Just one movie for you today, and it’s great as it is
bizarre, surreal, and funny.
Screen grab from Star Wars Uncut: Director's Cut |
In 2009, Vimeo developer Casey Pugh had a dream: to create an entire remake of the original Star Wars: A New Hope using only 15 second fan-made clips; they could recreate the scenes whichever way they wanted, whether using action figures, beer bottles, animation or dogs. Now, a 2010 Primetime Emmy for Outstanding Creative Achievement In Interactive Media later, the entire crowd-sourced project has been completed.
You can see the completed fan-made Star Wars Uncut:
Director's Cut, below. The two hour film includes animation, live
action, puppets, Lego figures, and the weirdest collection of 15 second clips
ever assembled into one delightful pastiche that pays tribute to George Lucas’s
groundbreaking film.
Thanks to Gothamist for bringing
this to my attention.
