And that’s it, we’re done

Here’s the cut list, since I’ve yet to add one (and just did so for the IFDB entry)

-Altered dialogue between Blight and Planet while Planet lays on the operating table in “Deadly Ransom”
-Added entirely original scenes with Blight and MAL after Planet is captured and then later freed from “The Conqueror”
-Added a scene between Blight and MAL revealing the true nature of the Hate power is that of Lust from “Mission To Save Earth Part One”
-Cut some shots of Blight and MAL from “Mission to Save Earth Part One” to avoid repeated shots when the altered scene plays
-Altered Blight’s threat to the Planeteers in “Mission to Save Earth Part Two”, and later altered dialouge towards the end just after Pollution’s rings are destroyed.
-Altered dialogue for Captain Planet just before Pollution retreats back to the rings towards the end of the episode to indicate the reason for Pollution’s destruction is tied to Blight’s capacity for love.

I decided to do a few little fun A.I-assisted Captain Planet edits by adding or ‘altering’ scenes from various episodes to give the show something of a classic TV trope: The hero and the baddie having a flirtatious love/hate relationship. Since one for Doctor Blight and Planet didn’t exist in the show, I had to make it up myself!

An example of ‘altering’ a scene is included here (Deadly Ransom)

Currently working a little on “Mission to Save Earth Part 1”, and added this brief scene revealing blight kept the truth about the hate ring a secret, and that she opted for an altogether more toxic dig on the “Heart” motif altogether to reflect her love for Captain Planet, and that she is happy he can’t be summoned, as she believes Pollution would have killed him

I had originally intended to do a move length version of this, but found the work too overbearing and went for a standard tv length episode instead.

For a show that’s celebrating it’s 30th anniversary and may potentially be tying up all it’s loose ends before a major continuity overhaul in a few years with the Johnathan Entwhistle-helmed reboot, you’d think Power Rangers might have wanted to go out with something worthy of those three decades worth of entertainment than bringing Zedd down to Earth through simple conversation. So I’ve taken to the editing suite to correct that.

The solution comes in merging this episode with the events of another big crossover episode in the show’s recent history, the Beast Morphers story ‘Grid Connection’, which guest-stars Jason as well as the MMPR team, so by bringing them in we tie everything neatly full circle

Lord Zedd no longer has a ‘fantasy’ of Rita, she is real, I took their scene together and placed it just before Jason and the Dino Charge Rangers are confronted by Goldar Maximus. This also allows “The End” to serve as the unofficial prequel to “Once & Always”, the way fans prefer.

I replaced all scenes of Evox piloting the Geo Zord with footage of Zedd in his command room from Cosmic Fury. Andrew Liang was the original choice to replace Robert Axelrod as Zedd, and he had to step down due to online bullying, so I find it fitting I use all of Evox’s lines for Zedd here.

Edit is available now. DM me for a link.

Changed my mind on doing a feature-length cut, it will now be a standard 26 minute episode. You can close this thread.

I have now reuploaded this edit, so you can DM me for links.

The 30th anniversary series of Power Rangers went out with both a banger of a series and a whimper of a finale. So I’m looking to beef it up a bit for the feature-length recut using a slightly reworked episode of Beast Morphers as well as the Power Rangers/Street Fighter short film to weave a new narrative and hopefully provide the series with a worthier conclusion.

Despite a lot going on, there are still several episodes that I would consider ‘filler’ or ones that could do with significant scaling down to get to the point quicker.

Those episodes are:

1. Off Grid
2. Team Work
3. Take Off

The Beast Morphers episode I am using is Grid Connection, and if you know anything about that episode, you’ll know where I’m going with the rejiggered ending. Power Rangers will close out it’s 30th anniversary with all the dinosaur themed Rangers going up against Zedd, Goldar and the Geo-Zord.

While browsing Youtube for signs of fan-generated Transformer content, I stumbled on some rare commentary tracks from Transformers superfan Chris McFeely, which he did as a favour for a couple of friends over on the Moonbase Two community. While the audio commentaries are still avail bile on the Moonbase 2 website’s archives, the visuals they accompanied remain in pretty bad quality on Youtube.

These commentaries I don’t believe are present on any DVD release that he has contributed to (some of you TF fans may remember he did the commentaries for the Takara trilogy and the Transformers movie)

I downloaded the commentaries and attached them of downloading those commentaries and seeing if I can attach them to higher quality copies of the episode

The episode are

-Seachange (season two)
-Call of the Primatives (season three)
-Carnage In C-Minor (season three)

All three have been uploaded to Internet Archive. DM for link any time.

