Replace the escape pods with 1950's fridges.

lol!

I was pondering how the prequels could have been worse. I came up with the idea that Palpatine was inhibiting the connection with Midichlorians thereby preventing the Jedi from using common sense the Force. Qui Gon discovers Jar Jar who is very strong in the force and has such a unique biology that Palpatine cannot disrupt his Midichlorian Connection. But of course nobody takes Jar Jar seriously and the prequels pay homage to Chicken Little in that regard. So basically, more Midichlorians and more Jar Jar.

The blue elephant in the room.

Have I been making TPM worse or better?  I can't decide.

I think you've been making it better by taking things that would make it worse...

"If you will not turn to the Dark Side, then perhaps she will..."

"Never!"

Lukes ignites his lighsaber and begins swinging it over his head, he then leaps above Vader, who swings his lightsaber. Luke lands, tries to hit Vader in the legs, but Vader jumps, and swings the saber behind his back. Luke leaps above Vader, who leaps backwards. Both sabers clash, emitting sparks. Luke pushes Vader back with the Force, sending him flying several feet away. Vader lands safely.

Palpatine goes "Yeah!".

so Luke leaps over there. He swings his saber as Vader just stands there and cuts his hand.

"Gooood, good, your hate has made you powerful..."

"My anger rather than my hate"

"You don't need any anger Luke, I see you're becoming the greatest sith of all"

"Never"

A guy I know who liked the prequels said that they should put pit-droids in the farmstead to liven it up.

I don't really talk to him anymore...

Vader's lightsaber should be changed to orange, to show that he's not a Sith, but a Rogue Jedi. Luke's lightsaber should be changed for continuity with people changing Anakin's Saber in ROTS to red.

 

Oh, And Darth Vader should only speak in one beep for Yes, two beeps for No.

I might have to steal that for someone in AOTR.

How about adding some more characters to the cantina scene. And maybe some product placement?

When Wedge and Lando make it to the reactor chamber in the second Death Star they find it filled with cute little marketable creatures tied everywhere.

They are so overcome with the concern for them Lando gets Nien Numb to gently fly around so he can cut them free and the Falcon with the added weight of the rescued puppy eyed things cant escape in time.

They all die in a horrible cute fluffy fireball.

That article really needs a reference to Star Wars.

Have Chewie wear a Stormtrooper outfit as well.

So after Luke comes into Leia's cell and Leia says, "Aren't you a little short for a Stormtrooper?" Chewie follows him and she says, "Aren't you a little tall for a Stormtrooper?" and then she bumps into Han and says "But you, you are just right". 

This would foreshadow their romance in a way that the sort of audience George pitches to these days could understand.

Lucas is a man of the world, he knows about women, he knows what they want, not too short, not too tall but just right.

ANH starts normally until the scene in Ben's hut where Luke asks about his dad. "He was the best starpilot in the galaxy, and a good friend..." Then have the shot of Ben sitting back stoking his beard and start some 80s flashback montage song and dissolve into the opening shot of Phantom Menace while having him do a voiceover setting up what it says in the Ep I crawl. Then just show the prequels edited with cheesy Ben and Luke dialog like Ben's telling a story Princess Bride style. It'd probably be funniest if Ben was sanitizing his story as he went for Luke's benefit, like glossing over the sandpeople incident and awkwardly sidestepping the last hour of ROTS, but the clips shown were still violent and spoilery. ("then your father had a civil sit-down chat with the tuskins and got them to agree to set your grandma free" *beheading clip*... "then your father had to rush up to the council chamber to see if the younglings were safe from Vader" *ignites lightsaber*) Make sure Luke is extra whiny all during the story. Make this thing like an 8 hour edit and have Obi-Wan tell his tale like he's half senile. After the prequels are over just wipe back to the hut and have R2 show his hologram and continue the movie.

I know, I know, I said this elsewhere, but since I'm so clever, I have to say it here.  I think this would be the perfect solution to the whole ROTJ Anakin head debate.  See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sebastian_Shaw_(comics) for my justification.  Isn't it brilliant?!

Lol i was talking about that with johnny_ringo the other day.

Star wars needs more bacon at the end.

And all are leading to kevin bacon ;)

If you mean to re-edit the LOTR EEs back into the theatrical versions, then that would actually be a great idea in case of FOTR, because the theatrical version has a badly DVNRed older master for Blu-Ray, so a colour corrected original version of FOTR using the EE Blu-Ray would be something I'd be very interested in actually ;-)
