[Reply #1 on:]

Hey, good idea for a thread! For Bender though, he could be R2B2. B3PO works too.

[Reply #2 on:]

Also:
Nibbler as N2I3(there is a hidden message in this name)

[Reply #3 on:]

Does that mean Leela is going to turn out to be Fry's sister, and Flexo their father?

[Reply #4 on:]

And the Grunka-Lunkas could be Ewoks I suppose?

Here is the awensors to your questions
WARNING SPOILERS FOR MY FAN FIC


Imagine the following scene is like the battle scene in The Empier Stricks Back:
Flexo:"Fry,I am your Father!"
Fry;"NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!!!
Darth Flexo(laghing):"Ah Ha Ha Ah Ha!I was kinding ya there,but for real I am B3PO's Twin!
B3PO:"Noooooooooooooooooooooo!"
Fry:"What are you cryin' about!
My Hand was just choped off!"

Imagin the next scene is like the Swamp confesion in Return of the Jedi:
Farsworth:"So if you died there is another:
Leela."
Fry:"Leela?!does this mean she is my sister?
Farsworth:"No she's your mother's robot's cousin's friend's roomate who learned the Jedi's ways."
Fry:"So,I can still date her?"
Farsworth:"Yes."
Fry:"Yahoooo!"

Also:
Cubert will be C2U2
And Nibber will be Noda.

[Reply #8 on:]

[Reply #9 on:]

[Reply #10 on:]

I will the problem is I need to find out 2 things:
1)How to post it on the Leela Zone.
2)How to link it to the message board.
fryfanSpyOrama,could you help me out?

[Reply #12 on:]

Just e-mail it to someone at TLZ, they'll do it for you!

[Reply #13 on:]

Thanks,Shadow star,but know I need to know how to post the link.
Also,MOLe I will use the Grunk A Lunkas in part 3.Also,who should be Jabba the Hutt?

[Reply #14 on:]

Too bad there's really only one female of any importance in the original trilogy. Amy's kinda robbed here.

Jabba should be Zapp.  Zapp is a bit of a slob. I made Zapp a slob in my third SpyOrama.  I had him parody the frenchman from the Matrix Revolutions.  I had him eat olives like a slob.  If you read issue four of Futurama Comics, you saw just how big a slob Zapp can be.

[Reply #16 on:]

I was thinking the same thing, Kryten.

If you included stuff from the novels, Amy could be Mara Jade.   

[Reply #17 on:]

Or you could just create a new character for Amy

[Reply #18 on:]

Zapp is already a Han Solo charactor besides,Lrrr is now Jaba.
Now:How do I post the link to the message board?

[Reply #19 on:]

You mean link as in an address on the message board.  Well when I do it I just type the link as if I want to go to that link and then i copy and paste on the message board.

Also, Zapp as Jabba would be funny cause then you'd have a scene where Zapp has Leela chained up next to him, but Lrrr is just as good.

[Reply #20 on:]

You *could* cast Amy as Boba Fett. Boba Fett is/was a man, but you were never really told during the movies, and some people believed that he was woman apparently. 
Additional characters:
Lando
Wedge
Ackbar
They all played an important part in the movies as well.

[Reply #21 on:]

I know what Amy will be,but you have to wait tell Part 3. 

[Reply #22 on:]

well get working and don't come back until you've got a finished fan fic... nah im just kiddin, seriously though, HURRY!!!!!

[Reply #23 on:]

Bender is obvously C3PO and Flexo (in his crushed form, at the end of Bendless Love) is R2D2.
Amy is Queen Amidala
Cubert is Anakin Skywalker
The Slurm Queen is Jabba the Hut
Leela (or Lee Lemon) is Qui Gon Jin
Fry is Obi Wan
Farnworth is Yoda
Hermes is Mace Windu
Zoidberg is the PERFECT Jar Jar Binks
Nixon is Darth Sideous
and for some reason I think it would be funny to have Scruffy play Darth Maul.

Hmm, that's given me an idea...

Lando
Wedge
Ackbar

I thought perhaps Yancy (Fry's brother) could play Wedge, I suppose. Hermes for Lando and perhaps Harold Zoid for Ackbar?

Just for the sheer hell of it, perhaps Yancy Snr for Red Leader?

Look forward to the fanfic Woodbot 

[Reply #25 on:]

Part 1 is up on The Leela Zone! 

[Reply #26 on:]

i read it, good start, but I hope you have more soon.

[Reply #27 on:]

Boba Fett=Clamps
Tarkin=That Guy

And definatly the Robot Devil as Thrawn for the really in depth scheme from Devil's Hands

[Reply #28 on:]

Darth Nixon is a lot cooler than Flexo, plus Hedonism Bot should be Jabba

[Reply #29 on:]

Farnsworth can be the Emperor, and El Chubanebre can be the Rancor. 

How do you spell El Chubanebre?

[Reply #30 on:]

Not only Star Wars, you can cast the Futurama characters in other movies as well.  How about Smokey and the Bandit?  Here's an example: 

Bender:  The Bandit
Fry:  Cledus
Leela: Carrie
Zapp:  Sheriff Bufford T. Justice
Kiff:  Bufford's son
Hermes:  Big Enos
Zoidberg:  Little Enos

Leela could run away from marrying Zapp like Sally Field did.

Kif: Sgt. Payne
Zoidberg: Dr. Winkle

[Reply #38 on:]

Hermes would be a pimpin' Mace Windu.. Professy could possibly be Obi-Wan... Bender definitely B3PO... Leela Princess Leela, Fry could possibly be Skywalker......Cubert is Vader, since he's evil..*rethinks* naahh..

[Reply #39 on:]

Just going for essential characters form the original trilogy here, but I think:

Heroes:

Fry: Luke Skywalker (Guh.)
Hermes: Han Solo (Hermes is like Han's antithesis, so that could be funny.)
Leela: Princess Leia (Obvious.)
Bender: R2D2/Chewbacca (The cool robot, cool + robot.)
Calculon: C-3PO (They're both gold... and...)
Farnsworth: Obi-Wan Ben Kenobi (Wise old man?)
Zoidberg: Admiral Ackbar (Crustaceans, plus Zoidy's incompetent so it's kinda funny.)
Amy: Mon Mothma (Same as Zoidy.)
Nibbler: Yoda (Superwise little guy.)
Cubert: Wickett Warrick (Small, and annoying?)
Scruffy: Lando Calrissian (Complete opposites.)

Villains:

Zapp: Jabba (Slob, plus being chained to Leela.)
Kif: Salacious Crumb (Jabba's assistant/pet.)
Mom: Emperor Palpatine (Pure evil.)
Mom's Sons: Emperor's Guard/Admirals (Just follows.)
Elzar: Greedo-like character (Has cooking duel with Bender/Han?)
Nixon: Darth Vader (Evil again.)
Lrrr: Boba Fett (Just because).
Ndnd: Boba Fett's ally (Bossk-like?)
Url & Smitty: Stormtroopers (Bluh.)

Other:

El Chupanibre: Rancor (Djuh.)
Morbo: Narrator (Comedy!)
Linda: Narrator (Comedy!)
