These days I don't see the point so much in miniatures when you can do so much with Lego.

Man, I wish they hadn't had to resort to CGI and claymation to bridge some of those gaps. I totally would have been able to forgive a little slop to get the titles and stuff in real life Legos.

This actually reminded of something I had completely forgotten about, Star Wars Uncut. For those who don't know, it is/was a crowd sourcing project that recreated Star Wars (and is currently in the process of recreating Empire) in nothing but 15 second, fan submitted clips.

Overall, the only thing that really bothered me about it, was that there were so many absolutely awesome 15 second clips whose style I wanted to see the entire movie done in. Several Lego and an absolutely amazing Yellow Submarine-styled clip are the ones that really stick out in my memory.
