Yep, a perfect 10 from me. I have loved this movie for a long time, and enjoy watching the various iterations of it. Wraith's edit is now part of my...
M4 achieved his goals in this edit. It loses all the weird time-filler side plots, it loses the physics defying antics of the elves and dwarves. Focus is back on...
I'll start of with his was a good watch overall. The technical aspects of cutting, reframing, color correction, and rescoring are near flawless. There's one scene I could tell was...
This is a great edit. Combining the best of the top edits was genius, as was splitting it into 5 hour-long episodes. Breaking into...
I have always enjoyed this movie, warts and all. It hit at the right time for me, so became a favorite. One of the the things that stood out for...
A great edit of Dune. The deleted scenes were cleaned up as much as could be expected, and integrated well enough. You could tell where they were, but there's only...
This is a pretty light edit, but has a large impact. The simple cuts brings the suspense up closer to Alien. No unneeded spoilers here. This is now my go-to...
I may have a new go-to version of this film now. I've always liked Dune, warts and all and I really enjoy the spicediver edit. But this one is my...
This one definitely falls squarely under the title Fan Mix. It's not trying to fix anything, it's just a what if exploration. BionicBob has set up an entire imaginary TV...
This is a pretty light edit, but since there is limited material to work with there's only so much that could be done. All the added scenes flow perfectly, I...
This is a fantastic distillation and re-imagining of the original trilogy films. The story is mostly the same, with some well considered alterations that work really well. I didn't really...
This condensed version works quite well. Lots got cut out as would be expected distilling 3 movies down to a single 2 1/5 hour movie, but the edit achieved its...
I love the original movies, warts and all. That said, this is a great edit. It makes what is for me an already enjoyable movie even better. ...
As with the rest of this edit, I enjoyed the final chapter. The story moves along briskly without jumping away of dwelling on extraneous stuff. Removing the Eye of Sauron...
I liked how this cut removed a lot of unneeded silliness and side plots. All the characters were improved. Denethor felt less insane up until he thought Faramir was dead--then...
I continue to enjoy Kerr's reworking of these movies. There's a lot of cutting and restructuring here, and for the most part it works very well. ...
This one is more heavily edited than the two Fellowship of the Ring edits, but then I think there's a lot more material added here that needed to be trimmed...
As with Book I, this edit accomplishes its goals. It follows the books much more closely than the original release, or EE. I especially appreciate...
Not much to add at this point. The edit is technically flawless. I could not detect video or audio editing anywhere and just enjoyed watching. ...
After watching this edit, I came back to review the change list and was surprised. The *impact* of the edit far outweighs the *changes* of it. It's actually a decent...
Overall I enjoyed this edit and I think it helped the movie. There's not a lot to work with, so only so much can be done. ...
This is a fantastic edit. I like the original film a lot, but TinyBreadMouse nailed the little bits that could use rework. I had to go to the edit list...
This one was a little tough to review. I'm not a connoisseur of grindhouse films, and fanedits is what's introducing me to the genre. It's...
It's been a while since I've watched the original version of this one, but I do recall it being somewhat long and overwrought for what should be a fast-paced adventure...
The details have already been covered well. For me the biggest help has been the big trims, mainly the Finn/Rose storyline and the casino. Those distracted and dragged the whole...
Others have already covered details on this, so I won't rehash that. Technically the edit is fantastic, I could not detect where any changes were made in the video or...
I'll admit, I've always been to two minds with this movie. The overall plot, locations, and action sequences have always been classic Bond for me. But Lazenby as a one-off...
This edit absolutely transforms the movie and hits all the stated goals. This really demonstrates the power of editing. The story arc is clear, and the numerous annoyances of the...
I have enjoyed the Daniel Craig Bond films. These have presented the character more like I've always wanted, so I have few issues with the films overall. ...
Thunderball has always been among my favorites of the franchise. But some sequences have always kind of dragged. This edit addresses almost all of that. ...
It's been a while since I last watched this. I've always wanted to like the Brosnan Bonds, but they fell too far into the Moore camp style than the earlier...
This was a great introduction to the fanedit world. I enjoy the original versions of the movies and am not as bothered as some by the extra stuff put in...
