I don't think it was an accident. I believe it was edited that way on purpose. For some reason. The actors might have F'ed up during one take or something. _______________________
Tweek, my abridged version isn't bad to watch at all. Unless you find Kim, Erica, and Tristen unattractive or something ..
Bottom line: you're despising the theatrical version. Which I understand.
But now there's no longer a need to remain completely closed minded.
Never discount the possibility that BoS could be cool.

Kim was naturally hot. Erica was also naturally hot.
But Tristen stands out to me. Not to get too graphic, but go back and watch her sit up in bed. But what really drives it home .. watch her run around the bed a few times.

It is not a mistake, it is a jump-cut. They probably trimmed it down so the scene would move faster. This is how it looks like when you have just one angle and then decide cut in it. Similar thing happens in BWP, do you all remember the commentary track where they comment on Heathers ears moving/jumping just because the filmmakers cut in the one angle footage, creating a jump-cut.

Similar thing happens in BWP, do you all remember the commentary track where they comment on Heathers ears moving/jumping just because the filmmakers cut in the one angle footage, creating a jump-cut. Definitely not an editing mistake, but I do still maintain that it goes farther than simply being a jump cut as well. The abruptness is an embedded clue as to the non-reality of the following scene. There are multiple ways to play with the meaning of this. It could be that from the Shadow of The Blair Witch-as-reality angle, no one knows who Erica was, as in, that is not her real name and they have never been able to identify her. Jeff, Stephen, and Kim may all say to the police that her name was Erica Geerson, but this turned out to be untraceable. So in this case the strangeness of the cut is to underlie the idea that even the filmmakers could not tell what level of reality this information was. The name itself could be a lie given by the other three in order to cover up something else for all we know, meaning the "scene" of her telling them this name could be fabrication by them. Another angle more bizarre could go along with the Esrever concept, whereby the producers are suggesting that strange things have happened during the shooting of BoS, meaning this scene could in fact be some form of supernatural imprint upon the film itself which overlapped with the intended footage. So the lie becomes one inserted by the strange force itself.

I'm not convinced Erica lied at all. When parents disown a child they sometimes say they have no children.
The lady assistant on the phone with Jeff was most likely under the impression that Minister Geerson never had any children.
After all, the Minister was real.
But the truth is that most of the movie is simply what they "remember" happening. And therefore not exactly as things happened. Hence, the whole experience itself being a distorted Book of Shadows.
On a side note, it's really brutal to think about what Jeff did to Erica before he killed her..

When Tristen is asking Erica about her parents. A shot goes from her not having the beer in her mouth to it jump cutting to it being there. It's not my edit, or a DVD rip problem. It's there. I've gone back and fixed minor audio pops because I couldn't stand it. They let this one go. Good thing I cut it out of the edit. This "mistake" is actually completely intended and serves a secret point. This is a a unique trick (which would only be noticed by few) to hint that the story Erica just gave to Tristen about her parents is actually a lie. It is an abrupt cut into the "film" of the movie, which is told to us by Jeff as being capable of lying (specifically versus the "video"). So no, they didn't miss anything at all, this is there for a reason. I thought that you where sarcastic but then I read you second post, now I think that you might be reading a little too much into it. But who know. I would like to have a chat with Berlinger that's for sure.

The Shadow Edition "needs to render" .. "It'll take six hours" (which, incidentally, was typed by Anarch 4 days ago)
"Oh, it took 4 hours then screwed up at the end today"
wtf man? I thought you were all cutting edge tech from the top down? Therefore, how could these things ever possibly happen to you?
All you do all day every single day is sit on this site, and yet you have no time after three weeks to get your awesome cut "rendered".
Whatever. Brah.
