Making Sullust to Endor Video

[Darth Servo]

How about Luke, Han Lando or other rebel pilots showing some 5 o'clock shadow when the Rebel fleet arrives?

[Ted C]

How about Luke, Han Lando or other rebel pilots showing some 5 o'clock shadow when the Rebel fleet arrives?

Or shaving in the cockpit.

Also, some pilots munching fast food might be appropriate. Palpatine would have to have a few meals delivered to the throne room, too.

Heh heh... Vader's life support system takes care of his body waste, so he can snicker at Luke's discomfort. Luke wonders why Palpatine never needs to take a pee, but from our omniscient viewpoint, we see Palpatine's box of discrete Depends undergarments.

[Ted C]

And eventually, Luke just ends up saying "thank God I'm wearing black".

[NecronLord]

Lando Calrissian's quest to seduce one of his gunners on the trip?

[Darth Servo]

How about Luke, Han Lando or other rebel pilots showing some 5 o'clock shadow when the Rebel fleet arrives?

Or shaving in the cockpit.

Complete with removing the helmet, and cream.

Also, some pilots munching fast food might be appropriate. Palpatine would have to have a few meals delivered to the throne room, too.

Monolith Burger!!! If you've never played the 'Space Quest' video games, you're really missing out.

[Vehrec]

Remember, Palpatine killed his own master in his sleep. Therefore, for maximum lulz, have him trying to go to sleep, but jump awake at the slightest disturbance, no matter how tiny. This may explain his advanced high-tech bed, with medical equipment and its ability to allow a full nights rest in just a few hours.

Also, I support Monolith Burger. Rouge squadron pitstop!

[consequences]

Scene breaks could have the whole '17 minutes, 1 hour 33 minutes, 11 hours 57 minutes, 4 days 6 hours 27 minutes, please god just kill us now' schtick displayed against a black screen.

Crix Madine can come onscreen at random intervals, even in places he shouldn't be like the throne room and the bunker(preferably through the door Han and co. are trying to get to), to say "Good luck, we're all counting on you".

Have the relief for the stormtrooper outside just walk by Han and co. completely oblivious in less than five minutes, then the commandoes they left outside walk straight past them into the bunker. Ten hours later, they walk back out again with hot coffee and relieve the stormtrooopers, who again go straight past our intrepid heroes without noticing.

Flash to Admiral Piett bullshitting with his crew "Okay, if we all drop dead, and our ships explode, and the Rebels mysteriously get given super powers, then maybe they can-"(line shamelessly stolen from Phil Foglio and Nick Pollota).

Have the Ewoks set up their traps in the first ten minutes. Then have them stand around for another thirty. At that point, have them start building an amusement park. When the captured team is led out a day later, have them all scramble to get off the rides and rush back to the ambush.

[Teleros]

I suppose you could have the ewoks spend the time making traps, but that may not be the effect you're looking for.

Honestly, given how strong the little buggers are, I doubt it'd take that long. Hell, you could have Luke with his lightsabre cutting the logs for them . They may also have been working on them before the Rebels set out from their village.

[Silver Jedi]

Ackbar: All of you shut the Hell up. Don't make me turn this fleet around!

The crew of one of the capital ships all sing "99 Bottles of Beer" (or 999) the entire way through.

[Yuri2356]

The Emperor delaying the meeting because Matlock is on?

[Aratech]

Perhaps Admiral Peitt playing a Star Wars version of Risk, or the like?

[Wyrm]

The secretary is this person:

Claustrobics - low-space exercises for the cramped.

Rebel pilots goofing around with their readjustable gravity seats.

Imperial shuttle being outrun by a NASA space shuttle. Space Shuttle Pilot: "Hehehehe! Loser!!"

Vader and Luke lost in the DS corridors. "WHY did they make this thing so goddamn big!?"

While lost, Vader drops by the Death Star Canteen to get a bite of the pudding whateverthehellitwas in an Eddie Izzard kind of encounter.

[KhyronTheBackstabber]

Han Solo and the ground assault team being lost in the Endor bunker for hours? And the bunker consisting of one hallway with one door at the end?

I could see this.

Leia: You're lost.
Han: I'm not lost. I know exactly where I'm going.
Leia: We've been walking around for nearly 12 hours, just admit it.
Han: Woman...I'm not lost.
Rebel #1: Are we there yet?
Han: No!
Leia: We would be if someone would just stop for directions.
Han: Hey, who's the one who made the Kessel run in less then 12 parsecs?
Leia: Here he goes again.
Rebel #2: I got to pee.
Han: You should of thought of that before we left.
Rebel #2: But I have to go.
Leia: Let's just stop for directions, and he can use the bathroom.
Han: Sweet heart, I don't know if you've been paying attention but this isn't the ideal place to ask for directions.
Rebel#3: Ow stop it. STOP IT!
Leia: What the hell is going on back there?
Rebel#3: He keeps flicking my ear.
Leia: Knock it off.
Rebel#4: I'm not doing anything.
Chewie: Rrrawlll.
Rebel#3: Are too.
Rebel#4: Are not.
Han: If I have to come back there, I'll give you something to cry about!
Chewie: RRAWLL!
Han&Leia: What!
Chewie points to a door.
Han: HA! See I told you I wasn't lost.
Leia: Some day you're gonna be wrong..
Han (mocking): 'I just hope I'm there to see it.
Leia:...Dick.
Rebel#2: I still got to pee.

