RE: Episode II: Attack of the Ridiculousness

I quite like the idea of Obi-wan referring to everyone else. I guess it's just me then.

I love Duke Dooku as well.

 

Have you thought of adding elevator music to the Anakin/Obi conversation?

Personally I suggest you stick just with self-reference.  Like you said, the choppiness was off-putting for some, so you don't want to make it excessive, and the same goes for the joke.  It's probably funniest just leaving it in reference to Obi-wan.  But please keep it for himself.

^This.

Also, I second greenpenguino's suggestion regarding elevator music.

LoL....I know one thing, I'd like to hear that corny Obi-wan laugh a few times throughout the edit.

No...but it's a brilliant idea.

yay!

 

Also, how about, when the elevator doors open, the 'ting!' sound is heard.

At the end of that scene I notice Jar Jar walking and you can hear subtle sounds I guess from his wardrobe.

Maybe it would be funny to have a clown-like squeaky shoe noise whenever he walks around.

When Dooku is singing you can put close-ups of Christopher Lee's mouth (only the mouth).

You can "zoom in" the mouth from this video:

It would be very funny.

 

Sorry about my terrible English.

Or you might be able to work that whole scene in. Cut away from the action of the droid factory sequence to Dooku sitting in some other room with a random alien singing.

I would add reverb or something to the elevator music... its too "present"

(or you could replace it with this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2Tw69yDJlN4)

I mean it stands out a little too much, like it doesnt belong, though sort of like how Vaders voice in ANH sounds different to ESB

But it is your edit...

Thinking about it, I would love to hear Count Dookula say this line to Obi-Wan on Geonosis.
"You may come and go as you please. My secrets guard themselves."
It's from The last Unicorn. Though it might be not funny, it always striked me as fitting.

ROFLMAO!

 

You used my squeaky shoes idea!

 

And it works!

 

F'in awesome.

 

I also love how you added in the Krusty clown voice. To answer your question, I would also just keep the Jar Jar name.

Completely, totally agreed!  I have tears in my eyes!

The ROTJ collaborative thread is a wealth of ideas, both on how to edit Return of the Jedi, as well as how to collaborate in an edit.  Emanswfan has taken leadership of the project.

Just release the edit now.  It is already hilarious!  

 

So do you need to redo The Ridiculous Menace?
