Worst Edit Ideas — Page 107

When Luke first touches his fathers saber he should see flash backs of his father in the Clone Wars.

After being beaten and battered by prequel hate, I promise not to be that to the next generation.

No, he should see Anakin and Padme boning

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.

It should be a recreation of Two Girls, One Cup with John Williams covering said music.

Also, Chewie should have subtitles that are just Messytails tweets. His fur is brown for a reason now!

I actually have footage of that scene, put together by TheAlaskanSandman. I’ve probably mentioned it at some point but I’m here so rarely now I don’t remember if I have.

I’ve always thought a group edit of ANH where everyone picked a scene and edited it with their best worst ideas would be fantastic, but far too impractical to organise.

Actually this doesn’t seem like such a crazy idea. And it could be a cool way to involve forum members who like to edit but don’t have the time or resources to do a feature-length fan edit.

I second this!

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

Well if we do RotS I still owe you guys that Weird Science Vader surgery.

I’ve got a couple things that could be fit into that.

I’m not really that much of a movie purist. I really should’ve thought my name out a bit more.

Replace every instance of the Wilhelm scream with the one Ben Burtt does when he’s knocked into the shield generator in ROTJ.

Not just in Star Wars films, every instance

I dont know if this is a “worst” idea, I like it but it doesnt really fit.
Padme is spying/watching during Anakins first session with the Jedi Council.
I created a small clip:

Used a short sequence of “Where the Heart is” (2000)

alternative this clip could be add for the second visit, in this Naboo is also topic during the Jedi discussion.

Like you say, it’s not a “bad” edit, just a strange, midly distracting but mostly inconsequencial one. Interesting idea though. Is there any more footage to work with? With a bit of fleshing out you could stick this in the film’s extended edition (Bobson Dughnutt, that’s your calling).

I think there are a few movies which you can use some footage. The most popular is “The Other Boleyn Girl” and the scene where Natalie Portman is carry the baby. Used for Episode 3.

Maybe we can start a new thread and try to collect footage from other movies which can be used in Star Wars.

Retitle TROS to simply Star Wars, label everything else as The Prequel Saga.

Have all the lightsaber and blaster sounds be replaced with poorly-mouth-made versions, but no one can keep a straight face.

This is off-topic, but is definitely in the spirit of worst edit ideas: I’ve been doing edits of the 2003 film The Cat in the Hat for a friend’s project where he watches the film once a week and documents it slowly driving him to insanity. It’s probably the funniest project I’ve ever been involved with. Anyway, he’s opened up the floor and requested anybody submit any edits of any kind of The Cat in the Hat, no matter how unwatchable or ridiculous, and we’ll then watch them all as a demented sort of film festival. I dunno, that strikes me as exactly the sort of thing this thread lives on.

I can picture a Honda Civic being crudely rotoscoped over one of those Senate pods the two of them fling at each other.

End of ROTS, add a line for Owen:

“Take [the boy] to Anchorhead and have [his] memory erased. That’ll be the end of it, [he] belongs to us now.”

Don’t you mean at the end of Kenobi?😄

Oh, please! That would make too much sense for this thread.
