Star Wars: Retold (by someone who hasn’t seen it)
Row Three —
I f we had a feature titled “Video of the Day”, this would win today’s prize. The basic premise: a guy asks his friend to watch the original trilogy and she, who admitted to never having seen it before, agreed but said she already knew what happened so he put her to the test. The result: Amanda explains the plot of episodes IV, V and VI and the entire thing is cut into a cheesy but funny video. So close yet so far away… Thanks to Darren Barefoot ...
Star Wars: Retold (by someone who hasn’t seen it)
/Film —
Most everyone I know has seen the original Star Wars trilogy, but there is always a person who has only seen it in bits and pieces over the years and doesn’t quite understand the big picture. Joe Nicolosi recorded his friend Amanda as she retells the story from the tiny amount that she has seen or heard about with rather hilarious ...
Fan Made: Star Wars Retold (By Someone Who Hasn't Seen It)
Cinematical —
Everyone has that one friend. Ya know, you'll be in the midst of some conversation about bagels and Tetris when all of a sudden you throw out a quote from Star Wars as a joke, but the other person looks back at you kinda clueless. And then some variation of the following occurs: You: Um ... Star Wars? Them: Oh, I've never seen Star Wars. You: OMG! WTF! Is there a button somewhere on your body that lets me unfriend you, like, now? Them: Yeah, I've never seen it. So what? I don't get what the big friggin' deal is -- it's just a stupid movie. You: Please go away and tell the devil I'm onto him ... Well the above apparently happened to ...
The Star Wars Trilogy: Incorrectly Retold
Movies —
FishRockitDOTcom has a humorous video up of a girl named Amanda who, allegedly, has never seen the Star Wars trilogy, and is asked to recite the entire storyline in chronological order. She's seen bits of George Lucas' billion dollar baby, and has a basic grasp on the plot. But when she gets it wrong, boy does she get it wrong. To her credit, maybe having Han Solo and Luke Skywalker kiss at the end of Jedi would've been the right way to go. The lust was always there. busy Newer Article > ...
Star Wars Described by Someone who has Never Seen it!
The Movie Blog —
Just because this is likely the funniest Star Wars related thing I have ever seen, I had to share it with you.
This is genius. The animations offered up with the audio track are just the icing on the cake.
I am often surprised by people who have never seen Star Wars. I am not saying you have to love it, but honestly it is worth a watch.
Thanks to Adam Lopez for tipping me off to this clip!

1. "Top 10 Incredible Early Firsts In Photography": From The List Universe. (Hattip: Andrew Sullivan) ["Historic films are very popular and they all attempt to recreate the period in which they are set. This film is the first celluloid film created and it gives us a true look at how people looked and, more importantly, carried themselves (in the case of the women in full corseted gowns). The film only lasts for two seconds but it is enough time to see the characters walking. It was recorded at 12 frames per second by French inventor Louis Le Prince. It ...

Hollywood Elsewhere —
[image] Cloverfield [BLU-RAY] (Paramount Home Entertainment, 6.3.2008) Disguised under deliberately goofy, yet deliciously edible-sounding, aliases such as Cheese and Slusho, Matt Reeves' Cloverfield was produced and rushed into theaters under an equally appetizing shroud of secrecy. From last year's incredibly elusive Super Bowl ad to the film's viral marketing campaign, Cloverfield had everybody scratching their heads and drooling in anticipation. Aside from the as-yet untitled title and the Blair Witch -ian visual style, the film's biggest appeal was the enigmatic creature who was last (un)seen hurling the decapitated head of the Statue of Liberty onto the crowded ...
Star Wars Episode VI: Return of the Jedi (1983)
Film Forager —
Ah, the final phase of the Star Wars nostalgia/homesick trilogy viewing: Return of the Jedi. And as usual, it's pretty great, though filled with some unnecessary silliness. Luke, Leia, and Lando (mmm alliteration) hatch a brilliant (?) plan to set Han free from his carbonite prison within Jabba the Hutt's lair. First C-3P0 and R2-D2 are hired by the giant slug as servants. Leia dons the golden slave costume and is chained to Jabba after freeing a temporarily blind Han from containment. When Luke tries to be all mysterious and Jedi-mind-tricky, he's forced to battle a gruesome creature in the rocky cells beneath the main floor. Soon ...
OH NO YOU DIDN’T #3: Someone who has never seen a STAR WARS movie tries to explain it! by COOP **UPDATED!**
The Small Town Critic —
I declare this one a must-see. Some dude named Joe Nicolosi apparently asked an air-headed friend (girlfriend, maybe) Amanda to explain the original "Star Wars" trilogy even though she has NEVER SEEN any of the films. Correction: She's seen bits and pieces and knows the characters' names, but Joe tapes the entire explanation and adds animation for comedic effect. The result: A hilarious work of genius...
Saturday Morning Animations, Episode 1
Suvudu - Science Fiction and Fantasy Books, Movies, and Games —
Hello and welcome to the first episode of Saturday Morning Animations here on Suvudu! We've come a long way in digital animation and storytelling, as I hope this little series (I have no idea how long this will run, but I have enough to get us through this month and the next). You're not longer tied to enormous production houses to create a digital film with high production values.
Of course, that's not to say I'm going to restrain myself to only the slickest and most polished of productions, that would be far too limiting. The joy of finding animations across the web is in the free-for-all creativity and, as you'll see today, you don't have to be photo-realistic to put ...
