Split Unbreakable Glass

Can't recommend this edit enough...... Both audio and video editing was spot on but that is only half the story, the attention to detail is second to none. It is impossible to describe every little nip, tuck and re-purpose of so many scenes of these movies.

Do yourself a favour and watch Wraiths making of's before you watch the film thats been created, Its the only way to get a true insight into the amount of work, time and effort that has been put in to create this masterpiece.

No spoilers here, Just give it a try....... You'll love it........ A Full 10/10

The title itself is genius and poses some interesting questions such as how is one able to split glass if it’s unbreakable and if one can split glass how does one go about doing so without breaking said glass? well to answer the questions I just posed I believe it to be a case of samurai like precision where the blade splits the glass and they all fall into place with said shards forming a complete and unbreakable jigsaw puzzle with each shard representing a narrative thread that interconnects with one another creating the glass sphere of perfect cohesion that is Wraith’s Split Unbreakable Glass.

What amazes me is that despite the release date and development gap between movies there is a clear overarching vision throughout a vision that Wraith has managed to bring further to the surface through his non linear narrative structure although despite the term non linear I was able to understand the narrative as if it were a linear structure but that is not a criticism but rather praise towards the construction and foundation of such forward thinking levels of plot progression and escalation.

Speaking of escalation the level of animation quality from Wraith that has been inputed into the opening and ending credits is truly a work of art and a display of masterful editing that could very well be in an official movie and fits alongside the rest of the credits seamlessly just as the transitions used throughout seamlessly bridge the edges of the fine narrative shards from one scene to another and resonate perfectly with both the atmosphere and pacing of Wraith’s take on M. Night Shyamalan’s Eastrail Trilogy.

I could go into detail about my favourite narrative and musical choices along with my favourite characters but I feel that if I did that it would spoil far to much of the movie and I find it’s best to experience this blind first even if you may not have seen The Eastrail Trilogy in quite some time as such this is where my review concludes, happy viewing and well done Wraith I am very impressed.

I highly recommend this edit. Like the editors other film of The Unbreakable series, this one is like a masterclass in how to create a well thought out fan edit. I saw no issues or errors and I give it a 10 on the enjoyment meter. If you like the original film then you will enjoy this new ride and, like me , you will try to figure out where some of the new footage came from. This is a must see! Thank you to the editor for all the time spent and his incredible talent and vision.

I thought that Wraith did an excellent job mixing this trilogy together into one cohesive, 3.5 hour film. I've seen them all at one point, but I didn't remember much of what actually happened. This fanmix did a great job of covering everything, and the use of flashbacks was real helpful. It is obvious that a lot of work was put into this edit, and I commend Wraith; this will be the only way that I watch this trilogy in the future!

So, This is my first review here so go easy on me ;) I was excited to dive into this Fan Edit Scene that I had heard about. My first experience with edits was Harmy's Despecialized and like many it is my go-to for SW.

Anyway, SUG… I came in with absolutely NO expectations. I am very spoiler-adverse and so I did not read the changes break-down, read the overview in detail or watch the trailers before watching the film. I’m a fan of Unbreakable and I liked Split and Glass just fine. I have watched Unbreakable a number of times (was a favourite for a long time) but the other two just once each fully (re-watched in short bits).

First… it is still a long sit. That is not criticism though because I can’t think of anything that felt unneeded. I will be recommending this to friends.

With the opening credits I settled in as I realized just with that this was gonna be something interesting. Before the end of the first act my brain had stopped trying to figure out where we were in the time line and predicting where it was going to go. I don’t think of myself as having any right to be a critic but I’ll just say how this thing made me feel. If I was not aware of the source, I would certainly believe that this was planned to be released this way from the beginning. It felt that Wraith had everything they needed to build a very cohesive and interesting arc… non-linear without ever leaving the viewer lost in time. The final Pay-Off felt complete. There is no assumption that the viewer is stupid and needs spoon feeding. The ending of Glass did not make me feel like I needed to know more about Ellie Staple and her organization, but the ending here did! I don’t need Happy Ever After and was very satisfied with where Wraith decided to leave things… 10s across the board for My Taste, and My movie-watching space.

Well, that’s just my opinion, I may be wrong. I don’t believe this edit will replace the source trilogy, but it sure deserves it’s place in my library right along side of it. (in fact, that has made me consider a full Eastrail re-watch in the near future). I recommend watching this WITHOUT refreshing yourself with the source. I think Wraith did a real service here, (and they also seem like a Kind person as They've been helpful and welcoming to me as a newbie here)
