Have you ever encountered a joke edit of a movie while sailing the high seas? (leminal.space)

I have been thinking about the Cerveza Crista edit of Star Wars: A New Hope that sporadically splices in beer ads and the Toy Story 3 edit alternate ending where they fall into the incinerator and it made me wonder if people have come across these kind of joke versions, in full, in the wild.

It seems like a majority of the time it's just short clips being made and reposted.

I'm not talking about the edits of movies where they do things like decrease the speed of the audio so it gradually desyncs from the rest of the movie or when they replace the entire movie with the Limewire Bill Clinton ad.

It wasn't an edit of the movie. The beer company just paid the TV station to put the ad breaks at specific places of the movie, and for their ad to be the first ad of the ad break, allowing them to make it look like part of the movie. But it was still just an ad break, and other ads followed the beer ad.
