IMO it works the first time anyway. Most people think with their heads, not their mouths.

And beyond that, the different locations for the censor bar is part of the joke. Early on there’s a shot where R-20,000 swears but he’s off camera, so I put a censor bar over one of Obi-Wan’s cockpit displays instead. It doesn’t make sense from a logic standpoint but that’s part of the joke.

Heck, I think I’ve used the censor bar on R2 himself and he doesn’t even have a mouth. Technically I should put it over his speaker…?

God bless the Garmin Nuvi for giving me the idea for that name.

I think I’ll pepper in a few other (earlier) shots throughout as a lead up to this moment.

yeah, took a bit to get the connection (although i had a guess based on your color palette) Probably a good idea to lead into it a bit more. although an argument could probably be made that the joke may work better as an ‘ahah’ once the audience is clued in? probably not a good argument though, confusing the audience is a bad idea.

Haven’t been watching any of the clips because I want it to be a surprise when I watch it (hopefully soon enough). Anyway, loved your first two ridiculous edits and hope this one lives up. Good luck!

Not enough people read the EU.

Are there any shots were they look up? You could have them reacting to Anakin’s ship arriving.

JEDIT:Scratch that idea, as Lucas didn’t do a bunch of shots of Ani’s ship flying in for a change. 😉

Where were you in '77?

Actually, I did find a great shot of Sam looking up to the clouds…there is one shot of Ani’s ship flying to the planet, no reason Sam can’t see into space 😉

Ok, didn’t think it could work as the flying in and landing shot is so far away from the camera.

That works. A little more engine approaching in the surrounds over the Sam shot would also help sell it.

i dunno seems pretty clearly connected to me. although the audio, i had to listen a second time (and carefully) to make out Sam’s ‘oh no’. maybe i am just getting old and deaf.

i loved the ‘intruder alert’ bit at the end.

No, it’s pretty quiet. I can look for another/similar line for him that might be a little louder.

This must appear somewhere, in the background, or a menu screen? 😉
