Relatively self-explanatory, but at the same time, difficult to explain. Similar to the question "to be, or not to be."
Anyway, what if you had made the Star Wars movies? What would it be about, who would the characters be, weapons, ships etc

If I made the SW universe, it would be a whole different story.  Most of my ideas now are based off of the SW universe, so it would not be as good.  I would be remembered for creating a movie sensation (possibly) but I don't think I'd do the real SW justice.  I'd leave the creating to more qualified people.  But, then again, that's just my opinion.

Jango would either not exist or be killed in a horrendous fashion. Boba would not become Mandalore. The Mandalorians would not be like Traviss made them. Han would shoot first. Chewbacca would not die in such a manner. Midichlorines would not exist. The Skywalkers an C-3PO would not complain so much. The stormtroopers would not be such poorly trained soldiers. Xizor would have been shot in the head. Greedo would have been a better bounty hunter. The Mandalorian language would not have been created.

i woulda had Ben die different then the way he did and chewie would have lived and anakin woulda died instead lol. id keep everything mando secretive but yodas species even more under wraps the it is now. and Boba woulda had a better fall into the sarlacc...ya know with a fight and not a dumb accident.

Everyone knows what Star Wars needed. More Solo jokes, less Luke whining, more Boba (not a lot, just more than there was)

Oh, and the lightsabers would actually be made of fire instead of light.

And all of the jedis would have unique costumes like... Batman and spiderman things...

i would like to second the cowbell motion...and maybe make C3-POs personality a lot more like Christopher Walken's... I also wouldn't mind some scenes with more personality. like Luke goes into a nervous breakdown after Ben's death. Or Yoda goes through a large stage of serious depression when he becomes selfconscious about his appearance. maybe Jabba could have become anorexic causing him to have a dramatic weight change... Chewie could have unspoken feelings for Leia... just a few ideas...

Spare me from ever seeing these movies....all of which would probably be rated R.....although Muse46 does have a piont about Leia and Chewie.....she did offer to kiss him you know....lol....."I'd rather kiss a wookie!" "That can be arranged."

Why would they be rated R?

April 3, 2007 6:47 pm #

Well knowing you draco, and reading your post about Jango's death, assuming you choose the latter, and your admiration of Alice Cooper, who seems to love gore and things like that, I believe R would be a proper rating purely for the blood and gore.

I suppose it was a bit misleading; I intended an extremely quick shot of Jango laying limbless with carnivorous animals approching. Of course I would prefere that he was not in it at all.

I'll third on the cowbell. Also, ROTS was rumored to be rated R for too many people getting killed.

April 5, 2007 6:16 pm #

Wow! I would have to hand it to George Lucas for invented something like Star Wars but if I were to change it there would be more Boba Fett less or no Jar-jar Binks. By all means C3PO's and Luke's whining has to go. Finally, Chewbacca must live!

if i made starwars, there would be no ewoks and jar jar binks(or gungans), storm troopers would not be poorly trained and boba fett would have put up a fight.

If I made Star Wars, then there would likely be no one here today talking about it. Or even a year after I made it. But I guess if I could just tweak a few little things: there would be no Amidala, or at least she wouldn't be called "queen" and her massive wardrobe would be a little more Star Warsish and less aimed at the "look at me I'm a little princess" girl audience, Boba would die better, or not at all, we'd get to see a few more shots of stormtroopers actually frying some of those little fuzzy buggers, aaaaannnd......we'd get to see more Lando. That is all.

Now this just proves my point: I'm not creative enough to think of what I'd do, yet everyone else has amazing ideas, that make me kick myself for not thinking of!  :D

More Boba, no Jar Jar, no whiny Skywalker, and I would put in the scene with boba escaping from the Sarlaac.

Definatly more Boba.  And Maul would be featured more.  Grievous would have had a way better death scene.

April 6, 2007 3:55 pm #

On the death scene thing, I'd probably prefer Jango and Grievous to (if at all) die in a less fluke-ish deaths.  They were both deadly fighters, and were done in by a completely mundane way.  I think that it is pathetic, and I hated those two parts.  Anyways, i'm rambling,  so I'll stop now.

I would've kept the name Luke Starkiller since it fits in with him "killing" the Death Star. I think I would've made the series in chronological order, or maybe some other order. hmm...

