Synopsis:

The Ultimate Kryptonian Cut' tries to tell the origin story of Superman through his eyes, so this way, we will feel more "character development" in the story. We will know as much as him. Also, some action sequences were reduced a little bit to not make the movie seem like it's too chaotic, some motivations and plot points were changed to be as equal to my vision as possible and this way it will feel like a more heroic movie instead of tragic. This is a Project I began 2 years ago, but I had a lot of troubles to upload it to this web site and in the end I decided to not publish it...until now. 'The Ultimate Kryptonian Cut' also fixes some little issues I had with the original Kryptonian Cut, which had some weird cuts and the movie looked washed out. Now that I have seen the details of my first creation, I show you my fixed first creation finished.


Intentions:

We all remember 'Man of Steel', which to date has received mixed opinions from everyone. We have found people that say it's the Best Superman and Best superhero movie ever made, to others it's total garbage. I actually believe the film is decent, but I was disapointed with the final result. I was disapointed at how the story was developed and the way the movie was edited felt kind of slow, especially when we see Clark's Journey. So this way, it will seem more interesting. Also, yes, it's the movie that shows a good fight between Superman and his enemies, but I felt it was too noisy and chaotic at some points, so I tried to cut some little things to make the battles and action sequences less destructive. I can't do miracles, but I think it's way more watchable this way. The most important part in this Fanedit is the scene were Clark finally puts on the suit and decides to become Superman. This was my ultimate disapointment in the film because I was expecting such important scene to be in an iconic point, but instead it looks kind of random. So, in my Edit, Clark will put on the Suit when he feels he needs to.


Change List:

-Added a Man of Steel Logo at the Begining. No Titles at all. Similar to Batman Begins. -Colors were changed a little bit to look alive when the scenes include a vivid Sun or there is visible fire. Inside places have the original colours because of the poor lightning of the set. In my opinion, it's a very gray film. -Film opens with Clark saving the workers in the Oil Rig as we will see everything through his eyes. -Jonathan Kent does not die because of a Tornado. His death is revealed at the end of the film and the reasons are unknown. You can assume he had a Heart attack as the original. -When Clark asks what he was supposed to do when the kids of the bus were going to be drowned, Jonathan does not reply "Maybe". I thought it was kind of a douchey answer. I cut it and we continue to the part where Jonathan says Pete's Mom was scared. -Clark's Flashback were he is being beaten by kids was added to the scene of the Bar. I feel it fits better. Also, Clark does not destroy the truck. He respects his father's advice. -Krypton opening was moved to the part where Jor-El talks about Krypton's fate and was cut as much as possible to make it seem as a flashback. -Lois does not investigate Clark's past. In fact, she doesn't know his real name until the end of the movie where Perry introduces him to Lois. -Clark comes back home after Jor-El explains about his past. He does not put on the suit. -Clark puts on the suit after he talks with the priest in the Church. This way, it will seem like a more iconic moment. -Clark tries to Jump and unexpectedly, he "floats" but falls after that. He decides he could fly after remembering his father words: Keep testing your limits. -Lois will go with Clark to Zod's Ship because she wants to. Not because Zod wants her in the ship for no reason. -Removed all the parts where Lois calls Superman "clark". -Cut some little things in the Battle of Smallville to not make seem like Superman or Zod's sidekicks are causing too much destruction. -Cut some of the destruction from the scenes of the World Engine and the Jets trying to destroying it. -"Krypton had it's chance" was cut. I felt it made seem Clark very douchey. He is now decided to save earth and nothing more. -Another thing: The romance was cut because it had almost no chemestry, so... no kiss. -Some little things in the final Battle were cut for the same reasons above. -Zod trying to kill the people with his ray vision was cut a little bit to make it seem faster. The original scene was stupid. Those people acted like they had no chance to escape and the ray was going to them in slow speed. Instead, the ray will go to them as fast as possible. -2 years have past after the battle of Metropolis. -"You will help them accomplish wonders" speech was added at the end of the movie to give it a Dark Knight feel.


Additional Notes:

I used Sony Vegas 11 for this Fan Edit, but I made the first version 2 years ago in Sony Vegas 7. This project took 4 months to complete, but afterwards I decided to "remake" it, the base is very similar to my first edition, so it took me 2 days more.
