Cameron Samurai

I am now working on a brand new version of this edit, I found myself combing over the original, rather messier version lately and realized I could tell the story in just about the same length of time as some of the theatrical TNG movies. The current draft sits at 102 minutes.

I used only four of the ten episodes in this season, many things already established are usually recapped in exposition throughout the episodes I’ve used, and the focus is balanced between the Dominion threat, Jack’s secrets, and the looming threat of the Borg.

All of the codas at the end of the tenth episode have been removed to tighten pacing and there is a brand new alternative ending.

Change List

-Modern Star Trek Logo
-A long-distance shot off a ship in space, exactly like how episode one begins, the shot makes it difficult to make out at first, so you can imagine it’s the Titan
-We then cut to footage from the episode “Imposters”, and Ro and Picard making plans to deceive the Changelings
-The remainder of “Imposters” plays out and we cut straight to the next episode with Picard and Jack talking in the bar
-After Picard is informed of an arrival and he takes one last drink, we cut to the next episode and The Enterprise D crew reunite to discuss the Changeling threat and Jack
-Jack and Troi have their meeting, Troi learns the truth about the mysterious red door.
-Remaining two episodes play out until Picard welcomes Jack aboard the Enterprise-D.
-Added Guinan bar scene from season two
-Jack joins the Enterprise G
-Final shot is of the Enterprise D and Enterprise G soaring through the starship graveyard.
Completed:

This is the ST film Generations edited down to precisely 46 minutes, the standard length of an episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation. I did one take of it using OTOY’s footage, but I wasn’t very happy with the quality, I was leaving too many things open ended and I wanted to rebuild it and tighten the bolts, and I feel I have seceded this time. There is no OTOY footage this time around, and I think it’s a much more polished product as a result, while still allowing space for experimentation.

In this edit:

-No HMS Enterprise
-No emotion chip arc with Data (except for one scene where it’s necccersary and a Captain’s log entry)
-No Christmas dinner with the Picards
-No Enterprise D destruction/crash landing on Veridian III.
-Kirk lives and saves the Enterprise
-Horseback conversation now a holodeck sequence at the end of the episode.

Ncuti Gatwa’s second, and final, series of Doctor Who featured some of the show’s career best offerings, but, as is typically the case, some of the worst episodes always end up being the finales.

This edit of The Reality War takes the final ten minutes of the story and does away with unnecessary exposition, one-sided boss battles, horrendous gaslighting, puts the power back in Ruby Sunday’s hands, and ends with both her and The Doctor ready for another adventure, to be told another time.

Changes:

1. Removed Ruby’s confrontation with Conrad, the infant harbinger is unguarded

2. Omega appearance and final battle completely cut

3. All of The Doctor and Belinda making fun of Ruby and the drawn out conversation in UNIT Tower figuring out whatever the hell Poppy is supposed to be has been removed. When Ruby makes the wish, she resets reality, we cut straight to The Doctor waking up in Belinda’s garden and he finds her safe with Poppy. It is now Ruby who is responsible for rewriting Belinda’s reality.

4. Merged a couple of individual scenes together so The Doctor is once again travelling with Ruby at the end of the episode, only to be interrupted by The Thirteenth Doctor warning of an incoming time schism caused by The Doctor…we end on that cliffhanger.

5. Billie Piper’s credit removed from ending

Wow, this sounds really intriguing! Is it still available?

It is indeed

I have pieced together from numerous sources (official Big Finish and fan made animations, BBC approved minisodes), a full length story that sees the Seventh Doctor give his life to end the time war and regenerate into Paul McGann, all without using a CG snake Master or being gunned down by gangsters. There are two versions of the edit, the second comes with a few bonus surprises bolted on to the beginning and end of the edit using footage from the Channel 4 drama It’s A Sin and an unused behind the scenes featurette on the comedy/drama Press Gang, the reasons for which will become clear when you see it.

This was a lot of fun to edit, and one some would think would be almost impossible to pull off, but somehow I managed it, I took all three feature length 60th anniversary specials and gutted them to turn the whole thing into a short 58 minute adventure using just the 14th Doctor and Donna. No bi-generation.

Most of the edit is just The Giggle, with the opening act being the finale of The Star Beast. The spot I chose to begin the adventure still works well as a primer for the story ahead. The new ending was shockingly simple to pull off, I don’t want to spoil it, but you can make a pretty good guess at how the crisis is resolved, all it took was a very quick scene swap.

