Review Detail

The only time I’ve watched Crystal Skull was at the cinema - I thought it was *okay* but fairly disappointing compared to the originals, like they decided to go for Temple of Doom over-the-top silliness instead of emulating the better movies.

Watching this fanedit was a revelation - it’s like a *proper* Indy film now :) All the bits that creased my forehead in the cinema have now been seamlessly excised and the film feels very much more like the originals now. I’ve bought the disk to slide in next to my trilogy set, but it will be there just for show - this is the version I’ll be watching in the future!

In conjunction with lapis molari’s “Willie Scott” edit of Temple of Doom, this will be my preferred way of watching the Indy films.

I watched the fan edit on my Quest 2 VR headset via the Skybox app, which lets me watch films on a (virtual) full-sized cinema screen. The edit looked superb on the big screen and I couldn’t “see the joins” as it where - the film flowed well from start to finish.

Excellent work by DonkeyKonga - many thanks for your edit!
