I think more sound effects need to be in there. More blaster shots, gunshots, etc. (It can be lower in the mix than the song.)

Yeah, I agree.  Originally the concept was song only, but things have evolved, and I need more sfx to make things more consistent.  Hopefully I can get away with minimal sfx in each scene however.

The clones need to have their usual laugh when they off the Jedi.

Agreed.

Plo Kloon(?) could curse when he crashes his ship. Actually, all the Jedi could curse when they buy the moisture farm.

Love it!

Falkor could holler "Atreyu!" as he and Obi Wan fall.

I will see if I can find something for him to yell, but that wouldn't make much sense.

The Fax machine(?) could emit Artoo's various screams.

I had an idea of digitizing a voice repeating "PC LOAD LETTER...PC LOAD LETTER..."

The main killer rabbit scene, where it's attacking all the knights at once might work even better.

 I'm keeping the first scene, mainly because I adore Graham Chapman's "Jesus Christ!"

^Well done.

Wouldn't a lightsaber cauterize the wounds? ;-P

Yeah, but he's an alien. Different biochemistry may react to lightsabers differently. =P 

That's some strange living.

Another option for the coded message from the Jedi temple saying the war is over, courtesy of Bingo.

Apparently a remake from just one year earlier, somehow.

Pretty far off-topic, but Smithers is working on a fanedit of Jumper.

A little bit of totally off topic trivia but along with the "Paul is Dead" conspiracy theory was the little remembered "Klaatu are the Beatles" conspiracy theory.

People who couldn't take the biggest band in history splitting up clung to the hope that the almost anonymous Canadian band were the Fab Four still belting out records in disguise.

Conspiracy theories and aliens, you can't really have one without the other.

I blame Wilf.

It's probably a bit too late now seeing as the conventions of the series have been established but I was watching Police Squad! the other night I thought the "tonights episode" gag would translate well with the crawl.

 The first two crawls were completely different styles, so I don't know why this one couldn't be different as well.  Not sure exactly how to incorporate it, however...

Frink will have to find a way to use this gag from the third Naked Gun film in his next edit of course. ;)

 WRONG THREAD!

But that's how the ot.com meme works.

To get the Police Squad! joke to work just cut off the Star Wars music after a few bars and replace it with the Police Squad! Theme and line up the episode title in the crawl with the incorrect one on the Police Squad! soundtrack.

Too late to use (even if you wanted to) but this would have been amusing in the opera house scene (probably not safe for some work spaces).
