The Prequel Radical Redux Ideas Thread
Time

Midichlorians. One of the most controversial aspects of the PT. The one that seems to have been more easily fixed and it mostly involves removing dialogue. However what if there was a way to include the midichlorians as a conservative aspect of the Jedi order?

That is to say, instead of Qui-gon having faith in Anakin because of his midicount, Mace should demand a count (in my interpretations they are related to the force but having lots of them could very well mean nothing). Dubbing would be requiered for this, but I believe the Jedis being conservative is one of the better devices in that trilogy and needs reinforcement.

I've found some a good number of edits for it, but some of them either trim things I'm a fan of, such as the Yoda vs. Palpatine duel...

Sorry, I stopped reading after this.

Heh. Can you seriously explain why everybody hates that fight so much?

 It's commonly agreed the duel reduces Palpatine and Yoda to cartoon characters, and that most the antics present are unintentionally  funny.

Carnosaur (1993)

Very enjoyable junk. If not for rather primitive effects work, the film actually had some plot to go for, with Ladd's character being something more fleshed out than you'd expect from this kind of film. The manner in which the T-Rex if offed is a bit cruel, especially considering the creature didn't go on a bloody rampage. Still, much of the flaws present are the reason I love B-movies.

What do you LIKE about the Prequels?

Not so much a structure problem, rather the use of plural (rape) to follow a singular word (stuff). The correct sentence would have been "Well many agree that stuff like the midichlorians, frog Yoda, spastic lightsaber battles, etc; rapes what we love about the OOT (what's the second "O" for?)."

As for the Raped Star Wars ordeal, would "ruined" be a better term?
