's massacre, Bilbo Baggins finds himself in a bit of a pickle... participating in an all out war! Dwarves, elves, men, orcs... Will our little hero make it out alive and unscathed?

This Octopussy cuts the worst special effect: gone is the hot-air balloon in the final battle. In a franchise famed for using real effects over special effects, that balloon was an awful stage prop! It cuts over the top bits: e.g. no swinging on a vine like Tarzan. It cuts the worst sexism bits: no ogling the bosom of Q's lab assistant, and no "good with figures" joke about the minor Bond girl.

Ah, Robin Hood: Men in Tights...


There is a good, funny movie in there. At least I always thought so. However, Mel Brooks had, in my opinion, began to loose his touch by this time. I guess one might say that what he thought was funny... just was not funny anymore. That said, much of the humor still works, even if it is buried.

The legendary outlaw Star Lord leads a gang of intergalactic criminals, in a relucant crusade against a fanatical warrior with plans to purge the universe of life.

This extended cut reintegrates 7 deleted and extended scenes back into the film, with 4 more minutes of footage. With finished VFX, and a new mid-credits scene, strap into your spaceship, put in your mixtape and get ready to be hooked on a feeling in GUARDIANS OF THE GALAXY: XANDARIAN EDITION!

Explorers. Easily one of the best science-fiction films from the 80's. Unfortunately, most who love the film are quick to point out its flawed third act. Once the boys meet the aliens at the end the film simply falls apart. The alien children, mostly Wak, are completely over the top and ruin the experience.

Another very slight edit of this Howard Hawks masterpiece, with a little more modification than done in my earlier ending-changing Bogdanovich Cut.

I grew up on The Last Starfighter. It is a wonderfully fun and entertaining film. However, it is not free of problems. It drags a bit here and there. Mainly, I wanted to keep the story focused on Alex and keep the tension and threat focused there. Mainly, the subplot with the Beta Unit has been mostly removed. I felt this would better focus the story on Alex and keep the tension up (although removing anything with Catherine Mary Stewart is heartbreaking!).

A realization of the "Cinemassacre Edit", as described in the YouTube link at the end of this description.

This is an edit that combines both of the Kill Bill movies into 1, while keeping the runtime of just 1 of the movies. Large scenes and small cuts are used to achieve this, and a re-structuring to a more chronological order has been done also.

The Final Countdown. This is one of those forgotten gems from the 80's. It is a great film, with a simple idea, that is pulled off quite well. However, the film is bogged down with excessive shots and sequences showcasing the Navy. This is a version of the film with the bulk of those scenes either cut or trimmed down, as well as some other bits here and there.

A story about Princess Shuri and her struggle to deal with the loss of family. The theatrical release fell over itself to tell multiple stories about multiple characters, this edit reduces the focus on other characters and remains fixed on Shuri and Namor.

Batman was/is a pretty solid film, but it does not get Bruce Wayne quite right, in my opinion. Also, the film itself does drag a bit. Therefore, wanted to see if a slimmed down version of the film would play better than the original. In my opinion, it does.

Generally speaking, I love Logan's Run as it is. However, it does have some pacing issues as well as some logic issues that I really wanted to address. I believe this edit tightens up the film and makes for a faster and more consistent experience, while also removing some of the cringe (just a few things).

When the last survivor of an alien planet crash lands on Earth, his incredible superpowers cause a paradigm shift for the planets heroes.
Witness the story behind the formation of the most famous superhero team in comics history, the Justice League, as legends assemble to face threats the likes of which the world has never seen.

Live Free or Die Hard is my second favorite Die Hard movie (behind the original, of course). For most it is probably Die Hard - With A Vengeance, which I also love, but I have always enjoyed Live Free (except for one scene, the F35 scene).

For me it goes;
Die Hard – A nearly perfect movie.
Live Free – Slightly flawed, but I enjoy.
With a Vengeance – Nearly perfect.
Die Hard 2 – A good (but not great) action movie, with no glaring flaw that can be fixed by an edit and doesn’t necessarily need it anyway.
A Good Day to – Very flawed and just not a good movie at all. I already did an edit of it, trying to make it at least tolerable as part of a rewatch.
But back to the point of this post, Live Free or Die Hard. This edit uses the unrated version as the base and adds back in most of (if not all) that was removed from the theatrical to make the unrated version. The only things that were not added back are the lines that were directly replaced with a new line. And the biggest changes are to the F35 scene near the end.

