Worst Edit Ideas — Page 114

When Kylo Ren smashes his mask in The Last Jedi, replace his line “Prepare my ship” with “Alert my Star Destroyer to prepare for my arrival”

When Luke removes Vader’s helmet the face of Sebastian Shaw is replaced by a young Hayden Christian from costume test footage grinning awkwardly so it matches the Force Ghost at the end of the movie

Also all footage of Vader is dropped a few inches and his boots have visible lifts to match the footage from Revenge of the Sith and the Kenobi TV series.

In the same way the prequels need micro edits at the end of shots that extend just a little pit to long for pacing, we should extend those shots even further using AI tools.

Darth Vader (spoilers) dies are the end of Return of the Jedi but as some bootleg merch and unconcerned “journalists” point out “Darth Vadar Lives”. So we can show Darth Vadar escaping in his tie fighter and losing control when the shock wave from the Death Star 2 explodes just like his near namesake did in the first film. https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/AbkAAOSww8FlLbHu/s-l1200.jpg

I grow weary of people taking the piss out of David Prowse’s on set delivery. He was wearing a mask so he had to yell for the other actors to catch their cues. He knew the voice would be recorded in post production but was led to believe he would be doing it. He was an actor. If given the task he wouldn’t have performed it in his own Bristol accent. Would it be as good as JEJ, doubtful, but it wouldn’t have been the same voice he used on set. Anthony Daniels also knew his lines would be rerecorded so he too used his natural voice. Lucas intended Threepio to sound like a used car salesman but when he heard Daniels on set voice he called him back to exaggerate that performance and Threepio became a fussy butler instead. Despite the crappy way Lucas treated Prowse (and the other Darth, Peter Serafinowicz) Prowse and JEJ both praised eachother and he did a lot of charity work before his death. But yeah it would be funny. Artoo was originally going to speak English too.

You could call me out directly, no need to beat around the bush. I thought this post was just for comedy reasons. If you feel I’ve gone too far then, I’m sorry. Hope there is no bad blood between us

Nah bad blood. I am just annoyed by the prevalence of the Darth Farmer thing. Someone made a video where fans in the biz took Prowse to a sound booth and recorded him giving an actual Vader performance and did all the post production filtering and it was good. As iconic as JEJ…? probably not. If it had been there in 1977 we wouldnt know that though. I wish I could find that video

Darth Farmer is the mocking nickname given to Prowse based on the on set recordings. So called because his Bristol accent is more associated with agricultural archetypes, at least in the 70s it was.

Surprisingly great compared to the one back in 70’s behind the scenes. If they used this, I’d have no objection. Though I still don’t understand the link between this and “Darth Farmer”. It SORT OF, I express the words SORT OF reminds me of either the Emperor or the Horned King or a character you’d hear from The Lord of the Rings.

As I said, in British English a West Country (not Scottish 😁) accent is associated with agriculture, much like a Southern US accent might. That’s how the nickname stuck.

i would like a fanedit of the original versions of the original trilogy and i mean the versions that were released on vhs and aired on tv not the theatricall versions that restores deleted scenes and replaced puppet yoda and puppet jabba with AI jabba and AI yoda and i wish lucas did replaced puppet yoda and puppet jabba from rotj with cgi yoda and cgi jabba and made cgi jabba in rotj look like how he looks like in a new hope because it looks weird for younger fans who watches the movies seeing how different yoda looks like in the original trilogy and how diferent jabba looks like in rotj after seeing him in a new hope and of course i want that fanedit to do what adywan´s did with the emperor look in his esb fanedit

Replace all the characters played by puppets with actors in suits and all the actors with CGI and all the CGI with puppets.
