Lost Star Wars Scene In the Wild

Someone managed to get a clip on-line of the lost Star Wars scene from Jedi where Luke is shown crafting his Lightsaber. The full clip will apparently be included on the Blu-ray box set expected to come out in 2011. Hit the link below to see what is circulating. It's not much, but it looks real. Can't wait to see what they include in the 2015 version.
Update: 08/16 22:44 GMT by S : Lucasfilm complained, and YouTube took the video down.

      I want R2D2 to shoot first, right after the bartender says he doesn't serve their kind in there.

    What are those? I only recall A New Hope, The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi... as far as I was aware those were the only three that were made.

    It really is about time they made some new star wars movies though, I mean, 30 years is a bit of a wait, don't you think? Then again maybe they'd just screw it up...

    Or it could in fact actually not be him. Stand-ins for scenes like that aren't uncommon in the industry, or even in the Star Wars movies themselves....ask David Prowse.

    And James Earl Jones, who should've been behind that mask at the end of ROTJ. That would certainly have been a surprise.

    This is a continuation of the light saber construction scene. It shows where Luke just can't get his scratch built version to work, says "fuck it!" and orders one off the shelf from Dell.

    Thanks guys. I always thought I was a geek before I read the comments here - all for 56 seconds of "extra" content for a 27-year-old film.

    I'd now like to hand my geek-card in to someone who has a greater need for it.

    I dont get it, they have not even introduced Spock yet. Plus why all this focus on the fringe alien races? No ferengi, or Vulcans anywhere in those movies.

    I actually did that at a comic con during a heated discussion between 2 uber-nerds dressed as starwars characters... they came completely unglued on me. "THAT IS STAR TREK YOU IDIOT!" And started frothing at the mouth...

    I then asked cince they know so much, when did buck rogers make his debut in Pantom Menace.... They almost started convulsing...

    I want them to reshoot the scene where Qui-Gon Jinn and Obiwan first meet Jar-Jar.

    Jar Jar: Meesa so happy you saved me. Yay!!!!

    It's a fake. Luke had to build a lightsaber to replace the one lost when his hand was cut off. The person in this clip has a normal right hand.

    Furthermore, it's actually a fairly dramatic, brief scene with good imagery, so you know some one else made it (Lucas doesn't have that talent any more).

    I was really hoping that Anakin would go to the darkside because Jar Jar made him snap.

    Something like
    JarJar: Ooosaa Missa Skywalka... Missa Padme ee ... *gah gah gah choke*
