This dad in Lafayette, CA wanted to show his Star Wars fan spirit, so what does he do? He builds a 400 pound Death Star model on the roof of his house. The darn thing even lights up! (via Huffington Post)

Speaking of ridiculously epic photo ops, a photographer with a real sense of scale replicated some really awesome Star Wars scenes using LEGOs. (via Comic Book Resources)
And last in this Star Wars section of Things We Saw Today, /Film’s got a huge infodump on The Force Awakens, gleaned from Entertainment Weekly. There’s some potentially spoilery stuff in there, so consider this your warning.

This trailer for a Legend of Zelda movie from Ideas for Hollywood hits all the right notes. It’s gorgeous, and makes me want a Zelda movie so bad. It’s even got some awesome Sheik action! Oh, and watch the whole thing. I think this might be the first time I’ve seen a post-trailer stinger, but… this one is definitely welcome.

Speaking of epic adventure: Pike and Trident is running an IndieGoGo campaign to raise funds for their second episode featuring time traveling museum curators. If that tagline didn’t sell it for you, maybe this interview between Teresa Jusino and the movie’s writer and star Patty Jean Robinson will!
And finally, if you’ve ever wondered what Inside Out might look like as a psychological thriller, then wow you’ve got some interesting wonders there, pal. But this re-imagined trailer from the masterminds over at CineMash made this just for you. (via Laughing Squid)

And so ends (what I think is) the 1,000th Things We Saw Today! To all of you seers of things and sharers of stuff, we wanted to take a moment to say: thank you for reading!

Now, back to business. What’d y’all see today?
