Janskeet, you really need to learn about editing and make your own version. I don't know if it could still be called Star Wars, though! ;)

Would it be legal for me to sell my edit if I change the name of the title, the characters, spaceships, and everything else that identifies it as Star Wars?

Okay ... really?

And why is Han's smile inappropriate?  He's not taking their "local trouble" seriously, but once Obi-Wan mentions the Empire he realizes that there's more to this old guy and whiny kid than he initially suspected.

That explains it I guess, still a bit cheesy IMO.

Here's a line I don't understand:

"If you strike me down, I shall become more powerful than you can possibly imagine." Huh? How's that? I don't see how that would make him any more powerful, it would just make it easier for Vader to kill him.

We saw Luke and Vader get struck down and that didn't make them any more powerful.

um Obi Wan becomes more powerful because hes learned the secret of continueing life after death. Something Vader does not yet know! Seriously do you know enough about Star Wars to put out suggestions on how to edit it for the better?

Oh okay, that makes sense now, I wonder why I didn't think of that. I'm not always suggesting how to edit for the better, right now I'm just asking lines and expressions that puzzle me.

You should read the novelizations sometime. They explain a lot of stuff the movies didn't. Extra scenes, too, like Vader and the Emperor talking about Yoda in ROTJ.

Which books do you suggest I read? I'm not into the EU or the prequels, strictly OOT. I've tried to indulge in Star Wars books a few times, but never got anywhere with them.

A 'novelization' is a movie's story adapted into the form of a novel. So Ripplin isn't referring to any EU novels, just the books 'Star Wars', 'The Empire Strikes Back' and 'Return of the Jedi'.

Here's probably the cheapest way to buy them (new) - http://www.amazon.com/Star-Wars-Trilogy-George-Lucas/dp/0345384385/ref=ed_oe_p

Ooh, a laserdisc. The Cheat's playin' something on a laserdisc.
Everything is better on a laserdisc. Whatever happened to the laserdisc? Laserdisc!

Why in the name of all that's sane are you guys still talking to Janskeet and taking the time to answer his ridiculous questions? Stop feeding the troll please.

I love everybody. Lets all smoke some reefer and chill. Hug and kisses for everybody.

I don't know, it could be like Jodie Foster in Contact staring at static on the television and listening to the spin cycle of washing machines to atune her senses to making contact with intelligent life.

So many post are based on the intelligent, thoughtful meditations on these films that after a while it's possible to hit thinkers block.

But when you have someone like Janskeet wofting his brain farts around one of them might just be the grit from which a beautiful pearl of an idea might grow.

He may, in his quest for random, chuck in something accidently brilliant (or that can be built into something remarkable).

As long as he isn't hurtfully insulting people or doing anything against the rules I can't see him doing any harm.

 Totally. As long as you also redub all the actors, re-do the special effects with new models of your own design, and reshoot all the live action. Don't forget to re-score it and it might help if you changed the story completely too.

If you use absolutely nothing at all that is copyrighted by Lucasfilm or 20th Century Fox, then yes.

This would, however, require making your own movie from scratch, and making it different enough so you don't get sued for plagiarism.

I never understood Obi Wan's little smirk after Han says, it's the ship that made the Kessel run in less than 12 parsecs, perhaps it could be removed:

 

Why does Han smile after Obi Wan says: only passengers, myself, the boy, two droids, and no questions asked? Always seemed to me like an inappropriate facial gesture for that moment. I always thought he should have given a serious look in that shot. 

 

 

 Why the f--- would you want to change this? That's brilliant, and it makes total sense.

 

Please, stop trolling.

Spaceballs only got made after Brookes got Lucas's blessing (presumably in the form of greenbacks).

If you talk to Janskeet then you deserve the punishment, the guy just posts stuff he knows will irk you then after he gets 3-4 posts in repsonse, he replies "Oh I didnt get it, but now I do thank-you for solving that puzzle". For reals, ignore him, ignore him now before its too late :p

 There's always Galaxina as well. The improvements on Star Wars include the cantina scene taking place in a brothel and the hologram character getting topless for no apparent reason. Classy.

To all you poeple who have a problem with me, really, what is it that I am doing that is so offensive/annoying? I'm just asking questions. There's problably a good handfull of you that already ignored me so hopefully someone will reply with this quote so you can all see it, but I want to know what it is I am doing that is so annoying? If you guys are pissed off about the donations, I donated now, so the bickering can stop. But to keep the record straight, I never said I was going to donate, I was seeing if others would donate the same amount with me, nobody return my offering so I didn't donate. I appologize to those who misunderstood me.

I think the main problem some may have with you is that you have asked questions that have been thoroughly answered before in earlier posts (I read them all). Some of the questions you ask also seem like they're coming from someone who's only seen the movie(s) once, or twice. 

Basically, you should read as many posts & threads as you can.

 Ive been watchin you Janskeet for a while and now i feel i must comment, your ideas for fan edits like a star destroyer on bespin and stuff seem as if its popped in your head without thinkin it out properly. Many topics that you have brought up in the past have already been talked about and discussed. Im gonna wrap this up by makin a metaphor for you to understand me. Imagine your playin in a soccer team and your in the finals a new player joins who cant play football, keeps kickin the ball in all directions and keeps falling over. I havent been on here for a long time myself, few months if that but i took the time to catch up on whats been discussed and stayed on top of things. U seem like a 10 child tryin to give positive input but have not even bothered tryin to think things through as ive already said. Nobody dislikes u on a personal level, just that please think. Just think. Do or do not fit in, there is no try. It seems your tryin to hard to be accepted and you demonstrate this by coming up with ideas that many find stupid.

Just for the record im not tryin to offend you, just tryin to tell you where your goin wrong and tryin to guide you in a positive manner, my negative comments and purely so you can flip that and turn it into a positive, so im sorry if you feel offended.

Many Regards

Du Twan

What you just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in the room is now dumber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

Every 27th customer will get a ball-peen hammer, free!
