I just finished watching it. It is a very cool idea. I found a few places where the time lines didn’t mesh, and the story lines had some specific conflicts, like the names of the space expeditions being different (Freedom for Armaggedon and Messiah for Deep Impact). But, otherwise, a very tense and enjoyable watching experience.

Interesting cut. Personally, I would have cut out every last bit of the cheeky “crew” comedy because it’s a pretty bad movie to begin with. It would have made it less bad without the “ha-ha” psychological interview scenes, etc. The Blade 3 recut took this approach to great effect and created a decent closing chapter.

This was a very good edit. I really enjoyed seeing both films together and it worked very well. I wouldn’t have minded the film being long (with more scenes from both movies) but again very good edit.
