Episode III: Revenge of the Ridiculousness — Page 50

Watched Jumper today, and I forgot SLJ is in it.  Two dialogue sources for the price of one!  Or none, if you like, since it was a gift.

SLJ yelling "time to go home to mommy" is definitely going somewhere.

Yes! 

Someone once suggested replacing Snakes with Sith and Plane with Senate, but I don't know how it will sound.

 I imagine it would sound quite similar to this:

 It would only work if it was possible to make the tone of voice of "Sith" and "senate" sound the same, or similar to, the rest of the line.

 I tried. I originally shifted the pitch up on "sith" and "senate" to match, but then those words sounded horribly distorted and not like Mr. Jackson at all. I can't think of any time he might have yelled those two words, and I don't know if I could handle re-watching the prequels to find out.

 That's about how I imagined it would sound.  Unfortunate but useable, given the unevenness of other lines in my edits.  I can (and will) see if there are places he yells the words.

And yes, pitch shifting doesn't seem to work terribly well, at least when I try it.

In other news, I watched Vanishing on 7th Street.  Somehow, Hayden's character is named Luke, and he even says it - "Hi, I'm Luke."  I don't know where just yet, but I'm sure that will prove useful.  Ideas are welcome.

The editing in this one is pretty good:

I like the way the reaction shots of Yoda and Obi-Wan are. I can't remember if you have it like that already or not, but if not, I think the scene would be improved if you copied that.

 I'm not sure I agree.  The reaction shots are used to avoid showing Mace at all.

Not the first to point this out but that fish-headed-dude from the bar in ST3 sounds an awful lot like Yoda. Any chance his lines could find there way into the ridiculous universe?

 Star Trek 3?  No thanks.

But Grover might find his way into the ROT...

 I guess you're right. Although it might work well to have him freaking out in the background to get a couple reaction shots. It's your choice in the end. You have more experience with that kind of thing anyway.

Star Trek 3 is MOVIE FORBIDDEN?!

 Presumably this is a ST3 reference, NOT THAT I CARE!

Don't forget the edit that gave old Mr. Jackson his best line ever.

Yeah, I think that was already suggested (and approved).

The things that 'Wook and I do for you people...

I just watched Factory Girl.  Ugh.

To be fair to the movie, I generally hate biopics of any sort.

The really odd thing was that Hayden didn't even show up until halfway through the movie, and wasn't really in the movie that much going forward...and yet still got second billing.  I want his agent.