[CaptainChewbacca]

Ok, a few of my ideas:

1. An X-wing pilot rolling down his window and tossing out a trucker bomb.
2. A scene like the stairwell scene in Ghostbusters, done inside the bunker.
3. Darth, Luke, and the Emperor playing Jenga 'You're using the force!'
4. Ewoks getting stoned somewhere.

[Thag]

Well, it's a long road trip kind of setup, right? You could have red squadron singing 99 bottles of beer on the wall (or whatever they drink), or playing 'I spy' while Ackbar gradually goes nuts.

Or, somewhere online there used to be a skit called 'Vader's employee evaluation'. I'll go poke for it in a little, but the gist of it was an Imperial HR type guy was going over Vader's management abilities. You could have Palpy give Vader his monthly TPS review.

[Dark Hellion]

How about a scooby-doo scene for the bunker, with commandos being chased by stormies in a hall of doors? Complete with terrible 70's music.

Luke, the Emperor, and Vader busting out a bong to kill the time? Vader plus bong definately equals something funny. Bubble-bubble-bubble-HOOOW-WAAAAAH.

Tollbooth scene for the rebels, a la Blazing Saddles. [worn out Akbar cliche] It's a toll! [/akbar]

A pilot sleeping in his cockpit having a dream about Star Trek, and then upon waking wishing he had a phaser, or Shatner's hair?

Space hitchhikers?

Piett and the annoying bridge officer arguing incessantly about having to wait, because he wants to watch Troops? "The Emperor has something special planned for them." "So, the episode of troops is a special too, and the Emperors plans probably don't involve tasing some jackass!"

Lando taking a dump in the Falcon's toilet and responding with "Hans never going to forgive me for this"

I am out for now.

[Lord Poe]

Here is some of their "justification" for the Coruscant-to-Geonosis trip taking a long time: it takes a while to organize the whole arena spectacle--call all the VIPs so they can clear their schedule, arrange to get the animals on loan from the local zoo, advertise, sell tickets, get food for the concession stands, and of course HOURS to actually get everyone into their seats in the stadium.

Oh, the prequels will be a sequel video. I can't wait to do the scene where Anakin is toasting on Mustifar for weeks on end, waiting for the Emperor to arrive.

[Gandalf]

Oh, the prequels will be a sequel video. I can't wait to do the scene where Anakin is toasting on Mustifar for weeks on end, waiting for the Emperor to arrive.

"Damn it's hot. All I have to eat is ash..."

[DPDarkPrimus]

Scene in the Death Star Throne Room:

Vader: So how's C-3PO doing?
Luke: He's fi- wait what? Why do you care?
Vader: I built him.
Luke: Bantha poodoo.
Palpatine: No, it's true, he wouldn't shut up about it the first time I met him. "Oh my protocol droid I built myself is probably going to malfunction if I don't get an outer casing finished for him!" Then he became a padawan and forgot about the damn thing.

[Knife]

Scene breaks could have the whole '17 minutes, 1 hour 33 minutes, 11 hours 57 minutes, 4 days 6 hours 27 minutes, please god just kill us now' schtick displayed against a black screen.
.

Oh, make a play off of 24 with the annoying clock countdown everyonce in a while to move between scenes.

[CaptainChewbacca]

Oh, the prequels will be a sequel video. I can't wait to do the scene where Anakin is toasting on Mustifar for weeks on end, waiting for the Emperor to arrive.

"Damn it's hot. All I have to eat is ash..."

I imagine this: Anakin is lying next to the lava, billowing smoke and ash around him. 10 full seconds of silence, then he coughs and sighs. Kinda makes you appreciate how LONG it owuld be.

[Typhonis 1]

Emperors secretary comes in wheeling a meal cart. She leaves and squeaks three times as they use the fiorce to catch a feel.

Vader tortures Luke by bringing out pictures of Amidala.

Luke in the head bitching about the stormtroopers or red guard watching him.

vader seeming to zone out and the Emperor asking which movie he is watching on his internal display.

Luke Vader bonding time talking about the bad parts os kiving on Tatooine.

R2 D2 broadcasting a porno for the waiting stormtroopers, imperial officers , and rebel commandoes outside.

Vader and Luke norticing how jumpy the emnperor is in his sleep and doing thinks to startle him awake.

Vader trying to onvince Luke to join the Empire, Emperor throwing his two cents in mentioniung Luke could also have his own sexy secretaries when just at that moment they are contacted and told the rebel fleet is arriving. A chocking noise can be heard as Vader mutters about bad timing .

[Silver Jedi]

You could have red squadron singing 99 bottles of beer on the wall (or whatever they drink), or playing 'I spy' while Ackbar gradually goes nuts.

"I spy with m--"
"Hyperspace swirl"
"Damn it! How'd you know?"
"Becuase, that's all it's been, every time, for the last 12 HOURS!"

[harbringer]

Wayne AFAIK trekkie ass-pulling went like this: The shadows mean its 12 hours later (despite endor being a moon and noone knowing the length of the diurnal cycle) therefore hyperspace is slow since it is 12 hours later it must have taken them 12 hours to get there (because trekfool decided the shadows were wrong) so everything must have taken 12 hours to happen. They then came up with sleeping while in transit X-wing pilots (hey maybe they are really timelords with a tardis and hot tub) luke and vader detouring to have a look at moss growing on endor, Han and leia probably being talked down by stormtroopers "come out dont make us blast our way in there" and so on. All becuase some retard decided against common sense that it took 12 hours

Or alternately, as Geonosians like their arena spectacles, and probably have them regular, all Dooku had to do was say 'right let's break for lunch. I've arranged a treat.' then put them in the 4:20 excecution session.
