![]() ![]() Running time: 3hrs 25min Release date: April 2015 Special Features: Digital copy IFDB: No special features that I know of either. It’s not a book-accurate edit.Beorn is completely gone and we still have Radagast and some of the Dol Guldur plotline intact. Spence is a veteran fan editor and his goal was to imagine what Peter Jackson might have made if they decided to turn the Hobbit into a single film. THE HOBBIT: THE SPENCE EDIT Out of all the Hobbit fan edits besides my own, this is probably my favorite and the most well-assembled. Running time: 3hrs Release date: January 2015 Special Features: Unknown IFDB: Not listed Possibly still floating around on torrents somewhere. Unfortunately, Killstein and his edit were both nuked off of the internet and I can’t seem to find a copy of it anywhere. I recall watching it and thinking it moved a little too quick for my taste, but others out there seemed to dig the faster pace. ![]() On a technical level, it is assembled with much more care than The Tolkien Edit. THERE AND BACK AGAIN: DAVID KILLSTEIN’S HOBBIT EDIT This was the first 3-hour edit to make headlines. Running time: 4hrs 30min Release date: January 2015 Special Features: Box art IFDB: Not listed Lots of sloppy cuts without regard for pacing or decent audio transitions. The editor stated that he did most of the editing “over the weekend,” which I can assure you is not a lot of time for a project this big. All of the footage from the Battle of Five Armies actually came from a pirated screener DVD, which looks awful on any screen. However, the audio/visual quality was quite poor. Released while the Battle of Five Armies was still in theaters, it received a lot of press for being the first fan edit of the Hobbit trilogy. THE TOLKIEN EDIT: This was the one that started them all. It’s an excellent site to join.tons of awesome fan edits can be found there (and not just for the Hobbit). I will also indicate if these are listed on Being listed on their Internet Fanedit Database (IFDB) is a big deal because they have to vet submissions and require a certain level of quality with fan edits. Something that I cut might still be in another version, and you might decide you like that one more! Obviously my own edit is my personal favorite, but there are many solid edits out there that have done different things with the source material than I did. Special thanks to u/DanielU92 for originally compiling a list of edits a few years back!įull Disclosure: I am the editor of the Maple Films cut aka J.R.R. Some edits will not be listed, such as Topher Grace’s fan edit, since no one besides Topher (that I know of) has actually seen it and does not exist anywhere online. This is not an exhaustive list, nor is it intended to be. That way it’s not as confusing or overwhelming for those of you looking for an alternate take on Peter Jackson’s Hobbit trilogy. But after seeing a post on r/movies the other day about yet another edit being released, I thought it might be helpful to provide a list of some of the best and/or most popular ones. That meant putting Batman more than Bruce Wayne right at the center, because that's the person who would be trying to solve this mystery.There are a lot of Hobbit fan edits floating around online. In doing that, I wanted to lean into the idea of making this a 'World's Greatest Detective' thriller. "And so you could see him evolve, and we could see him rise to the challenge. But I still wanted to make sure that we had Batman at the center, whose story was the main story, so that it was his character arc, but he had not already mastered himself," Reeves explained. "I knew that I didn't want to do an origin tale and I didn't want to do a story where you saw Bruce going through the trauma and then becoming Batman because that has been done brilliantly many times. ![]() The Batman club scene but with Feel Good Inc. The director previously revealed to Total Film why The Batman is more Batman and less Bruce Wayne. Reeves wanted his film to put Batman at the forefront and leave Bruce Wayne with room for growth. Pattinson doesn't really get to explore the duality of the character as much as previous actors, but it really works in the films favor. While watching the film, you can tell that The Batman is definitely more Batman heavy than Bruce Wayne. ![]()
