Legend: European Theatrical Cut Restoration
Original Title: Legend (1985)
Faneditor: kidjupiter92
Franchise:
Fanedit Type: Preservation
Fanedit Release Date: 1st December 2023
Fanedit Runtime: 94
Synopsis: After reconstructing the TV cut of Legend and finally replacing an old DVD I had of the Euro cut, I decided I wanted to update the 11-year-old HD transfer of the European theatrical cut using the Arrow Video restoration. This idea was also spurred on by the fact that Arrow Video had the footage for Euro Cut on hand and included bits and pieces of it in a bonus feature available on their set, but weren't allowed to release a restoration of the cut because of rights issues and no cooperation on the part of a certain House of Mouse. So I am glad to present the European theatrical cut of Legend restored.

Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers - The Precious Edition
Original Title: The Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers (2002)
Faneditor: DonkeyKonga
Franchise: Lord of the Rings
Fanedit Type: FanFix
Fanedit Release Date: 1st January 2024
Fanedit Runtime: 196
Synopsis: Two Towers is an amazing film. It is however sometimes a bit.. off. Helms Deep is absolutely amazing, but the Ents storyline go nowhere. I aim to adress the films story and pacing issues. This edit is far more intrusive than the Fellowship of the Ring.

Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King - The Precious Edition

Faneditor: DonkeyKonga
Franchise: Lord of the Rings
Fanedit Type: FanFix
Fanedit Release Date: 7th January 2024

Synopsis: Return of the King is in some ways the best film of the trilogy, and in other ways the worst films of the trilogy. Especially the extended edition. This edit is here to balance the extended edition out.

The Other Guys - The Peacock Cut
Original Title: The Other Guys (2010)
Faneditor: Jasonflippy
Franchise:
Fanedit Type: FanFix
Fanedit Release Date: 9th January 2024
Fanedit Runtime: 85
Synopsis: "The Other Guys," a buddy cop comedy set against the Ponzi schemes of the 2000's, starring Mark Wahlberg and Will Ferrell, directed by Adam McKay, could have been SUCH a great movie if it didn't end up so silly and underdeveloped. I have made our lead characters into good, intelligent cops we actually want to root for and chopped many of the extreme, ridiculous jokes. The movie is now tightly-paced and a much more enjoyable comedy with a real heart.

Faneditor: PanteraSteel
Franchise: Superman
Fanedit Type: FanMix
Fanedit Release Date: 5th February 2024
Fanedit Runtime: 248
Synopsis: When you watch this I want you to feel like WBD released a brand new 4 hour Blu ray of Superman without any new fancy VFX or anything. It is just a straight up re-edit utilizing all HD footage possible to drastically improve the movie. NO major changes, I don't want you to notice that I edited anything. I'm just trying to make the best film possible using all the available high quality footage. I almost want to call it THE SIMPLE MAN'S CUT.

Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace - Spence Final Cut
Original Title: Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace (1999)
Faneditor: Spence
Franchise: Star Wars
Fanedit Type: FanFix
Fanedit Release Date: 3rd February 2024
Fanedit Runtime: 118
Synopsis: After 15+ years of noodling, I've finally landed on a version of the prequels that I prefer. The main concept is to fix AOTC, the weakest link that brings down the other two, and make TPM lead into it, and ROTS build from it. The biggest problem I have with these movies isn’t necessarily the content. There’s some stuff I’m not crazy about, such as midichlorians and some of Anakin’s whiney, creepy behavior, sure. However, the biggest problem to me is in the minute to minute pacing. They just feel… weird? Off? Something’s not quite right in every single scene. The most egregious example is AOTC, where seemingly nobody talks like a human being, characters stand around clearly waiting for their cue, and much of the action mostly falls flat. Even worse, the love story doesn’t work, partly because I think they focused on it way too much. The dialogue between Anakin and Padme is shockingly strange, but the chemistry between the two actors is definitely there. Just letting them spend time together would have sold it enough. So I’m taking another crack at the Prequels, but I’m starting with AOTC, the biggest problem with the trilogy. Once I get that working, I can build up to it with TPM, and off of it with ROTS. The idea here is to go into every scene and remove that disjointed, stagey, unnatural feeling that permeates the film. Action will be pumped up and pacey, conversations will have that zing that they’re lacking, and the movie will move along at a steady pace. There’s a lot of PT edits out there, and I’m not the most technically accomplished editor to tackle them. However, I think my particular knack for action and pace (I’m aware of my strengths as well as my faults) will make these stand out.

Star Wars: Episode VIII - The Last Jedi - The Fox Cut

Faneditor: TheFoxMan
Franchise: Star Wars
Fanedit Type: FanFix
Fanedit Release Date: 8th February 2024
Fanedit Runtime: 122
Synopsis: Using Hal9000's edit as my baseline, I wanted to mainly fix the Leia Mary Poppins scene by making it appear Luke saves her by using The Force. This required a major reshuffling of scenes to make this work. Now Luke has one more heroic moment saving her sister rather than the ridiculous scene we got in theaters.

Watchmen 2009: The Squid Cut
Original Title: Watchmen (2009) • Watchmen: Season 1 (TV Show)(2019)
Faneditor: TriggeredPuppy
Franchise: Watchmen
Fanedit Type: FanMix
Fanedit Release Date: 3rd February 2024
Fanedit Runtime: 226
Synopsis: As we approach the 15th anniversary in March 2024, I'm immensely excited to release this new version of the 2009 Watchmen movie. At first, it sounded simple. Just add the squid back in. But I decided it was really an opportunity to expand the movie beyond that. Using voice cloning and footage from the 2019 sequel miniseries, I was able to add back in major plot points from the comic. And by inserting nearly the entire Under the Hood feature as an in-world 60 Minutes type interview, I've expanded the world and story significantly. I’ll go through both broad strokes and in intricate detail in other sections.
