This is the edit I was looking for. The substance of the film is intact but hard decisions have been made to cut out extraneous material that, while good,...
This is a very conservative edit of The Phantom Menace. The worst excesses and redundancies are excised or muted (one 'yippee' remains). Most of the Gungan City and...
This is a good edit of Attack of the Clones, almost like an extended version of Ebumms' version of the film. It almost counts as an Extended Edition with...
It's been so long since I've been able to see the original theatrical cut of this film! Not since the mid-90's, and I'd forgotten the massive changes the 'Special...
...well, I think I must echo the various praise this edit has received. Takes some of the best ideas from the various other editors over the years and combines...
I find myself with very little to say that hasn't already been said. A 'Hobbit Greatest Hits' collection with nixes the one nitpick I had about M4's version. ...
The new title is hard to swallow, but the editing choices here do make the re-titling relevant, as the edit places the focus on Naboo, its people, and its politics....
This is an interesting experience, putting the entire direct Powers storyline together into a movie. As someone who enjoyed the original show, I'm not sure this format quite gels....
This is a good take on Episode II. The editor confirmed the intention was to balance the best ideas of the various fan edits of ATOC over the years...
Although in general I am a purist when it comes to the OT, if you've trying to do a chronological order viewing, the original lightsaber duel falls pathetically flat in...
This edit nixes the film's universal point of criticism. If you don't already own the film, this edit easily makes the purchase worth it. DonKamillo has turned Matt...
About three-fourths of the way through my watch, I realized what I really wanted to see was 'The Last Jedi Awakens', as the first two films worked a heck of...
I really enjoyed this cut of the film. I always liked Hal9000's takes on the Prequel Trilogy but there was always a small part of me that missed the...
This cut of Revenge of the Sith is a happy medium between the original theatrical cut of the film and Hal9000's revisionist cut, with two major differences from both: the...
The best Star Wars sequel gets better. 'How the Special Editions should have been', indeed. Adywan's edit is a remarkable achievement; in my opinion,...
If you are a theatrical purist, this is your edit. Ebumms did a great job keeping the film mostly intact with its more revolting moments lightly trimmed. I...
The Sequel Trilogy feels oddly like films made for people who haven't seen Star Wars before. They are big, and bombastic, and bloated. However, although the story was...
I had never seen the original German cut of the film. Although not much footage is added, it does change the tone and pacing and oddly, it seems more...
Not much else to say that hasn't already been said. Arguably the worst Star Wars movie has been improved to the point you wouldn't feel awkward recommending it to...
For my part, this revisionist take on Star Wars: Episode I: The Phantom Menace might be the best version of the film. Right from the new opening crawl, we...
This is a very nice trimming of the classic children's Spielberg movie. Some 'director's indulgence' has been removed and what remains tells the story in a straightforward and unintrusive...
It makes me very happy to see M4's Hobbit edit here. His was not the first fan edit I watched, but it was the first to help me truly...
This edit of the DC Original Movie(s) is the definitive adaption of Frank Miller's work. If you love the original, this is 100% what you want, As a...
I am absolutely stunned at what an improvement this is. This edit addresses every complaint I ever had about Episode III and then some. With so many distracting...
Probably the best edited version of ROTJ. Not every cringe moment is cut (kind of depends on how much you like Boba Fett) but enough of them to be...
The tagline says it all. Do I recommend this? Heck yes. Buy the film and request this edit. I can't imagine anyone being dissatisfied. ...
The editing is technically flawless. Anyone watching the film for the first time would not notice any irregularities. As a repeat watcher, I can't call it perfect, but...
