I always thought a new movie incorporating the old ones would be cool. It would be like Rosencrantz and Guildenstern are Dead compared to Hamlet. I mean come on. The OT has funny moments. I imagine several characters in several scenes of the film totally making a mockery of the main characters. Hell we could have several guys being kicked out of the Tanative IV because they were hitching a ride. Their pod lands on tatooine and they walk for miles to Mos Eisley and end up getting a job at the cantina. The Imperial Storm Troopers are shooting everyone in the cantina so they run out. They are caught by imperial officers so they beat them up and take there clothes. Through a whole mess of mistaken rank and identity they wind up on the Death Star and end up in a jam. Then we could even have them through the whole series. Hell Empire they could work on Hoth and get captured by Boba Fett. But everything the characters do has some direct effect on the story of the Original Films. But it would be really fun and they could have run ins with the main characters all of the time. But it would be alot of work. I would be willing to write a screenplay. But I don't have the finances for something like that.

kinda reminds me of a movie i saw awhile back....hmmm... lion king 1/2?

Thats kinda what pink 5 did!

This thread reminded me of a dub I saw a while back called Geordie Star Wars. Thought you all might get a kick out of it:

Geordie Star Wars 1/7

Bagpuss the Hutt? Bahaha!

Idea: Someone could record a commentary of ANH as George Lucas. The potential for comic gold is massive. He could talk about how much he hated the movie the whole time or something.

That would be great.  He could also change his facts so that he's telling different stories about the same event multiple times through the movie.

STAR WARS

EPISODE IV

Originally this didn't have the episode number, but I added it because I felt this was the somewhere in the middle of a 12 movie saga...

(While Obi-wan is telling Luke about his father)

I always wanted to do nine movies, and felt that this movie was the first part of the middle section and Obi-Wan is basically giving an overview of the prequel trilogy.

(The Death Star Battle)

This was always going to be the biggest battle of the six movie saga until I got to the prequels.

(The closing credits)

What a great ending to a perfect stand-alone movie.  The Empire is defeated, our heroes win!

Something like that, but better.

It would be best to use the 2004 editions then, for maximum LOL factor. :P

I think zombie84 is our resident bogus-Lucas-quotes scholar, so maybe he's the guy to ask for those.

I like it... it might also be funny to include as many actual, yet totally contradictory quotes from Lucas as possible. I know there are plenty over the years.

 

 

 

I'm not one to plug my videos alot but maybe something along these lines could be really funny.

Maybe something like: when you get to a certain scene in the movie, the screen pauses and Lucas pops up and says something bizzare...or...something like that...maybe...sort of...  :P

Best. Thread. I ever missed.

Seriously though, some of these are GENIUS!

like this? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OgtQzCeWv6w

empire had a lift scene? though it did a lift in the SE window background swap

rotj had a lift scene? though it had a lift that luke came out of with the imperials/a lift when luke and vader go to the emporer

well if you count ascension guns... maybe on coruscant?

Natalie Portman should have worn lifts when she stood next to the Viceroy.

Or some sexy high heels.

worst edit ideas?

Gl's final Blu-ray version includes changes to the OT to match the PT:-

ANH:
In Mos Eisley, as they approach the cantina, 3PO steps in some Ronto poo
All the stormtroopers are re-dubbed with Morrison's voice
Mark Hamill is hired to provide new dialogue that turns Luke into the Ric Olie of the OT. Eg.
    "Oh look. Stormtroopers. And it looks like they are going to stop us"
    "Oh look. Obi-wan has cut his arm off"
    "Oh look. It's yavin 4. This is the secret base of the rebel alliance"
    "Oh look. There's leia. And it looks like she is going to give us medals. Well maybe not you, Chewie"
An extended lightsabre fight with Obi-Wan and Vader replaced by CG so Obi-Wan can now do back-flips and they can both twirl their   lightsabres for 5 minutes without making contact.
Biggs is removed from the movie and replaced with jar jar and the deleted scenes at Anchorhead are restored with the new character.
      "Meesa gonna jump ship. meesa gonna join the rebel alliance, Luke".

ESB:
The taun-Taun farts when it becomes nervous
The AT-At's are replaced with 40ft CG snowmen that throw snowballs at the rebels instead of firing lasers, to be more child friendly and also to coincide with the Hasbro cuddly Imperial snowman range of toys
Yoda become CG and floats around on his hovver-board instead of being carried on Luke's back
Chewie no longer strangles Lando but instead happy slaps him few times while filming it on his mobile to appeal to the youtube  audience

ROTJ:
The rancor is removed and replaced by the CG monster from Cloverfield
All of jabbas court are replaced by Disney characters for the new tie-in range of toys
The Sarlaac beak is removed and replaced by a giant sphincter and now farts instead of burps and has giant haemorrhoids instead of tentacles
The Mon Calamari are replaced with gungans. Admiral Acbar now becomes Admiral Acbarbar
The ewoks no longer use weapons but instead tickle and hug the Imperials into submission
New Ewok characters added including Barbie ewok, Lego Ewok and Ewok Bratz to again coincide with a new range of merchandise
All communicators are replaced by the latest iPhone
As Luke is brought before the Emperor he walks over to Luke, pricks his finger and analyses his blood - " The force is strong with you, young skywalker. Your Midichlorian count is off the scale. Much like your fathers"
The ewok celebration is again changed. This time Ewoks, played by Miley Cyrus and Britney Spears, perform a benefit concert.
Luke and leia begin to glow as millions of tiny creatures appear:- the midichlorians come to party
Sebastian Shaw's ghost is replaced by a creepy looking Hayden Christensen (please tell me this didn't actually happen and its just a bad nightmare i had)
