Worst Edit Ideas — Page 102

I feel like the “Are we the baddies” conversation would work best as a conversation between the stormtroopers Ben maneuvers around to deactivate the tractor beam. They’re already chatting about something in the movie, and it’s funnier yet more fitting when it’s low-ranking personnel asking these questions.

This isn’t the best edit ideas thread.

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

“There’s been no one for so long. Who are you?”
“I’m Rey.”
“Rey who?”
Rey looks out to the distance. She sees the ghost of a gungan out in the distance. Rey turns back to the old woman.
“Rey Binks.”

Yoda’s swamp soup.

Actually, I think they might’ve made an official recipe for it for Galaxy’s Edge, but don’t quote me on that.

Actually, there’s a worst change: add the in-universe Coke and Sprite bottles from Galaxy’s Edge.

Even worse, add a lengthy product placement sequence in TPM before the podrace begins that’s basically just an in-universe Coke commercial:

“The Boonta Eve Classic is sponsored by Coca-Cola! Experience the intergalactic sensations of refreshing drinks that are as cool as midnight on Hoth! Made from the finest ingredients from across the galaxy, these out-of-this-world refreshments are absolutely wizard! And now, let the race begin!”

Just have Luke put down his blaster during the Death Star chasm shootout and take out a Coke and just calmly drink it then turn to the camera and say “There’s nothing like the refreshing taste of Coke during a firefight.” then pick up his blaster and start shooting again. The stormtroopers keep blasting the whole time but never hit him.

Just replace the thala-siren in TLJ with a soda fountain. Rey is disgusted that Luke would pick Sprite instead of Coke.

The water trough that Finn drinks from in TFA is colour corrected to look like Coke and has the in-universe logo on the side of it.

Plus, instead of Finn grossing out, he is digitally manipulated so that he gets up and says, “ahh…” from the refreshing taste.

Or, alternatively, change the fountain to a Pepsi fountain, leave his revulsion, and add “sponsored by Coca-Cola” disclaimers all over the start of the movie and end credits.

Digitally turn the entire wampa sequence from ESB into it’s own coca-cola commercial. Start by making the wampa the coca-cola polar bear. And instead of Luke and his tauntaun being attacked, the bear gives them both a cola. Luke and the bear go to a cave. Luke plays a game with the bear while hanging upside down. Finally, instead of Luke slicing the bear’s arm, Luke uses the force to give the bear his own cola. They wave a nice, friendly goodbye to each other, and the scene continues.

Instead of snowspeeders, edit in the Coca-Cola Christmas truck driving up to rescue Luke and Han.

Now you’ve done it! Now we have to make all of the snowspeeders Coca-Cola Christmas trucks. We have to!

Instead of the usual meme edit ideas, which we now have a separate thread for, here’s one that’s actually in the spirit of the original intent of this thread:

Add a planet-exploding superlaser to the droid control ship in TPM to rhyme with ANH and TFA.

I actually considered putting that into a serious edit a few months ago. It was mainly because I realized Sidious’ dialogue when he was told about the Gungan diversion would make a lot more sense if he was being told that the Federation had a planet-destroying superlaser. It would play out something like this:

SIDIOUS: “She is more foolish than I thought.”
GUNRAY: “I assure you, the Queen’s assault will be no problem. We have installed an experimental superlaser on board our control ship. In just 30 minutes, the laser will fire, destroying the entire planet.”
SIDIOUS: “This will work to our advantage.”
GUNRAY: “Do I have permission to use the weapon, my Lord?”
SIDIOUS: “Wipe them out… all of them.”

Then there would be several insert shots of the weapon charging throughout the battle, accompanied by “Weapon ready in X minutes” voiceovers. Anakin would destroy the command ship just when the laser was about to fire, because it’s a movie. I abandoned the idea pretty quickly though, because I realized it was stupid.

I can’t decide if this is a good or bad change but what about making Anakin’s dream about his mother into a vision he sees in a Dark Side cave to rhyme with TESB and TLJ? Probably a bad change, right?

Add some real-world relatable music.

When Finn tells Rey, “We go together,” the song by that title from Grease plays on a diegetic boombox. In Huttese.

When Palpatine first speaks to Kylo Ren, “At Last” plays similarly.

My stance on revising fan edits.
