Now playing
—
Trashcut rides along while you watch and fast-forwards the boring scenes, playing the good ones at full speed. A 2½-hour movie in about an hour, plot intact. For rewatches only — you've already earned the right to butcher it.
// this is not how you should watch a movie. that's the whole point.
Fast-forward runs silent.
The slow scenes that build character and plot? On a first watch, those are the movie. Trashcut skips them on purpose — so it's only for films you've already loved properly at least once.
you've seen it — now speedrun it.Knows which film you've got playing the moment the page loads — no setup, no searching.
Pulls that movie's scene map, where every scene is scored for how good it is.
Your lens decides the line: a great scene plays at full speed, a dull one doesn't get the privilege.
Boring stretches fly by at up to 8×, then it drops straight back to 1× the second something good starts.
The default lens keeps anything rated 6 or higher. Crank the threshold and the movie shrinks toward the one-hour mark; loosen it for a gentler trim. Tag-based lenses (watch only the action) are next.
Choose what the fast-forward sounds like. Movie mode keeps the real audio (only sensible up to 4×). Or go full VHS — it loops a real VCR recording over the blast, a fresh chunk every burst so it never repeats.
Adding a movie that isn't covered yet? An overlay rides on top of playback — mark scene starts, ends and tags live as you watch, then export the whole cut to your clipboard. That's how the library grows.
Cuts are tied to the movie, not the service — so the same scene map works wherever a film lives. Hulu runs today; more services slot in without redoing the data.
Trashcut is early and rough around the edges. Here's what already works and what's coming.
