Synopsis:

David Haller is a troubled young man diagnosed as schizophrenic, but after a strange encounter he discovers special powers that will change his life forever.

Intentions:

This edit attempts to condense the first season of Marvel's "Legion" TV series into a movie, maintaining and highlighting some of its original themes and character arcs (especially David's, considering where the story goes in later seasons). The plan is to do a trilogy of movies with the whole series.

Change List:

The big changes: - To reinforce the foreshadowing of David's big conflict in later seasons, his personality has become more egocentric in this cut (when he's asked to think of someone he loves, now he thinks of himself instead of his sister, for example) and Syd's refusal to kiss him in the first act (and he kissing her nonetheless) was highlighted. - The score during the "silent scene" where they invade David's house was removed, now the whole sequence really is silent, - The sequence where imaginary English David explains the whole plot to the real American David was removed, but English David remains a thing, - The big thing sacrificed to get this runtime was episode 06 (the whole sequence in Clockworks in this episode has been extensively trimmed down, but Aubrey Plaza's musical number remains), - The sequence in the first episode where David leaves Clockworks and goes to his sister's house was removed, - Most flashbacks with David and Benny were removed or trimmed down, - Clark's big flashback with his family in the last episode was considerably reduced, - Kerry/Cary's flashback was removed. Enjoy!
