Franchise: James Bond

Moonraker: The LS Cut
Original Title: James Bond: Moonraker (1979)
Faneditor: LastSurvivor
Franchise: James Bond
Fanedit Type: FanFix
Fanedit Release Date: 1st March 2021
Fanedit Runtime: 118
Synopsis: Moonraker is the film that famously sent Bond to outer space. After the success of The Spy Who Loved Me, the producers wanted to go one step further and go even bigger. That, combined with the obvious influence felt by successful films like Star Wars and Close Encounters of the Third Kind, led to one of the most successful but divisive films in the series' long history.

A View To A Kill: The LS Cut
Original Title: James Bond: A View To A Kill (1985)
Faneditor: LastSurvivor
Franchise: James Bond
Fanedit Type: FanFix
Fanedit Release Date: 1st June 2020
Fanedit Runtime: 124
Synopsis: A View to a Kill is often classified as Roger Moore's one outing too far - in other words, it's the Bond film where he's too old to play the part. However, that in itself has never bothered me - why can't we have an older version of Bond anyways? But there's little doubt that A View to a Kill is not a perfect Bond film. From the ill advised use of the Beach Boys song "California Girls" during the opening ski chase, to the over use of sexual innuendos which even for Moore are a little too much, to the inconsistent quality of editing and choreography for some of the fight scenes, there's still plenty to fix here for a faneditor.

Licence Revoked
Original Title: James Bond: Licence to Kill (1989)
Faneditor: LastSurvivor
Franchise: James Bond
Fanedit Type: FanFix
Fanedit Release Date: 1st March 2020
Fanedit Runtime: 111
Synopsis: After the success of Timothy Dalton's first outing as James Bond in The Living Daylights, anticipation was high for the follow up. However, with a more ruthless take on the character and more violence which caused particular trouble in the UK market where it became the first Bond film to receive a 15 rating, Licence To Kill did suffer somewhat at the box office. It was still a hit, but due to legal issues it would be the last Bond film for 7 long years and the last Dalton Bond film. It's a shame, as the film on the whole has a lot to offer. Dalton is terrific as Bond, arguably the closest anyone has got to playing the character as Fleming wrote him, and Robert Davi's Sanchez is one of the most realistic and finest villains in the long history of the series. However, the film is not without its problems. Considering John Glen is an experienced Bond director, the film feels somewhat clumsy at times, particularly in some of the editing and most noticeably in the performance of Talisa Soto as Sanchez's girlfriend, Lupe. Also, such is the serious nature of Dalton's Bond, the few attempts at humor do not work that well.

Franchise: James Bond
Fanedit Type: FanFix
Fanedit Release Date: 1st November 2015
Fanedit Runtime: 126
Synopsis: This edit emphasizes Bond’s character arc of learning to see the big picture. He is a new 00, but not a rookie agent or a young man. Action sequences are trimmed and the romance is streamlined in an attempt to focus the story.

On Her Majesty's Secret Service - The LS Cut
Original Title: James Bond: On Her Majesty's Secret Service (1969)
Faneditor: LastSurvivor
Franchise: James Bond
Fanedit Type: FanFix
Fanedit Release Date: 1st August 2015
Fanedit Runtime: 127
Synopsis: Ian Fleming’s 007 gets a new lease of life in the form of newcomer George Lazenby, as Bond finds himself on a mission to Switzerland which could lead to the final capture of Ernst Stavro Blofeld, the head of Spectre. Obtaining the information on Blofeld’s whereabouts however, comes at a cost, particularly when it derives from the head of a European Crime Syndicate, the daughter of whom, becomes part of a deal which will have unforeseen personal consequences for Bond.

Thunderball: Warhead Edition
Original Title: James Bond: Thunderball (1965)
Faneditor: Ranger613
Franchise: James Bond
Fanedit Type: FanFix
Fanedit Release Date: 1st July 2014
Fanedit Runtime: 99
Synopsis: Thunderball really is Connery's last great performance as 007 before he completely checked out of the role. It's the last one where he really owns the film and proves why he is still regarded as the best actor to ever play 007. It's also full of exotic location shots, great music and one of the most famous villain plots in the series, involving stolen nuclear warheads but the film itself has always been criticized, mainly due to a plodding pace, the bulk of which is due to some overlong underwater sequences. Thunderball failed to become the "best bond ever" as its theatrical tagline promises because it almost feels rushed, as if the editing was unfinished in certain instances. Well, now the editing is finished. Almost no major scenes or sequences have been removed but almost every scene has been trimmed for pacing, resulting in a faster film with an enhanced narrative.

Icarus
Original Title: James Bond: Die Another Day (2002)
Faneditor: LastSurvivor
Franchise: James Bond
Fanedit Type: FanFix
Fanedit Release Date: 1st January 2013
Fanedit Runtime: 110
Synopsis: Die Another Day should have been celebration of everything good about the James Bond franchise. Unfortunately, in trying to throw everything but the kitchen sink at the screen in celebration of 007's 40th anniversary, director Lee Tamahori and the producers ended up with an unfocused movie, riddled with poor innuendo jokes and some ill-advised ventures into the more fantasy CGI arena. The hope with Icarus, is to redress the balance and uncover what I believe is a genuinely good old-fashioned large scale Bond adventure. No invisible car, no CGI tsunami surfing heroics, the poor jokes removed, Icarus attempts to give Pierce Brosnan the Bond swansong he deserved.

