I am not sure where this would fit:

James Earl Jones' performance in Comin to America is comedy gold. There was also a funny video on youtube where someone dubbed the quotes from Coming to America onto A New Hope.

Possible Vader Dialogue:

  • Believe me. I tied my own shoes once. It is an overrated experience.
  • Time does fly fast, my son. It seems only yesterday I ordered your first diaper changed. Now you're a man about to be married.
  • I am looking for my son Luke.
  • Admiral Piett, you have disgraced yourself, and you must be punished. Confine yourself to our royal suite at the Waldorf-Astoria.

 

Watched Coming to America yesterday It's like the writers deliberately wrote lines for JEJ to sound like Star Wars. Frink could probably cut every line into the ridiculous OT

Pretty good idea.  I don't own CtA either but I remember that being funny enough to buy.  But I can't decide if I want to go with JEJ throughout, or completely change up the voice.

The advantage of staying with JEJ is that it will be easier to maintain some sort of related plot, which is something I always try to achieve where possible.
