The tech and spiritual stuff should be little to no problem.  I’d have to loose some (quite a bit) of weight to figure in the physical part.

Lightsaber creation is sort of a weeding out process in the Jedi academy.  Anyone who screws up usually blows up really good.

At least Jedi don’t have to use their mental powers to create the power crystal as well - I really couldn’t be arsed with that…

But we have developed on the film

Who’d want to be a Jedi anyway? Jedis don’t know Sith!

Nah, the more weight you have, the better a Jedi you are.  Especially if you drive a fast car.  Force is mass times acceleration, after all!

You don’t need to know Sith.  Sith happens.

I know.  I have the tee-shirt.

Actually, North Wales is quite a good place to have a Jedi Church. Since they almost talk like Yoda there already.

Jones: Morning Evans. Look all dressed up to go a long way walking, yew do!
Evans: Morning Jones. Off up to church, I am!
Jones: On a Thursday? Strange day for church, that is!
Evans: Well, it’s that nyew Jedi church, isn’t it. Giving it a try, I am.
Jones: Jedi church? Whut on Eerth is a Jedi church?
Evans: Like that Star Wars film, isn’t it! Get all sorts of mental abilitees, yew do!
Jones: Star Wars? The one with the laser swords?
Evans: That’s the one. Call ‘em ‘lightsabers’, they do!
Jones: Coo, but one of them would be yewsful, wouldn’t it!
Evans: Thinking the same, wasn’t I?
Jones: Well, better be coming along too, hadn’t I?
...
One short walk later.
...
Jedi Priest: Welcome, you are. The church of Jedi, this is!
Jones: Well, that’s heartening, isn’t it? It’s always nicer when yew understand the language!

Ruddy hell, boyo.

Amazing. They took a funny joke and tried to make it serious, thus removing the attraction of it in the first place and winding up with just two sheep-shagging Welshmen who can’t let a joke be.

Do you think they’ll have a Jedi male voice choir to go with the church?

Mind you, they’ll have to rewrite some of the songs.

“Landspeeder of My Fathers”
“Men of Sarlacc”
“We’ll Keep a Wookie in the Hillside”

*clears throat*

“Men of Sarlacc are digesting,
In his mighty belly resting.
We are sure that they’ll be fest’ring
For a thousand years!

“First he starts upon your toes,
Works his way up to your nose,
Then, but why nobody knows,
He spits out your ears!

He ate Bo-ba Fett!
And he’s not finished yet!
Bounty-hunters, or herds of Banthas, does just his appetite whet!

For tentacles that thrash around
Over all the sandy ground,
Looking for what can be found
Is Sarlacc justly feared!”

*bows*
