Tim and the Tin Titan

This is what every amateur movie should be
Art of the Saber is probably the best amateur movie I have ever seen.

A light saber fight sequence with the flavor of a Hong Kong martial arts action movie. This short is set in a dense forest of an unknown planet, where a young Jedi, eager to fight to help the Revolution, clashes with a Sith Lord in a battle where only one will remain standing. Music by Hans Zimmer and a monologue extracted from an authentic Civil War love letter written in 1861, help to set the tone for this movie.

It is very well made and the ambiance is just great. You can see that some though was put into this instead of just "lets fight with light sabers". It's a hefty download at 43 megs [direct download link] but well worth it.
