Never let it be said that Star Wars fans aren’t a creative and devoted group. 480 Star Wars fan got together to make a shot-for-shot remake of the Empire Strikes Back, which is called The Empire Strikes Back: Uncut.
The remake consists of a compilation of 15-second scenes taken from
over 1,500 submissions. The scenes are a mashup of various filmmaking
techniques, including live action, animation, and stop-motion. The
entire project was overseen by Casey Pugh, who also oversaw 2010’s
Emmy-winning Star Wars Uncut.
The remake is just so awesome that it even has the blessing of
Lucasfilm. In an introduction to the video, Lucasfilm Senior Events
& Fan Relations Lead Mary Franklin says, “One of the things that we
love seeing here, and we see it here every day at Lucasfilm, is fan
creativity. One of the best examples of fan creativity I’ve seen for a
long time is The Empire Strikes Back Uncut.”