Already working on revisions

Peter and MJ’s slow dance at the end of the original film has been reinserted and now comes before the scene with the giant web in the park

TIMELINE OF EVENTS

-Spider-Man 3 titles play

-New intro scene: Crooks raid Bank, Spidey catches them in a giant web

-Peter’s opening narration partially cut (this is to avoid repeating shots of the web swinging since they’re all used for the final swing later)

-After Peter refers to MJ as the ‘girl of his dreams’, we cut to MJ’s apartment where she is confronted by Harry

-Peter and Aunt May’s conversation happens, moved Sandman and Police department scenes to just after this

-Moved Peter and Harry’s first fight to later in the film

-Moved Mary Jane’s opening night to after Flint’s accident

-Removed references to the Crane in Peter and MJ’s talk at Peter’s apartment

-Daily Bugle scene trimmed, now ends with Peter joking to Brock he climbed a flagpole to get the pictures

-Removed parade and Peter and Gwen kiss

-Dinner scene with Peter and MJ scaled back considerably, less ego-fuelled grandstanding from Peter and MJ is more upset about Gwen and her own insecurities

-Removed the symbiote bonding with Peter as he sleeps in his costume

-Peter telling May he can’t put a wife before himself is moved to just after Peter drives MJ away when she visits him to talk about Flint

-The black costume is now just another suit Peter wears, it’s origin is unknown, but Spidey makes new suits for himself all the time in the comics

-Mary Jane’s decision to call Harry and hook up with him has been cut, instead she calls Peter and meets him at the park. At Harry’s prompting, she tells Peter what he’s been doing with her, sending Peter into a rage.

-Peter and Harry’s conversation at the diner is cut, except for the part where Peter sees Harry in the window and Harry winks at Peter

-Inserted shot of Spider-Man perched at the cathedral before he goes to confront Harry

-Peter confronts Harry at the Osborn mansion, Harry referring to Peter as “Mr. Key to the City” is cut

-Moved Peter and Ditkovitch arguing and making up to after the Harry confrontation. Peter ditches the black suit and tries to call MJ.

-Moved Harry using the goblin serum to just after Harry, now scarred, wanders around his mansion, Norman’s serum ‘rejuvenates’ him and heals his scarring.

-Norman telling Harry he’s ‘taken his eye off the ball’ (wasting his time manipulating MJ), and to get back to avenging him. All shots of Harry’s accident from earlier and him in the hospital during Harry’s ‘recollections’ have been cut

-Mary Jane calls Peter, asks him to meet up with her. She wants to put things right. Peter meets up with MJ at the club, they reconcile, and dance, then go to the park and make out in the giant web

-Harry’s first fight with Peter in the movie moved to just after the scene in the park, it is now their final confrontation.

-Sandman takes people hostage attempting to get money for his sick daughter. Fight between him and Spidey is quite short due to Venom and Harry being absent from the fight, but it still allows Peter to have closure with Flint. Some footage from “Godzilla (1998)” used here

-Harry’s recovery in hospital moved to just after Peter and Sandman’s conversation

-Peter and Harry spend some quality time at the mansion

-Spider-Man saves Gwen Stacy from the rogue crane

-Peter meets Stan Lee

-Final swing

Been working on a Spider-Man 3 rebuild lately, the goal being to reduce less of Peter’s egomania about being Spider-Man, now the tensions with Mary Jane come from basic misunderstandings and MJ’s own feelings of insecurity that Peter becomes increasingly aware of in a more natural way.

The other major difference now is that there is NO symbiote or Venom. Sandman and Harry are the only antagonists, I scale back on Harry quite a bit in this edit, the amnesia angle now doesn’t kick in until the very end of the movie, I save him for ‘big’ moments such as forcing Mary Jane to kiss him

Peter reconciles with MJ in a more romantic way, not the heart-wrenching ‘last dance’ where you weren’t sure if they were together or just friends (at least until No Way Home put that to bed), hence ‘less uncertainty’

Lastly, I decided to end the movie with Peter saving Gwen from the rogue Crane, we cut to credits after Peter bumps into Stan Lee.

Still in the midst of working out where goes what, I’ll post updates as I go.

Going to drive the usual suspects crazy because it hasn’t been cancelled except claims to the contrary. I love it.

It’s dead in the minds of the public

“everything has it’s time, and everything ends”

Funny how every fans loves Sarah Jane yet fail to truly honour those words put into her mouth

These fans need to obsess over something else.

