UPDATE

Goblet of Fire Ultimate Edition now has an updated version to compliment OotP Ultimate a little better as well as fix some annoyances / issues either found by me or the community.

These include, but are not limited, to:

• Harry’s nightmare sequences touched up, and are now more smooth.
• The opening is a little bit better paced.
• Removed a brief blink-and-you-miss-it skull in the opening WB Logo from the original opening sequence.
• Harry’s nightmare sequence after the Yule Ball is edited to be more like his nightmare sequences in OotP.
• Color graded some orange-toned scenes to be more yellow, to fit better with the continuity that came before (CoS & PoA Ultimate Edition)
• Tightened up the “Deleted Scene” of Severus, Karkaroff and Harry to give the film more urgency in the middle portion.
• and more…

OotP - Ultimate Edition

will most likely release tomorrow. The edit is more of an achievement in sound editing than anything I’ve done previously, as my main issue with the film is the lack of it feeling like a Harry Potter movie. Now, with the new soundmix - that both allow OotP to have its own musical identity from Nicholas Hooper but also have the continuation of all previous, established themes of the franchise, as well as promote upcoming traces of HbP and DH themes, turns this into the shift in tone that I want it to be.

My other gripe with the film was that certain aspects were too quickly glossed over, like Neville reminiscing about his parents’ death after Bellatrix escaped or the escape from Azkaban (where are we? What’s happening? What is this place?).

Besides from this, OotP is the best edited Harry Potter film by far and I wanted only to enhance it, not change it.

Hopefully this comes across in the upcoming release.

Just got done watching it. Great edit overall. I did notice some subtitles missing like at 2:37:10. One thing that has been on my mind is, do you know what the slow piano music is at 59:30. I swear I’ve heard this in your GOT edits before,but couldn’t find it on ytp anywhere.

Cheers, my friend. I’m glad you enjoyed it. I’ll look into the subtitles.

was this HotD film I or II? 😃

😄

Finally Star Wars got their spine back! Brave decision!

This is a good day for Star Wars. First acknowledge the problem - and then course correct.

“This will begin to make things right”.

Brilliant! Please shout me a link Vranir and I’ll find a date to watch this.

Congratulations, my friend! ❤️

Completely agree. I think if the creators had thought it true they could have just put the white walker vision to one of his first nightmares and then focus on his guilt in the latter episodes and it would be a more emotional resolution to his season’s arc, and they could’ve had their cake and ate it too. Instead - as you point out - it was all left rather confusing and pointless. Hopefully fixed in the film.

Thank you, antani, my friend! Hope you had a great summer!

I also forgot to mention that mostly all fast-travel is restructured to feel like there is none.

House of the Dragon - Film II - The Wars To Come

is released, with subtitles.

Major changes from the main story/season:

• Alicent and Rhaenyra doesn’t keep meeting up in secret.
• Rhaenyra complains a lot less.
• Jahaerys and Baela are turned into more active players.
• Corlys have a lot of his scenes re-arranged to feel more included and important to the overall plot.
• Daemon’s story at Harrenhall is re-structured and have more urgency added to it.
• Daemon changes his allegiance back to Rhaenyra from PTSD and guilt, not from White Walker preminition.
• White Walker Weirwood dream is altered and takes place earlier in the story, and is left more up to the imagination than the original season allows it to.
• Fast Travel is restructured so that there is none.
• The pacing is very strict.

Besides from this, the season has been turned into a very intense and paced-up film narrative with a lot of montages to keep the story going and engaging at all times.

No worries. Sent PM.

How goes film 10? I just finished binging these with my partner and cannot wait to see how you finish it off!

Hopefully before the end of the year. I need to be fully satisfied with the ending, and it is tougher than one would think. Although with the cancellation of Jon Snow show and the importance of prophecy and White Walkers in HotD I think the dark ending will be very fitting to end the (ongoing) GoT franchise.

In the original film you have no idea where you are, where the prison is or what is going on when this scene takes place. I wanted to fix that. It is also way too rapidly cut for my taste, and we jump from explotion to Bellatrix walking outside without a pause between the two. Also fixed.

Also wanted to keep the strong continuity of the music, with Voldemort’s foreboding theme from GoF (the previous film) to better bridge the two films in their sound design.

