It doesn’t look quite like that GIF in the movie, no…

I’m all for making ROTJ more nasty but I would do it by adding more gore to the Ewok’s camp. Showing dead and partially eaten stormtroopers etc.

Something like this?

On the other hand, something like the above would be more at home in Return of the Ridiculousness.

Carrying this over here before it gets forgotten.
The dialogue from the film could be used for a stormtrooper voice.

Luke’s hologram message to Jabba could be replaced by Mark Hamill’s Sprint pitch from The Simpsons, so he is really just spamming Jabba.

Oh and hopefully somebody with the FX skills can overlay a baseball-bat onto Luke’s Saber in the Ridiculous Jedi edit… complete with wooden soundFX!

OMG please post that in the right thread…and then start working on your fx skills. 😉

Pasted from the ‘ROTJ is the best Star Wars film… discuss!’ thread as requested… and I can probably pull that FX off by the time you get round to this edit as I’m learning all the time.

10-pin bowling sorta soundfx would be funny too, as people fall off the skiff… what the hell is a skiff anyway?

VIZ TOP TIPS! - PARENTS. Impress your children by showing them a floppy disk and telling them it’s a 3D model of a save icon.

Honestly, by the time I get to this movie, I’ll probably just have to think what I want and Sony Vegas 43 will just make it happen.

Man, seeing R2 shoot a baseball bat outta his head would be too awesome.

Makes me want to start on this today.

Admiral Ackbar: “Once the shield is down, our cruisers will a perimeter create”

Edit: damn timing. RIP 😦

Nice of you to consider it but going by his assistance to comedians paying homage to his performance I can’t imagine him minding.

Yeah, I just wanted to mention that that I didn’t come up with it because of or in light of his death. 😃

Was watching Despecialized 2.5 last night in preparation for the TFA blu-ray and hearing Ackbar’s line made Yoda’s atrocious phrase pop into my head (unfortunately).

When Vader tells The Emperor “As you wish,” add Peter Faulk voiceover from The Princess Bride explaining it means Vader loves him.

Replace the three Force ghosts with ghost babies (including one Yoda ghost baby)

Jim Henson’s Force Ghost Babies?

Where were you in '77?

Had a silly thought yesterday about Yoda dying multiple times, re materializing each time.

His last words to Luke become more nonsensical, finally culminating in “Beware the dwarf.”

Where were you in '77?

I have an idea:
Luke does not unmask Vader and drags him off the shuttle and leaves him behind

Death Star II explodes too early and killed the rebels inside the Falcon

When Luke jumps off the plank and into the sarlacc pit, he fails to grab the plank and falls to his death

The Emperor does not die and Luke gets killed Obi-Wan style

Wilhelm scream for every person falling

So, Luke can come back from death?

Yep, appears as a force ghost. But those are suggestions of alternate ending.

A bit goofy but will work, At the moment when Luke is about to get his Lightsaber, He does an awkardly stare with the Emperor while it cuts to Lando, then cuts back to again, staring till Luke gets his saber.

Love it.

I’ve restrained myself from using a laugh track because it’s too easy (I believe the one time I used it in TRM is the only time I’ve used it) but that fits pretty great.

Bingowings’s “Cooked by Ewoks” comment in Adywan’s thread had me thinking for an alternate ending:

Remove the Ewok capture/BBQ scene from earlier on. Add it into the ending celebration with yubnub, such that the party escalates rather darkly. End on the pan up from the funeral pyre (in a way that doesn’t clearly show Vader). Sky/fireworks/wipe to credits.
