“Leia has sent her spies, Rick Sanchez and Ariana Grande, to Tomato Town to investigate the rumors of Palpatine’s return…”

At the end of AOTC, add in a passionate and romantic sex scene between Dooku and Palpatine.

Bail tells Obi-Wan and Yoda about the coded retreat message from the Jedi Temple ordering all Jedi to return because the war is over.

Obi-Wan says, “Well, then we must go back!”

Yoda and Bail stare at him for a moment, incredulous at his apparent stupidity.

“Why you stuck-up, half-witted, scruffy looking Nerf™ herder hoarder!”

Leia makes a personal attack on Han’s hobby of collecting Nerf guns. Recolor his blaster to be brightly colored and plasticky accordingly throughout the films.

Better yet, after Leia says her “Nerf-hoarder” line, have Han pull out a Nerf gun on Leia and say, “Who’s scruffy looking? It’s Nerf or nothing!” before he fires a foam bullet at Leia’s face.

Remove Yoda from ESB. The Force is better when it’s more mystical and ambiguous, like it was in ANH. Having a character sit down and explain its powers to the main character ruins it.

Oof.

You’ve got to ask yourself one question: “Am I making Carrie Fisher’s ghost proud?”
Well, are ya, punk?

“Lord Vader…can you hear me?”

“What?!”

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.

“Back away! I will deal with this jedi slime myself!”

“Your move!”

“You fool! I’ve been trained in your jedi arts by Jar Jar Binks!”

It’s not a Darth Jar Jar edit; edit the scene so Grievous immediately trips and falls down to the wheel bike without Obi-Wan having to do anything.

In AotC and RotS, deepfake Jango Fett and all the clones into Billy Dee Williams, thus realizing the writers’ early idea of having Lando be a clone from the Clone Wars. Then, since Lando was confirmed in Solo to be attracted to droids, add to the battle scenes some background CGI clones who are…romancing the Battle Droids.

Make the “eyes” of Darth Vader’s helmet blink like Ewok eyes.

Have the camera-blocking Ronto walk across the screen at key dramatic moments in every film.

Digitally add a mustache and stubble to Luke’s face in RotJ, then digitally remove that same mustache, artificially smoothing out his face in the process, and giving his upper lip a strange, uncanny valley quality.

(Sorry, I accidentally pressed “Quote” instead of “Edit” on my first comment. That’s why it’s two comments in a row.)

When we see the death star plans in ANH, change it to text that reads “be sure to drink your ovaltine.”

On Ach-To in TROS, when Luke says “you have everything you need,” begin a montage of Rey using her engineering skills to repair her wrecked ship with the assistance of Luke, with “Jedi Rocks” as the music for the montage.

IV: the medal ceremony music is replaced with Jedi Rocks
V: Jedi Rocks begins playing as part of Han’s torture when he is lowered onto the torture table in Cloud City
VI: I like Lapti Nek, so let’s move Jedi Rocks to the end instead, to replace Yub Nub/Victory Celebration

I: Anakin presses the wrong button in the starfighter and says “oops” as Jedi Rocks plays (I might be subconsciously stealing that from The Ridiculous Menace)
II: Jedi Rocks is playing during Anakin and Padme’s romantic dinner and fireside chat
III: Jedi Rocks is the new Order 66 montage music (this is the only non diegetic use of the song in the saga)

VII: when Rey puts on her helmet while sitting alone on Jakku, Jedi Rocks plays inside the helmet
VIII: Larma D’Acy and Connix hear Jedi Rocks over the radio when trying to call for help on Crait
IX: Poe, Finn, and Chewie are listening to Jedi Rocks as they play holochess

Trench Run.

Edit: No, wait, I take it back, Neerb’s is perfect.

So many suggestions and no mention of the cantina scene from ANH?
