Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1: The 90 Minute Wicked Edition
"Don't Hesitate."
An exciting 90 minute version of Deathly Hallows Part 1 that does away with four inconsequential subplots, some extraneous lines and scenes, and all but 10 minutes of camping, in the pursuit of a more whimsical, action-adventure oriented beginning to Harry Potter's grand movie finale.
Fanedit Film Name: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1 – The 90 Minute Wicked Edition
Faneditor Name: AEmovieguy
Original Film Name: Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Part 1
Studio Name: Warner Brothers
Genre: Fantasy/Adventure
Franchise: Harry Potter
Original Running Time: 145 minutes (w/o credits: 134 minutes)
Original Release Date: November 19th, 2010
Fanedit Running Time: 103 minutes (w/o credits: 92 minutes)
Fanedit Release Date: June 17th, 2011
Amount of time cut: 42 minutes
Intention: A focused, more broadly entertaining Deathly Hallows Part 1 narrative, satisfying casual fans of the Harry Potter movie series and maintaining its opening Act’s momentum. A more magical, action/adventure cut, as opposed to the original’s more introspective approach. To be viewed as the first exciting 90 minute hook of a three and a half hour single movie finale.
Edit Details:
- Video levels restored to match the look of the previous films
- New Opening: Snape’s meeting in Malfoy Manor opens the film.
- New Mirror Shard Introduction: Harry finds the Mirror Shard in Sirius’ room
- 4 major subplots removed:
1. Bathilda Bagshot
2. Godric’s Hollow
3. Locket’s “One-Ring” Properties
4. Ron Leaving
-- Ron’s struggle is now an internal one, dealing with his sense of self-worth compared to Harry and Hermione, both of whom now quickly figure out 3 of Dumbledore’s clues and carry the team through the first half of the film. Ron begins to naturally feel guilty (not angry) about being a burden for Harry and Hermione. The Locket scene is where Ron proves himself a valuable member of the trio; a figurative ‘return’ to form.
- 10 minutes of Camping/Middle restructured: Only 10 minutes of camping separates the end of the ‘Ron Splinched’ scene and the beginning of the ‘Silver Doe/Locket’ scene. All lines directly referring to excised scenes (Bathilda Bagshot, Godric’s Hollow, and Ron Leaving) and important plot points to the narrative of Part 2 (such as, “I open at the close” have been fit within the new continuity.
- Snatchers are no longer smarter than Bellatrix and the Malfoys when it comes to recognizing Harry.
- Scenes are cut that didn’t work (Zipping up Ginny) and/or that are unnecessary/over-explanatory/retreads (Ron confronts Harry at the Burrow).
- Trimmed/re-worked some lines and shots within sequences that were too long, unnecessary, and/or deflated the scene. (Examples: Dobby’s speech is now one line; Bellatrix’s slow motion knife is gone)
