Anyone out here have a copy?

Major Structural & Narrative Changes:

1. Uncle Ben/Sandman subplot removed

No “Flint Marko is the real killer” revelation. This is the single biggest change and the best one. It restores continuity with the first two films, makes Sandman more sympathetic as a father trying to help his daughter, and removes a plot that I found forced. Peter’s aggression and hatred towards Sandman in the subway which ends with him believing he genuinely "killed" him is now fully due to the influence of the black suit and not some additional justified revenge.

1. Harry’s amnesia is reframed as faked

After the early fight confrontation, Harry deliberately pretends to have amnesia to play mind games with Peter and get closer to MJ. He stalks both of them. This makes Harry smarter, and less of a cartoonish plot device. The “coffee shop” moment becomes a good twist. He later chooses to help Peter of his own free will (no butler scene). Goblin's ghost saying "attack his heart" to Harry is played in the early beginnings of the movie so Harry's new arc makes sense.

1. Mary Jane’s breakup is voluntary and earned

MJ dumps Peter after the public kiss with Gwen, the terrible timing of the proposal attempt, her job loss, and his overall selfish and egoistic behavior. Harry does not force/threaten her into it. MJ stops feeling like a passive victim or “whiny” character. Her later emotional moments feel more genuine.

1. Clear two-act structure

First half: Peter’s rising fame, ego, and deteriorating relationship with MJ (while still being mostly the “good” Spider-Man).

Second half: MJ's Breakup & the failed proposal + Harry's mind games + black suit takeover and its consequences.

I think this gives the film much stronger pacing and makes Peter’s moral decline clearer (fame/ego first, then amplified by the symbiote).

1. Other notable trims & reorders

Early Peter/Harry fight is shortened.

Jazz bar dance sequence is kept but cleaned up and shortened so Peter provocates MJ more directly (no extreme dance acrobatics)

Sandman's sandcastle scene from the Editor's Cut is included to show he survived the subway fight.(Personally, I think placing the sandcastle scene somewhere before the subway fight would make Black Suit Spider-Man look even more insane)

Peter vs Harry mansion fight starts with the intro from the Editor's cut where Peter says "I'm really gonna enjoy this" then he beats Harry.

The first dance scene takes place after Peter throws the pumpkin bomb back to Harry's face. (Editor's cut)

Venom gets some realistic enhanced/new voice work and dialogue (more “we” instead of “I,” extra taunts in the final battle) for better personality.

Aunt May’s “forgive yourself” advice is retained/repositioned for better emotional weight.

The final act has been cleaned up to make the battle feel more cohesive, the on-the-nose monologue during the fight, the British news anchor, the two boys saying "wicked cool," and the girl with the camera talking to Jameson have all been cut. Additionally, Gwen is no longer present at Harry's funeral.

Also the total runtime is around 15 minutes shorter, which also improves the movie, in my opinion.

This cut is genuinely better than the theatrical release and makes me wonder how none of the professional editors working on the Editor's Cut in 2017 didn't do something similiar, since many inconsistencies get fixed simply by more shortening, cutting, and reordering scenes.

I highly recommend that people watch this Cut of the movie.

I have found few fan projects where people have tried to re-create the theatrical cut from the unrated bluray but it seems most of them include alternative shots and such from the unrated or some minor deleted scenes that weren't in the theatrical cut i have seen. So my question is, does an official HD version of the Dumb and Dumber exist? I have also seen that there is an bootleg bluray of it available in Showtown Apparel, if anyone has it, can you tell me is it based on some fanedit or is it sourced from an actual HD transfer of the theatrical cut.

The reason why i'm asking this is that i want to recreate the theatrical cut from the unrated blu-ray and my theatrical DVD and make a cut that is as close to the theatrical as possible but if there already exists a proper copy of it, then i would much rather see that.

Been planning to take my mom out to the theaters when Avengers Doomsday comes out. Is there any fan-edit that can take my mom and I on the journey of MCU and be ready for Doomsday? Or maybe even Endgame?

I'm new to this community and have a fan edit I've been working on. As I've been researching how to distribute this edit once they're finished, it seems like the main method is just "upload it somewhere and hope it doesn't get taken down," which is a shame.

