The main problem I have with getting rid of Midichlorians is that Palpatine mentioned them in the middle of a long shot when he was telling Anakin about the tragedy of Darth Plagueis the Wise. How is it even possible to seamlessly edit out “Midichlorians” from this long shot that slowly zooms in?
I think Hal 9000 edited the scene to remove the midi-chlorians mention in his Revenge of the Sith edit.
Yea, i took it out in my personal machete cut i did early this year (Which prompted the Revised Trilogy). Vader being named came out, Midi-Chlorians, and various cheesy dialogue. Those kind of edits were actually some of the easiest. Editing during action was a little trickier just cause of the music and blending things to where they didn’t seem noticeable or a jump.
