This sounds like quite a different and interesting edit. How will you transition between the two movies?
There’s a wipe shortly after Luke gets his robotic hand and we join 3-PO and R2 approaching Jabba’s palace.
Hunted across the galaxy by the relentless empire, the valiant heroes of the rebellion fight for survival, while young Luke Skywalker finds himself drawn to the Dagobah system to learn the ways of the Jedi from the wise mentor Yoda. When his friends fall into the hands of Darth Vader, Luke journeys to the cloud city of Bespin to confront the Sith Lord, but is he prepared emotionally for what is to come?
Even as he comes to terms with the hard truths he faces in confronting Vader, Luke has no time to rest, as a reckoning must come for the nefarious gangster Jabba the Hutt on Luke’s home world of Tatoonie, a valiant rescue mission is carried out, but can all of Luke’s new training enable him in freeing Han Solo?
This fanedit combines the majority of the definitive middle act in the Star Wars saga with over forty five minutes worth of footage from Return of the Jedi to create a more complete viewing experience, with a different prologue and cliffhanger ending!
Changes are largely
-Vader communicating with the Emperor opens the film
-Majority of the first half of ROTJ plays out shortly after Luke receives his metal hand
-New ending is Luke receiving verification of his father’s identity and learning there is another Skywalker (but we don’t learn it’s Leia), film ends on Yoda fading away.

Agent Venom Strikes (this one is still a bit of a work in progress and might be altered eventually), basically I’ve retconned Tom Hardy’s Eddie Brock as Mac Gargan
Thanks.
I was contacted by someone over on Discord who’s going to help with the VFX on this.

Jeepers that’s awesome…never expected it to swerve like that
There’s actually quite a lot of Errors in this clip, which I’m aware of like, certain shots that shouldn’t be there as I didn’t switch of the layer in the timeline and other split-second frames that popped in, finally sound mix isn’t there yet
but I thought id post something so people have a feel of what I’m trying to doand Thankyou
Yeah, I wasn’t going to call out the technical glitches because it was clear to me it was just a WIP, I was fixated more on what you were doing right
Jeepers that’s awesome…never expected it to swerve like that
Very, very brief teaser on what is coming

Progress so far
-Worked out ‘reality warp’ sequence during a chess game
-Worked out a conversation between Mary Jane and Mephisto (very rough though, might take some suspense of disbelief)
-Developed a brief skirmish between Peter and Mephisto
Here’s a very short clip of Peter in Mephisto’s realm preparing to confront him

I’m thinking of maybe doing three or so takes on this, but so far I’ve settled on this list for a final season comprised largely of season 9-11 episodes, with some from season 12, as well as “Barthood” and “Holidays of Future Passed”

Additionally, I have had offers from people I’ve met on Discord to supply VFX effects…and I got a suggestion to use the devil from the movie Legend as Mephisto’s devil form.
My plan is to create as long a fan cut of the elusive Spider-Man 4 as possible, using footage from other Toby McGuire films (such as “Pawn Sacrifice”), and dialogue from the video games, Fox’s Ghost Rider movies, and the Marc Webb Amazing Spider-Man films for the ‘third act’
A lot of these ideas and concepts may change over time, and the edit might prove to be a bit rough, but that’s where feedback comes in
-Movie will be adaptation of “One More Day”, where Peter trades his relationship with Mary Jane to save his Aunt May from a bout with cancer.
-Footage from the 2002 Spider-Man Teaser Trailer Will Be Used As The Intro
-Peter now has a backstory as a chess protoge (just to help extend the length of the movie with some Parker drama)
-Deleted Scenes From Spider-Man 2 will be used
-Main villains are Mephisto and Electro (possibly Vulture also?)
-Nicolas Cage’s Johnny Blaze will make sporadic appearances throughout the edit
-Use Snake Eyes of G.I Joe as ‘Agent Venom’ For Possible End-Credits Scene, use footage from the movie “Venom” to explain it’s origins. Maybe ‘recast’ Tom Hardy as Flash Thompson and edit out all references to his name being Eddie?
There’s an ‘Ultimate Cut’ that does this…it’s available on SDN Editions website

Obviously I missed my Christmas release window, that’s because the DVD came a little late (sometime around mid-January), and I got caught up with other projects. I recently found the time the last few weeks, I pieced together the edit on it’s own, but then a different idea occurred to me, and I might end up combining it with Infinity War.
I’m probably going to do a combined 2-in-one edit where past Thanos doesn’t show up after Thor kills the present version , and when the world is restored by Hulk, there is no final showdown.
Is there any chance of you doing both versions? They both sound interesting.
I have been working on two versions actually, one’s about 4 hours long even without the final battle. Would you be interested in the Endgame portion on it’s own even if it’s just a time-travel yarn with no real sweeping battle?
Do you mean after Endor or just cutting out Endor?
Also, why you posting that here?
Because I thought it was a terrible idea?
Austin Powers: The Spy Who Shagged Me: Shaggedelic Extended Edition by ADigitalMan
The best Austin Powers movie, the extended scenes help to make some scenes I found unfunny kind of funnier, I think the Two-On-Two scene could have replaced the two Austins stinger as the credits scene as it’s the same joke anyway. Could have done without the needless outtake montage after “The End”. Overall a worthy watch if extensions are your thing baby!
But they’re also explicitly non-canon. And given the tone of the short, they should stay that way.
Doctor Who has no canon
Also, hate to break it to you, but the “tone” of the short sums up most of Nu Who since the comeback
Austin Powers: Shaggedelic Extended Edition by ADigitalMan
Austin Powers was one of my favourite movies to watch in my adolescence, one I could quote endlessly, that said I feel the deleted scenes don’t add much to the overall film, it’s nice to see them there, but I actually think these scenes could have done with an edit themselves…I’d have cut the final Number Two scene after he says “I bought the case” for example as it’s a funnier line to end it on than Austin’s counter-argument. I can actually see why they did cut that whole bit. Audio quality is fine and I didn’t notice anything jarring. Overall, it doesn’t reinvent the wheel, but it does give you a fresh excuse to watch a 90s cult classic once again.
I’d be down to watch that. Then again, I’d rather give it some time before revisiting it. Why Fatal Death, though?
Because I felt like it. They’re less ambiguous Doctors and can’t be misinterpreted as incarnations belonging to Morbius.
I#m enjoying these so far. I’m not a hardcore GOT fanatic but the short run time does make it an easy watch and I understand all the character arcs. I’m sure my GOT-obsessed brother will appreciate this more.
I have turned my attention to The Timeless Children, editing out everything to do with the Timeless Child revelation and replacing all the sequences with Brendan from the previous episode. Also removed the cliffhanger. I also replaced the Morbius Doctors with the ones from Curse of Fatal Death. Current runtime is one hour, six minutes.
Edit is now available to watch on the SDN Editions website.
I would not mind seeing this edit, send me a link!
