Worst Edit Ideas — Page 56

Continue the scene from TROS where Rey bemoans that the wayfinder got destroyed, where Luke reveals that he used his powers as a Force Ghost to shield Kylo’s wayfinder from harm when Rey set fire to his fighter. He explains that this is why he was in the right place at the right time to catch the saber she threw at him.

Replace all footage of Darth Vader with YouTube videos of cute adorable bunny rabbits.

Don’t replace the entire shot; just motion track the YouTube video over the top of the space Vader occupies in frame.

I foresee arguments arising about which moment exactly to start adding the adorable bunny rabbits when editing ROTS.

Seeing as Vader was only in that movie for 5 minutes, it only makes sense to add them in after we’ve seen Anakin get burned to a crisp and writhing in agony while the medical droids fix him up.

So, the logical conclusion is that we add the bunny rabbits the moment Anakin gets his helmet.

I contend that Anakin becomes Vader when he’s given the title by Palpatine, after cutting Mace Windu’s hand off and pledging himself to Palpatine’s teachings. So the bunny rabbits cut in mid-shot as Palpatine begins the word “Vader.”

Phoneme-splice the medical droid in ROTS that says “ooh-bah” so it says “boob-ah,” and give it the Pepe “booba” meme eyes whenever it looks in Padme’s direction.

I absolutely love this one as a Bad Edit Idea because it’s the exact sort of thing I could see somebody very earnestly trying to implement unironically.

Start inexplicably putting them over C3PO

In TROS, change C-3PO being unable to translate from Sith to C-3PO being unable to translate from French.

Poe brings them to Kijimi because Zorii speaks French; this can be dubbed over easily due to her helmet. Babu Frik can be cut from the film entirely, or alternately, they can go to him first but he is unable to help because he only speaks German.

Someone’s gotta be obsessively pedantic, how do you think I come up with this stuff? 😉

Luke: You fought in the clone wars?

Obi-wan: Yes. I was once a jedi Knight. Same as your father.

Luke: I wish I’d known him.

Obi-Wan: He was the best star pilot in the galaxy, but he was a terrible warrior. I should know. I sliced his limbs off. He was an incompetent child who never listened to a word I said. But enough about him. I understand that you’ve become quite a good pilot yourself… And he was the worst excuse for a friend I ever met.

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

Replace the TIE scene on Pasaana with the following:

With the goal, of course, of making her less of a Mary Sue.

“Well, darn.” -Kylo Ren

I love how you can see her lightsaber flying out of her hand when she does the flip.

But we can’t turn back. Fear is their greatest defense. I doubt if the actual security there is any greater than it was on Aquilae or Sullust. And what there is is most likely directed towards a large-scale assault.

Replace the “Luke tries to kill Kylo” flashback with a scene splicing together Adam Driver getting shot at in the woods in The Dead Don’t Die and Mark Hamill shooting a sniper rifle at children in the woods in Village of the Damned.

Replace each crawl with an opening narration by the main character of the respective films.

This narration continues as the interior monologue of the main characters ala Lynch’s Dune.

The monologuer is Tommy Wasu

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.

That’s right, I’m back bitches. Hopefully for good.

I would actually be totally cool with someone like Adywan or anyone else making an edit where the Death Star II explodes with visible debris. Just not shots of it landing on Kef Bir.

I could unironically see a shot of the debris landing on Kef Bir working well as part of the SE celebration montage.

Add in a famous historical monster (Adolf Hitler, Osama bin Laden, Genghis Khan, etc.), and make him a side character in any of the movies.

Adolf Hitler giving the Starkiller Base speech?

Always knew that speech symbolized the Nazis.
