Fan Made, Crowdsourced, Full-Length Star Wars Uncut is Delightfully Charming
Three years ago, Casey Pugh kicked off an ambitious project called Star Wars Uncut. In it, the entirety of the 1977 sci-fi classic Star Wars: A New Hope was sliced and diced into 15 second chunks. Through the project’s website, everyday folks could upload their shot-for-shot remakes of each section with the eventual goal of crowdsourcing the entire film. Though all the clips were apparently complete two years ago, it was only cut into one continuous film within the past few days. Let me tell you, folks: It is charming as all get out. It’s an amazing labor of love, that makes you forget all the cynicism about the prequels and everything that has come since. My favorite bit so far? The part where instead of Princess Leia placing a holographic diskette into R2D2, a hand places a VHS tape on top of a shop vac. You need to see this.

- Pingu meets The Thing
- Portal 2 fan vid is also incredibly charming
- It’s not a fan film, but Wes Anderson’s new movie looks pretty great
