Take Ben's "Oh, don't worry, he'll be all right," and have it play over the shot of the severed arm on the floor of the cantina.

In the Falcon cockpit, when Luke, Ben, and Han are discussing what happened to Alderaan, add Luke's line, "It looks like sand people did this, all right. Look, there's gaffi sticks, bantha tracks. It's just… I've never heard of them hitting anything this big before."

I like both of these ideas.

I suggested earlier that Obi-Wan not fight with Vader at all and get left behind on the Death Star still pulling levers. Or he could fight Vader after being left behind, give up, and go back to pulling levers.

In the middle of the shot where the Falcon is reversing out of the docking bay, Obi Wan could unknowingly turn the tractor beam on and off again, causing the Falcon to be pulled back in partially before finally escaping.

I did a video on youtube a while back that had Michael Scott from The Office on the rebellion's comlink.

Not sure if it would fit with your edit, but feel free to use any ideas from it if you want.

Fantastic!  My favorite bit was Leia's "shut up!"

You could take this further/have it make more sense by dubbing the guy who briefs the fighters with Michael Scott. Before the meeting starts you could have over the loud speaker "everybody conference room, five minutes." 

That IS pretty good! If all the same dialogue is to be used, then Dwight could possibly be used as well for the conference meeting announcement, since he had one line in my video.

Revenge of the Sith. It would explain why Palps knows everything.

This would be funny if Palpatine and Anakin were watching ROTS at the opera house, and just after he watches the scene where Mace Windu and Ki Adi Mundi talk about sensing a plot to destroy the Jedi, he says the line "the Jedi are planning to overthrow me."

To make it extra meta, the hologram Mace and Ki Adi are standing at could be showing Palpatine saying "once more the Sith will rule the galaxy!" to which Mace states "I sense a plot to destroy the Jedi."

Wedge could keep asking about the tower throughtout the Death Star battle, even as he is forced to flee and then after the Death Star has exploded.
"Great shot, kid, that was one in a million!"

"BUT WHAT ABOUT THAT TOWER?"

 

Just what I was thinking after my post! Of course Wedge could carry this throughout the trilogy...

"That armor's too strong for blasters."

"But what about that tower?"

or

"Hobby, I've been hit!"

"But what about that tower?" (as Luke's speeder crashes)

and

"Go for the power regulator on the north tower."

"But what about... right with ya, boss!"

When Luke reaches for the control board "What's that flashing?" and Han slaps him.  That should happen numerous times throughout the film.

But "flashing" could be replaced with a different object.

Example: "What's that small moon?"

Another idea, when the officer tries to talk to TK-421, then looks out the window to see Luke (in disguise as a Stormtrooper) he could reply "I can't see a thing in this helmet" as he taps his helmet, or he could say "Huh? Oh the uniform..."

Anakin taking out the shields causes a little collateral damage? ;)

Been thinking about this a little bit, and it might be fun to include several different things being destroyed ranging from space battle footage to random other things being destroyed.  Went through my collection and came up with a few ideas:

Akira
Blues Brothers
District 9
Futurama
Ghostbusters
Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy
Life of Brian
Mr. Show (the blow up the moon sketch)
Prometheus
Speed Racer
Star Trek 09
The Tick (chairface moon episode)
Waterworld

Other ideas welcome.

The rear half of Grievous's ship that falls in orbit could turn out to be what crushes Charlize Theron in Prometheus.

Not meaning to lead the current discussion off on a tangent, but seeing all those sparks reminded me of another scene and I just wanted to quickly ask if anyone else thinks this is a good idea:

I think whoever created that had the right idea of adding some sparks there.

make the lightsaber not sound like a bat hitting a metal grating.

Sorry but,

"like a bat hitting a metal grating" = what a lightsaber sounds like.

Sorry for bringing this back up, but I still beg to differ on the consistency of how a lightsaber sounds when hitting solid surfaces.

Episode IV: Vader hits the wall when Obi Wan moves out of the way during the duel, making a sound that "makes sense" for lack of a better explanation.

Episode V: Vader hits the wall and rails during the final part of the duel. The sounds are again much different from the strike on the floor, and sound good.

Episode VI: Luke's wild swinging of his lightsaber against the railings doesn't sound like the ESB strike at all. Though I imagine a rail would make a different sound than a grated floor anyhow. It still sounds right.

Episode I: Darth Maul's taunting of Obi Wan by hitting the floor seems like sort of a mix of Vader's floor strike and my mockup, though with the added mockup sound not as prominent, which I liked.

Episode II: No obvious examples.

Episode III: As Obi Wan and Anakin duel through a narrow hallway, their lightsabers hit the walls repeatedly, leaving sparks, brief glowing cut marks, and again a sound that doesn't quite match Vader's one strike to the floor, though it's not solid strikes and more like brushing against the wall.

By comparing them all, Vader's strike still sticks out a bit as an unfinished sound mix to me. This is not unheard of in ESB, as was pointed out with Leia and Han's kissing scene, in which the object Leia was trying to lock sounded like hallow plastic hitting more plastic, rather than metal mechanical parts clanking. In my mockup, I never REMOVED the sound, I only added a spark sound on top of it, though a bit loud so it would be clear for mockup purposes.

Not sure if there'd be any interest in the idea, but since "Friday" was reprised with a different version in the 2nd Ridiculous movie, maybe reprising "Sandman" with a new version for when Obi Wan delivers Luke to the Lars homestead could be used? Here's the remake of that song, though it might not fit the tone of the edit.
