Sorry, but I do not agree... Lucas already replaced the Ents with the Ewoks, Gandalf with Obi-wan, Aragorn with Han Solo, Frodo with Luke... Have you ever read the Lord Of The Rings, guys ?

... All the plan from the LOTR books is to be retrieved reworked and simplified in Star Wars. Joseph Campbell has certainly his part in that tho.

So, replacing the Ewoks with Ents would be some of the best ideas you could have, no ?

Taking your question literally, no, I haven't read LOTR. I hate Tolkien's style and after struggling through Fellowship, ground to a halt in Two Towers. Never read Return. When the movies came out, I gave it another shot and couldn't get anywhere in Fellowship. Thanks to Peter Jackson, I can finally experience this story.

Star Wars needs Gollum and a Precious.

Um...

 

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHHHH !!!!!!!!!!!!!

I thought Tom Skerrit had really let himself go there for a second.

RE: Worst Edit Ideas

Kill it with firesees!

RE: Worst Edit Ideas

... Tom "scare-it" ?

My favorite part was when they had to throw R2 into the core of the Death Star.

 

-_-

Okay, that's a fun worst edit idea.

RE: Worst Edit Ideas

Oh yeah... that core thing, again a LotR still...

RE: Worst Edit Ideas

Add a montage of Padme meeting Anakin on Tatooine when she is "giving up on life" in ROTS.

RE: Worst Edit Ideas

You can't make any prequel worse: you lose.

... Except if you bring very good stufff in it. That would be the worst.

Now you look even cooler in the rain! Girls love the brooding type!

RE: Worst Edit Ideas

After Count Duke Dooku gets his head chopped off in Ep3, the screen fades to black and there's a touching montage detailing Dooku's life. We see him grow up, join the jedi order, fall in love, his love tragically dies, something to do with him and politics, him training qui-gon, him leaving the jedi order and meeting *cringe* sidious. Him dressed as dracula, and sherlock holmes. And then the events of the clone war, with him constantly holding an image of his lost love. The screen fades black again as the sad touching music, that has been playing throughout, comes to an end.

The words, Count Duke Dooku 102 BBY - 19 BBY and a photo of him appears on the screen before fading to black again.

 

The rest of the movie then continues along as usual.

RE: Worst Edit Ideas

As the Stormtroopers search for Princess Leia they spot a ginger tom cat.

While trying to coax the cute creature out a giant Naboo Queen unfurls from the ceiling, pierces their heads with a projectile tongue and pulls them into the air-ducts.

I love this idea!  If I had some footage available to me I would totally make it happen.

Well, maybe at least a montage of his Episode II highlights with some really touching music would be good enough.

RE: Worst Edit Ideas

^ That makes it a "best" edit idea again !

 

When I began to read the post I thought he was about to say:

After Count Duke Dooku gets his head chopped off in Ep3...

... The End Titles blow the screen.

RE: Worst Edit Ideas

:D

In Episode 3, during the big 'all the jedi die' bit, Bob Dylan's 'Times are a changing' plays over, and the sound is muted. Everything turns black and white.

RE: Worst Edit Ideas

The EP4 Death Star should have subtle, almost subliminal, shading of the AT&T logo.  Corporate sponsoring will allow the creation of more Special Editions.

 ... Or what about fading in pixelised screen with a big GAME OVER over the explosion ?

RE: Worst Edit Ideas

Replace the interrogation droid with the hypnotoad:

and amend the dialogue accordingly.

RE: Worst Edit Ideas
Ok, well I don't know any Hypnotoad, but replacing the interogation droid would really not be the worst thing ever.
RE: Worst Edit Ideas

Palps already did it in TRM.

RE: Worst Edit Ideas

Subtly change character's names.

Hank Solo.  Lou Skywalker.

RE: Worst Edit Ideas

Darth Darth.  Duke Dooku.  Sid Sidious.

 

And change Zam to Mark.

 

RE: Worst Edit Ideas

Everytime someone yells NOOOO!!!! add the song 'Nobody does it better' to the rest of NOOOOO!!!!.

RE: Worst Edit Ideas

Replace all of John Williams score with disco versions of his music.

RE: Worst Edit Ideas

Preserve the secret that Vader is Luke's father in the PT.

What's that? People think that's a good idea. Wow.
