Sensible-cinema [5] allows you to apply pre-programmed edit lists
(e.g. Edit Decision Lists [2]) to DVD's you own.

+It is currently in alpha/beta, though will always be free software, even after releases.
It also includes a library of EDL's that go along with various DVD's, we need volunteers

To use, basically install, then insert an original DVD that you want to edited, then run sensible cinema.
It will pop up some windows where you choose what to do.

You could also buy a projector, attach it to your computer, and then use that to watch it.
If you're interested in also being able to "beam" it from your computer to your game console (ex: PS3) ping me--I might have
something in mind that could help, though hasn't been created yet. (Playon.tv does something like this, too, but
I might come up with a competitor to it if desired, as the existing one costs money).

I once tried Clearplay (a "filter"ed DVD player)
but (for me) it didn't cut it. It costs money monthly (I'm too cheap to pay--and many
