I've got to see this!

My sister recently told me about a group of teenagers who in the early eighties spent six years making a shot for shot remake of Raiders of the Lost Ark. They started when they were around twelve. So I did some web searching and a branch of Paramount studios has bought the rights to the film in a six figure deal this past February. The article seems to indicate that Paramount may be producing a movie on the making of the remake. I actually came across a trailer that showed the big rolling ball scene and it was pretty amazing (trailer). You need QuickTime to view the trailer and it takes a little while to load but it's cool. Also, Spielberg has scene the movie and apparently loves it. The whole thing is such a cool story I just had to mention it. This movie has got to get out to a wider audience. I think such an accomplishment really strikes a chord with so many people who love movies and made movies as kids. Anyhow the buzz is that the movie is actually pretty damn good.