......Anyway, back to our conversation. Obviously i would've made Boba and Jango's deaths better but you know i would've made Boba kill Mace. He wouldn't face him 1-1 mind you he would have some help, in the form of Droidekas, or Super battledroids, or something else. But he would kill Mace Windu.

Why don't you stop spamming and explain how you would change Star Wars

"Everyone has the right to be stupid, but you are abusing the privilege."
April 7, 2007 7:07 pm #

(ROTS) the clones and anakin would not betray the jedi there would be a huge fight scene with the jedi, clones vs. the sepreatists and dooku and grevious where the seperatists die, all the jedi die, the clone troopers become the storm troopers, and anakin has a big accident where he becomes vader. NO JAR JAR!!!! more mando

April 7, 2007 11:34 pm #

i would change star wars by creating more jedi and bounty hunters!  yeh!!  :)

There were plenty of Jedi at one point, and nearly alll were misled.  Bounty Hunters, the more the merrier doesn't really apply :)

That is an interessting idea though, and not spam.  Good job GHF.

Wow, a very interesting *and sadly very dead* topic. 

Assuming I had Lucas in my ear telling me what he would do, I would have had the original trilogy and the new one fit a little better.  For instance, Luke isn't too old, he's WAY to old based on what we know about the Jedi now.  I'd either edit and say you don't need to be so young to start, or just admit that Luke sucks as a Jedi cause he started so late and knows so little.

Of course, NO Jar Jar or Ewoks.  The Gungans could have been a good idea if they didn't act and sound so stupid.  I would have changed that somehow. 

I like Jango, and wouldn't have changed much except little tid-bits about the fight scenes.  And *since it's me making this* would have added something based on my idea for my FanFic; that he accepted the contract so he could alter the clones to make them Mandos who he could take control of later and make them into Mandos.  Maybe he gets caught and fails, but I would have had that in there somewhere.

And of course more Boba in the original trilogy.  Complete rewrite of the battle over the Sarlacc fight.  Boba would have been in a staring role there rather then just a *attempted*  slightly amusing sideshow.  I probably would have had him stay on the barge and had him try to snipe the others. 

Many other ideas mentioned above I would also incorperate; less whiny Anikan, better death for Grievous, Boba killing Mace, all those and some I probably forgot would be good ideas

I couldn't make Star Wars.  George Lucas did too good of a job for me to make it.  And honestly, if I made it, it would be horrible

April 5, 2008 9:09 am #

What if I made SW? hmmm... well like many have said I think it would be very different because I would have to think of it from scratch. Now if you said Wat if Lucas asked you to edit star wars (I think this is what you meant.) I would say it would be very different.
Do to time restraints I can't post it now but I will later.

LOL I would not have known where to start

If I could change the existing Star Wars films I would change the Han Solo/Greedo scene so that Han shoots first again :D

I have grown up in a world where there has always been Star Wars, as it exists now. Its hard for me to think about how I would have fused so many different ideas into one huge massive mind blowing idea seems far fetched for a blonde. Star Wars is Star Wars because of its creator(s).

Now what would I choose to do differently inside the created vehicle?
Someone was saying that the dislike the elaborate costumes that Amidala had in EPI. I LOVE Trisha Beggar's costumes. I would have kept much of that style going in every movie. ( I am a unfulfilled fashion designer.)
Chewbacca wouldn't have died. Period. Anakin Solo and Mara Jade... ditto.
Boba would have put up more of a fight, and certainly not die. In general he'd have a larger role too.
I'd also explain more about the force and have more blatant displays of its power. At least of cool Sith like Maul.
Lastly I'd fix the Imperials from looking such gosh- darn 70's looking. Make them look more "galactic"

OOPS! Sorry Alor, I think that's in a book, but one of those I haven't read. If its not true than I apologize for misinformation. This is just going by what I've heard others on this site complain about. i would fix that as she's rockin by my book.

Mara Jade MIGHT have been killed by Jacen Solo. the books are not clear on what exactly happened.

Not really?  Isn't she already confirmed dead?  I mean her body was turned into a Force Ghost.

I shall assume that this would have taken place in the Legacy of the Force series then.... those are the only ones i really am virtually ignorant of.
