At first I didn't understand it and then once I realized what it was, I really dug it. It's surreal and strange but really brilliant when it dawns on you what it is.
What is it? None other than STAR WARS: UNCUT, a unique experiment where fans of the original movie (#4 A NEW HOPE) each picked a fifteen second clip from the movie, recreated it and then uploaded it to the Uncut site and now, the owner of the site and his band of editors are putting an entire movie together made of home made clips. Below is a five minute clip of the finished piece that will debut in Copenhagen on April 19th (and the site announces that it'll be coming to New York soon). I wasn't sure I could watch a whole two hours of these edited pieces but the little bit I saw was easier to digest than I anticipated.
My favorite bit is when one guy climbs up the ladder and another guy pretends to climb down the ladder.. it's such a funny visual joke that I laughed out loud and isn't that a good thing on a Tuesday morning?
