Popular DIY Star Wars Film in the Spotlight
Filed under: Independent, Sci-Fi & Fantasy, Fandom, DIY/Filmmaking, Cinematical Indie
BBC News recently did a feature report on Revelations, the homemade Star Wars inspired film that gained its popularity over the Internet. Star Wars fanatic Shane Felix took 3 years to direct the 40-minute film, with help from over 200 others. Whether or not you are Star Wars fan, it is interesting to see just how far home production and editing software can enable the non-professional. This filmmaking team has succeeded in taking their love of a movie franchise to an extreme. Who wants to get in on a CGI sequel to Stripes with me?

I tried to watch this, and I discovered that clunky dialogue and wooden acting is an epidemic in the Star Wars Universe.

Yeah, I'm referencing STRIPES, not the difficult task of sitting through 'Revelations.' Cool effort, but hard to like. But I DO like seeing that tubby Jedi forage around for snacks out in the field in that one shot.
