/starwars/ - Star Wars

Can Episode I entirely, have a reworked Episode II be the start of the trilogy, and split the events of Episode III into two separate movies to fix the pacing and to flesh out what happened.

>naboo as alderaan instead

>padme dies off screen, only to be confirmed dead by leia in rotj

>clone troopers are guys in suits not terrible early 2000s cgi

>more of a role for obi wan in tpm

>hayden plays anakin through all three movies

>>4317

I think TPM is the best of the prequels but yeah the story isn't very important, it's mostly filler.

>>4324

That's the problem, it is just filler. Which leaves just two movies to cover the actual relevant material, and that resulted in them being very poorly paced. Episode III especially suffers for it.

>>4323

Should have centered really around Obi-Wan with Anakin as a side character.

>>4323

leave out c3po and r2d2. Having darth vader be responsible for making 3po was fucking dumb

also leave out chewie

>>4330

>Having darth vader be responsible for making 3po was fucking dumb

Should have been Anakin making or owing R2D2 with Padme owning C3P0, seriously they got that the wrong way round. Similar to when Obi Wan jumps out the window in AOTC when it should have been Anakin.

Fucking Lucas, what was he thinking.

The

>I have the high ground

moment was dumb too seeing as when Maul had the high ground it did shit for him

>>4330

Just have C3PO be Watto's translator. Anakin's a slave, and spends a lot of time in the shop, just have him be a friend to young Ani. Problem solved.

>the first parts of Episode 1 completely removed.

>Start off with Anakin when the Jedi Arrive on the planet.

>Skip the Podrace.

>make the battle for naboo the start of the Clone Wars

>strip Darth Maul of his "darth title" and give it Tyranus. Keep Maul around as an accolyte.

>Maul dies at the hands of Obi-Wan and doesn't come back after Obi-Wan has taken a severe beating at Maul's hands.

>Have Tyranus own Anakin and Obi-Wan time and time again.

>Have tyranus be an actual threat to Padmé

>Pass of the writing of romantic scenes to 3d party writers.

>Pass off filming of romantic scenes to 3d party directors.

>Have Anakin turn to the dark side when he kills Tyranus.

> Show the internal struggle in Episode 3, untill he succumbs to the dark side fully in the duel against Obi-Wan.

>Place Padmé's death and the birth of the twins before the rebirth of Darth Vader.

> scrap the droid's "She has lost the will to live" line, in favour of a "force" sound-effect, as Padmé dies.

>Pause for just too long for a heartbeat.

>The force-soundeffect stops when Vader wakes up, and a shot of Palpatines hands going from outstretched to relaxed.

> Leave out the "NOOO" in favour of a silent scene with only a clenched fist of vader, and end the film with a slow pan away from vaders face and fade to black.

>>4373

>Skip the Podrace.

yea no

>>4376

I like it

>implying you can fix the prequels

>>4379

If I had the resources of Lucasfilm I could probably re-edit the existing prequels into something decent.

Starting from scratch though you could make some masterpieces.

>>4330

Lucas said that Star Wars was told from the perspective of the two droids, they were recounting the story in the distant future hence "a long, long time ago". So the droids are needed in all the major Star Wars movies.

>>4374

>podracing is the best thing in the prequels, but you can't deny it's just filler

>inb4 good pilot anukeen

>>4394

And Han's encounter with the giant space worm in the asteroid added nothing to the story but I wouldn't take it out.

>>4392

>Lucas said that Star Wars was told from the perspective of the two droids,

I fucking guarantee you he pulled that statement out of his ass because he thought it sounded smart

>>4398

Its something he has been going with since the first movie, its why those early scenes with Luke got cut.

Redo as much as possible to fit in with what the EU said the clone wars were. i.e. Victory-class star destroyers and a noticeable gap between the end of the clone wars and the rise of Palpatine.

Jango Fett shouldn't have died in AOTC.

He should have been kept around so he could have been in all the Clone Wars spin off material. Imagine how much better it would have been if they had been using Jango in the the Clone Wars TV show instead of always relying on Dooku and Grevious.

>>4403

I kinda like Boba's journey on his own

>>4311

is there a story behind OP's pic? Is that portman under there?

>>4438

it's the naboo penthouse june cover

>>4398

>pulled it out of his ass

>deliberately borrowed from the hidden fortress

fuck off this board you normie

>>4433

>I kinda like Boba's journey on his own

Still could have done that after Ep III, Lucas didn't really use Boba anyway only the Clone Wars CG show had some appearances from him.

>>4311

No Jar Jar.

No Midichlorians.

Completely redo Clone Wars since it it was 78% shit.

Improve the Prequels?

More Qui-Gon Jinn, he was the reason Episode 1 was so good.

