EDIT: Edit x2
This will be available soon! here I have now compiled the cut list. The film is called The Desolation of Superfluous Narrative.
Ok here is the cut/change list in order. 64 minutes have been removed from the EE length of 3:06 mostly from stuff that was in the theatrical version making the length with credits 2:02:
-Gandalf/Thorin introduction in Bree removed - film starts with bilbo peering over a rock.
-Close up shots of Beorn as a bear removed
-All scenes of orcs removed from film except for the chase in the very beginning and orc interrogation.
-Beorn/Gandalf dialogue trimmed
-Bilbo playing with the ring/Gandalf/Galadriel telepathy removed before the company enters the forest.
-Gloin's Gimli namedrop removed
-All evidence of the Tauriel/Kili romance/ Legolas jealousy removed
-Orc interrogation/ auriels departure cut in length and placed before the company escapes
-Tauriel removed from later scenes inside the elf castle looking for the company for plot consistency
-Barrel scene cut/rearranged to the essentials - no orcs or elves appear in the escape. short and sweet and fun
-Dwarves go from meeting bard directly into being smuggled/gandalf scenes moved to later
-Legolas/Tauriel reunion chopped to essentials followed by Gandalf going to the tombs.
-Gandalf/Radagast convo cut short - going back to Laketown/Bard's epiphany about Thorin
-Laketown scenes cut to eliminate the fact that the dwarves were left there
-Song and dance spectacular added
-All of Gandalfs Dol Guldur scenes put together one place and chopped to make it better/orcs gone esxcept the army marching out
-Encounter with Sauron cut to make it less obvious that it's actually Sauron
-Dwarves giving up so dramatically edited to make it not seem so silly.
-Bilbo enters the mountan and is uninterrupted except for the scene with Bard and his son hiding the black arrow
-The Master knocking out bard cut
-The rest of the Dwarves never enter the mountain - the entire action extravaganza finaly is removed it's just bilbo and smaug.
-Smaug busting out of the cave cut because, well, he's covered in gold and that never happened her
-Vocal intro to "I See Fire" cut.
-Various othe short bits of lines trimmed for flow/consistency/necessity
new cuts:
-High fells are gone and all mention ofthem is gone from beorns convo
-Beorn talking about being inslaved by azog is taken out
-Bilbo flicking the spider web removed
-Bilbo losing the ring in mirkwood removed, he still kills the weird crab
-Tauriel entrance trimmed slightly to remove hints of interest between her and kili
-Cut invisible Bilbo clip when he is sneaking into the elf kingdom behind the party
-Cut Thorin line "not our only hope"
-The random laketown flight when they first get there is 1/2 removed. this is the scene im least sure of in my edit. I'm goingto leave it in and see how it works.
-Trimmed some lines and clips from Dol Guldur
-Removed Thrains whilhelm death scream and replaced it to a different more appropriate place in the film.

The title, is subjest to change and is something of a joke at this point, but the idea for the fanedit will be to get rid of all the baloney in The Desolation of Smaug, all the gold dragon nonsense, all the unnecessary emotional and story tie ins to lord of the rings, and the orc bullshit I can, and just make it an awesome movie overall. I will make this fit with my previous fanedit as much as possible "The Expected cut of an Unexpected Journey", which got pretty good reviews. This cut basically has the same goals as that one did. I have yet to view the extended cut of this movie, and only saw the theatrical cut twice a long time ago. The EE comes out here tomorrow and I'll pick it up then. I'm hoping to have it finished in a couple weeks. I'll keep this thread active about any changes
