'Star Wars Uncut': Fans Recreate Classic Flick With Legos, Dogs, And More (VIDEO)

If you haven't heard of "Star Wars Uncut," here's the deal: fans selected 15 second clips of "Star Wars: A New Hope" and reshot them in any style they wanted. The organizers then took each clip and pieced the whole movie together as seamlessly as they could. It's scheduled to premiere in Copenhagen in the near future. And when we say "Copenhagen," we mean "someone will bootleg and put online because the internet comes through every time."

Judging by this 5 minute clip, it's gonna be awesome. The DIY factor only adds charm (something George Lucas could take note of), as the sequences resemble the Sweded movies from "Be Kind Rewind." And as a bonus, stick around for the end, where you'll be treated to a seemingly inexplicable - yet somehow totally necessary - use of Seal's "Kiss From a Rose." Sure, that may seem like a bit of a spoiler, but c'mon, but knowing Seal's sultry pipes will be playing over Luke and Han's escape is just icing on the cake. (via Topless Robot)

Long, long ago, in a galaxy far away, there were people who had no life of their own....

Being someone who has watched the Original Star Wars over 700 times since I first saw it in the theater over two decades ago, I have to give this clip two thumbs up!

Loved the Lego at the beginning the best.

The whole thing makes me want to watch the movie again!