Wow, didn’t think anyone would be interested.

I’ve sent you a link.

Is there any chance this is still available? Thanks either way.

I get a lot of requests for it so I’ll probably be re-uploading it soon. Just need to figure out how to make space for it

Thanks for the feedback my friend, always a pleasure to get these and suggestions on how to improve. Those all sound like great ideas, the danger room sequence from Apocalypse would have fit there quite well I’d have to agree and would be book-ended when we head into the future!

And boy did I miss a trick with a Logan forest fight

I’ll definitely have to see if I can start this up again with suggestions like this in mind, it’s a fun concept I’ve already went back to a few times now, always changing bits about them

Has this fan edit been completed and is it now accessible? If it is, would you kindly provide me with a link? I have a great deal of interest in it.

A current draft exists (the one that got reviewed in the thread), I’ll send it to you, I haven’t had time to update it (and some of the suggestions to improve it are beyond my skill level anyway)

Thoughts on the new animated movie Subject?

I’ve been waiting and hoping for something like this. So thanks for doing it, and I can’t wait to watch?

That said, as vranir suggested above, do you have an alternative download site from MEGA?

I could try Mediafire.

I had a google account, but it got locked for copyright violations last year

Yes, cost, time, etc, it all compels one to "work with what’s familiar’, even if it doesn’t give you the edit you wish to realize.

Still, I will give this another crack in time.

Thankyou for the very detailed feedback, I appreciate every bit of it. Not that many people dissect my edits quite in this level of detail and I usually never know what I’m doing right or wrong.

My editing software is not the best, in fact I probably would not recommend it, I use the cheapest things and as much as I try to increase the volume or blend the audio together, it always varies. I probably should think of upgrading, but I’ve tried before with more professional equipment and my learning difficulties make it hard. Also I am not a VFX or deepfaking major so I probably can’t help with some aspects you point out.

Now, onto the narrative…yeah, there’s many moments where I ‘cut corners’ to keep it to a healthy level, I didn’t want a four to five hour cut like “Last Son of Krypton”, you probably would have found my two hour twenty minute version worse off for this had I stuck with that, it’s very much how a studio would butcher a Trek movie. Judging from your takeaways, I think a cut like this would have came out after the 2023 writer’s strike, rofl (ah, one can laugh at one’s self)

I know Beverly’s recovery seems a little quick, but that can’t helped considering she’s awoken in the midst of the Vadic/Shryke engagement, and my goal was to remove all that. Prior cuts did keep her battle in, but the Shrkye was destroyed after the escape from the Nebula. I probably could look to re-including that in another draft.

My goal was never to retcon seasons one and two, they still happened, Picard’s death and synth body thing still happened etc. They don’t have much of a narrative purpose, but it’s better than cutting swaths of dialogue.

An update

The current draft is available to view, but I am already working on an improved second version that increases the length to two hours, thirty eight minutes. If you wish to view the outdated 2 hour 25 minute first draft, feel free to drop a line, or you can hold until I upload the new version.

Only took me two and a half days, but I turned Picard season three into a two hour and twenty-five minute movie

Film is about 90% entirely about Jack and his connections to Picard and the Borg

What I removed:

-Vadic, all battles with the Shryke
-The infiltration of Daystrom Station and Moriarty’s cameo
-The entire “Picard’s body is stolen” plot (being the nitpicker I am you’d think the Borg would have some of Jeaun-Luc’s DNA around long after assimilating him anyway)
-The whole business with the portal weapon and the Starfleet recruitment building destruction
-All of Rafi and Worf’s separate scenes (Rafi still shows up because I couldn’t cut her entirely, but it feels like she’s just a senior Titan crew member now)
-Now all of the Next Generation crew arrive at the Titan at once per Picard’s request
-Added footage from the first episodes of seasons one and two

Thanks, dude, You got mad skills, and this edit idea is dope. Do you still have your WandaVision Edit?

I do have the Wandavision edit, and I will be reuploading it soon!

I appreciate your amazing feedback and ideas for improvement. Edits are always in a state of creative flux, and when you have at least one set of ideas, someone will come up with a thousand other different ones, you have some excellent points and ways to tighten the bolts on the edit.

Magneto taking Jean in and just keeping her around is a much better idea, I agree, I don’t know what I was thinking just having her tail off, but then I wonder why Eric wouldn’t have used her much sooner…and then I remembered he’s supposed to be more of a pacifist at this point and needed the motivation. Your concept of his family being murdered from Apocalypse would have given him that drive to seek Jean out if he had let her go, so yeah, that scene could definitely be included for more drama.
