Could always try taking Ady's april fools idea and expanding on it by also having the cave scene intercut with shots of "The Agreeable Snowman" in his cave.

Ointment FlySince I'm getting suggestions for TRSB, I will make a thread for that one as well as for Ep 6.

Magister Pontifex MaximusOne for the effects guys but it would be fun to have the Star Destroyer fill the screen first and then have Leia ship come up behind it.
The film could then rewind and go with Leia's ship and no Star destroyer.
Maybe Leia ship could be pointing the wrong way etc.
It would almost certainly require a model of the Tantive as there isn't enough footage to just flip it around.
The gag could make an 'Return' in the ROTR.

"darth endeor was a meanyhead" - FatherSkywalker, et al--QFTMy "I didn't kill my wife" idea was a serious one. I honestly think it could be funny if there was a running gag about not killing his wife. There is even a Jimmy Kimmel interview of Harrison Ford where Chewie is in the audience and Harrison starts yelling at him and takes off. When asked what the problem was, he says, "He was my wife!"
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.

I am ready for the trials!Maybe a pair of fuzzy dice, or one of those pine tree air fresheners hanging in the Falcon cockpit? It only needs to be in a couple shots, as the real dice in the movie vanish anyway...

Magister Pontifex MaximusVader could be obsessed with workplace safety.
They could all be eating chinese food in the conference room when a prawn ball goes down the wrong way and Vader uses the Force to 'unchoke' Motti who was speaking with his mouth full.
This could be a running gag with Ozzel eating potato snacks and Needa grabbing a bag of popcorn before apologising to Vader.

For some reason I love the idea of these being extreme TV edits.

One little gag I added in my War of the Stars first fanedit (I don't know if many people understood it well though) is that it is Obi Wan who accidentally starts the converging garbage compressor walls. He does it when he tries to shut the beam tractor down, but obviously he makes a wrong manip.
You could go over the top with this idea, like maybe having Obi Wan pushing the walls to converge (not knowing what he's doing) and R2 trying to stop them. That could go on for ever.

I am ready for the trials!Ridiculous new text on the tractor beam control panel could be funny. Not to mention on the super laser firing control. "Destroy planet."
Have some hapless Imperial or droid fall to their doom in the background while Obi Wan is working? That probably happened on the Death Star several times a day. ;)

Magister Pontifex MaximusThe Falcon could slowly move towards the Death Star while the engines are on but as soon as Han switches them off there is a loud BOING! as the ship hurtles at the station and into the landing bay just narrowly missing Vader et al as they walk in.
