I can't see the pic :(

For the DVD menu, you could have a subtitle/caption reading: "The farce is with us!", using a play on words with "force" and "farce."

The U.S. or Canada I would think. I think Rube Goldberg was an American, but I'm not entirely sure.

Works really well. I think you synced it perfectly, but it was hard to tell for sure because my internet was lagging. I agree about Nute Gunray and I think you should also have something for the intro--maybe someone dancing or beat boxing.

The death of the major character should be made more obvious by preceding the gunshot with the light from a laser scope on the character's forehead--and after the fact, maybe cut to a celebration scene (maybe the end celebration from either Episode I or VI).

Too bad you aren't planning on making "A Ridiculous Hope", "The Ridiculousness Strikes Back", and "Return of the Ridiculousness". There's a lot of potential there and repeated lines which could be transformed into running gags.

An idea for George's appearance:

He could be censored out or blurred.

I also agree with the previously stated idea of the Wookies and other species without clothing having the naked body part blur over their crotches.

Why don't you make the whole section of the movie about Anakin turning into Darth Vader, Order 66, the fight between Obi-Wan and Anakin, etc. into a bad dream? Anakin could wake up at the end and there could be birds chirping in the background. And then end the movie with that. You could make the whole storyline of Episode III pointless just by doing that :)

You could include the birth scene and Padme dying as part of the dream. Then you could use the scene of Anakin waking up from his dream about Padme, therefore making it seem like he doesn't care about the part about him becoming Darth Vader and killing all the Jedi, just about Padme.

That actually works really well with the scene. I think you should leave the fade out as it is.

Have you checked out the soundboards on starwars.com? It might be easier to use those since there is no background noise or music. But then again, it might be harder to actually use them since you can't download them or anything (as far as I am aware). But it might be worth a try, especially since you can mix different lines together on the site.

I don't know much about this kind of stuff though, so I'm not sure if it would work or if it's been mentioned already.

Or...

Callback to TRM?

Pad: Something's happened...I'm pregant.
Ani: Is it my baby?
Pad: *speechless*
Ani: It's not my baby, is it?
Pad: *speechless*
Nute: Now there are two of them!
Ani: It's not fair!

Probably better to save "Now there are two of them" for when they realize it's twins at the end, with ghost Nute delivering the line of course.

The "Now there are two of them" gag can be used more than once. It should be used for both scenes.

This is off topic, but I'm not familiar with fanedit.org and am having difficulties figuring out where I can go and what I can do to download AotR. Can someone help me out here?

EDIT: Never mind, I just realized that I have to become a member and I'll get all the info I need when I do.

Who's the third? Is it the other Ric Olie who posted something a while back?

RicOlie_2???  Now there are two of them???

Yes there are...I'm totally making that my signature! EDIT: Title

What about my other suggestions? Does the Frink approve, or should I forget about them?

Perhaps the baby could end up being Obi-Wan's? I remember a scene where Obi-Wan visits her and asks if Anakin was the father. Maybe she could tell Obi that he was the father.

I'm not sure if you could use anything from this video, but a shot of Vader dancing or playing the accordion could have potential...

When R2 displays the hologram of Steve Grievous' ship and Obi-Wan points to the place that Palpatine's signal is coming from, you could replace the hologram with something ridiculous so that it looks like Anakin and Obi-Wan have no reason to be on the ship if they are rescuing Palpatine.

If you use the deleted scene with all the hand signals, will you use subtitles (for the hand signals)?

If you use it you could also make Obi-Wan and Anakin upset at some of the signals--for example, you could use Obi-Wan's "NOOOOOOO!!!" and Anakin's "I hate you" or some other lines (and after the Obi-Wan NOOOOO, you could have an "oops!")

You could also drag it out by making them repeat some hand signals several times and make "Steve" Grievous look somewhat incompetent as he stands by doing nothing.

Not sure how funny this would be or if it would work with the footage from the scene, but what the heck.

Thanks!

I recently watched TRM and loved it! Looking forward to seeing AotR! I read the entire thread for both TRM and AotR in the last couple days, and now I'm curious to know what exactly is going on with Ridiculousness of the Sith. Is there a new thread started for that and if so, how can I get to it? If not, what's happening with RotS now?

Your latest fan ;)
