Info & Ideas: ESB and ROTJ Wishlist — Page 288

On ROTJ you should use stop motion animation with star wars figures to add a better lightsaber fight.Have Luke vs Vader where Luke wins by jamming his lightsaber into Vader's chest.

Have Vader fall to his knees as Luke force grabs Vader's lightsaber and crosses the two lightsabers to Vader's neck (like how Anakin did to Dooku).

Then have the emperor say,kill him and become my new apprentice.Then have Luke turn around and say,no,I am a Jedi.Then have the emperor say,so be it,as the emperor pulls out his own lightsaber and then we get to see Luke vs the emperor where Luke uses two lightsabers to fight him.

Then the emperor uses force lightning to knock the lightsabers out of Luke's hands and zaps Luke with a bolt of lightning as well.

When Luke is lying on the ground have the emperor walk over and is about to strike the Jedi down with his lightsaber,until it is blocked with another red lightsaber.

As the emperor turns and sees Vader blocking the blade.Then we get to see Vader vs the emperor (red vs red).

Better?

No, please.

Then have the emperor say,kill him and become my new apprentice.Then have Luke turn around and say,no,I am a Jedi.Then have the emperor say,so be it,as the emperor pulls out his own lightsaber and then we get to see Luke vs the emperor where Luke uses two lightsabers to fight him.

Dear lord no.

Then the emperor uses force lightning to knock the lightsabers out of Luke's hands and zaps Luke with a bolt of lightning as well.

No.

When Luke is lying on the ground have the emperor walk over and is about to strike the Jedi down with his lightsaber,until it is blocked with another red lightsaber.

Noooooooo.

The idea of Ewoks having weapons on hand makes sense if they have had run ins with the Imperials before.

But the idea of a past conflict should probably be limited to one shot. Someone a while back had the idea of a rusted burnt out AT-AT.

That would be very cool. Or perhaps more credibly, a scout walker(if they've already been established to that point).

The thing I like about the AT-AT shot though is we know how powerful the walkers are from the previous film and to see one burned out on the forest moon would likely make the rebels say "what did that?".

You could even reorder the end scene of the ewoks with the imperial helmets as drums and put it into the heroes arrival at the village for dinner.

So if the Ewoks have weapons already to go then that would mean perhaps a attack is imminent or they're protecting their village from a threat of attack.

Maybe the Ewoks plan a last-ditch assault on the Imperials, the rebels see their outmatched, and so they join forces?

SSWR did a great video with Trooper helmets displayed as trophies along with animal skulls when the Rebels are carried into the village.

Did anyone get that?

Hopefully it's still available somewhere.

You have to walk a fine line though to enhance the Ewoks fighting capability yet not make it look like they're kicking the Imperials butt.

That butt kicking would only come when they joined forces with the rebels.

Ahhh.....symbiosis! :p

They could form a symbiont circle...no wait!

Put it in 3PO's storytelling to the Ewoks around the campfire! Perfect tie to the PT!

:p

There was a bloody hand on the cantina floor...

 That's been fixed.  ;)

I'm not opposed to a more gory battle, it'd probably be more realistic.  I just don't want it to turn into Saving Private Ryan (which is a good movie BTW). 

Me either. You can have it be fierce with violence(they all had that) but not gore.

But anyway. We're debating this when we all agree that the battle as is doesn't work and isn't credible enough.

So we can quibble about blood splats later.

Ewoks = make more ferocious YES

Make battle larger YES

Show signs of a existing imperial/Ewok conflict from the start YES

You left out the Frokturian MegaTiger.  Fail.

I think Luke should cut Vader's hand off, exposing the wire.  Then, after he throws his lightsabre away, he starts winding the wire around Vader.  THEN, in between shocks of lightning, Luke pulls really hard on the wire and Vader jolts upright, spinning like a top.  THEN! Vader ignites his lightsabre and starts whirling toward the Emperor, with the dangerous red blade slicing around and around.  As he gets close to Luke, Luke has to jump over it like a jump rope.  The Emperor jumps in, hiking his skirt to mid calf as he jumps in time with Luke.  The Emperor starts in on some rhyme about Sally and penny candy.  Then Luke does a hand stand!  HE's JUMPing over the LIGHTSABRE ROPE while STANDING! ON! HIS HEAD!  The Emperor is ticked, so he pushes Vaders helmet (he's still spinning) and he starts to wobble away (but he doesn't fall over).  Then Luke and the Emperor shoot a game of horse eopie (<- PT link).  The Emperor is about to lose, and he's lifting is fingers about to shock Luke some more... And Luke sees out of the corner of his eye that Vader is wobbling very hard like he's about to topple to the ground.  Which he does, right between the Emperor and the short guard rail to the pit of forever doom.  Thinking fast, Luke tells him his shoes are untied and the Emperor falls for it.  Bill and Ted give him a wedgie, and then Luke pushes him over Vader's fallen body so that he goes careening down into the pit.  But Bill and Ted go with him and they play a game of 20 questions on the way down.  Then the Emperor decides to join their band "Wylld Rankors!" and they save San Dimas Highschool.

You'd probably have to do it with action figures or something.

Ok, I'm done with the gifs......

No. Just no.

 Agreed.

could the imperials be strip mining endor to build the death star? when the rebels enter they could fly over large machinery and numerous quarries.

RE ben_danger: I don't know if you've seen this movie "Avatar", but a lot of your ideas are very similar to what they did. And as derivative as that movie may be, any wildlife helping the battle or strip mining will be labelled derivative of "Avatar".

Must have missed that one. I did catch this great movie called "Dancing with Smurfs" though which was thrilling. Some ideas are similar I admit, but I was thinking of Princess Mononoke when I was typing previously.

I do like the Idea of Han transporting his consciousness into a stuffed bear to win them over perhaps?
