The Hunger Games
Synopsis: "In a dystopian future ruled by a totalitarian regime, resourceful Katniss and her partner Peeta represent their district in the lethal Hunger Games, a televised survival competition in which teenage contestants hunt each other to the death."

Edit summary: The first edit still has a lot of spastic 2-second cuts back and forth that can't be removed if you want any action sequences from the 2012 film. But I did try to clean them up a little bit, as well as fixing key scenes like the bakery and Rue to better reflect the impact from the book rather than the disposable hyperactivity of the movie.

All four movies have been combined into two longer films and slimmed down a little bit, fixing the rather ponderous pace the original movies had at times.

Ver6: Remastered
No Time To Die
Synopsis: "James Bond is enjoying a tranquil life in Jamaica after leaving active service. However, his peace is short-lived as his old CIA friend, Felix Leiter, shows up and asks for help."

Edit summary: Cut most of the movie and turned the one good act into a short film.

Ver6: Remastered
The Batman
Synopsis: "When the Riddler, a sadistic serial killer, begins murdering key political figures in Gotham, Batman is forced to investigate the city's hidden corruption and question his family's involvement."

Edit summary: This is a heavy re-work of The Batman - removing some of the retcons and combining it with Batman Begins to treat it as a prequel to the Christian Bale films rather than a series reboot. All unmasked face-shots of Robert Pattinson are stripped out and the character is re-cut as the classic playboy archetype rather than the awkward gaunt pale recluse that Pattinson plays.

The new catwoman is stripped out entirely, and the new Jim Gordon is turned into a nameless policeman, keeping the Batman Begins version as The Jim Gordon. The Batman version of Falcone is kept, treating the Batman Begins version as a nameless gangster. Parts of Batman Begins are cut out, rearranged, or recut as well to make the stories to flow together as seamlessly as possible. A few seconds of Dark Knight Rises are used as filler too.

Ver9: Remastered, minor scene adjustments
GoldenEye
Synopsis: "Pierce Brosnan takes his first turn as debonair MI6 agent James Bond, who -- with his sophisticated gadgets and signature Aston Martin -- investigates the destruction of a Russian satellite weapons base with the help of the massacre's sole survivor (Izabella Scorupco). Through brawls with the sultry and deadly villain Xenia Onatopp (Famke Janssen), Bond uncovers an international crime syndicate whose next target is London."

Edit summary: Cut a handful of scenes or partial scenes that interrupt the flow of the story and action, and part of the ludicrous tank chase.
Tomorrow Never Dies
Synopsis: "Pierce Brosnan stars as suave action hero James Bond in this continuation of the legendary 007 series, this time pairing the secret agent's continental charms with the fighting skills and intelligence of Chinese agent Wai Lin (Michelle Yeoh). The threat of World War III looms as media mogul Elliot Carver (Jonathan Pryce) pits China and Britain against each other to complete his global communications empire. But can Bond stop him in time?"

Edit summary: Cut part of the motorcycle chase to make it less long and absurd.
Killing Eve
Synopsis: "Eve - a bored MI5 analyst - and Villanelle - a talented, mercurial assassin - go head to head in a fierce game of cat and mouse."

Edit summary: Completely remove the stabbing subplot. Cut the terribly useless Season 3 & 4 and consolidate the previous seasons - stripping out Eve's husband side plot in Season 1 and fixing her poorly written lesbian obsession in Season 2 so it's conveyed in a less ham-fisted way.

Ver7: Updated projects to BluRay sources for easier loading
Ver8: Remastered
Wind River
Synopsis: "A wildlife officer, who is haunted by a tragedy that happened because of him, teams up with an FBI agent in solving a murder of a young woman on a Wyoming Native American reservation and hopes to get redemption from his past regrets."

Edit summary: Kept the laid-back pace of the main story intact, but trimmed some of the main character family life, and some of the flashbacks to focus on the core narrative without interruption. Some scenes are recut and rearranged for better impact.

