O:  That's impossible, isn't it?
Q:  Coward.
O:  I don't think so.
Q:  No.
O:  You seem a little on edge.
Q:  Not likely.
O:  Curious.
Q:  Thanks, my young friend.

It's the dialogue between the two, it just doesn't make sense to me, but maybe I'm just not getting it.  I'm fine up until he says "No" in response to "I don't think so". 

Listen to "no" again.  He actually says "no?"  It's from when the Jedi Council tells him Anakin will not be trained...and he's incredulous.  "No?" 

QG: You're a coward.
OB: No I'm not.
QG: (disbelief) No?
OB: You seem touchy, what's your damage?
QG: What do you know?
OB: Interesting, now you seem defensive.

This is what I was going for, anyway, with the dialogue available to me.

The "thanks, my young friend" makes no sense, but it's not supposed to.  It's ridiculous, which is followed up with the catchphrase of the edit:

OB: What?

btw, that "what?" works in two ways - it can also be seen as Obi's reaction to what the droids are doing in the background.

lol, the battle droids start walking backwards and Obi-Wan is like "wut?"

I know I’ve made some very poor decisions recently.

Nice!

Is there anything the Palpy hologram can have a hard time pronouncing?  It would be a nice hint at his true identity.

What, like the clip I posted before where he can't get "stunted slime" right?

Yeah! Maybe have him slip into the Sidious voice, make it obvious. Maybe have him refer to the Chancellor as "stunted slime"
Have him call Maul stunted slime. Like he's so proud that he finally got it right that he's using every opportunity to practice it.

My favorite part of the edit so far are the beats of people staring after someone says something crazy. I could do with a few minutes of two characters staring at each other. Maybe Qui-Gon and Watto?

That's what I mean.  You sly dog.

Actually, you could add some eccoed voice for palps before the stunted slime line. Like he's thinkin "say it right, say it right!", or practising "stunted slime in my sight".. and when it comes to pronouncing it, he messes up and says it wrong... and everytime he says it wrong have the "wrong" sound from TV trivias (and laughters from sitcoms would rock)

What part seemed random to you?  Seemed reasonably consistent to me.

Although random is fine too.

*watches again*

Yeah, it is pretty consistent. Scrap what I said before.

whats with the echo?

The L-R and rear L-R channels are full of dialogue echo.  It's a well known problem with Star Wars audio.  There isn't much I can do about it.

Because I'm extending scenes, which means I have to extend music as well.  Ideally I would find music without dialogue in the scene, but usually the best I can do is to find a part where the echo isn't as bad.

Hilarious. It's even funnier when all put together

How about Obi-wan yelling Noooooo! when he and Qui-gon run away.

 

You can never have enough Obi-Noooooo!-ing
