The Big Lebowski HD Television Edit Is Finally Done!
Posted by miketheeye@reddit | lebowski | View on Reddit | 51 comments
New stuff has come to light, Dudes! Over the past few months I’ve been peckin’ away at this thing and it’s finally done. I seriously exported the final file last night after the 4th watch through for an audio sweep adjusting EQ to make sure everything is nice and tidy for the holiest of holidays. It’s been an amazing process and I’m closer to the movie now than I’ve ever been.
Here’s the link where you can find the edit and some notes explaining some of the process and edits: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1eJTsIGkV3oS5j1QWNjqr-HEeDcX7dQqTRwemqEmOdR0/edit?usp=sharing
This is a faithful HD reproduction of the infamous TV edit. 'Stranger in the alps' and the like. Every audio and visual edit has been implemented as seamlessly as possible. There’s over half an hour of the film cut out of this edit, so there’s some iconic scenes missing, and some of the edits are harsh. But what is here are potentially new iconic lines, a different way to experience the film that’s technically canon and maybe even a drinking game. I’m definitely gonna add it to my movie night rotation!
And I wanna shout out this sub. Obviously Lebowski people are the best people, but you guys have made me laugh harder than I have in a long time. Truly amazing stuff. I know this will be appreciated by you guys.
Happy 4/20 Dudes!

Looks like you can look back on a life of achievement, on challenges met, competitors bested, obstacles overcome, movies edited.

Watched this and laughed to beat the band. Great way to introduce the show to one of your own little lebowski urban achievers, without exposing them to the most "fucks" per minute in cinematic history.
u/miketheeye is a good man. And thorough.

But how will we keep them down on the farm once they've seen the u/miketheeye version?
miketheeye@reddit (OP)
He has been watching! Parts, anyway... He loves the opening bowling scene, so he's gettin a good introduction to Dylan. And the Creedence.
cuhulainn@reddit
Well that's fucking interesting, man!
Had to look up that "most "fucks" per minute in cinematic history" tidbit. It seems to not be the most but is quite high (if you will), falling between Reservoir Dogs and Scarface. Blown away by Wolf of Wall Street though.

New shit has come to light. For some reason I thought TBL was the most and Goodfellas a close second, but I guess my thinking about this record had become extremely uptight! You got any Kahlua?
cuhulainn@reddit
Nah, but feel free to do a j.
