When the little alien girl greets Rey on Pasaana in TROS, she asks her for a dollar.

“Oh… I don’t have one.” Smiles firmly but awkwardly

When the civilian fleet arrives in TROS, use a shot from Rogue One to depict a previously unknown Death Star arrive along with them.

Starting to sound like Star Wars: Episode IX: The Rise of Ridiculousness.

When Jengo Fett jets into the arena to face Mace the Clones descend all turn and say “Dad?” When Mace decapitates him the Clones start crying and all turn on him. Mace Windu spends hours decapitating all of them.

While Boba is sadly holding the helmet, Jango’s head slides out and hits the ground with a wet squelch.

He does say “0200 hours”, as in the time, right? Or have I always misunderstood that line?

Either way, I guess it still counts as a horrible edit idea.

Cast a Mark Hamill look alike for 9 days’ worth of footage of Luke Skywalker’s daily routine for the trip between Tatooine and Alderaan.

A saga-wide edit where all instances of and references to clones, the Clone Wars, etc. are changed to clowns. E.G.:

Episode II: Attack of the Clowns

“General Kenobi, years ago, you served my father in the Clown Wars.”

All clown trooper helmets are suitably painted and fitted with rubber noses. Whenever they file out of a ship, the shot is looped beyond all reason as dozens more than could conceivably fit scramble out, before the ship itself falls apart. Laser battles become pie fights. Variations on “Entrance of the Gladiators” are worked into the score.

AI Mark Hamil’s Joker voice over the clones and I’m sold. Lol

I’m just a simple man trying to make my way in the universe.

Star Wars has 3 eras: The eras are 1977-1983(pre Expanded Universe), (1983-2014) expanded universe, or (2014- now) Disney-bought version. Each are valid.

Make it closer to Bozo the clown.

I have altered Lucas’ visions. Pray I don’t alter them any further.

A bunch of ideas for the prequels that I had for some reason.

The Phantom Menace:
Add Jango into Watto’s pawn shop (directly facing the camera), to mirror with Boba Fett being added briefly into ANH.

Add an extra scene with Maul after falling down the reactor thing, where his upper half catches a railing or something, and he explicitly states that he’s gonna need some mechanical spider legs. (fOrEsHaDoWiNg!)

Throw at least one regular car into the podrace, just for fun.

Cut out the bit where Anakin gets his fighter onto manual pilot, so that everything he does in the space battle over Naboo was just the autopilot the whole time.

Attack of the Clones:
More sand jokes.

Use the overused Tchaikovsky romance music for Anakin and Padme.

More Death Star references.

Revenge of the Sith:
Put the original longer opening back in, but keep all the stuff on the bridge from the final cut, for maximum redundancy.

Instead of landing half a ship, make our heroes only land the cockpit, while the rest of the ship disintegrates in the atmosphere.

Use some lines from Pulp Fiction to add a spicier arguement between Mace and Anakin in the whole “rank of Master” bit.

Replace “Anakin, Chancellor Palpatine is evil!” with “Anakin, Chancellor Palpatine is the phantom menace that brought about the attack of the Clones and the revenge of the Sith! We need our new hope before your new Empire strikes back, so that the Jedi can return!”

Extend the High Ground scene with an uncomfortable amount of staring between “Don’t try it!” and Anakin jumping.

I’m not really that much of a movie purist. I really should’ve thought my name out a bit more.

Change Obi-wan’s dialogue in ANH so that TROS’s TIE fighter antics make sense:

“It followed us!”
“No, it’s a short range fighter. However, certain larger TIE variants, such as that piloted by Darth Vader, are equipped with a Hyperdrive. Regardless, this ship probably originated in this system.”
“There aren’t any bases around here, where’d it come from?”

“A fighter that size couldn’t get this deep into space on its own. However, I must admit that the Empire may be capable of producing TIE fighters with Hyperdrive capability while retaining precisely the same dimensions and appearance, which would render this conversation, and by extension my troubling military deduction, entirely pointless.”
“He must’ve gotten lost in part of a convoy or something.”

Beautiful. Add it to the “Changes to the OT to better match the ST” thread.

I know this is a joke thread, but…

I think we can easily assume that the Tie Defender upgrades are passed into the FO TIE models. The FO has had decades to improve on the Thrawn/Zsinj Defender.

I was more referencing the regular Imperial TIE fighter that Ben took from the Second Death Star wreckage to Exegol.

Deepfake Palpatine’s face over Snoke’s so that he looks like a failed Palpatine clone.

Have one of the First Order officers suggest he looks like Palpatine and “Snoke” sneakily makes him choke and die while he’s eating lunch.

Go full WWF and replace every mention of the name Vader with “Mastodon” or “the man they call Vader.”