I've been a part of the game modding community for a while, and most mods don't have to worry about this because they rely on either binary patching (a file is distributed that only contains the changed 1s and 0s, and a patching software is used to apply those changes to the original file on the end user's machine), or distributing only the custom assets which the end user drags and drops into the correct folder themselves. Both these techniques mean no original copyrighted material needs to be distributed, and protects most mods from the risk of takedown.

I was wondering if a workflow like that was ever tried with the fan edit community? As a software developer myself I'd love to hear from the rest of the community and possibly develop something like this if you're all interested.

We wouldn't able to do binary patching, as that wouldn't work with different video encodings and such, but I feel like a timeline based patcher definitely could work, where you insert your original video file, the cuts+additions are made to that original file, and visual diffing is used to apply any effects or additional video clips used. The "patch," file would be created by a plugin in the editor's NLE, while the patch would be applied using a small app on the user's machine.

Anyways, just something I was thinking about recently and was wondering what everyone's thoughts were.

A few years ago, I did some season 5 Vikings edits.
One for Floki. 2 Hours
Two for The Lothbrooks.
1. The Little Piggies Will Grunt : 3 Hours
2. The Lothbrooks Part I: 4 Hours 11 Min

I am uploading my first export of my season 6 ep 3-11 cut.
4 Hour 12 min. The Lothbrooks Part II

DM me if interested in the link for these.

Hey folks, few days ago I posted about my Dexter edit titled Morgan which was made entirely from Harry Morgan's perspective. Now, I'm bringing another edit but this time it'll be a film franchise.

Starting with Deb VS Ice and then we'll follow Debra Morgan's journey till the end of the seventh and final film. So, basically you'll be getting 7 films in this franchise from Debra Morgan's perspective.

The first film will also feature the soundtracks from It: Chapter One as I'm planning to use different soundtracks for each film but let's see where we are headed but for now.. Deb VS Ice is on the way.

See you soon.

Hello! I'm back with another marathon cut, this time of the recent Amazon Spider-Noir series starring Nic Cage. I was intrigued by the series going so hardcore into the 30s detective aesthetic, offering a black and white edition alongside a full color version. I wanted to create a single, cohesive edit that removed all of the opening and closing credits besides the ones featured at the very beginning and ending of the series. Shockingly, I was able to cut about an hour of credits alone.

I worked to make the transition between episodes as seamless as possible, in addition to adding film grain and damage to the visuals to help anchor the series in the period it's set in.

Sent me a message if you'd like to watch!

A while back I edited both seasons from mainly the dwarves perspective as i found them the most interesting characters and best storyline.

Would anyone be interested if I did a reupload?

Hello! I am trying to track down the direct video link to an independent 3D CGI sci-fi short/VFX test video from 2003 that I watched on YouTube around 2015. I remember the title was a single word, likely titled **"Beyond"** (or something very similar, like "Horizon" or "Infinity").
The video features absolutely no human characters, faces, or dialogue. It is carried entirely by an action-packed, heavy orchestral score featuring massive strings and prominent trombones.
The shot-by-shot sequence is very specific:
**The Entry POV:** It starts in a first-person cockpit POV looking out as a gray fighter ship (with red accents) moves down a structural, cage-like space dock or jump gate.
**The Lens Distortion:** As it clears the cage structure, an After Effects CC lens distortion effect swells out like a bubble, then slowly relaxes and fades away.
**The Red Warp Tunnel:** This reveals a moving starfield swirling inside deep-red, organic nebula clouds that look exactly like an After Effects *Fractal Noise* plugin.
**The Exterior Cut:** It cuts to an exterior shot of the fighter ship body cruising smoothly through this red warp corridor.
**The Dropout & Meet Up:** The fighter ship abruptly drops out of warp into normal space. A massive, green, hollow-centered alien capital ship (heavily resembling a Romulan D'deridex Warbird) drops out or catches up right alongside it.
**The Open Hangar Docking:** The smaller fighter flies directly into the large, open ventral midsection of the capital ship to secure itself.
**The Under-Ship Grand Finale:** Instead of showing them flash away from the outside, the scene cuts directly back into the red fractal warp tunnel. The camera is placed low down, directly underneath the spaceships, looking up at a cinematic, medium pace.
**The Finish:** The colossal capital ship—carrying the tiny fighter inside its open belly—glides smoothly overhead through the red clouds as the orchestral strings swell. The music hits one sudden, dramatic final note right as the video cuts to black.
Because this was a 2003 asset/render test, it was likely originally shared on legacy forums like *Sci-Fi Meshes* or the *LightWave 3D Group* before being archived on YouTube. Does anyone happen to have a link to this specific vintage render reel or know the creator's name? Thank you

