I think most people who also did will agree that digital editing, once you learn the software, is easy. Yes, Adywan added many more elements, and some of them are excellent. Some of them are not. But the editing part is nothing special, almost anyone can do it if they try...

It has never been the editing bits of SW:R that has had people impressed, but rather those added elements. It is just down right ridiculous how easy it has become in to do editing on your home PC in the last few years. It is no exaggeration to say that it can be done by absolutely anyone who is willing to give it a try. But those added elements are the thing that makes Ady's edit unique, it, not the editing, is what puts many here in awe.

You did come off a bit strong in your initial posts on the subject, but also realize that Ady's edit has had a history of sensitivity around it (though not from Ady, but his fans. This can be seen by browsing the pages, the bits linked to about MojoLA are an excellent example). It has some extremely loyal fans who feel the need to defend its and Ady's honor to the death. But like any creative endeavor, it doesn't need that, there will always be those who think it is smack you in the face brilliant, and those who think it is pure crap, and of course everything in between. That is the beauty of real life, you can like whatever you want, and dislike whatever you want.
