Hell yes that would mean Chewie could say the whole "Mr Bimble is the man who lives in my finger" dialogue from Muppet Treasure Island.

And if you were going with the 'Christmas on Hoth' idea I suggested. You'd have lines from Muppet Christmas Carol to play with.

Plus use this dialogue verbatim lol...

Ooh, I agree, Fozzie would be perfect for Chewie.

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.

One of the first things I need to figure out is what source to use.  HD doesn't make any sense because I'm sure I'll be mixing in other sources that will only be available to me in SD.  Having said that, I suppose I could use Harmy's Despec'd Editions, rendered down to SD quality.  Other options include the 2004 DVDs (warts and all) and dark_jedi's GOUT sourced project.  Whatever I use, I'll be using the accompanying audio so that everything syncs ok.

While SE ridiculousness would be more... ridiculous, I like that you seem to be leaning more towards theatrical ridiculousness. A source without burned-in subs would seem an important consideration.

This could be a good source for the trench run.

As I tried to post before but in the wrong thread...

Possible lines:

Obi Wan: "I haven't gone by the name Obi Wan since I betrayed and murdered your father."

Luke: "You know him?"

Obi Wan: "Well of course I know him!"

Luke should say how much he cares about everything.

^ Great idea! I've made a few tweaks based on the Obi-Wan/third-person gag...

BEN: Obi-Wan Kenobi...Obi-Wan? Now thats a name Obi-Wan hasn't heard in a
long time...a long time.

LUKE: I think my uncle knew Obi-Wan. He said Obi-Wan was dead.

BEN: Oh, Obi-Wan's not dead, not...not yet.

LUKE: You knew Obi-Wan!

BEN: Well of course Obi-Wan knew Obi-Wan. Obi-Wan's Obi-Wan! Obi-Wan hasn't gone by
the name Obi-Wan since Obi-Wan betrayed and murdered your father.

LUKE: Then the droid does belong to Obi-Wan.

BEN: Obi-Wan doesn't seem to remember ever owning R4. Very interesting...

BEN: Obi-Wan thinks we'd better get indoors. The Mushrooms are easily startled
but they will soon be back and in greater numbers.

^ That'll be 17 Obi-Wans in as many seconds lol

How about having Vader speaking entirely in beeps? Like Captain Pike?

Maybe a ghost whistle, doorbell, swannee whistle, kazoo combination

HAN: There's another ship coming in.

LUKE: Maybe they know what happened.

OBI-WAN : It's an Imperial fighter.

LUKE : It followed us!

SPOCK : Scanning, indications negative at this time.

The Death Star itself is a Magic 8 Ball. Giving the standard replies to dialogue when comedy demands it.

Complete with flashing light on his chest panel?

I actually did a mock up a while ago where Vader had a flashing light on his nose.

EDIT:

Found it!!

Vader's lightsaber should be changed to orange, to show that he's not a Sith, but a Rogue Jedi. Luke's lightsaber should be changed for continuity with people changing Anakin's Saber in ROTS to red.

 

Oh, And Darth Vader should only speak in one beep for Yes, two beeps for No.

Cliegg ought to be still hanging around the farm muttering to himself. (Having become that crazy relative everyone mentally tunes out.) He could even float past when Luke is surveying the carnage later on. ;)

Saying "She's been gone a month."

Alternately, it would be really fun to see Maul's speeder bike float by during this "solemn" scene, with the radio still blaring...

He could come in saying "I'm back. I've been gone a month."

When Luke reaches for the control board "What's that flashing?" and Han slaps him.  That should happen numerous times throughout the film.

But "flashing" could be replaced with a different object.

Example: "What's that small moon?"

Another idea, when the officer tries to talk to TK-421, then looks out the window to see Luke (in disguise as a Stormtrooper) he could reply "I can't see a thing in this helmet" as he taps his helmet, or he could say "Huh? Oh the uniform..."