White Water Summer was a solid piece of 80's escapist fun. However, it was painfully undercut by the insertion of cuts scenes and narration by Sean Astin that frame the events of the film as a flashback. The sole intention of this edit was to remove these cuts scenes and narration and to allow the film to play out in a linear fashion without the interruption of these intrusive moments.

There was a story about 2 brothers who had a natural talent for alchemy called Fullmetal Alchemist. This story was originally told in a manga, but before the manga was finished an anime was put out. The anime had to change and create some original story elements because the manga was still ongoing at the time.

After the manga had finished they wanted to revisit the anime with a version closer to the actual story told in the manga. This would be known as Fullmetal Alchemist: Brotherhood. The only thing was due to retreading some story elements told in the original anime, they shortened some story beats for FMAB.

Serving as a continuation to The Last Jedi - Consistency Edition, this edit modifies The Rise of Skywalker to be a more fulfilling end to the trilogy by smoothing out the plot, removing convoluted elements, and modifying aspects of the film to elevate the story.

BUT THERE ARE SO MANY HOBBIT EDITS! WHO IS THIS FOR?

This is a Movie-to-TV edit based on AdamDens' 'The Hobbit: The Original Two-Film Structure', with a few further tweaks.
Therefore, this edit will be most suitable for people who want-
* A high quality edit with well-considered changes, tightened and polished and with minimal frustration
* Tonal and visual consistency with the Lord of the Rings movies, and the retention of the majority of content which sets up its plotlines
* A digestible, episodic structure (8 episodes of ~50 mins each)

As a longtime Sonic fan, I thought it was an ok movie that could've been better with more references to the classic games, a less funny villain, and the main character with a more "rock n'roll" attitude. This edit was primarily aimed at getting rid of most of the "Careyims," as I call Jim Carrey's overacting. If you pay attention, Robotnik has a more malevolent and sinister side in the script that was buried because of Jim Carrey's over the top persona. Robotnik is now more sinister, most of the film's songs have been replaced, and various sound effects from the classic Sega games have been used.

THE CLONE WARS: REFOCUSED presents the entire Clone Wars as a complete series of five seasons of about ten TV-length episodes each. Now structured and presented with the conventions of a more mature modern TV drama, it tells the complete narrative of the Clone Wars, retaining all the most important and enjoyable elements of the show, whilst trimming a vast amount of the weaker content, saving you over 17 hours total while still telling the same core narratives. Episodes have been refined, refocused, reordered and recontextualised to maximise story quality and viewer enjoyment, both for the show’s own complete end-to-end story, and for those seeking a supplement or introduction to new canon like the Mandalorian, Bad Batch, and wider Filoniverse.

Live and Let Die, the Goldilocks version: tempo is dialed up (no more looking at your watch during the boat race), jokes and stupidity are dialed down, Bondgirls are less bumbling, sheriff is mostly removed, and nobody pops like a balloon.

Eon Returns is an edit of Ben 10,000 Returns that keeps Ben’s future unknown by establishing Ben 10,000 as another alternate future version of Ben, while also providing small hints to Eon’s identity earlier in the episode.

I have always been intrigued with Legend because of the movie posters and the people involved in making the film, but it wasn’t until the lost Director’s Cut was released on Blu-ray in 2011 that I decided to finally sit down and watch it. After watching the different versions of the film, I thought the Director's Cut was the best of the bunch, but felt like it was hampered by some of the editing and childish humor. So I set out to make an edit that addressed those issues and hopefully create a more tonally consistent, polished film.

While an enduring cult classic, the original Tron film suffers from a critical pacing issue in its opening act. Cutting between the world of the Grid and the real world only serves to alienate new viewers and confuses the internal logic of the story. By removing the first 8(ish) minutes, the plot is not only clearer, but gets going much faster and with fewer distractions.

This is a light edit of the first live action Ben 10 movie that doesn't drastically deviate from the original. Adjustments are spread throughout the entire film to give it a better cartoon to live action experience. The out of place scenes such as Grey Matter trashing the diner are removed, and various trims throughout the movie allow the plot to move quicker.
