Okay, okay, so it's Star Wars Day. I can't think of a better way to celebrate than watching a two-minute version of the original trilogy told entirely with stop-motion Lego. Other than watching it twice.

As much as I enjoyed the extended Lego light saber battle from March, I much prefer this condensed full story. Because hey, they still fit Admiral Akbar in. [YouTube via Wired]
DISCUSSION
I don't get the whole Admiral Akbar meme. It's not like the "it's a trap" line was delivered in a particularly memorable way (say, like "it's over 9000" ) it was just a line of dialogue like his other ones.
Why the notoriety?
PS. I realise the futility of asking for justification of a meme's existence, but perhaps someone can enlighten me.
BTW I loved the voice narrating this. I can't tell if it's a chick or a boy, but it was pretty pro.
