Fan edits

I've been watching some fan edits of the Harry Potter movie series the past few days. They are mostly just adding deleted scenes to the movies to make them a bit longer and more interesting. However, there exists a community of fans who edit movies. Sometimes they remove components to help the story flow better. For example, the Star Wars prequel movies have been changed to remove Jar Jar Binks and midichlorians, as both are considered anathema to true fans of the series. However, some genius has created an edit of "No Country for Old Men" without the Sherriff's opening and closing narration. Don't get me wrong. I wasn't a huge of the movie. But, from what I've been told, the sherriff is the main character. Without his narration, dream, and bookend story, the whole middle of the movie makes no sense. The point is, supposedly, that he is getting old and the times are too fast and chaotic for him. That is what Chigur and Llewlyn's story symbolizes, the "modern" nature of things. The sherriff just doesn't understand it because he is too old. But by editing that out, this "fan" has basically destroyed the whole point of the movie. I guess some people just don't understand the point of some movies.