Ver4: Remastered
The Gentlemen
Synopsis: "Mickey Pearson is an American expatriate who became rich by building a highly profitable marijuana empire in England. When word gets out that he's looking to cash out of the business, it soon triggers an array of plots and schemes - including bribery and blackmail - from shady characters who want to steal his domain."

Edit summary: Remove the constant interruptions from Fletcher narrating the story and let the scenes speak for themselves.

Ver11: Moved the running scene slightly forward for better narrative flow, and trimmed down the number of times Dry Eye taps his phone so it matches the dollar amount being discussed by the characters.

Ver13: Remastered
Battleship
Synopsis: "When a confrontation with alien invaders knocks out the Navy's main fleet, American and Japanese forces must work together to find a way to save the planet."

Edit summary: Made the main character a bit less of a screw-up, trimmed out some scenes that slowed down the plot but didn't totally remove the characters backstory, and put more focus on the boat battles - de-hollywoodifying it a bit by removing a lot of the "exciting" close up alien combat and flashy cgi.

Ver13: Remastered
Ambulance
Synopsis: "Needing money to cover his wife's medical bills, a decorated veteran teams up with his brother to steal $32 million from a Los Angeles bank. However, when their getaway goes spectacularly wrong, the desperate thieves hijack an ambulance."

Edit summary: Cut the rollercoaster-quality drone shots, cop cars randomly smashing into things, and tightened up the non-action scenes a bit

Ver3: Remastered
Girl Walks Into A Bar
Synopsis: "An all-star cast shines in this indie comedy about a typical night in 10 bars across Los Angeles, where former cop Francine becomes entangled with a group of oddballs, including a murderous dentist, an ambitious club hostess and a regretful father."
(Synopsis compliments of Netflix)


Edit summary: Heavily trimmed to focus on Carla Gugino's story and get rid of some of the other side plots that had worse acting or terrible dialogue. More of a short film now.

Ver9: Remastered
Feast of Love
Synopsis: "An Oregon town is the backdrop for this tale of men and women touched by love's inescapable spell: From hopeless romantic Bradley (Greg Kinnear) to Harry (Morgan Freeman), a local professor with the wisdom and experience to guide those close to him."

Edit summary: Major cuts to refocus the film on the relationship between Greg Kinnear and Radha Mitchell, while still keeping enough of the side characters and plot to fill out the film. This doesn't remove the sex scenes entirely, but does cut enough of them that the film feels truer to the title, rather than Feast Of Sex.

Ver9: Remastered
My Name
Synopsis: "A woman joins an organized crime ring and infiltrates the police as an undercover agent in order to find out the truth about her father's death."

Edit summary: The first six episodes are a slow burn that's decent so those are left intact. But episode eight had a completely different tone from the rest of the season so I trimmed that down and combined it with episode seven to make a more cohesive finale.

Ver3: Remastered
The Idol
Synopsis: "Jocelyn is desperate to reclaim her rightful title as the greatest and sexiest pop diva in America after a nervous breakdown disrupted her most recent tour, and Tedros - a notorious nightclub entrepreneur - reignites her passions."

Edit summary: Cut the entire Tedros storyline and made the first-episode plot a self-contained story.

Ver4: Remastered
Harry Potter
Synopsis: "An orphaned boy enrolls in a school of wizardry, where he learns the truth about himself, his family and the terrible evil that haunts the magical world."

Edit summary: This edit heavily slims down the eight-film series into a trilogy, although due to the flow of the narrative the first and third films feel a bit flat in the first hour. I also tried to remove as much of the bad writing as possible but there still are some hand-waving Deus Ex Machina bits by the author that an edit can't really fix.

The main goal was to fix the rather poor ending films and focus more on it being a fun magical-school adventure rather than a story fixated on a particular special boy. So I cut everything related to the details of the parents murder, mothers love, and any special abilities resulting from that aside from his scar warning him of impending danger. I also removed all mentions of mudblood or any other racial implications to keep the mood a bit lighter.

This heavily alters the timeline in places, so don't expect a story that's true to the books. I also toned down the teen angst of the later films, removing most of the romance, school dances, etc.
