Tell me what Fan edits are really good.
This will probably be the last thing I say as a reply, because you’re being very negative toward everybody and I think it’s very immature that you seem to think your edit is so perfect you’re unwilling to check out any others, BUT I’m going to give you some examples of fanedits that are the cream of the crop in my opinion:
- Adywan’s A New Hope and Empire Strikes Back Revisited (which are both on another level to any other fan edit to date)
- HAL 9000’s Star Wars prequels (Cloak of Deception, The Approaching Storm, Labyrinth of Evil)
- L8wrtr’s Star Wars prequels (whose titles escape me at the moment)
- Uncanny Antman’s Terminator 3: The Coming Storm
- Spence’s Frank Herbert’s Dune (movie edit of the 2000 SciFi channel miniseries)
- TM2YC’s Star Trek: Vengeance (edit of Star Trek Into Darkness)
- Various Hobbit edits are good (Maple Films, l8wrtr, Spence)
And SO many others. That’s just what comes to mind that I’ve personally seen. Spend some time browsing through IFDb (the fanedit database on fanedit.org), organize them by rating (both directions) to see what edits people have responded to positively for examples of what to do and negatively for examples of what not to do.
If you made these for yourself and you’re satisfied with them, then great. But if you want to share them with an established community you have to spend some time acclimating yourself with the community to see what people’s expectations are. If the expectations beyond what you are willing to deal with, that’s fine, but don’t lash out at people in the community for expecting the same shit from you they expect from everyone else.
And maybe be a little more respectful in the future and open to advice and criticism.
Again, I’m not trying to be a dick to ANYONE lol…seriously. I did ask for advice and criticism but towards to edits that’s why I want people to watch them but I just don’t need criticism for nonsense like no cutlist. I will not spoil them that way. But who cares about that anyways. Thanks for the list I’m gonna check of the first two SW ones you mentioned. I won;t do the prequels with all changed titles cuz that puts me off right there. My intention is not to change the movies just make them fit better intot heir places in the over all saga. I changed one name on mine but that’s cuz there literally IS NO ATTACK of the clones lol…but that’s my own personal nonsense choice. I tried to make a T3 once and got close to the end but it just became boring to me and I stopped. The first hour I did was real good so Ii’ll def check that edit out to see how they fixed what I felt I couldn’t. Never cared for dune, not a fan of the hobbit stuff - I’ll never re-visit them (LOTR 1 was good, 2 was great, 3 was shite and hobbit one was shite, two was great and three was half good). Those movies piss me off because they’re really an exact copy of the animated films and I prefer the old 70’s/80’s way of having to MAKE a film work rather than turn it into 5 other movies…If you film the entire book then what’s the point of reading it ever again?
Now let me ask you a question - what didn’t you like about Star Trek 12? Forget the SW nonsense we’ve back and forth’d above - this is about ST. I loved Darkness, I know a lot of people didn’t. I don’t see why a diff edit is needed. Beyond was ok but I don’t think that could even be fixed with a diff edit but what was your take on 12 and was the fan edit radically different or just a tighter, leaner animal?
Thanks - and again please don’t ANYONE be offended by anything I say or presume I’m gonna be an arse to you. I’ve said it before I’m on a LOT of pain meds and from the brain to the keyboard gets messy sometimes. 😉
Cheers and thanks for the heads up on the fan flicks!
