moreKOTORplz Posted December 18, 2005 Share Posted December 18, 2005 if you know its history it wasn't a normal part of the cell, it has bacterial origins and its own DNA. In a sense its normal flora not an organelle of the cell. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

moreKOTORplz Posted December 18, 2005 Share Posted December 18, 2005 Lucas just try to put a scientific spin on the force by having these thing that are force cells that you can do like a RBC to determine how strong someone is in the force. maybe he was watching DBZ or pokeman and thought hey the kiddies are goin to love this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surreptishus Posted December 18, 2005 Share Posted December 18, 2005 Back on topic? ...okay what was the topic? Ok, i see now, midichlorians. What about them? Film reason? plot device to try and quantify the force so that qui gonn has a specific reason for believing Anakin is special as opposed to just a vague feeling. SW lore reason? whatever nonsense was stated in the film to explain it. Unfortunately due to the shallow nature of the films there is no scope for a deep discussion on midichlorians. All you can do is speculate wildy about what is essentially a mistake. Personally i think that is a bit pointless. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Arkan Posted December 19, 2005 Share Posted December 19, 2005 (stolen from Jesus' birth of a virgin, anyone? just noting that) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> No. "Of course the people don't want war. But after all, it's the leaders of the country who determine the policy, and it's always a simple matter to drag the people along whether it's a democracy, a fascist dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders. That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked, and denounce the pacifists for lack of patriotism, and exposing the country to greater danger." - Herman Goering at the Nuremberg trials "I have also been slowly coming to the realisation that knowledge and happiness are not necessarily coincident, and quite often mutually exclusive" - meta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
