added reddit buttons to fanedit listings
I've added a button to fanedit listings that will allow you to automatically draft a reddit post that contains your edit information, neatly formatted in a nice table. here is an example of what it can look like https://www.reddit.com/r/fanworx/comments/1u4vgf5/harry_potter_and_the_hunt_for_horcruxes/? it includes a lot of information and contact links. I also added a simple function to the site code to handle email links with a template. like... the email button works fine on the site, but sites like reddit parse email addresses and won't allow automatic subject and email body, so i made it so if a user visits fanworx.org/fanedit/email-redirect/(fanedit id) it will then redirect to their email with a new message all filled in ready to send.

X-Men Dark Phoenix - Fan Edit
I've been thinking about one thing; How could I make Jean more conflicted, easy answer, re-add the deleted trailer dialogue of her telling magneto "when I lose control bad things happen, to people I love, but it feels good"... that last bit is key... she feels conflicted, we get that in X-Men TLS I think but not in Dark Phoenix... I want that, I want a hero we struggle to root for, we go from scared girl to "manipulated by a space entity" but we need that ramp to the manipulation..., I also have one question: I don't know VFX but I do know Captain Marvel has a space flight sequence and I almost wonder if... could you realistically, construct a 3d model of Jean flying and rotoscope it onto Captain Marvel (change colors and such) but make it look convincingly like this is Jean defeating the space intelligence? Obviously you still have to come back down to earth... but you could have her go from the train, fly up fight the space entities with epic music then come down and fight the last remains for the final climax with Vuk... maybe a new VFX shot there so its not just spinning purple particles... but hmm... But wait the original ending had her succumbing to the Phoenix and aliens and sending out a blast... so wait... that would require VFX but that could also reuse footage of her in Appoclypse... hmmmmm I'm getting ideas now... I'm gonna edit a crude concept of this and see how it flows (obviously no music fixes or anything... but I've got an idea.) I might have an idea... (obviously would still need VFX to make it convincingly work and music and some cast shots... but... Hmmm

Mission Impossible: Dead Reckoning Part 2 - The Prism Edit - Discussion
The edit has changed a lot since last posting here Dandy98 has been resourceful in realizing I could cut the entire first 30 mins pretty much and still end up with a good opening. So I let him do that, and then messed with it and we constructed an opening where Ethan wakes up from a nightmare (after having been knocked out by Gabriel's members.) We have the scene of Gabriel and Ethan & Grace, and then cut straight from that to the credits once Ethan & Grace fight it out, to Ethan running to save Luthor... where's Grace? We'll just say she went with the rest of the team. I've moved aorund a lot of scenes, the Ethan team at the House comes earlier, and so does the team briefing, with assistance by Spence & Wraith. The latest edit has been the entire firehouse fight, where they fight in the house and getting that to transition without the dumb aircraft fight (the fight's great, storywise unneeded. So I chopped it. - Last night I fooled around with the audio, and got it so the House Fight ends... more smoothly, not perfect. But it's better, and I re-arranged shots of the President's convo with her team so we start on the countdown, then go to the conversation. (used Spence's dialogue separated) ending to the scene. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hbpWeOcina4 The video here is the edit in my timeline, you can see my cuts, I admit I noticed one where I forgot a fade (whoops!) but otherwise. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qr_lXGQouI4 How does this sound? My edit clocks in around 2:09 (2 hrs obvs) maybe 2:15 but its pretty short, I want to make it longer.. but idk how, so you might get a shorter finale! Which I don't like... but I guess once I smooth this, to move onto reconstructing the ending.

X-Men Dark Phoenix - Fan Edit
I've ever since my second watch of X-Men Dark Phoenix have enjoyed the film... and after learning of it's crazy production with major reshoots changing the whole third act, different goals and ideas, shortened vision, missing trailer footage, etc, etc, I've wanted to reconstruct it. I've really wanted to try and create the epic that was the original cut and while I think it'd be impossible to fully recreate it, because I can't go to NYC and shoot the actors doing the original scenes... I do think I could with help (someone doing VFX) make something more grand, and at least different. (image)(image) I mean you have these pieces of concept art, but there's way more; There's an excellent YT video by the channel "Dark Phoenix Un-Cut" that has a lot of the art and such in one video... what I would give to try and just reconstruct simple things, like Jean having more fire, or the original opening titles... Even the teaser's got missing stuff cause it's from before the reshoots: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QWbMckU3AOQ The shot of Scott in the fog, Charles in the backyard of the X-Mansion "apologizing" which we do have that deleted scene on physical... but like I said I don't wanna just slap in 4 scenes and call it good, I want to make something grander, more epic. Will anyone help me?

X-Men Dark Phoenix - Fan Edit
I've realized through talking with triad how self-centered/focused I can be when pitching edit collabs, or in general: So I'm going to say this; I'm gonna shut up, and leave this open. If someone wants to help - come to me, you tell me what you want to do, and then we can try and meet in the middle, an actual collab of ideas. Thank you.

The Hobbit Trilogy - The Precious Edition fanedit

The Hobbit Trilogy - The Precious Edition fanedit

Welcome to FanWorx!

Thank you for visiting. This site was founded 3/10/2023 and is in slow and steady development.

The plan is to create a healthy and respectful community to celebrate pop culture. Many people like to celebrate their favourite things through creating various derivative works like Fan-Edits, Fan-Art, Fan-Fiction, Models, Posters, Cos-Play, Fan Games, and much more!

Not only will this be a community but also a database where people can find information on various fan productions and leave ratings.

Primarily though, this will be a community, and it is very important to have accountability at all possible levels. Ideally, users will be accountable, as will mods and admins. I want everyone to feel as if there is a fair and just environment. Trust and respect is important. Sites like reddit, twitter, steam, etc. seem to have forgotten this.

Thanks again for reading and I look forward to whatever people decide to share.


How this will develop

The site is being built in asp and I will create the database from the ground up. This will make it 100% custom and so can have whatever organisational method that works best.

The entire site will be completely integrated so that the database of properties and individual fanworx are not separated from discussion and community interaction. In terms of discussion, I am thinking I like how Reddit operates to some extent but I really hate the Karma system. People should be able to reward others, but not punish. Upvoting could be a possibility but no downvoting will be considered.

I want to try and find a balance between a traditional forum structure and the reddit type structure. how to present posts? threaded or in a hierarchy? The nature of the data storage will mean that discussions could be presented in any format, so there will be options to choose how to view discussions.

As for the other elements, I want to have individual hubs for franchises and properties. for example, there will be a hub for the fallout franchise and a sub-hub for the game fallout 4. This will be done with tags, and the tags will be placed in hierarchy. Fan works could then be attached to the hubs as individual entities.
