For some reason the lounge music with the droids in the control room hit me just right! Actual LOL

btw, anyone know where I took the music from?

I cannot guess, answer? it reminds me of these:

Numerous recordings have been used in films, sometimes as an elevator music cliché (for example, near the end of The Blues Brothers).

^Reading that made all the Empire State of Mind rickrolls worth it ;-)

Note to self: Find a way to work "I care" in somewhere.

Having the holographic message from Naboo Rickrolled would be a laugh beyond price "The death toll is ...."

I already have a Rickroll planned for another spot.  Don't know if I can make it work tech-wise, however...

I think I used that gag a few times.

Been lurking here for years. Anyway...

Having a lot of fun with this edit since many of the guardrails inherent in most fanedits are altogether unnecessary here.

One small suggestion is to add a sound element to the goofy transitions. The one that came quickly to mind was the ones used in the old 1970s Superfriends cartoon where you had the noise that accompanied the three approaching comet things and the big lens flare at the end. Also, I would love to hear, at least once, "Meanwhile, at the Hall of Justice," during a cutaway to the Jedi temple. The Superfriends narrator could work very well throughout, though I can't remember how much dialogue he used to have during the average episode and how many phrases would be available.

Welcome Fleabite.  I'm honored that you made your first post in this thread after all this time.

I may have to look the Superfriends up...I remember watching it some but don't recall the specific noise.

I was just about to post that exact thing, corellian77!

Thanks for that.

And it had the "Meanwhile..." line in it as well.

Excellent!

Ha-ha, I remember that! I'm sure I can find a place for that once - one of the establishing shots of the Naboo palace after the Nemoids have take it over should work nicely.

Welcome to the credits!

I need something more real.

I have many Gungans...

Announcing a very special subtitle contest!!!

I got stuck writing one of the subtitles (you'll know which one), so I'm asking everyone to do the work for me ;-)  The winning suggestion will get a special mention in the credits.

"Who's the freaking kid?"

"What the hell is YIPPEE?"

"Gotta love John Williams!"

"Just let 'em go. I don't know why we ever bother trying to shoot at anyone in the first place."

"Ever wonder how George managed to squeeze actors into these costumes?"

"We are expendable. I just now realized that."

"We'll never last until the closing credits."

"We have been programmed to rape your childhood."

"None of us have ever shot anyone. Ever. Record intact."
