The "Name that Movie/TV Show I Can't Name" Thread
Time

Hopefully someone will be able to identify this next movie, 'cause I’ve spent decades in the dark and the Googles do nothing.

In the summer of '96, I watched on TV this old movie. I can’t say how old it was, but it was in colour, so I’d wager it’s from the late '50s-early '60s. IIRC, it was a UK production, 'cause I recall at least most of the cast having English accents. I don’t remember what the plot actually was, but I believe it was set in a seaside town somewhere in the 19th or early 20th century, and it featured pirate ghosts (I recall a scene where an old, dry skeleton took on its lost flesh, becoming a flesh-and-blood pirate, scaring the bejeesus out of some mortals.). This wasn’t a horror movie; it was some type of fantasy-adventure flick aimed at kids, and I think it may have been a Disney production.

The Star Wars Duology: Divergent Edition (AKA the ANH/TESB fan-edits DuracellEnergizer would like to make but probably never will)
Time

Another few additional alterations I’d make to ANH:DE (These are the last ones, I swear.):

ADDITIONAL CHANGE #3

Recolour all Star Destroyer engines red.

IMPETUS FOR CHANGE

I won’t reveal the reason behind this change yet. I will say it ties into a change I have in mind for TESB:DE.

ADDITIONAL CHANGE #4

Remove all shots of the Death Star gunners during the trench run sequence.

IMPETUS FOR CHANGE

Seems rather silly to me that an interstellar civilization capable of FTL travel and blowing up planets wouldn’t have thought to invent automated weapons systems.
