I’m going to take a look at the audio in that scene to see if Merry’s background speech could be removed without deleting the actual visuals.
oooh, that would be nice.
Or you can include a line that he likes DeadPool who breaks the 4th wall.
Am I right?
…
I’ll see myself out.
“There were always whispers that we are actually in a world that revolves entirely around Skywalkers and Palpatines.”
Anyways, I took a peak at the 5.1 audio and it looks like Merry’s dialogue appears in 2 of them. 1 of them can easily be removed to make it quieter, but the other has Rey’s movements attached. So more work would need to be done to make it perfect.
And Burbin, it’s problematic because it suggests that Palpatine has otherworldly powers. In actuality, most people would assume he was a normal dude from Naboo (at least until after ROTJ). Thus why the Final Order would put a Sith Empire in place, not a normal Empire.
In ROTS he was still hiding his abilities. Nobody saw the battle between him and Yoda except us.
