No B5, sorry.

 

I'm leaning towards cutting all the moon stuff except the bit where Bob and David watch it blow up.  I'll have to see how the music works, however.

Could the explosion scene from Apollo 13 fit in there?

Where were you in '77?

The "expensive looking explosion" from The Muppets movie?

Perhaps you could whip up a list of movies you do own?

Don't own it ;-)

I do have the first two, however.

Any ideas as to what movie Palpy and Anakin could be watching yet?

Had an idea for what Palps could be secretly watching in those office scenes where he switches off the screen every time someone enters the room, but it's pretty damn twisted. ;)

Revenge of the Sith. It would explain why Palps knows everything.

This would be funny if Palpatine and Anakin were watching ROTS at the opera house, and just after he watches the scene where Mace Windu and Ki Adi Mundi talk about sensing a plot to destroy the Jedi, he says the line "the Jedi are planning to overthrow me."

To make it extra meta, the hologram Mace and Ki Adi are standing at could be showing Palpatine saying "once more the Sith will rule the galaxy!" to which Mace states "I sense a plot to destroy the Jedi."

I think ROTS being the movie within the movie would cause some sort of rip in the fabric of space & time, ultimately destroying all life. But that's just me. ;)

I was of the mind Palpy would be watching something that reflects his evil soul.

I like the idea of Palpatine watching ROTS. It reminds me of Spaceballs. "What the hell am I looking at? When does this happen in the movie?" Great, now I have to watch that movie again.

In the Opera House they could be watching...

The Emperor's New Groove Opening Song

or something from Annie musical

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6UIiT6ry6zQ

John Denver's 'Annie's Song'

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HkGS263lGsQ

or my favourite. Elvis covering Tony Joe White's 'Polk Salad Annie' from the 'That's The Way It Is' concert film

I like the idea of Palpatine watching ROTS, or another thing. It could imply that the reasons he can forsee the future is because he's watched all of the films.

Anakin could walk in just as the Lucasfilm logo comes up, and the title and crawl play as they're having their conversation.

An episode from any soap opera would also work well for the opera scene. The tackiness of the viewing material would contrast nicely with the grandeur of the opera hall.

I'm definitely with that. It would explain why he foresees the future all the way until Episode VI, but perhaps he had to stop watching for some reason which would be why he doesn't foresee Darth Vader reverting to the good side (so if there is any way you could hint at or imply that he didn't get to finish viewing the future then you should fit it in).

I think ROTS being the movie within the movie would cause some sort of rip in the fabric of space & time, ultimately destroying all life. But that's just me. ;)

I don't think that matters in a ridiculous edit :)

Lol, the movie could cut out right before Vader decides to take Palps out in ROTJ.
