Moonraker Plot, The

Fantastic edit--this is what a James Bond edit should be. Concise, to the point and serious enough to be genuinely believable. Really great work Ed, replaces my copy of Moonraker

Very cool! As has been said, Moonraker isn't one of the better Bond films and even in an excellently edited version like this, it isn't one of the better Bond films. I first saw this in a theater when I was 11 (so much cleavage and never a nipple! The 007 franchise slogan).
This edit strips away a lot of what was wrong with the original. I couldn't tell you anything I didn't like about this edit. Drax makes for a very good Bond villain. Jaws isn't exactly menacing, but he is as close to it as possible in this version. Everything you did worked. I wasn't sure exactly where you changed music (except where you stated it was changed in the cable car fight) but the music during the speedboat chase was excellent also. There was one tiny thing that stood out: the keypad sound was a little too loud, I thought. Not exactly a big deal, but looking for flaws in this isn't easy.
I don't know what else to say except I think you basically saved this movie (as much as can be done). You should tackle Octopussy.
Recommended to all 007 fans! Easily replaces the original cut. So glad I got finally see this one.

I enjoy this edit. You took care of all the silly junk in the move. I like you made Jaws more serious & scarier. Also I like better that Jaws does not have a girlfriend. That's good you took out the boat-car in the park with that double looking pigeon that was so retarded, that did not look like a Bond movie at all. That boat chase edit & new music was really good part. I thought it was funny and different that you had Jaws killed off towards the end. I do not mind if you kept some of Bond one line jokes in the movie, you see that's how Bond make fun of the bad guys & humor. That's why Roger Moore was good at it and unique, no one does it better then him. The Audio and visual was great.

i really liked this edit, this edit showed just how much better this movie could be.
i loved the new scoring of the action scenes and i like how this cut out all the silly dialog and one liners
this movie is now quite a good movie instead of the silly rushed mess it used to be.

i highly recomed this edit and look forward to seeing more from musiced921,
this is now my go to version

A very enjoyable, successful effort to give some dignity to what used to be the silliest, most problematic 007 film (before DAD). The edits were well chosen, giving the film a much smoother narrative flow and making it easier to enjoy what is still one of the most beautifully filmed Bond entries. I always liked Barry's strangely languid score so the music changes weren't essential, but they're pulled off here nicely. Definitely recommended.
