YES!!!
I wish I had seen these earlier.

On a side note, I can't wait to hear Alec Guiness speaking about himself in the third person the way you've been doing with Ewan.
Same here for both statements.
Unfortunately, I don't think the Frink plans to "ridiculize" the OT.
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.
In regards to the bathing scene, I think it would be better to keep the movie family friendly.
Well, the order isn't really a big deal, so I don't think you need to worry about it.
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.
It works now.
But couldn't it be done again...? :P
I can't see the pic :(
For the DVD menu, you could have a subtitle/caption reading: "The farce is with us!", using a play on words with "force" and "farce."
The U.S. or Canada I would think. I think Rube Goldberg was an American, but I'm not entirely sure.
Works really well. I think you synced it perfectly, but it was hard to tell for sure because my internet was lagging. I agree about Nute Gunray and I think you should also have something for the intro--maybe someone dancing or beat boxing.
The death of the major character should be made more obvious by preceding the gunshot with the light from a laser scope on the character's forehead--and after the fact, maybe cut to a celebration scene (maybe the end celebration from either Episode I or VI).
Too bad you aren't planning on making "A Ridiculous Hope", "The Ridiculousness Strikes Back", and "Return of the Ridiculousness". There's a lot of potential there and repeated lines which could be transformed into running gags.
An idea for George's appearance:
He could be censored out or blurred.
I also agree with the previously stated idea of the Wookies and other species without clothing having the naked body part blur over their crotches.
Why don't you make the whole section of the movie about Anakin turning into Darth Vader, Order 66, the fight between Obi-Wan and Anakin, etc. into a bad dream? Anakin could wake up at the end and there could be birds chirping in the background. And then end the movie with that. You could make the whole storyline of Episode III pointless just by doing that :)
You could include the birth scene and Padme dying as part of the dream. Then you could use the scene of Anakin waking up from his dream about Padme, therefore making it seem like he doesn't care about the part about him becoming Darth Vader and killing all the Jedi, just about Padme.
That actually works really well with the scene. I think you should leave the fade out as it is.
Have you checked out the soundboards on starwars.com? It might be easier to use those since there is no background noise or music. But then again, it might be harder to actually use them since you can't download them or anything (as far as I am aware). But it might be worth a try, especially since you can mix different lines together on the site.
I don't know much about this kind of stuff though, so I'm not sure if it would work or if it's been mentioned already.

Callback to TRM?
Pad: Something's happened...I'm pregant.
Ani: Is it my baby?
Pad: *speechless*
Ani: It's not my baby, is it?
Pad: *speechless*
Nute: Now there are two of them!
Ani: It's not fair!Probably better to save "Now there are two of them" for when they realize it's twins at the end, with ghost Nute delivering the line of course.
The "Now there are two of them" gag can be used more than once. It should be used for both scenes.
This is off topic, but I'm not familiar with fanedit.org and am having difficulties figuring out where I can go and what I can do to download AotR. Can someone help me out here?
EDIT: Never mind, I just realized that I have to become a member and I'll get all the info I need when I do.
Who's the third? Is it the other Ric Olie who posted something a while back?

Yes there are...I'm totally making that my signature! EDIT: Title
What about my other suggestions? Does the Frink approve, or should I forget about them?

Perhaps the baby could end up being Obi-Wan's? I remember a scene where Obi-Wan visits her and asks if Anakin was the father. Maybe she could tell Obi that he was the father.