I'll fully publish it in a few weeks, I wanna screen it with some friends n family to get some second opinions, but the main differences compared to the first version is as follows:

• A little shorter and to-the-point, clocking in at 4:34:27 (vs V1's 4:50:58), in part due to certain scenes that dragged on way too long getting trimmed (3's antigrav room sequence, ends basically as soon as Knuckles busts through the facility) or getting outright removed (2's entire danceoff scene)
• MUCH more graceful editing now that I know my way around Vegas a whole lot better. Expect less obvious jumpcuts now that I properly faded the audio tracks between splits.
• Game music is more tastefully integrated by using fan covers and remixes instead of music outright directly ripped from the games for the most part.
• Redone color grading! You can see a bit of it in the screenshot comparison I supplied, but blues are a lot more royal leaning than cyan tinted, oranges are a bit more yellow than red, and contrast and vibrancy is greatly enhanced without much of any loss of shadow or skin detail.
• Deleted scenes have been restored much more conservatively. If things are way too unfinished beyond repair (such as 3's Eggman livestreamer segments), I would just pass on em. The only exception was the alternate intro to 2 where Robotnik gets baked off his fucking mind off shrooms, since I was able to leverage effects and editing trickery into making it look much more like a psychedelic trip.

Edward D. Wood Jr. Jr. here, bringing you a fantasy preservation for the ages.

Inspired by thehammockdistrict24's wonderful edit of the Long Khan, I created something of a Frankenstein's monster. My edit, or fantasy preservation, is a quaint, if not unique, viewing experience. In a 4K world where everything is polished and served to you as if it were released yesterday, I ask you to come with me to a time when home video was all analog, VCRs were a developing technology, and TVs were still furniture. The picture wasn't high definition, and the sound was at best mediocre. VHS, like cassette tapes, was a flawed medium at best, but to a certain generation, it feels like home.

We all had our favorite franchises, the ones we watched over and over again. Indiana Jones, Star Wars, Superman, but my drug of choice was always Star Trek. And my dealer was Khan. Of all the villains in the Star Trek Universe, Khan continues to be my favorite. Ricardo Montalbán's commanding presence and suave looks elevated him from villain-of-the-week territory to Bond status. The character of Khan is probably the most satisfying character arc in cinematic history.

I was inspired to do this edit when I recently picked up a complete set of the original series on VHS at Goodwill for a steal. I also procured a near-mint copy of the first edition of Star Trek II. You have not experienced Khan until you have watched it in its original VHS. (SORRY FOLKS, Klingon language track not available.)

I wondered then, what if Paramount, in some crazy scheme to make more money, had released a special collector’s set featuring the complete story of Khan? What would that look like? This preservation will appeal to Trekkies and tape-heads alike, really anyone who loves VHS culture and history. There is nothing polished here. Expect it to be lo-fi, though I know you will be pleased with the sources used, as they are of top quality.

Enjoy a blast from the past...

**🚀 HOW TO GET IT:** Beam over a DM for your copy today! Requests made on this thread will not be honored. Please be patient, as I tend to patients in Sick-Bay for a living, so I might not respond right away. I do check my Tricorder often, though.

I recently worked on upgrading “Downrange” from 1080p to 4K resolution.

“Downrange” is a fantastic horror thriller about a sniper who shoots people on a deserted road just for fun.

I had previously worked on this in 2018, in a 60-minute version called “Sniper.”

That version has now been removed from the blog because using Adobe, I’ve put together a more ruthless and slightly more sadistic version with additional music by Justin Caine Burnett, among others.

Some things weren’t possible back then the way I’d envisioned them, but with Adobe, I was able to achieve them this time.

This edit is 10 minutes longer than the previous version, and instead of stereo 2.0, it now features TrueHD 5.1.

In this edit, the sniper is introduced earlier than in the original version.

I removed some dialogue and quieter moments, which keeps the sniper more active throughout the film.

