Episode VI: Return of the Ridiculousness
Time

After the Death Star blows up and Leia tells Han that Luke is her brother, and then Han turns his head, you could have Leia turn his head back multiple times and fill it with all kinds of dialogue. It would be funny if you had them break up (perhaps you could have her say she likes Lando instead--or something completely ridiculous like C-3PO or R2-D2) and end the scene with a shocked Han looking away and skip the kiss, etc.

 

The repetition part has been done before, but there's still a lot you could do with that scene.

Maybe when he sees what Vader looks like, he doesn't like it and puts the mask back on immediately.

He could take the mask off, scream NOOO (like he did in Episode V), and immediately put the mask back on Vader.

It could also be funny if Obi-Wan told Luke that Yoda was his father. Or Luke could think the real Yoda was his father. Maybe that would be more creepy than funny--I don't know.

Feel free to post ideas here, including alternate titles.  I'd like to have something easily identifiable by acronym, but this would have the same one as Revenge of the Ridiculousness.  And The Ridiculous of the Jedi is still ROTJ, so that's no good.

You probably wouldn't want to do this, but since Revenge of the Ridiculousness isn't finished, you could still change the name to Ridiculousness of the Sith, which would allow you to use Return of the Ridiculousness as teh title for Episode VI.

And of course you should use the repetition gag for that--you could have him show up throughout the movie. You could make it so that Darth Vader doesn't kill Obi-Wan, Obi-Wan is still up on the tower pulling levers. So Obi-Wan would die when Luke blows up the Death Star.

Or instead of Luke blowing up the Death Star, the last lever Obi-Wan pulls could blow it up instead. Or instead of impacting on the surface, Red(?) Leader's shot could blow it up.

I like the idea of Obi-Wan destroying things and causing trouble when he's shutting down the tractor beam. He could blow up things and kill people from both trilogies such as:

1. Blowing up Alderaan (that would mean that the shot of the Millenium Falcon arriving at the remains of Alderaan would have to be skipped past to the shot of the Falcon approaching the Death Star--it could be used later though, showing that Obi-Wan was oblivious to the destruction he was causing--and the scene where Tarkin orders the destruction of Alderaan would have to be skipped as well)...

2. Starting the trash compacter (this has already been suggested)...

3. Causing explosions throughout the Death Star (using shots from attack scenes on both Death Stars)...

4. Causing the Super Star destroyer from Episode VI to crash into the Death Star...

and

5. Blowing up the Death Star (which would have to be followed by an "OOPS!"--if you can find or make one--and a rewind of the Death Star explosion).

Unfortunately, I don't think the Frink plans to "ridiculize" the OT.

Surprise!

Yeah, the sight of Natalie Portman in a skimpy outfit has no place in a PG-13 rated film. Especially one where the hero slaughters little kids, gets his other three limbs chopped off, then bursts into flames on camera, while his mentor and friend stands around and watches. ;)

OK, I see what you mean...though for some crazy reason, the DVD version I have has ROTS rated both G and PG on the cover--and not PG-13.

I like it! My only criticism would be that I think Obi-Wan should start beat-boxing as soon as the drums from the song (not the ones originally in the movie) start. Other than that, everything else works well. It took me a little while to figure out who was doing what, but maybe that's just because I was watching on a small screen. Maybe having the pictures arranged clockwise in order of when they begin their singing/shouting part would make that clearer. I'll have to watch it again on a bigger screen though.
