Yes, ARH matches TRM and I think ARH sounds better than ANR.

I prefer ARH, for the record.

 You know very well what I'm talking about. Your project is more of an alternative, not a revision.

"Ridiculous alternative" doesn't quite have the same aesthetically pleasing flow "ridiculous revisionism" has, though.

Boss Nass and his ball could turn up and the end so it 'rhyme' with TPM. Same goes for the Ewok party at the end of ROTJ.

Screw it he could just turn up in all of them :-D

I'm not sure how this could actually work as a gag, but I recently realized the resemblance between this...

and this...

The movie version of the S.O.L corridor is probably more usable from a technical standpoint though.

 I stopped watching after two seconds, because I had already planned on using Coming to America as one of my prime Vader sources and I don't want to get spoiled by random internet guy's ideas (yet).

Also, what sorcery is this where the "https" is decoded correctly by the forum software?

 Yes, and I have it...but how to use it?  In theory I could replace the end of the detention block hallway with it, but that would look pretty weird.

You could just put MST3K on one of the many monitors in the Death Star control room. ;)

 I was about to post that there are similar corridors in Alien and 2001 when I thought it would be nice to add this sort of thing in the background :

I wonder if there's anyone skilled enough out there to make this for me:

One of those absurd ideas that hits me out of the blu when I'm waking up.

Han's blaster fire in the trash compactor ricochets all the way up the garbage chute, bounces around the Death Star corridors, finally escaping via one of the hangar bays. It bounces off several celestial bodies, travels through hyperspace, and finally finds it's way to Tatooine, where it strikes the still smoldering remains of Greedo. Yes, they're too lazy to clean up dead bounty hunters in Mos Eisely.

That "shooting Greedo" could be a running gag, randomly when Han shoots at something off screen through the entire trilogy, just cut back to Greedo exploding.

Make everything Han shoots at shoot at him first.

Some more ideas:

  • When Ben meets Luke first, change the dialoge from "I don't remember ever owning a droid." to "Obi-Wan remembers owning R20000."
  • When Luke wants to persuade Han to rescue the princess make them say:

Luke: They are going to kill her!

Han: Better me than her.

And then they just leave. Maybe swith around some more dialoge to make it look as if Han wants to go and Luke doesn't.

Han: Marching into the detention area is what I had in mind.

  • Whenever Luke hits someone with his Blaster, Han says: "Great shot, kid. That was one in a million."

Oh my god, that would be amazing...and really easy.  Fantastic suggestion!
