A bunch of ideas for the prequels that I had for some reason.

The Phantom Menace:
Add Jango into Watto’s pawn shop (directly facing the camera), to mirror with Boba Fett being added briefly into ANH.

Add an extra scene with Maul after falling down the reactor thing, where his upper half catches a railing or something, and he explicitly states that he’s gonna need some mechanical spider legs. (fOrEsHaDoWiNg!)

Throw at least one regular car into the podrace, just for fun.

Cut out the bit where Anakin gets his fighter onto manual pilot, so that everything he does in the space battle over Naboo was just the autopilot the whole time.

Attack of the Clones:
More sand jokes.

Use the overused Tchaikovsky romance music for Anakin and Padme.

More Death Star references.

Revenge of the Sith:
Put the original longer opening back in, but keep all the stuff on the bridge from the final cut, for maximum redundancy.

Instead of landing half a ship, make our heroes only land the cockpit, while the rest of the ship disintegrates in the atmosphere.

Use some lines from Pulp Fiction to add a spicier arguement between Mace and Anakin in the whole “rank of Master” bit.

Replace “Anakin, Chancellor Palpatine is evil!” with “Anakin, Chancellor Palpatine is the phantom menace that brought about the attack of the Clones and the revenge of the Sith! We need our new hope before your new Empire strikes back, so that the Jedi can return!”

Extend the High Ground scene with an uncomfortable amount of staring between “Don’t try it!” and Anakin jumping.
