Fan edits of trailers are quite a common trend throughout multiple fandoms. But this new edit might have just topped it all off as a fan decided to tweak the entirety of ‘Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone’ by replacing wands with guns. Running at 169 minutes, the whole of the film was edited by the dedicated fan to include pistols, machine guns, gun shots in every scene a wand appears in… and then some!
The fan released a trailer to showcase exactly what his masterpiece entails. Described as an ‘unsanctioned, licensed content, feature-film-long JOKE’, it allegedly took the fan up to five years to finalise. Uploaded to a website for fans to watch the hilarious rendition, the fans involved stated that ‘though this project started as a tasteless joke, in the wake of mass shootings and other daily horror, we have to ask ourselves if Hollywood pushes gun too hard.’
