Reminded me of the shortest Science Fiction story ever...
"The last man on Earth sat alone in a room. There was a knock on the door..."
How about rebubbing Vader as Johnny 5?

'Short Circuit 2' is one of the 20 greatest films ever made, don't let anybody tell you different.
It would really pay off in RESB when Vader shouts "Your momma was a snowblower!" to Luke during the Duel.
Or perhaps, Vader as Malcolm Tucker from 'The Thick Of It/In The Loop'...

Although aren't these films supposed to kid friendly so maybe not.
Wait, wait, wait... how about Basil Fawlty as Vader. I would die laughing...

Oh, well great. I'll have to come up with something else to suggest
I'll be happy if the only thing the selling of Star Wars to Disney gives us is this image...
Don't know why but I'm imagining Vader redubbed by Arnold Schwarzenegger would be hilarious. The possibilities are endless with his films and abundance of one liners. It would be like the producers of Batman and Robin had made Star Wars lol

With David Prowse's size it's believable that Arnie would be the guy in the suit.

Hey everybody! It's been a while, but I recently had some crazy inspiration, I suppose. What if the opening scene of RotS was REALLY short? Well, as I was listening to ESB music today, I had the thought to match up the scene with some Battle of Hoth music.

^ Very nice!
I used the hero sting from 'Luke catching his sabre over the Sarlacc pit' for when they leap out of their fighters and start attacking the droids. Think it would work wonderfully at the end of your clip too.

^ Best bit is at 2.40 where they come up and put Lando's cape on like James Brown used to do. But generally about 10% as funny as the concept and talent involved suggests it should have been.

But as I said they can't land at all.
You can thank Doug Chiang for that. Leave it to George to hire the guy who takes pride in claiming that after he first saw Star Wars he ran home to redesign all the ships to his own liking. Have never liked any of Doug Chiang's Star Wars work. Not the ships and especially not the droids.
"Have never liked any of Doug Chiang's Star Wars work"
MADNESS, shear madness I say! How dare you sir, withdraw your comments or I shall seek satisfaction!

As rubbish as it is... Anakin forgot to put the landing gear down... Of course they have legs... Or don't they?
No they don't have a landing gear as seen in AOTC. They just hover by f**king magic.
As to the landing back in Theed, the Astrodroid could concievably hover his pilot's fighter slowly backwards into the alcoves. So it would then dock with the two front support clamps and the rear aperture (Both shown below). Then a member of the ground crew would have to fetch a ladder so the pilot could get out.
Also it's never explained how come all the fighters except the one that Anakin jumps in, have already got Astrodroids sitting in them. Or how this (Shown below) pilot managed to get into his Fighter...

I did not realize how cool the Naboo Fighter design was until I walked through the 1920s airplanes at the Air & Space Museum in Washington, DC.
I know! Look at this photo of the Nboo Starfighter in the flesh...
^ I would have just stood there in awe for about 15 minutes.
Check this moded kit out...

So many things logicaly wrong with the Naboo Starfighter and the hanger. Like it is physicaly impossible for them to land back into those gaps down the side...
Who's to say they have to land in those alcoves? Maybe they just land in the hanger...
But as I said they can't land at all.
Granted they could belly land like a stricken B-17 into the hard marble hanger bay floor and the pilot could rush out before it catches fire. Then some astro droids could use those angry red penis hoses that line the hanger bay to put the flames out. Then a robot arm could pickup the wreck and put it back into the alcove. Maybe that's why the Naboo don't have enough pilots to man all the ships... because 50% of them don't survive the landings.
Perhaps to further speculate... that's why the great Ric Ollie doesn't return to Eps II&III. He probably died trying to land after knocking out the Droid ship. Also maybe Anakin's shorter hair at the end of TPM was less a Jedi Padawan buzz cut and more that his hair was singed off in the fireball on impact.
Still seems like a minor design flaw though to me. Maybe because they are "a peaceful race" they've never had to use the fighters before and nobody realised that they couldn't land them.

Excellent. I hope you find a use for that shot of Hayden staring out of the bathtub. ;)
Any musical plans for the march on the Jedi temple?
Maybe for the last shot of the movie. The entire PT was a dream!
...
I don't have the Oz DVD. I might use that idea but I'm open to others as well.
I think it would add something if somebody managed to integrate the Yoda/Lightsaber footage seemlessly into ESB (Probably not for this edit). At the point we see Luke fight a full-on duel with Vader, all we've seen Luke do with his Saber 'in anger' (In the previous 4 hrs of film) is vaguely wave it at a Wampa in terror (And have a trippy dream about beheading Vader).
We don't really see Ben teach him any fighting skills and then we don't see Yoda teach him anything either. Sure during the Bespin Duel Vader is toying with Luke to a certain extent. But Luke does make a valiant stand against him e.g. knocking Vader off the freezing chamber platform and slicing up his shoulder.
His sudden leap in swordfighting ability is never explained, but he has had alot of time to practice on his own, between the two films. But in most movies we'd be shown a little of that so we're not forced to fill in huge gaps in the narrative with our imagination.
It's not a problem, the film is fine the way it is... it's just an avenue for these projects to explore.
Google is not finding any script. Must be on t'internet somewhere surely?!?
Next best thing find a subtitle file for the room and use that. Or IMDBQuotes/WikiQuotes have all the best dialogue listed.

I think that might have worked. Crow as Jar Jar Binks. I doubt it would have ended up the Caribbean caricature it did.
JarJar didn't sound Caribbean at all. It was the fact that he sounded like a horribly carricatured slave from the deep South.
"Meesa yousa" sounded scarily like "Yesah massa". Plus the whole pattern of the speech was uncomfortable minstrel like, I'm sure Ahmed Best didn't mean to do it. Just like the guys that probably spent months and years designing the Hitler Kettle didn't mean to do it...
I've given myself the giggles making this...

And Darth Vader's revel in STAR WARS: A NEW HOPE is not the climax.
What about the reveal? :p
It's often the reveal that brings you to the climax
Vaders reveal in the OT in ESB is "A thrilling event acting as a climax to a series of events"
I removed Vader from my PT. Much better to preserve the legendary ESB reveal for future viewers. It's arguably the most famous moment in cinema.

sort of like this?:
Criticisms of the temp LS aside... that's the best I've ever seen that scene look. Real dark and moody but with some strong warm light punching out of the image. Actually starting to look like a proper film.
^ Engaging deadpan mode
That suit is very nice. The guy has got some mad sewing skills
On the subject of Bradley Cooper as Han again, I realised...
...when TV producers wanted a Harrison Ford alike actor for BSG they cast Dirk Benedict...
...who also played Face in the A-Team TV show. Who did Movie producers go to for a Dirk Benedict alike for the A-Team movie...
...Bradley Cooper.
He's like the illegitimate nephew of Han Solo!
^ Quite pleased with how this little mockup turned out.

Now that I think about it, I'd love to see Terry Farrell in a Star Wars movie. She's pretty much retired from acting, though, so I guess that possibility's out.
Yes she'd be great.
Can you imagine how amazing it would be if Bruce Boxleitner was in Episode VII as a New Republic General? All I would have to know was that he'd been cast and then all my worries about the new Trilogy would be swept away!

^ "Intersections in real time", most powerful TV episode ever?
After his funny appearance at Wimbledon yesterday (With Gerard Butler) I had the idea that Bradley Cooper would make an amazing Han Solo in the enevitable spinoff. He's got the rugged looks, the charm and that hint of loveable arrogance that Harrison brought to the role...
^ You know he'd own it. Imagine the fireworks if they got a Princess Leia with the right chemistry. Jessica Beil, his co-star from A-Team again?
