Fans Come Together To Complete Star Wars Uncut
eldavojohn writes "Star Wars Uncut has taken a novel approach to remaking Star Wars IV: A New Hope. You merely sign up for a 15 second clip, film it and submit it. The trailer is now complete and I will suspect you might enjoy the high quality (and low quality) of some of the already accepted scenes. 251 scenes remain in need of claiming with 688 claimed and 291 finished. Do your part to remake one of the greatest movies by filming fifteen seconds of yourself and your friends!"
I'd love to join, but I don't live in my parents basement so I'm not eligible.
Fantasize? I'm living the dream, buddy.
You know, I have no doubt that the end result of this will mostly suck if viewed on it's own merits, but I have to give them credit for one of the most interesting and creative ideas in fan-fiction I've seen in a long time. Hopefully the Lucas hammer of wrath won't destroy this.
No. He'll remaster it and digitize it and release a "Special Edition" version.

I, for one, would absolutely love to see him flail around with a lightsaber...

There is no cut. It's uncut. There is no cut for you to get.
Penis.
Well. Second largest.
Right after the fan re-write of the "New Hope" script as haiku. I hear there's a Klingon translation in the works. Difficult at the outset. It is rumored that there's no Klingon word for "hope", other than the phrase "Your fear which I did not bring about." Some fans suggested coining a new word, but this was considered a violation of the received Klingon - they don't want to just "make stuff up."

Clearly you haven't seen most of the scenes...
Wow.

Big question, who has to shoot first in this one? Han or Greedo?
IMHO, Greedo shot first, I have video evidence.

the aforementioned Leia sneaking around might be pretty poor quality in the "best of"
Only for very low values of "Leia".
Han cold-bloodedly murdering the handicapped lizard-man.
Well he couldn't very well murder the LIZARD man in WARM blood, now could he?
You underestimate the power of the Dork Side!

We could have World War III, and if it had a John Williams soundtrack, it'd be awesome.
