A very good edit, this is what fanediting is all about, taking us to a familiar movie but with an all new spin,

The flow of the edit is very good, the progress of the story from happy Shire, to Gandalf uncovering the truth (great place to put in the flashback) to Bree, Nazgul and so on and so forth, the only tiny problem might be the Gollum part, because we as the audience don’t know about Gollum – perhaps it would be possible to rearrange a few of Gandalf’s lines and add Gollum finding the ring and Bilbo getting it to the Isildur story? – just a thought

I am really looking forward to the rest.

10/10

5/5 to me. But I think it is because the Tolkien angle fits good for this first part (the suspens about what happened to Gandalf and the nice cliffhanger, for exemple)
I wonder how will look the following edits…
Technicaly I did not notice anything wrong. Great job!

Downloaded this yesterday, I really cant believe this is your first edit, amazing stuff. Couldn’t fault it anywhere (not that I was trying to). Look forward to the next book, enjoyed every minute of it, and this is without doubt a much better way to watch Lord Of The Rings.

I shall be rating this 5/5 if I could give it more I would. Excellent job.

First off, I would like to comment on how the idea of separating the 3 movies into a series of 6 is brilliant. I have never read the books, but I loved the concept so I decided to give this a go.

Book 1 was very enjoyable. It ran so smoothly I forgot which parts you actually took out, as I missed none of them. The new opening and closing sequences were extremely well done and very effective. Right away they take the viewer and overwhelm them with the fact that they are about to experience LOTR in an entirely new way. The ending was also nicely executed and the not mentioning of Gandolf until book 2 was a very good way to build the suspense. I honestly cant think of any negatives or criticisms of Book 1, it really was very well done. 5/5
