Well, it’s been a while.

Anyway, while I’ve been working on the commentary track for Episode I, I’ve just edited my way through Episode II in my free time. So far, I’ve reduced everything down to 92 minutes. I’m trying to see if I can cut it all down to 88 minutes like in v1, but finding things to take out of the edit is getting difficult. There are no major changes to speak of this time around (Like in v3 of my Episode I edit). Most of what’s changed from v1 are a bunch of pacing and timing issues. I’ve added a shot here, a line there, a cutaway where there was no cutaway before, etc. I’m not sure how the edit managed to get 4 minutes longer other than perhaps the blu-ray source is edited differently from the Schorman13 preservations, thus changing the timing on certain things.

I’ll discuss what’s new for v2 when I’ve started to finalize the changes. Until then, I’ll keep cutting away and see if anything else can be reduced.