Cheers, Cam. I think the downmix to stereo is the culprit here, but on the surround channel it is a tad loud (on purpose) on the front channels. I can lower them slightly so it won’t be too overbearing for anyone more audio sensitive.

Great to know! I just want to make sure everything is up to snuff! 😄

Which is why I always value your feedback.

Cheers, guys. I’ve been so busy with the GoT edits and some shorter ones, but I’ll do some more work on OotP this week.

I’ll upload a scene or two as well.

CamSMurph said:

I also remember the wonderful opening sequence you expertly constructed! I’m hoping that remains in the OotP Ultimate Edition! 😄

Thank you, Cam. Everything is done from scratch, but the new opening is in spirit of what the original opening was.

Ŧhank you both. You are most kind. Work commences.

Have a good summer, all of you.

I hoped someone would do this to see if this show is salvageable, so here is a copy-paste from my review thread, a wish-you-well and some ideas I think would greatly improve your film;

Copy-Paste review:

"Just watched a 20-minute recap of season 1 with scenes to accompany it, and my few cents are the same as my thoughts before the series’ premiere;

the acting (oh my god, the acting), the dialogue and at times the location designs are what is really ruining current Star Wars and this series. Dialogue and acting has to be a dance between the two professions, but here it comes across as your drunk uncle dancing with your cat at your sister’s wedding. It’s just not good, but it is hilarious.

And for the budget this thing had, with most of the location designs they create and use… and costumes… I’m… speechless… It’s literally Disney Channel from 2012 sometimes. Like, I’ve seen clips that make me think “that could’ve been from Hannah Montana”.

I will also say, from the 20 minutes I’ve watched, I did like 60% of the Sith executing the Jedi sequence. They have held some of the fighting on this show to a high standard. But when many of the actors can’t pull of a believable face of dread or sorrow in a scene of pure chaos and horror… then it becomes a comedy, doesn’t it.

Closing Note:
They wanted to make a drama mystery series for all the ages, but instead they created the Tommy Wiseau of Star Wars."

My ideas and thoughts

So yeah… that’s how I feel I, and how it seems like many others interpret this… this… thing.

Now, that’s not to say that this amazing community of editors can’t remove a lot of what makes this show into a meme, and craft it into something worthy of two and more eyes and the attention span and love of a Star Wars fan.

I hope and think that with removing horrible facial expressions, dialogue that does not belong or is delivered badly, and structure the series to an actual mystery - I think you could hit a jackpot in terms of being “the faneditor that made something horrible watchable”. Say what you will about Star Wars - only this has been truly horrible. The Rise of The Sith, The Last Jedi and Boba Fett were issued and badly executed, but they weren’t horrible.

I wish you good luck, and I will be one of the first to watch this in a film format from you - if you have the courage, time and patience to do so. We will not fault you if you choose to give up.

I think I’ve sent PMs to all whom have requested. Please re-request if not.

Thank you all. ❤️

HotD - Film II is in the works, and with the quality of Season 2 thus far (and the cinematic structure of it) this edit is slowly becoming one of my favourites as I can edit it into something of a “The Dark Knight” of the Game of Thrones Film Edits.

Film X is also closing in on something of a finished edit, although I will have to rewatch and tinkle with the ending for at least another two weeks - many a time - to see how well it works or doesn’t work.

Just watched a 20-minute recap of season 1 with scenes to accompany it, and my few cents are the same as my thoughts before the series’ premiere;

the acting (oh my god, the acting), the dialogue and at times the location designs are what is really ruining current Star Wars and this series. Dialogue and acting has to be a dance between the two professions, but here it comes across as your drunk uncle dancing with your cat at your sister’s wedding. It’s just not good, but it’s hilarious to laugh at as you watch it unfold. Problem is, I don’t think that is what they went for? I might be wrong.

Either replace every current writer they have used twice now, on every single project, and hire writers from HBO, Apple and a select few good ones from Netflix.

However, I’d prefer them selling the entire thing to someone who wants to write quality rather than… you know, your drunk uncle dancing with a cat.

And for the budget this thing had, with most of the location designs they create and use… and costumes… I’m… speechless… It’s literally Disney Channel from 2012 sometimes. Like, I’ve seen clips that make me think “that could’ve been from Hannah Montana”.

May the coma be with you all.
