Star Wars: Uncut is a web project in which 473 people each contribute 15 seconds of footage for a complete, shot-for-shot remake of Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope. Participants’ remakes range from cartoons to Lego stop-motion, and there’s even a segment using only dogs. The producers have released roughly five minutes’ worth of footage, and it’s a real treat — silly and charming, with a new style every fifteen seconds. Check it out:

Full credit goes to Miss Cellania, who originally linked to this on April 13th. I thought it was sufficiently nerdy to deserve its own post. Enjoy!

That was awesome! I like all the versions of C3P0 and R2D2.

I really reallly reallllly like this.
I can’t tell you how many summer hours me and my friends would spend recreating Star Wars scenes as kids.
We would fight about who gets to be Luke (NO! You were Luke last timeeee) and my poor friend’s little sister always ended up being typecast as Leia.

I love the Porter Cable router making a guest appearance. Never saw that coming.
Quirky is a good word to describe this. I liked it.
