Transformers: Revenge of The Fallen – Gieferg’s Cut

a TRUE FANEDIT by Gieferg

This version of REVENGE OF THE FALLEN cuts out as much as possible of the stupidity, which ruins this movie (especially scenes involving Sam’s parents, Leo and Autobot twins), and other useless stuff, which does not serve any real purpose to create a faster and more serious cut of the movie.

INTENTION:
To cut out as much as possible of stupidity which ruins this movie (especially scenes involving Sam’s parents, Leo and Autobot twins), and other useless stuff which does not serve any real purpose to create faster and more serious cut of the movie.

  1. Hey Gieferg, I really enjoyed your cut but hated the quality of the video. Could you please upload the hi-res version of it? At one point the sound also drops drastically. Plus, could you do something about the song ‘The touch’ in the climax. It’s kinda cheesy. Overall, much better version than the original one. Please upload the dvd version of the film as soon as possible. thanks a lot.

  2. dear gieferg,

    thanks for cutting out so much crap (incredible how low standards in hollwood can get).
    i downloaded the two SL-DVD’s but am very bugged by the fact, that i had to switch
    discs in the middle of the movie. there would not have been a problem with releasing
    it on a DL-DVD. so, i re-encoded it to such and am very pleased to watch your cut all
    in one session the next time :)

    great work … keep it up, man !!!

    greets,
    santero

  3. First I must say that I watched only the avi version (not the 1.3 DVD release)
    Like Nishit_Singh the Stan Bush songs at the end bugged me.

    A lot of crap is gone which is good. However some crappy things are still there (Sam’s mother, the kitchen robots, the twins, Leo). But maybe it’s not possible to remove more without creating continuity errors.

    To be perfectly honest, I don’t really think those things are the real problem of the film. To some extend those things can be fun!
    In my opinion the film problem is simply too long! At some point Egypt I couldn’t stand watching the movie anymore. I had to force myself to stay till the end both with the original and the fanedit (even more with the original since it is longer).
    Maybe there’s a way to cut all the things that are not essential to the story to make the movie shorter.

  4. I just got through the movie, and I think this was a very good edit all around. There were a few audio glitches and slightly rough transitions which detracted from the experience a bit, but it was still a WAY better cut of the movie than the original. In addition to the small glitches (i.e. the audio temporarily disappearing for a fraction of a second), the transition in the end from the start of the Linkin Park song to Stan Bush’s “Till All Are One” was a little rougher than I’d have liked. However, everything else I thought was great.

    Also, given how much screentime the Twins had in the original cut, I was very amazed at how well the beginning of the movie works without them. The only change I’d make there is that maybe the scene where they switch from being an ice cream truck to individual cars at the base should be left in, since I felt that their appearance later in the film was just a wee bit too abrupt (the scene I mentioned would probably be just enough of an introduction that they aren’t a total surprise later).

    The nods to G1 like Soundwave’s voice and the implementation of “The Touch” during the last battle were very well executed and made the movie feel more enjoyable and nostalgic for me.

    Hats off to you, Gieferg. This is a superior cut of the film IMO, and to me proves that there’s a gemstone in the rough of Bay’s bloated, immature and sometimes downright illogical theatrical cut. I do hope that you will continue to polish this gem, because it shows lots of promise and I think that with enough refinement (and possibly Blu-Ray? *fingers crossed*) this could replace the original version of the film entirely. Keep up the good work!

  5. Oh yeah, also there were a few times (particularly during talking scenes, but also some action scenes) where the audio levels seemed weaker than in other parts of the film. I had the volume up pretty loud for most of the movie, but during the first scene with the Witwickies I had to turn it up even louder, as well as in some other scenes because the volume would drop down. Hopefully this can be corrected in a future release of this cut!
