Have you ever re-edited a movie or tv show into your ideal version ?

[Treadwell]

I put all the extra TV scenes into the theatrical Fast Times at Ridgemont High. It was a gift for a friend--his favorite movie.

So...what does one use to do this?!

DVD ripping software, the movie/TV show you wish to edit on DVD and Editing software.

In some cases, people actually take it up a notch by using 3-D modeling software for older TV shows that used model effects. An example can be seen in this clip from the original "Battlestar Galactica", where we see a shot of the Vipers and Shuttle landing on Kobol (which previously was not included). Some even use Adobe After Effects to enhance scenes that they feel should have used some sort of effect.

I thought Adywan's edit of ESB isn't out yet?

It was his quickie color corrected version of ESB, not the full edit he has been working on for years...

I once thought about putting pulp fiction in chronological order.

You and a lot of other people have. And someone already has.

I've wanted to do Memento in reverse to see how it works out.

I've wanted to do Memento in reverse to see how it works out.

Well, it'd be a bit of a pain, since the story's presented in a "U" shape timeline.

The special edition dvd of Memento has a easter egg that allows you to view the film in chronological order (with Teddy getting shot at the end and shown forward instead of in reverse). The film ends with the Polaroid of Teddy shot developing while the opening credits role.

Basically all the black and white parts play first- followed by all the colour parts in correct order.


Just google Memento SE easter egg for it.

I've been seriously considering taking the Bluray release of the OT when it comes out and re-cutting it to be as close to the original releases as possible. It's the closest I'll ever get to the originals in HD...

I forgot, I was also curious to see if I could takes episodes of "Smallville", remove Clark and make a Green Arrow show. Particularly the the flashback of his origin, the Toyman episodes and "Roulette".
