No, thanks. George Lucas has already done it. He’s a pro. I couldn’t possibly hope to beat him.
You know what would really ruin the original Star Wars movie? Giving it non-laughable dialogue, non-obnoxious sidekicks, or basically any redeeming features whatsoever other than a great musical score and likeable characters.
Oh, wait.
I don’t often laugh out loud at posts, Terrifel. But that had me in stitches.
Oh my aching ears! :eek: Did she not know she was about a half (fill in the appropriate musical term) off?
I am reminded of a bit of cubicle art I saw at Edwards Air Force Base in the late '70’s:
Star Wars proved three things:
1 There will always be fighter pilots.
2 There will always be fighter pilot bars.
3 CCRP will never work. (Continuously Computed Release Point - if you don’t get this, well…)
Damned clever.
And stay off my lawn, you young punks.
At the end you’d find out it was all a dream, with Luke waking up back in his trailer to to find Grandpa (Alec Guinness), Sis (Carrie Fisher), Uncle John Black (Harrison Ford), Stepdad (James Earl Jones) and Mom (Anthony Daniels) standing around his bed, all finally laughing and happy for the first time in days now that he’s come too and is himself again. Grandpa remarks “That does it- you are never buying that old fashioned angel dust again, but the new one with the bug fixes”. Mom says “You mean P.C.P.3.0?” and Luke says “That sounds really familiar…”, and they all laugh.
He could have included more celebrity stunt casting, like :
…have Bea Arthur as the proprietress of the Cantina.
…Harvey Korman in various alien roles, one of them female.
…Jefferson Starship as themselves!
Then included scenes on the Wookiee planet, with all the Wookiees talking to each other. But no subtitles.
Then have one of the Wookiees watch a porno.
At what point does a drugged-out brunette sing “Somewhere Over the Death Star?”
R2D2 & C3PO played by Herve & Riccardo Montabaum.
“The Death Star Boss. The Death Star.”
