Star Wars is great, and so is learning, so Michael Heilemann combined the two for this full-length recut of A New Hope with its visual influences inserted popup video-style—and sometimes just fully cut into the movie. He’s also got a really great breakdown on his website that goes even deeper, which is worth a look for any Star Wars fan.