Synopsis: When a beautiful human-alien hybrid (Henstridge) escapes from captivity, a special team tries to exterminate her before she is able to fulfill her purpose: to mate with a human male and produce offspring that could destroy mankind.

Skyfallen
Original Title: James Bond: Skyfall (2012)
Faneditor: LastSurvivor
Franchise: James Bond
Fanedit Type: FanFix
Fanedit Release Date: 1st November 2014
Fanedit Runtime: 118
Synopsis: The purpose of Skyfallen is purely to streamline this 50th anniversary movie in an attempt to tighten the pacing somewhat. Also, it's to rein in some of Bardem's overacting in the part of the main villain, Silva, and hopefully make him a bit more threatening in the process. Subtle edits are also attempted to give it that "classic" Bond feel, including use of music from other Bond movies.

Franchise: James Bond
Fanedit Type: FanFix
Fanedit Release Date: 1st March 2023
Fanedit Runtime: 112
Synopsis: Live and Let Die, the Goldilocks version: tempo is dialed up (no more looking at your watch during the boat race), jokes and stupidity are dialed down, Bondgirls are less bumbling, sheriff is mostly removed, and nobody pops like a balloon.

Tomorrow Never Dies: Tomorrow Never Lies
Original Title: James Bond: Tomorrow Never Dies (1997)
Faneditor: lapis molari
Franchise: James Bond
Fanedit Type: FanFix
Fanedit Release Date: 1st April 2021
Fanedit Runtime: 107
Synopsis: James Bond, in Brosnan's second adventure, is as much a boy with toys as he is a dinosaur from the Cold War. We meet media mogul Carver who will push countries to war if it sells more newspapers. After Bond secures nuclear missiles in the outstanding opening sequence, he finds a GPS encoder and an ex-girlfriend. The trail leads him to Asia where he teams up with Chinese spy Wai Lin. Together they must find a stealth vessel and stop the UK from declaring war on China. This fanedit restores K.D. Lang's song to the opening credits (Sheryl Crow now plays over the closing credits). The edit is faster paced, with fewer lame jokes, less wooden acting, and fewer machine guns.

The World is Not Enough: Millennium Edition
Original Title: James Bond: The World Is Not Enough (1999)
Faneditor: lapis molari
Franchise: James Bond
Fanedit Type: FanFix
Fanedit Release Date: 1st December 2020
Fanedit Runtime: 105
Synopsis: James Bond's 1999 adventure, The World Is Not Enough, is a mixed bag. Interesting ideas and a largely coherent plot, buried under an overdose of 1990's action flick, Roger Moor-ish one-liners, and too much effort to misdirect the audience as to who the main villain is. Brosnan plays Bond much closer to Daniel Craig's roughness than to Roger Moore's suaveness. But he's given so many cheesy Moore lines that this Bond feels tediously immature. This can be improved!

The Man With The Golden Gun: Less is MOORE Edition
Original Title: James Bond: The Man With The Golden Gun (1974)
Faneditor: MusicEd921
Franchise: James Bond
Fanedit Type: FanFix
Fanedit Release Date: 1st April 2020
Fanedit Runtime: 107
Synopsis: The Man With The Golden Gun is now taken a little more seriously, which means no silly karate fight outside of the karate school, a shorter boat chase without the annoying kid selling an elephant statue and most importantly, no J.W. Pepper (which unfortunately meant losing the entire car chase).

N/A
Live and Let Die: Less is MOORE Edition
Original Title: James Bond: Live and Let Die (1973)
Faneditor: MusicEd921
Franchise: James Bond
Fanedit Type: FanFix
Fanedit Release Date: 1st April 2020
Fanedit Runtime: 93
Synopsis: Roger Moore's first foray into the spy world of Bond was a pretty good start in terms of seriousness, but some of the outdated slang and J.W. Pepper really kills the feeling of this being a classic James Bond movie. Also, the boat chase was like 20 minutes long.

N/A
The Living Daylights: Who Do You Trust?
Original Title: James Bond: The Living Daylights (1987)
Faneditor: lapis molari
Franchise: James Bond
Fanedit Type: FanFix
Fanedit Release Date: 1st December 2019
Fanedit Runtime: 117
Synopsis: James Bond changed in the 1980s. With the retirement of Roger Moore and introduction of Timothy Dalton, we transition from action movie with-a-wink to spy thriller. Well... mostly. Dalton, inspired by the novels, presents a colder, more cynical Bond. His approach to win the confidence of a beautiful woman behind the Cold War's Iron Curtain, reminds of Richard Burton's performance in the Spy Who Came In From The Cold. Perhaps the filmmakers feared that changing Bond overnight from the suave, cheery gentleman to a cynical smoking alcoholic, would feel as jarring to the audience as dislocating your shoulder. Perhaps they were right to fill Dalton's first adventure with comedic moments. In hindsight, however, we know the audience responded just fine to the comparable transition from suave and jocular Pierce Brosnan to steely-eyed and cynical Daniel Craig.
