    > Beyond Star Wars, an illicit cottage industry has sprung up to patch the holes in any given film’s digital representation.

    I've thought about making an Oppenheimer except all scenes are in chronological order and the cringe ones are gone Edition

      You jest but I know someone made a copy of all “The Hobbit” films spliced together, but removed all the made up portions. And removed all the Legolas bits, since he wasn’t even in the book. I think the total run time was something like 4 hours 15 minutes.

      The icing on the cake was how popular this edition was.

        What are all the "made up portions" of this work of fiction?

          I’m guessing parts that weren’t in the books
