BTW, what's with the camera shake during the Tatooine establishing shot after Ani's race sequence?

I needed a transition but that one pans over to the ship without any people outside, presenting a continuity issue. And all the other exterior shots are worse. So I just looped the few seconds where you can't see the ship.

You could manufacture references to another famous film by editing the "Oh" sound from Obi-Wan and Hi sound from "Highness" and dropping in "You are breaking my heart" from ROTS.

One of the battle droids says "oh hai" early on in the film.

The subtitles do.

It might be a giggle to hear it in Frinkrish.

It was okay while "Sith" was being bleeped, but then when seemingly random words got bleeped, it just got, well... ridiculous.

Personally, I think just Sam Jackson should get the bleep treatment.  The scene could possibly also benefit from some good, ol' fashioned dialogue swapping for everyone (particularly for Sam Jackson, if you can work in some of his profanity from other movies... bleeped out, of course).

Probably nothing new, but I was thinking something like this:

Yeah, I'm thinking of dialing back to just Sam bleeps.

I forgot you had already put up your version of this scene. Forget I said anything. Or else. >;(

It works well but it might work even better if you sometimes overlaid words that sound rude (but aren't) and partially bleeped them out.

You'd only have to do it a couple of times to get the effect.

I like that idea.  Is that something I could easily do with Vegas?  I may have to try it out.

You should put a 'Double Standards' in there too.

Ok, so, I'm not gonna reveal too much right now, but I have a bunch of old interviews with TPM cast members that Frink could use clips from. Tell me what you think of these lines:

Jake Lloyd

- Wow, lightsabers are cool! Let's go have a lightsaber battle!
- Hi, I'm Anakin Skywalker and I really have to win that podrace because my friends need a [J-type 327 Nubian hyperdrive] so they can get off Tatooine. (how funny would it be for him to say this as an introduction to the Jedi council?!)
- Please? No. Please? No. Please? No.
- Luke, I am your father.
- I don't think most of them are cute.|
- I have no comment.
- My dad loves 'em! (could be fun for him to refer to non-existant family members)(possible replacement for 'they're very dangerous' referring to that fruit he tries to give Qui-Gonn at the market?)
- My sister uses me as a slave. I'm scarred for life. (again, non-existant family)

Liam Neeson

- I've never worked with a ducky before. (reference to Jar Jar, maybe?)

Samuel L. Jackson

- Yoda's the man...or whatever he is.

This one made me laugh out loud... thanks :)

I agree with this.

Also liked the pod race. If Anakin had really lost the race the movie would have been exponentially more interesting. I lol'd at Padme's parting "looks like a dictatorship to me." Was all brilliant.

So, no 'KNEEL BEFORE ZOD!!!' then?

Hey, that would actually be a good place for it.

I'll put it under consideration...

Or it would be good to have him shout 'You will bow down before me!'

 

He says it at the very beginning of superman 1 and superman: RD2

I like that better - it works even if you don't know who Zod is.

Zod: The chair does not recognize the Senator from Naboo.
Palps (to Amidala): There is a matter of procedure...
Zod: You will bow down before me!
Palps: *speechless*
