Mr. Silver
Looks like I need to figure out audio/video editing...
9:33 AM Ms. Rosebud
What are you looking to edit?
9:41 AM Mr. Silver
Well, good ole smilin' George Lucas decided to do some moronic editing to “Return of the Jedi” for the blu-ray version.
8:01 AM Mr. Gray
Saw that. Disgusting.
He keeps changing them, and not realizing that they way they were was why they were so good.
(If you haven't seen it, Vader is dubbed to protest the killing of Luke with 2 lame "No"s – Mr. Silver)
Mr. Silver
With the TONS of stuff that's been written about Jedi and Sith after the movie came out, the final bit with Darth Vader hurling the emperor into the reactor and becoming "good" doesn't really make any sense.
Mr. Silver
Actually...Vader hurling the emperor in made perfect sense, but the reason he did it and the end result don't.
But this morning I realized there are enough existing lines and clips to rewrite the scene.
8:01 AM Mr. Silver
So I want to re-re-edit Lucas's shameful re-edit of the Return of the Jedi.
10:43 AM Mr. Blue
I don't even remember what *actually* happens
10:44 AM Mr. Silver
There's a final fight between Luke and Vader. Luke ends it, saying he's not joining the Dark Side OR killing either Vader or the Emperor.
So the Emperor starts frying him with Force Lightning
Vader looks on...has a change of heart...
Throws the emperor into the reactor.
And then there's a lot of confession and reconciliation as Vader is dying.
10:49 AM Mr. Silver
Anyway.
10:51 AM Mr. Silver
The scene with Vader's silence is rather powerful, especially with his cold metal face thinking unknowable thoughts as he looks back and forth. Then surprise! He comes through for his kid at the last second and kills himself to save Luke.
10:54 AM Mr. Silver
But then Lucas wrecks the suspense by dubbing in "No. Nooo!" (and the emperor somehow not registering Vader's protest). It was moronic.
Anyway...I was thinking about the current Jedi-Sith “traditions” and realized there were enough scenes and lines to put together a much more likely scene.
Vis:
Emperor – "Now, young Skywalker, you will die. (BZZZ!!!)"
Vader watches a bit, looks back and forth. Luke is still alive? His boss can't even fry a novice kid?
Vader (insert) -- "Your powers are weak, old man!"
Vader -- "You should have killed me when you had the chance!"
(Throws Emperor in reactor)
Vader -- "Now I am the master."
Luke -- "Noooo!!!"
Vader -- "Join me! (snip) The emperor! And we can rule the galaxy as father and son!"
Luke -- "I'll never join you!"
Vader (considers) -- "As you wish." (distant clip of Luke falling in Empire Strikes Back...blast again)
Vader -- "All too easy."
Then he poses masterfully, strides away, perhaps showing him leaving the Death Star on the shuttle before the rebellion blows it up, and lives to fight another day.
That's how Sith are promoted...they kill their master. and take over.
11:12 AM Mr. Blue
How about it ends with a Bollywood-style dance off as the credits roll?
11:18 AM Mr. Silver
I like it, heh!
But no, it's for fanboys...I figure I can get a million hits before Lucas yells at me.
11:19 AM Mr. Blue
Hahaha
(Incidentally, there's actually very little chance I'll ever 1. Get a chance to try to make the video or B. Ever do it justice as a rank A/V amateur if I actually try. So, *. If anyone was inspired by that script to try putting it together, just stick an "inspired by Mr. Silver" and a link back here on it, and I'll die satisfied. - Mr. Silver)
(Mr. Gray has a new love interest. – Mr. Silver)
Mr. Gray
But yeah, for as "Republican/Christian" professional as she is, we do share that same sick twisted sense of humor. This could be a good thing.
12:00 PM Mr. Silver
Ooo...an R/C?
Do you at least like the cola?
12:34 PM Mr. Gray
LOL
12:45 PM Mr. Silver
(adding a username to system) "How about...dale c?"
"Ok: d – a – l – e – c ...EXTERMINATE!!!"
12:45 PM Mr. Gray
LMAO
12:46 PM Mr. Silver
Wasn't spelled right, but I thought it.
12:49 PM Mr. Gray
We (he and his new GF) are currently joking about drinking so much that we need to do a back alley liver transplant LOL
12:49 PM Mr. Silver
So you can keep going, right?
Sounds reasonable
"We have a deal on kidneys too."
"No thanks, these are still new from a few weeks back."
12:51 PM Mr. Gray
Exactly
Mr. Blue
All aboard the pain train.
10:09 AM Ms. Rosebud
Sounds kinky
haha
10:10 AM Mr. Blue
You have a train fetish?
10:10 AM Ms. Rosebud
How'd you know?
10:15 AM Mr. Orange
She reads the Boxcar Children books instead of romance novels...I remember those classics.
10:16 AM Mr. Blue
“The Little Engine That Could Get Naughty”
10:17 AM Ms. Rosebud
Oh yeahhhh!
You guys caught me!
11:45 AM Mr. Orange
"Chaz" Bono was talking about how the fake members "don’t look appealing"
11:45 AM Mr. Blue
Fake dicks?
11:45 AM Mr. Orange
And a device that looks like a shoehorn that women use to take a leak like a man at a urinal.
Seems like quite a hassle
11:46 AM Ms. Rosebud
Sounds kinda scary
11:46 AM Mr. Orange
Yeah like....you have to get to a urinal and jam this, like, ramp into your pants to take a leak.
Just to stand at a urinal.
11:48 AM Mr. Blue
Wait, pre-op or post-op?
11:48 AM Mr. Orange
Pre
11:49 AM Mr. Blue
Whatever makes them happy I suppose
11:49 AM Mr. Orange
Guess so
11:50 AM Ms. Rosebud
Why would you wanna use a urinal pre-op?
11:54 AM Mr. Blue
When you pee in a urinal you feel like a god
(All such claims have been verified “Mr. Blue's Big Book of True Facts”...incidentally, the gods are easily pleased. - Mr. Silver)
11:57 AM Mr. Orange
As the one guy in my gym class used to scream: "TIME TO DRAIN THE MAIN VEIN!"
So I guess he felt like a god as well.
11:58 AM Ms. Rosebud
I guess I wouldn't know.
11:58 AM Mr. Blue
Nope
11:58 AM Ms. Rosebud
I should get a ramp.
12:02 PM Mr. Blue
On the same subject, my neighbor's German Shepherd mix has both male and female genitalia.
12:02 PM Mr. Orange
WOW
12:06 PM Ms. Rosebud
I actually had a dog like that before.
I swear it was a male when we got it (definitely had testicles) and then he had puppies.
12:28 PM Mr. Silver
German Shepherd "mix" indeed.
"What's it mixed with?"
"No no...you aren't getting me. It's ALL German Shepherd...but...mixed...you know...down there."
"OOOOOooooohhhh... Huh!?"
12:30 PM Ms. Rosebud
Hahaha!
