Well, I've been looking through Youtube, and stumbled across this...

A recutting of the ending of Star Trek V, including clips from the previous 3 movies and using voiceover clips from earlier scenes to make "Kirk flees from angry floating head" into "pissed-off God makes Kirk's life flash before his eyes," if not something more. And new music winds up making the reunion between Kirk and Spock seem... better, somehow.

So yeah. That's cool.




...and then there are fans who do this:

...which is even cooler by far.

So, what are your thoughts, Junkies Guildies?... fellows? Can a fan re-interpret a stinking pile of cinema and salvage it? Or is it just something best left to a Director's Cut?

Well, there's always the Phantom Edit, though to be honest I'm not 100% sure that it was actually BETTER, persay.

Part of it is the fact that sometimes all the editing in a world can't save a bad movie...because it's just BAD.

I've never actually seen the legendary Phantom Edit, actually. Always meant to...

And yeah, no amount of editing or fancy photoshop can save shit - Uwe Boll movies, for example, are doomed to be shit for the rest of eternity.

Except for his two most recent ones, which are apparently the proof that Uwe Boll can actually do something good when he's not basing his work off of something else.

Or using German tax loopholes to earn shitloads of cash rather than make movies that could please the fans.
