Crowdsourced Star Wars Remake!

They said that crowdsourcing could never create art. They were wrong:

"Crowd-Sourced Star Wars Remake Gives 472 Geeks Their 15 Seconds of Fame"
The site Star Wars: Uncut has decided to crowd-source a remake of the film by chopping it up into 15-second increments. Using the social video site Vimeo, people can sign up to download one of 472 15-second chunks of Star Wars: A New Hope and re-film it however they choose. Once complete, all 472 Vimeo clips will be stitched together in sequence to re-create the entire film. The results are already rolling in, and they're awesome.