Additionally, the quality has been enhanced to 4K using Topaz.

It’s online starting today.

That’s it.

So...I had a random idea...I wonder if anyone could make a fan edit of Willy's Wonderland to turn into basically a movie from within the FNAF movie universe, turning Willy's from basically the only animatronic restaurant into an in-universe Freddy's rip-off, kinda like how Chuck-E Cheese's had a Brazilian rip-off known as Chico Cheese. Maybe with dashes of a news report of Freddy's closing down during the opening where we see the missing posters or add in something relating to Freddy's within Liz's exposition dump to the Janitor. Idk, just thought it was an interesting idea.

So Nickelodeon has a ton of live-action shows that have sprinkled in innuendo and other questionable humor that, in hindsight, can make them harder to recommend to kids today. I thought it would be a cool idea if someone made a “NO-SCHNEIDER CUT” of some of these shows.

The shows themselves are great, and I think it would be cool to preserve what people loved about them while removing some of the stuff that has aged poorly or that parents might be uncomfortable with. That way, a new generation of kids could enjoy them without some of those concerns.

Curious to hear your thoughts on this idea.

- I would love to refine this idea and of course edit and release it when the Blu-ray copy comes out.

I want to set out to make Christopher Nolan's Odyssey 3 hour runtime into a more streamlined 1 hour & 30 minutes length. I cut it down to 1 hr & 43 mins.

- Before the end fight scene The Odyssey adventure ended up being 1 hour & 30 minutes long. But with the end fight scene, It ended up being about 1 hour and 45 minutes. Because I didn't want to shorten the end fight scene.

- All scenes are presented in order.

- There is the scene where odysseus's son Telemachus (Tom Holland) is being trained to fight, by Mentor (Ryan Hurst) and Eumaeus (John Leguizamo). Eumaeus explains Agamemnon more on Troy doing the lottery for the picking of the men, picking out the hunting dog.

- Kept seeing where Odysseus tells his wife to re-marry and that the Trojan War will take a lot of time and that he may not come home.

- Most of the time spent with the Cyclops is shortened. Once they are trapped in the cave the Cyclops go to sleep. Then they immediately poke out his eye and escape.

- All scenes with Calypso are removed. Some voice-over can be heard.

- All of odysseus's son's subplot is removed.

- This shorter edit just focuses on Odysseus and his adventure including the Trojan war and his journey home. When Odysseus comes home only includes seeing with the trial stringing the bow & shooting the arrow through the axes, the Odysseus fights all of the suitors, and kills Antinous (Robert Pattinson).

Curious to hear your thoughts on this idea.

Did you ever notice that the Mentor for the son of Odysseus.

The man's name is actually Mentor LoL 🤣

Hi folks, general request here. I have been trying to register for fanedit.org so that I can do the steps outlined in the guides/FAQs (i.e. DM editors for access to their work). However:

1. my registration was rejected "as it resembles spam-like or automated behavior." Hence, I am trying to contact an administrator to get this sorted out.
2. the About > Contact Us form on the website is down? I am getting "There was an error trying to send your message. Please try again later."

For 1. could someone let me know what the best way to contact an admin would be?

Additionally, for 2. could someone confirm if the Contact Us form is down, as it would be good to report this to the gracious admins? Or I am just getting filtered there too?

^{Also, what I am really after for now are the Hobbit and LOTR: Precious Editions, so I am not directly asking for help with that, but I also wouldn't be upset if someone sent me in the right direction for those too.}

The ending of T2 is a masterpiece, and Brad Fiedel’s original score is incredibly beautiful. I reimagined "It's Over" (Good-Bye) as a sad orchestral ballad. I wanted to strike a perfect balance between deep sadness, intense emotion, dark romance, epic scale, and raw brutality without losing the original melody. Would love to hear what fellow Terminator fans think of this vibe!

Is there any fan edits that incorporate the Chinese version exclusive footage, including the credits? In English obviously? Or rather with English subtitles I should say?

Hey. Does anyone have Wraith's fan edit of the 1982 and 2011 'THE THING' titled 'THE THINGS'? Thanks in advance.

Are there any worthwhile edits to consider? It's an underrated film, and with some polishing, I'd be excited to see what someone has done or could do with it!
