(Music begins, but not the Main Title SW music, something softer)

In the late 1990s, as production began on Star Wars: Episode I - The Phantom Menace, it was revealed that the upcoming movie would show the planet known as the galactic capital of the Republic.  Star Wars fans had known the name of the planet ever since 1991, when it was first revealed in the epic novel Heir to the Empire.  The only question was…(music stops)…how do you pronounce it?

(Random dude says, "It's pronounced Coruscant (the way Qui-Gon says it)."  Another random dude says, "No, man, there's a c in it, it's pronounced Coruscant (the way Obi-Wan says it)."  (In the background of these two dudes talking, maybe have some crowd noise in the background to differentiate it from the rest of the trailer.)

The fans had enough trouble figuring it out.  But what if the inhabitants of the Star Wars galaxy themselves…(say this slowly) didn't know how to pronounce it?  In The Phantom Menace, when Jedi duo Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi-Wan Kenobi attempt to leave the planet Naboo, they get a little…sidetracked.
 
Qui-Gon: I am ambassador to the supreme chancellor.  I'm taking these people to Coruscant.
Droid: Where are you taking them?
Obi-Wan: Wait, master.  (Skip Amidala’s part?)  We've discussed this before. It is pronounced "Coruscant."
Qui-Gon: You are pushing your patience with me, boy.  I brought you up into this world.  I’ll take you out of it.
 
This is the epic tale of an incredible duel between Jedi Master and Jedi Apprentice…over the pronunciation of the word…(spell it out) C-O-R-U-S-C-A-N-T.
 
Obi-Wan:  I know I am right about this and THAT is final.
Qui-Gon:  Oh really, Obi-Wan?  You want a piece of this?
Obi-Wan:  Oh, how I’d love to whip your sorry excuse for a Jedi all OVER this hangar.
 
(Now, the word "Coruscant?" will be said, denoting the title of the production, then there will be a VERY abbreviated version of the end credits, possibly with only your name, or your and my names.)
 
Qui-Gon: CORUSCANT!
Obi-Wan: CORUSCANT!
