Worst Edit Ideas — Page 100

Replace all the lightsaber sounds and blades with the original unedited footage, but keep everything else as is.

While you’re at it, reinstate the original audio of Ewan McGregor making lightsaber noises.

OOH, I forgot about that!

Dub in select Denis Lawson lines from the BBC TV show New Tricks to give Wedge Antilles more than one line in TROS.

Edit: Wait, maybe this isn’t that terrible of an idea.

Better yet, don’t bring Ewan McGregor into this. Get some random nobody to do the lightsaber noises and have him say things like, “pew pew” every time a blaster or spaceship fires.

Reminds me of this classic meme format:

Hoping someone would see it 😃

The gates of heaven have opened.

That’s pretty good.

Give 3PO, R2 and Chewbacca camouflage ponchos like the rest of the rebels on Endor.

That’s…not a terrible idea.

It is when you visualize it.

R2 would just look like he’s in one of the ghost costumes from Charlie Brown Halloween. He’d just need a single eye hole near the top.

Dub in the stormtrooper who gets clocked by an Ewok boulder saying “I got a rock.”

Change the whole franchise into something like this:

Add a gigantic, flashing neon sign on the front of Jabba’s palace that says “Jabba’s Secret Palace” on it and has a giant arrow pointing to the entrance.

I swear one of the Lego Star Wars shows did that exact joke and I was excited to say “Wish granted!” but now I can’t find any proof of it online.

INT. CLOUD CITY - DINING ROOM

THE MIGHTY DOORS TO THE DINING room slide open and the group enters the dining room. At the far end of a huge banquet table sits Darth Vader. Standing at his side and slightly behind him is Boba Fett, the bounty hunter. Faster than the wink of an eye, Han draws his blaster and pops off a couple of shots directly at Vader. The Dark Lord quickly raises his hand, deflecting the bolts into one of the side walls, where they explode harmlessly. Just as quickly, Han’s weapon zips into Vader’s hand. The evil presence calmly places the gun on the table in front of him.

VADER: We would be honoured… if you would join us.

Han gives Lando a mean look.

LANDO: I had no choice. They arrived right before you did. I’m sorry.

HAN: Why you dirty, stinking…

He picks up a thick custard pie from among a large selection of pies on the table and smashes it into Lando’s face. Lando hurls a coconut cream pie at Han, who ducks. It splatters into Leia’s face. Not realizing why she has been hit, Leia flings a chocolate cream pie at Boba Fett. It misses and plops into Vader’s face.

And, as is the case with the great-pie throwing scenes, misunderstanding piles upon misunderstanding, until everyone in the room is hectically engaged in splattering pies into each other’s face.

Add this to Return of the Jedi:

Comp in the new starcruiser hotel in nearly all major space scenes throughout the saga.

Done very selectively, I think this would actually be awesome. Ditto the Star Tours vehicles. Put them in as background easter eggs, like the Millennium Falcon in ROTS.

Edit: But since this is the Worst Edit Ideas thread, they clearly replace the Tantive IV in ANH and blow up the DSII in ROTJ.

Battle of Exegol, the Starcruiser is there, and the camera zooms in to see families of what appear to be Earthlings vacationing in there using footage from eventual home video cameras from attendees (wearing t-shirts and jeans and with unflattering raw audio from the camcorder), probably playing the game that depicts a battle. Then that ship gets shot down while charging one of the destroyers.

“I thought they had no Navy!”
“It’s not Star Wars characters, sir, it’s just… people.”

When Rey looks off to the distance before she and friends head off on their mission toward the start of TROS, add the ghosts of her parents.
