At last! My fanedit of Resident Evils Afterlife and Retribution is DONE and ready for release!
Here's what's changed:
ADDED: Aztek Fan Edit Classics bumper to start.
CHANGED: Opening. It now begins with the scene from the end of Afterlife.
NEW: Opening credits.
NEW: "My name is Alice" prologue using voiceover from Afterlife and clips from the previous three films.
CUT: Wesker inquiring about lost sentries.
CUT: Extra shot of Alice emerging from air vent.
CUT: "Hey boys, is that any way to treat a lady?" The clones just perforate them buggers.
CUT: Wesker asking for damage reports on the facility.
RERRANGED: Osprey scene to get the dialogue to flow better.
CUT: "Last words?"
CUT: 40 second pan around of the interioir of the Osprey when it crashes.
REPLACED: "Six months later" title card.
CUT: Fade out before Alice lands in the airplane graveyard.
CHANGED: The airplane graveyard scene (and the beach) have been darkened.
CUT: Crows flying from the empty plane before Alice is attacked.
CUT: Fade out after Alice discovers the scarab.
CUT: Fade out before Alice and Claire continue travelling.
CHANGED: The tracking shots have been changed from green to red to reflect that (in this version) Wesker has gone rogue and the Red Queen is monitoring them.
CUT: "Technically it's called crashing."
REMOVED: Some digital artifacts/damage in the nighttime prison scene.
CUT: Luther's quip at Alice not being able to land the plane again.
CUT: "I have time to waste."
CUT: "Until we made a discovery."
CUT: "You don't trust me" exchange between Chris and Alice.
CHANGED: Darkened the shower room where the undead breaks through the floor to make it appear to actually be night.
CUT: Axeman walking through the streets.
CUT: Chris telling Alice they can't go back the way they went to the armory. You don't say?
CUT: Prison rooftop escape scene.
TRIMMED: Slow motion during Axeman fight.
CHANGED: The end of the Axeman fight with Claire killing it instead of Alice.
CUT: "Looks like Bennett made it" to make his fate more ambiguous (word of God, aka editor: he died).
CUT: "We have to search every part of this ship."
CUT: Entire Wesker encounter.
ADDED: Bits from the opening scene (the Ospreys approaching the Arcadia) and Jill walking amongst the Umbrella troops over Alice's speech.
INSERTED: Arcadia battle. It's primarily sourced from the scene in Retribution immediately following the opening credits, with a few rearrangements and a shot taken from the credits was added back in here. Slow motion was also added (again, from the credits) in a few spots near the end.
CUT: Entire "Suburbia" sequence. It worked to introduce Becky, but since we're following Alice, we really don't need to see her until Alice finds her.
CUT: Alice's line "Now the real question is..."
CUT: Alice preparing the blow the windows out of the Umbrella Prime control room.
CUT: Barry's line "Looks abandoned" in reference to the Umbrella ship graveyard.
CUT: "Do you trust her?"/"Put in the numbers."
ADDED: Deleted scene with Jill in the control room.
RECUT: The New York and Moscow scenes are now edited to appear to take place simultaneously.
CUT: Undead springing from the closet in the house before Alice finds Becky.
RECUT: The Moscow sequence is now peppered through the Suburbia sequence.
ADDED: Deleted scene with Ada and Alice in the house.
CUT: Ada hiding. We see her grab the gun, but not shooting out the floor in the house.
CUT: Alice being shot in the side. This went absolutely nowhere in the theatrical cut of Retribution. At all.
CUT: "Sweet ride."/"Well this is Moscow." What does that even mean?
CUT: Leon saying Ada "always has a plan."
CUT: Alice asking Barry and Leon if they'd "mind" shooting at their pursuers.
TRIMMED: The car chase a bit.
CUT: Alice and co. getting out of the car.
CUT: Super Licker bursting from the rubble.
CUT: Another instance of Alice being wounded.
CUT: Leon's "Told you she had a plan." Calm yourself, loverboy.
CUT: A bit of hangtime right before Alice and Jill start punching each other.
CUT: "I'm coming for you!" Good for you!
NEW: End credits.
REPLACED MUSIC: "Army of Me" by Bjork and "Not Your Kind of People" by Garbage.

Final running time is 145 minutes, or 2 hours and 25 minutes. As previously mentioned in the "In The Works" Thread, I'm including a deleted scene and the full Arcadia battle on the BD-25 and MKV versions of the edit. I'm also going to be doing a DVD-5 release that will split the film across two discs to better maintain picture quality.
The MKV version is already uploaded. The BD-25 is finished, but I'm trying to figure out where to put it, so that will be available in a week or so. I'll be submitting the edit to the main site tonight or tomorrow and everything will be available through the usual channels.