>>4438

According to wookieepedia:

Delva Racine was a cutting-edge fashion designer. Her outwardly-human appearance was altered by the strange eye goggles and the horn-like mask that covered her nose and mouth.

Her scandalous designs were based on Outer Rim Territories cultures. As a result, her summer Kubaz collection was heavily criticized by the media.

Possibly played by British fashion designer Alice Shreeve.

No Qui-Gon, no kid Anakin.

Obi-Wan meets Anakin, a promising pilot at the Republic Navy. Train him as a jedi. The Republic was attacked by some clone armies from nowhere. Palpatine manipulates things behind the scene and became emperor. Anakin became Vader and joins the Empire, help purges the jedi, that take some time. He bangs Padme from Alderaan, or something like that during all.

Episode I = Path of a Jedi or something. Anakin is recruited

Episode II = Clone Wars. The war and ascension of the Empire. Anakin abandons Obi Wan at the end.

Episode III = Purge or Betrayal. Anakin is now Vader. The jedi are hunted down, depicting their losing war and extinction (something more than all troops turn at once), Vader and Obi Wan fight.

Fight between Palpatine and Mace should have been re-purposed as a confrontation between Obi and Anakin.

Anakin wants to kill Palpatine for betraying the Republic, Obi wants to stop him because of muh jedi way or whatever.

This would be infinitely more interesting dramatically.

Episode I: Anakin was good and stoic as you can be, he's the absolute hero

Palpatine is known everywhere as a shitlord

no mentions of economy or conspiracies at all

Clone War begins

scrap all the original story and start again

no Yoda in all the movies

Jedi are allowed to fuck, they even see love as a cosmic stuff

They have visions and can somewhat heal, create fire and whatnot

We religion now, the Force can't be explained by science. The end.

Jar Jar is actually funny and steals the movie

he's an ambassador or something he's the key to all this

this episode is light as fuck like the 4th it's like poetry, they rhyme

Episode II: Anakin becomes darth vader

he purposely becomes a cyborg to inspire fear

trying to delay that thing is cheap IMHO

he wanted to defend the jedis

the jedis actually betrayed him because shitlord shaming

i mean he was planning a dictatorship because the galaxy was in chaos and liberals blamed the patriarchy I mean the Force

his stormtroopers saved him but failed at shooting the jedis

they go back to the Death Star

Anakin says this was a victory but when he's alone he gets sad

Pregnant Amidala is with him

Episode III: Clone war ends

No lightsabers appear in this movie

Amidala is taken hostage and dies that's the icing on the vader cake

Palpatine is surprised that Vader lost all his humanity and becomes 100% practical

Anakin was going to kill his children just to show his enemies how edgy he was

Palpatine told him "d00d, let's raise them as third world idealists and then corrupt their soul 'n shit 4 teh lulz"

stormtroopers and siths versus clones and jedis

a shit ton of siths

some jedis were trying to stop this because with this new technology I can do whatever I want and we even see a couple of jedis fighting each other

Vader betrays and kills all the siths to kill all the jedis

Vader thanks Palpatine because his mission is completed or something cooler

he wakes up and discovers he was with his mother in tatooine and this is lucas' episode I

he dies in the race

Lumpy Bacca wins

Jar Jar Binks does something unfunny

Rich Evans screams "Oh my goooooooooooooooooood"

*end credits*

This is the best rework I found. I think it's actually really, really good.

This.

Lucas was planning the prequels ever since ANH was a hit. They were always going to happen. The best you could hope for was that they got made in the late 80's instead, before Lucas could latch onto CGI.

>>4704

>>owen is a draft-dodger or a pacifist

Actually i wouldn't make sense put him as a soldier.

Remember what OB1 said? "He prefered to reamin here and not get involved", Anakin left for some "damn fool idealistic crusade" remember?

>>4626

>Promising pilot at the Republic Navy

>train him as a Jedi

Fat fucking chance. This isn't the New Jedi Order.

>>4734

Remember what Obi Wan said? He implied that when he first meet Anakin he was one hell of a pilot, than was amazed by the his force potential and took him as an apprentice.

Republic Navy, merc, private pilot. Whatever. The point was that Anakin was to be a pilot before being a jedi.

>>4744

in no way, shape or form does obi-wan imply that when he met him, he was already a great pilot.

i mean, they technically did stick to that with the podracing, but obi-wan is specifically referring to his dogfighting skills.

Give the prequels to tartakovsky. I think he did a great job with clone wars

>>4311

Travel back in time and remove GL from creative control on the entire franchise and give it to someone who can actually create a compelling story.

>>4374

The podrace served no purpose to the plot. It was literally a case of "lets make Watto immune to jedi mind tricks so we can needlessly shoehorn in a kids version of Ben Hur."

Do we really need a half-hour long scifi chariot race to showcase that Anakin has some talent at piloting? Or do we just want to sell toys?
