Review Detail

*NOTE: I discussed this edit with @That One Guy, and this review takes into account the fact that this was their first ever edit. If they ever remaster this one, I wanna be first in line to watch it.*

What a really unique idea! It reminds me a bit of the Tarantino Tales, fully abbreviating the story into less than an hour (plus a bunch of post credits alternate endings)! The quick setup, the video game inserts, the cute sound effects, the title cards, they all add up to a story cooking along at high speed.

Aside from some sound effects being overly loud, the audio and music changes are smoothly done. Where this edit suffers is purely in terms of visual editing: there are a few errant frames; lots of fading between scenes; black bars that can be removed; etc. Even still, many of the other cuts went entirely unnoticed by me so I think it's just a case of going back and tightening it up, smoothing over the transitions. There's also a slightly noticeable difference in some scene quality.

But listen, all of that is to say I had an absolute BLAST with this one, regardless of any issues. It's such a fun movie and this was a fun way to watch it! Your narrative choices were great and I laughed quite a bit at what you left in and your sound effects. Congrats on realizing a very unique idea!!
