Ridiculous new text on the tractor beam control panel could be funny. Not to mention on the super laser firing control. "Destroy planet."
Have some hapless Imperial or droid fall to their doom in the background while Obi Wan is working? That probably happened on the Death Star several times a day. ;)
It wouldn't hurt to have your doctor look at your scalp. I've been losing hair on top for a few years now, but it turns out I have some sort of condition that's behind it. (And it's treatable.) I was so surprised, I forgot to ask if it's going to grow back.
Like I don't have enough aggravation. >_<
Yes, now there are two of them! They did a little creative dubbing to explain why Cousin Oliver turned into a different super kid genius. Pity he didn't have any scenes with Mike Brady Dr. Mortenson.
Baltar is seen still pursuing the rag tag fleet (via footage from The Magnificent Warriors) with no explanation as to why he hasn't aged like Adama.
There is a tiny bit of footage not seen in the series with Adama making a log entry in his quarters. A photo of Apollo can be seen on his desk.

John Candy gave me a good laugh as well. :D I haven't seen Dumb and Dumber in ages (not really my thing) but this could work as well. Or we go good ol' Jack in Shining.
Lando really hitting Han could work as well. In combination with Chewie and Leia not really caring about it, this could be really funny. Han could feature a black eye after that. For the rest of this movie and R.O.T.R.-n.t.b.c.w.R.O.T.R. (Return of the Ridiculousness - not to be confused with Revenge of the Ridiculousness) since it wouldn't have time to heal.
Can you do that, Frink? :D
Good ol' Jack could also be sitting around on Hoth somewhere. ;)
The proper sepia tone was restored for the 50th anniversary in 1989. I still have my LD of that edition.
There has been a small omission in the mono soundtrack since 2000. From the IMDB...
"The 2000 Warner Brothers DVD edition suffers from print defects due to shrinkage of the materials used in the restoration, and cuts out one line of Dorothy's which occurs during a reel change when Toto is being taken from Dorothy. As she whimpers Toto's name, there's a stutter edit where an off camera Garland repeats the first few words of a line, "Oh, To, oh Toto." The audio production team (who were doing the restoration) went back to the script and found no correspondence. So, the apparent mistake was excised."
Hopefully, this will be fixed for the 75th anniversary video release this fall.
Is it too early to be thinking about the poster? This cries out to be made ridiculous...
With the theatrical version of the pilot out on Blu Ray, (IN SENSURROUND!) I hope the series is in the pipeline.
If you haven't seen the theatrical cut of Galactica 1980, it's pretty hilarious.
Obi Wan's drinking problem could make a return appearance in the cantina. ;)
Universal didn't get into Blu Ray right away on account of the ill advised format war. (I think they were exclusive with Toshiba for a while?) Getting as many catalog titles out the door was imperative, so whatever existing HD masters were handy got used, warts and all.
Warners was playing both sides of the street, so to speak.
It would be nice to see Lucasfilm not treat OOT fans like unwanted relatives at Thanksgiving dinner in the future. For the amount of money it costs to attend one of these cons, I don't think an simple honest answer to a question is too much to ask.
We know there are people on the inside who feel about the movies the way we do. The GOUT, half assed as it was, (thanks to George's unwillingness to get new transfers done) did mean somebody heard us asking.
For Disney, it would only make them more money.
Maybe a pair of fuzzy dice, or one of those pine tree air fresheners hanging in the Falcon cockpit? It only needs to be in a couple shots, as the real dice in the movie vanish anyway...
If you're a disgraced politician trying to talk your way out of the latest case of Cantus Keepitus Inthepantus, get a better backdrop to your press conference. ;)

Ok, I might need to start watching this show.
Yes, you need to start watching immediately...
If only BSG and Buck Rogers had aired on the same network, there would have been the inevitable crossover episode. Then, we could have had Sheba and Col. Deering team up and kick Cylon butt. And I could have died with a smile on my face.
And how the hell did I not see this thread before now?
Wow. Somebody wasn't taking any chances of offending anyone. Any clues to the age of the print?
Another musical suggestion, a callback to the Linda Ronstadt gag in AOTR. Bail Organa could be listening to her in his speeder?

Could be... What was the running time of the original? This one was only about 20 minutes...
As it was originally a Walt Disney Presents episode, I presume 50 minutes?
Here's an old press photo with caption...
Sorry to hear it wasn't uncut. Maybe it was censored separately for educational prints?
Lucasfilm does some rumor control.

I'm just saying someone you've collaborated with on a project is going to be more noticeable when they vanish without explanation.
Other people do sometimes get bored and move on. Even the funny ones.
Oh, I didn't recognize the acronym. Was he actively involved in any projects?
Did TFN's reputation ever fully recover from the whole "Yoda farts in Episode III" debacle?
I don't get it...
We're in a new golden age of silly SW internet rumors. And rumors mean traffic on a website.
Is that the one set right after TMP?
