Never thought you’d return to this franchise, NSP! 😁
I’ve never had reliable external hard drives before, and got tired of losing projects I made so I stopped editing for a long time. Now prices have come down and drives are conveniently small and USB powered and super fast transfer speeds.
Also, I love the open matte versions of the films and think that the extended editions of the first two help the films - SS a bit, and CoS so much I refuse to watch it non-extended.
I’m unlikely to work in 4k - my laptop isn’t powerful enough to render it with any semblance of speed. However, I may get in contact with JJPotter and MJBenito to consider using their work as a basis for mixed aspect ratio extended editions of 4-8. Film 3 will not benefit from an open matte version so I’ll continue to use JJPotter’s for my personal viewing.
