"A Merry Christmas, all of you should have."
"If good you have been, many gifts you shall receive. But beware anger, fear, aggression. The dark side are they. Once you start down the path of the dark side, forever will it decimate your cheer."

Just thought of something funny.....A Christmas Carrol...with all-Star Wars cast!
The stage play stays the same as do the lines, but whenever possible, the SW character personalities come into play...and SW technology and equipment come into play as is appropriate. So Vader won't just chop the ghosts with his lightsaber, but he can use it to carve the goose. Bob(Luke) carries Tiny Tim(Yoda) on his backpack (from ESB). All of Tiny Tim's lines are also now in Yoda-speak.
I haven't figured where Lando and Chewie fit in or other SW Expanded Universe characters, but here is the Cast:
Scrooge: Vader(in full costume)
Scrooge's girlfriend from his youth(Anakin): Padme (Ep II)
Ghost of Xmas Past: Qui-Gon Gin
Ghost of Xmas Present: Obi-wan(Older...and as a spirit)
Ghost of Xmas Future: Palpatine(ESB or RotJ)
Jacob Marley: Maul or Dooku...can tell Vader how practicing the dark side caused each of his chain links to be formed...
Scrooge's Nephew: Han(post-RotJ)
Nephew's wife: Leia(post-RotJ)
Bob Cratchet: Luke(post-RotJ)
Mrs. Cratchet: Mara
Tiny Tim: Yoda...even has the crutch/cane
Rest of the kids: Ben Skywalker, assorted ewoks, Cindel from Ewok movies
Business men: Nute Gunray and his helpers...grab the CIG leaders for extras
Undertaker: Jabba the Hutt...his cronies can be the random people stealing things off the bodies.
Boy that gets the Goose for Scrooge: Jar Jar...but he has to use Gunganese when talking to Scrooge.
Thoughts? Revisions?

Yes, but Vader made a similar transition to Scrooge. Granted, I don't think Scroog killed anyone, but he was looked on a evil by the others in the village. Even his family thought he was doomed. But, I think it was his nephew that still had hopes that there was still hope for him yet -- Obvious link to Luke and Vader
And I think Yoda as Tiny Tim would be priceless. After all, there are so many other versions, who will notice one more. Can't be as bad as the Christmas Special Lucas actually made ...but still tries to ignore .

Believe me, you didn't miss much. Assuming you've seen the Ewok movies, imagine that with about 1/4 of the production quality or less. True, the costumes were probably authentic, but the scripts and character development made Jar Jar look like a masterpiece... In fact, try to picture Star Wars produced and directed by PBS and the Sesame Street crew -- with their budget as well.
Yep, pretty bad for a Christmas special. (Keep in mind that I actually did like the Ewok movies. While they are not as good as the Star Wars movies (any of the six), they are still decent. They are perfect for small kids (G or PG...I forget) with lower violence and fewer special affects, but still a good program.}
One of my friends found it on Ebay -- very cheap! We watched it and couldn't stop making fun of it - Mystery Science Theatre 3000 style.

I vow to start (at least) a little earlier than I did this year. {I'm trying to be realistic for myself since I know I won't motivate myself to start THAT early... }
Ooooh! A SW fooseball table, "Sounds Dangerous." --just kidding, sounds fun. Just remember to not let any wookies rip anyone's arms off if they loose.