This edit is once again available

This is my latest attempt at a series of edits based around the Power Rangers Hexagon concept, this time I’m sticking closer to Amit Bhumik’s notes for the pitch as I reasonably can and building the series with many episodes of Power Rangers Ninja Storm as the skeleton, as Bhumik had intended them to be the group the planned Hexagon season would largely focus on.

The concept of Hexagon revolves around a high-tech organization run by Tommy Oliver and Billy Cranston, Tommy and Billy use the Hexagon, under the guise of Cranston industries, as a front to enroll and mentor new teenagers to become future Rangers. Along the way, various alien factions working either for themselves, the armada, or Robo Rita, are determined to conquer the Earth and it is up to a new band of heroes, the Wind Academy Ninja Rangers, to assist the other worldwide Ranger groups in their efforts to combat the Armada, little knowing there is treachery afoot…

First episode is currently available.

Edit is finished, not a perfect one mind, but servicable

An update

Decided to use an additional nine minutes from “A Tent Situation” to introduce Tracy and bring more redemptive closure to Gary’s story as well as set up Ash’s decision to resume travelling after winning the championship.

A few years ago I fan-edited the last act of the movie Pokemon 2000 (“Power of One”) into a TV-length episode. Now I have approached the edit again and am turning it back into a feature, making use of other episodes from the Pokemon series to give it a more conclusive feel.

What I did to make Pokemon 2000 more of a climax was take a fraction of the closing arc of the Silver Conference (the battle with Gary) and place it at the start of the movie, and with some editing, have Ash come across as the winner of the Johto tournament rather than just a qualifier for the finals. Then, after he and Gary make up and part ways, I used footage from exactly two seasons earlier (“A Tent Situation”)

I left the movie largely alone after that, up until the very end, where I use A.I to have Ash finally return Misty’s feelings, and from there use the unused Mewtwo Strikes Back trailer footage animation to indicate Misty has a daughter in the future with Ash with Westlife playing. To avoid a repeat of Westlife’s performance in the end credits, I used the last few minutes of the Mewtwo Strikes Back ending credits as a substitute.

Edit is currently going through test renders, but I’m pretty happy with it so far.

Last two episodes are available.

When Doctor Who returned from it’s 18-month hiatus in 1986, it came in the form of the 14 part serial Trial of a Time Lord, a story all about The Doctor being tried for interfering in the affairs of other peoples and planets, with his very survival at stake. It also provided meta commentary for how the programme was being tried in itself by the BBC.

Colin Baker was sacked shortly after this series transmitted. He had been offered a four parter at the top of the 1987 series to take his bow, but he refused, leading to his successor Sylvester McCoy to stand in for him with a wig attached and plenty of VFX hocus-pocus smoke’n’mirrors providing a regeneration.

Now…let’s explore an alternative universe where Colin did accept a four-part send-off…what exactly would it resemble?

Suppose also, that, due to budget cuts, the BBC could not celebrate Doctor Who’s twentieth anniversary with The Five Doctors at the time…but in order to give Colin’s last story a major boost, they commissioned a multi-Doctor reunion story to encircle and support Colin on his way out!

Yes, this edit is a mix of The Five Doctors and The Trial of a Time Lord. With whole scenes repurposed, there’s a new parallel narrative with twists, turns, red herrings, this edit will keep you guessing right 'till the very end!

All four parts will be released across four consecutive weeks in the month of December, with part four dropping on Christmas Day!

Schedule

Part One…December 4th
Part Two…December 11th
Part Three…December 18th
Part Four…December 25th

DM me for Part One

Yeah, what can you do with something as short as this? Both a little, and a lot surprisingly.

As the title suggests, this is a version of the minisode that aired as part of Children In Need night 2023 around the time of Doctor Who’s 60th anniversary. The minisode drew the ire of a lot of fans mostly for it’s controversies with Davros and the reasons behind it, but that aside, it was riddled with bad and unfunny puns. I can see what they were trying to do but they leaned too far into farce…luckily there’s just enough material here to salvage the special into something resembling ‘proper’ Doctor Who.

I borrowed a couple of other fan edits from Youtube to help with the presentation, mostly just the opening titles and ‘next time’ for Star Beast, but other than that every other cut is mine.

Removed

-Castavlillian’s ‘Kaled Anagram’ pitches

-Any time Castavillian makes a note of things that are eventually attributed to the Daleks (except for The Doctor naming them)

-The Doctor does not supply Castavillian with the Dalek plunger, he just leaves, the idea is that the plunger is entirely Castavillian’s own idea.
