Star Wars Uncut Is Complete Dan Koelsch, August 22, 2010 For those of you not in the know, Star Wars Uncut is a project started by Vimeo developer Casey Pugh to create a collective fan made version Star Wars: Episode IV – A New Hope. Through the project’s website, Pugh got creative fans to recreate 15 second clips of classic sci fi film, and let fans vote to decide which ones would make the final cut (sound familiar?).
