Shrek Retold https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pM70TROZQsI is a similar fan-made reproduction, but it's way more polished. The movie is split into roughly 1min sections, with each one done by a different creator. The quality is all over the place, in a hilarious way. One minute it's produced by a professional animator nailing the scenes, then the next minute it's people goofing around in their backyard.

I believe the trendsetter was Star Wars Uncut, made of 15s slices:

Which I now realise I never watched in full...

I love the differences between those three movies (The Free Movie, Shrek Retold and Star Wars Uncut). Star Wars really looks like a work of love. Shrek looks like a work of love that tries it's best to not take itself seriously. Free Movie looks like a bizarre troll post.

While this is coherent with each movie's tone itself, and perhaps with the time each "demaster" was made (I don't know, I didn't check), I feel like this is most coherent with how each movie is viewed by the community:

- Star Wars is a beloved movie, with a huge honest fan base. Thus, it was remade with love and attention to detail.

- Shrek is a beloved movie, but doesn't take itself seriously in the first place, and is also a meme. Thus it was remade with love, but trying hard to look like it's a troll.

- Bee Movie is mainly a meme, isn't AFAIK a beloved movie, and its fan base is mostly made of memers and trolls. Thus it was low-effortly remade at this non-flattering image.

There is an episode of Bob's Burgers that did something similar to this. https://bobs-burgers.fandom.com/wiki/Brunchsquatch/Trivia#:~...

Also there's the "The Princess Bride: Home Movie": https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=29s1yU3nGkQ

Note that this isn't really a fan-remake as it's professional actors but with the spliced scenes but it's pretty entertaining.

There’s an extremely goofy version of RoboCop that’s sort of like this as well.

Our Robocop Remake is a scene by scene remake, made in the same spirit as this FreeBee Movie.

Worth a watch with friends present: https://vimeo.com/85903713

The Robocop remake was my first thought. Some of those scenes are hilarious.

Some of the most goofiest scenes reminded me about my self growing up, recording dumb re-creations of movies/tv-shows with friends.

I had a blast watching that! thank you for sharing.
