Midweek Movie Free Talk
Have you watched any movies recently you want to discuss? Any films you want to recommend or are hyped about? Feel free to discuss anything here.
Please just try to provide fair warning of spoilers if you can.
I've been on a Fan Edit kick lately and last week I was raving about the Fan Edit of The Hobbit. I also mentioned that I want to watch The Matrix Revolutions Decoded so I did. And I am really glad I did.
I find the original trilogy just fine. The first movie is an absolute masterpiece, but found the other two to lose their footing a bit and I have a bit of problems following the story (even though I love movies with convoluted stories meant for rewatches like Memento or Inception).
This Fan Edit streamlines the plot masterfully and will definitely be my go-to for rewatches. Zion is toned down, Revolutions in general is almost not present and it ends on a somewhat more positive note. I don't want to spoil anything for people wanting to watch it so I'll leave it at a really strong recommendation.
The next watching project are the Fan Edits of Star Wars by HAL 9000. They seem to be considered the gold standard of Star Wars Fan Edits and I'm really interested in what the community came up with, especially with the prequel trilogy.
