Are you fucking insane?

This is an absolute nightmare scenario

$40,000 would pay off all debts for me and my wife, and allow us finally catch our breath. The monthly payments have been annihilating us for years, and neither of our careers have recovered since COVID.

It feels like an endless tunnel.

Not knowing it was plant-based, I got a monstrous jumbo something-or-other burger from Monty's Good Burger in LA.

Honestly I almost freaked out at how good it was, and even went back to the place just to tell them it was the best burger I ever had.

It's the one thing pulling me west

The rich get richer / The poor get poorer / When our time comes / No guilt for the horror

or maybe

The planet is burning / We die of starvation / Abolish the wealthy / And claim our salvation

or maybe

One, two, buckle my shoe / Three, four, overthrow the 1% and bring about a socialist utopia, etc

Defederating is the wrong move.

I've had a cough for the last two months that's given me a hernia. Can't go to the doctor. It's fun here.

I'm a professional film and TV editor. In between jobs, I recut the Kenobi show from a weak 6-hour miniseries to a strong 2-hour movie (including full sound & score remixing via split-audio I managed to get).

If Mega is giving you download problems, consider installing jdownloader here. It's a really incredible downloader program that you'll probably wanna keep regardless.

My goal for this redux was to create a tight, entertaining adventure story from the original assets.

Unlike the Patterson cut, or other fan-edits, I did not add any external assets (with one tiny exception that I’m sure you’ll all notice, ha). Adding external assets from other films and shows (or original VFX) tends to break visual unity, and in my opinion is a glaringly obvious addition. The work by other fan-edits is very impressive, but would not fit with the goal of this project.

The Boonta Eve Redux is comprised of the original show itself, but pared-down, shaped, and made strong.

That said, it's important to note that no amount of re-editing can fix fundamental story problems. In my opinion, the entire existence of Kenobi is a rather unfortunate misadventure, driven almost wholly by Disney wanting to push content for content's sake. I feel strongly that having Kenobi and Vader encounter each other between RotS and ANH is, for many reasons, a critical mistake; likewise, having Kenobi and Leia encounter each other is almost as bad.

However, this re-edit addresses some of the most glaring oversights and mistakes of the original show, while highlighting its few true successes. Ultimately, I feel that it's a major improvement.

I'd love to hear your thoughts on the cut. Feel free to share, create torrents, etc.

Thanks for watching!

UPDATE: I've uploaded a more-compressed (but visually great) version of the Boonta Eve cut to the MEGA folder. It's just under 5gb and should download much more easily. I'm building a torrent encode currently and will link to that within the next day.

That's because Threads' entire userbase is baked into an app that almost everyone already has. It says absolutely nothing about the quality or featureset of the app, much less scalability and actual use.

Every single Threads user is displayed in your home feed, with zero option to only show content from people you're following. Hashtagging doesn't work yet, and most profile edits need to be done from your Instagram account, which clearly demonstrates that Threads isn't so much a Twitter/Mastodon/Bluesky competitor as much as it is an Instagram DLC.

I'm sure it's gonna do gangbusters since it's baked-in to the most popular social platform in the world, but... it sucks?

Many of our favorite spots went to the chopping block or faded out because of COVID. One of the questions I get asked the most now is "What's left? Is New York dead?"

No, NYC isn't dead, fuck you very much. Every major city got kneecapped for a few years, and the damage was heavy, but the people who made this city a beautiful place are still here.

As the energy and nightlife has been healing for the last year, we'll compile a list of fun and unique things to spend your nights on. Add your spots and tips in the comments.
