It chugs along nicely now. Did you add Anakin's grunt when he pulls back on the controls?

No, it's in the original.  My very first draft cut it out, but I realized it's pretty ridiculous. ;-)

You could have told me you lifted the grunt from Awake, and I would have believed it. ;)

With all the unsavory business in Palpatine's office taking place by the window, it might be a good time for another Jimmy Stewart Rear Window cameo?

I'd like to hear Jimmy Stewart's voice used to redub somebody in this or another Ridiculous OT edit. He's got such a special sounding tone, would be v funny.

Since Frink has The Blues Brothers, maybe there's someplace to use that police radio dispatch?

Use of unnecessary violence in the apprehension of the Blues Brothers HAS been approved.

Use of unnecessary violence...has been approved!

Maybe intercut Palpatine's Galactic Empire speech with shots of all the cops and troops flowing into Daley Plaza?

I'm not sure that the Daley Plaza shots would make much sense, but how about the unnecessary violence dispatch being used during Order 66?

Might have already suggested this, but could it be changed to "Order 69"

Yeah, it's perfect for all the Jedi slaughter.

As Palpy is essentially the devil to whom Anakin sells his soul, Order 666 makes sense.

I fully expect Robot Chicken to do that one. ;)

You could also make a gag about the order number being really really long. (Being all sixes, and finally ending on a different number.) Cutting back and forth between the Clones and Palpy as he's getting it all out.

Or going to a different scene, and then cutting back as he's still giving the order number.

That's not bad.  I'll have to see what other numbers he says...although "too" and "for" are pretty common.

I'm going to use the Pulp Fiction dialogue for Mace.

Ok just figured it would give a lot of funny dialogue for the OT films later. Also with the fact that Vader could always be telling Luke. I ain't your daddy. It would make Luke look totally crazy. Just ideas :)

That would certainly be a twist ending.

Awesome! I was getting withdrawal symptoms without a new clip. ;)

I think there needs a teensy bit more reverb on the Vogon voice all the way through.

And you should replace the hologram. Possibly with Coruscant or another planet: just something to make the landing in the ship seem completely pointless.
