Many otherwise mature adults have dreamed for years of recreating the Death Star trench-running scene from Star Wars: A New Hope. Now our CineFix series, Homemade Movies—with special guest stars Chris Hardwick and Jonah Ray of The Nerdist podcast—shows how that might look.

This is an exact shot-for-shot recreation made entirely at home without fancy CGI or visual effects—just a lot of trash barrels, cardboard, toys, and love. May the DIY Force be with you.
