Hey everybody, hope everyone is having a good summer now let’s get into this!
Awhile back I posted about a BF workprint fan edit
https://originaltrilogy.com/topic/Batman-Forever-Workprint-/id/124040
which was basically going by reviews on how the cut was during the Kevin Smith’s showing HOWEVER thanks to a unknown fan they were able to re-screen the workprint cut in a theater & thankfully it during an early showing during the day which basically gave everyone a better chance to see & have it fresh in their minds as opposed to showing it at 3am. Anyways I recently decided to retackle my cut & had some inside help from Ben from Superhero Stuff You Should Know & his reivew via " Batman Forever The Schumacher Cut - Scene by Scene Breakdown " & Mindd Kidzag for providing a score list of tracks used in the workprint. Now of course Ben couldn’t remember every little shot that was different or added from the theatrical cut aside from the major ones & I didn’t use every track that used in the WP mainly because … it was a f*cking mess! Seriously if you read the timestamp of which track is placed or edited in you’d be flabbergasted how all over the place it was! So instead I just used the soundtrack that was used ( excluding cape fear ) & place the appropriate tracks to where I think fitted the best.
Cuts & additions :
• Restored the entire timeline to that of the WP
• Deleted the entire BF flyby opening credits however the BF logo is used later
• Added all deleted/alternate/extended scenes/dialogue are included ( or at least almost ) exlcuding " Wrong turn " & "
Grayson’s pain " as these were not present in the WP
• Added WB logo from “Goodfellas” (1990)
• Arkahm break out now serves as the opening credits
• BF march is retain whenever it was present in the theatrical
• Soundtracks from Batman 1989, Batman Returns 1992, PeeWee’s Big Adventure, Darkman, Alien 3, Demolition Man, & Interview with the vampire are used as the new temp exlcuding EG’s BF march as mentioned that was still present in the WP
• Laundry foo is deleted
• Batman confronting the riddler after destroying claw island is deleted
And that’s pretty much it however the cut is at 95% as some SFX are needed in certain areas but it is viewable just check my community post for the link & let me know what you think.

Side note I will try implementing cape fear’s soundtrack into the cut as while I think tracks I’ve used fitted well, I won’t deny cape fear doesn’t fit Two-Face but other then that hope you guys enjoy the cut & to what BF could’ve been at most.
