Yeah i will push that version out with the new dlc i think...theryaney said:By the way, the alternate opening is pretty cool, and looking back it'll not make sense if the rest of the show is already made before the pilot is released.

What do you think?
Adabisi said:I'm only one episode in, but this looks like it will be a really cool edit. A couple of notes:
If the intent was to replicate a network scifi show like Quantum Leap, then stuff like "You're going to see some serious shit" would never have made it to air. But then we get into "The Reality Cut" territory, and let's just not go down that rabbit hole.
I thought the end of the episode got into the epilogue a little too much. A perfect place to cut it for a cliffhanger would have been:
"What the hell is this?"
"Breakfast."
Roll credits.
The way you have it, the end is more of a question mark than an exclamation point. You're left wondering "What happens next?" rather than "What the hell was that!"
Of course, I haven't watched any of the other episodes yet, so I may be completely wrong about this and how it would fit into the narrative. But I will say, really great work so far.

Episode 03 Back And Forthright
This is easily the smoothest episode so far. I loved the visual echo moments throughout, which is exactly what I wanted to see more of in Ep 2. It was structured quite nicely and a perfect ending. 10/10 for this one.
Episode 04 Two Heads Are Better Than None
This is where things start to get quite interesting, story-wise. The only real critique I have is that you should have made it a little more clear at the start where this takes place in the story's timeline. Yes I know that anybody who watches this will have seen these films umpteen times, but I'm a firm believer in a fanedit's narrative being able to stand up solely on its own. And this is where things get a slight bit confusing. All in all though a fun episode and I look forward to the rest of the series. 9/10 for this.
Sinbad said:Thanks Adasibi,
I hear what you're saying I wouldnt spend an inordinate amount of time revising it but im definitely open to some small tweaks, and I certainly wouldnt expect anyone who had already watched the edit to rewatch it. I am still getting requests for links pretty much everyday and a couple of suggestions have been things i tried but didnt quite pull off to my satisfaction at first go. as ive honed my skills a little since i wanted to have another go, I wouldnt radically change the edit but a little insert here and there or minor fix is something i will kick my self fornot doing when i no longer have the project files purely for my own satisfaction.
yes with that in mind I do agree...Adabisi said:Sinbad said:Thanks Adasibi,

I can understand, but people might get weary about watching your future edits if they know the next "new & improved version" is right around the corner.
Adabisi said:The only thing I felt was off was Marty's reaction when they first get to 2015 on the highway. He should've had the same reaction as Jennifer because, from the narrative that's been presented, all that happened to him so far was that he had a weird dream, woke up and everything was strange. His only experience with time travel has been seeing Einstein disappear and then reappear. He's way too calm in that situation for it being the first time that's he's time traveled (although, I'm sure we'll eventually find out that it isn't). His whole "Doc invented a time machine, Jennifer, don't worry about" dialogue was way too casual.
Other than that, it was great and I'm looking forward to the rest of them.
