Why didn't they enter Endor at lightspeed to bypass the shield?

Why didn't they enter Endor at lightspeed to bypass the shield?

Shitttttttttttttttttt Star Wars geeks BTFO

Because ewoks sell toys

cause they wanted to get there alive and not get crushed on the shield?

>tfw to intelligent for bate

Shit there's like 2 ship designs here EvE Online cribbed for their spaceships

Because only Han Soolo is good enough to do that and it took him until the day of his death to figure out how to do it

Why didn't they just send the eagles to blow up the death star?

Once in Galactica they jumped from hyperspace directly on a planet for a surprise attack, they released the Vipers/Raptors and went back to space. Why cant Star Wars be this cool?

I was gonna say eagles can't fly in space, but they did say "the eagle has landed" when america SUPPOSEDLY landed on the moon

why not just ram the deathstar at light speed?

Because fuck jar jar Abrams.
>Let's make star wars a normy movie.

why don't they just make the ships out of whatever the shields are made of?

Why not just make ships out of metal that can go through shields?

good enough to pilot the millennium falcon through the starkiller shields that was out of his hands and slightly modified by different owners for >10yrs.

Somehow Poe not good enough even though he literally is an Ace pilot by profession.

Cant fix the hyperdrive problem in Empire only for r2 to literally plug in a wire to fix it.

Cant fix another issue only maREY Sue to bypass the character development.

Still Somehow able to do what he did cause its an old smugglers trick.


FUCK YOU

Why didn't the Falcon get crushed when lightspeeding into the atmosphere of the starkiller base?

Why not make a starship in the shape of a sword and crash it into shields/ships

dunno lol, cause there was no shield?

Why don't they build giant ships that are just a big ass hulls with hyperdrive engine attached, to blast enemies by ramming them?

Because it doesn't work that way anymore. Legends had it as ships couldn't travel through mass shadows/gravity wells at lightspeed. Now that the Disney canon repeatedly depicts lightspeed in atmosphere, it's now something like a safeguard that the hero can bypass to make the ship stay at lightspeed within a gravity well.

Because in star wars before JJ hack it, you can't enter at highspeed because of the gravity pulls you out of it

Rey bypassed the atmosphere you fucking idiot did you not watch the film?

>In the disney star wars now you can destroy an entire planet with an xwing traveling at lightspeed making all 6 movies pointless
thanks jews

Because even George Lucas had at least a remote degree of respect for the laws of physics, while Abrams is just like "let's throw se sciencey bullshit in there and retards will gobble it up and think it's super cool"

Han Solo could do it

> respect for physics
> dog flies a Frisbee in space

It pains me to say it but Disney SJWars honestly isn't cannon. According to disney rules the force can stop energy bolts now. Nothing makes any sense

And Darth Vader stopping Han's blaster bolts in 5 was what?

Humanoid creature flying an admittedly ridiculous-looking spaceship is about 8000% more realistic than "let's enter this planet's atmosphere at fucking lightspeed and then decelerate in 0.1 seconds, what could possibly go wrong? I'm a 70 year old man, my skills and reflexes are intact and I'll be able to stop before smashing into the ground at impossible speeds even though I won't even see where we're going thanks to our speed, and it's not like the brutal deceleration is going to disintegrate us because lmao space magic technology right"

>According to disney rules the force can stop energy bolts

Imagine that.

>is a "we pretend TFA has a good script for the sake of trolling" episode

He blocked it with his robot hand

Also how come the Jedi in order 66 didn't neo block blaster bolts if it was so easy

>pol confirmed for clueless faggots pushing an agenda

lmao everyone can tell you don't care about the movie or franchise just so you can peddle your neo nazi shit.

Better question,
How can you got from light speed to slow enough that a crash wont hurt you within the distance of an atmosphere?
Regardless of any impact wouldn't the deceleration alone kill everybody onboard?

DISNEY HATER BTFO

apoc and provi?

The Rebel fleet couldn't pulled what Han pulled with the Falcon because they're not designed for atmospheric flight. They would crash even harder than the Falcon and probably explode on impact.

Can't believe people actually need it explained to them why it wouldn't be a very good idea to jump this into low orbit, let alone a planetary atmosphere.

Well maybe we need a push back from all the sjws who don't care about the movies or franchise just so they can peddle their gay/nigger/feminist shit

Yes because hating uninspired cgi meatball monsters, recycled plot and ship designs, bland characters, and anticlimactic ending makes u a nazi these days

They got spooked

They thought this couldn't be happening, they were in charge there

This is a legitimate point, but the trick in TFA was a complete ass-pull.

Kylo is a prodigy. Probably also learned some obscure Sith techniques from Snoke since his lightsaber was also of an ancient design.

Let's imagine they go from 1.5c (449 688 687 m/s) to a reasonable speed for atmospheric flight like 500 kph (abour 139 m/s) in half a second

That's around minus 900 MILLION Gs of deceleration. They wouldn't simply die, they would become dust.

With the right calculations, they could begin jumping out of hyperspace before even being near the planet, and come out of it just as they're passing the shield without smacking into the planet at light speed.

Most people probably wouldn't try it because it's a near-impossible maneuver. Even Han just barely pulled it off.

Hyperspace isn't literally going the speed of light.

the shield was around the death star, not endor. it was generated from endor

1. We have no reason to believe it's the same type of shield that was used on the Starkiller Base.

2. Can you imagine an entire fleet of ships trying to do that all at the same time? Everyone would die.

Go to wookiepedia and read their explanation for how the Starkiller base works and you'll stop giving a shit about something like the lightspeed trick which sounds almost realistic in comparison

bullshit those ships fly well on a planet

endor had their own shield dummy

>an organization risen from the ashes of the empire somehow has the cash and technology to build a fleet bigger than the Empire's and even a Death Star on steroids that's dozens of times bigger and more powerful than the original
>somehow this one, too, has a readily accessible weak point that can destroy the entire planet
>and it all goes to shit because of a sanitation worker who somehow knows everything about the base's weak spot

I may have gone too far on a few places

endor was a moon. do you mean the generator was also protected by the shield it generates?

yet someone without even a week of training destroy him

But there was no buil-up for that. It was just like

First order: "It happens we have a super-super-super-weapons. yes, we, the remenants"
*BOOOM*
Han "It happens I have a good trick. No Leia, is not spinning."
The audience look at him in awe after the revelation that there are good tricks other than spinning, and they pull it.

JJ is retarded

The point is that in my opinion, TFA is bullshit because if you can pull that lightspeed trick, the existence of shields makes less sense.
Either they would train pilots to pull the trick (so, say the empire in ESB should not be forced to deploy the AT-AT) or people would modify them fast to take in account the trick.

Is just yet another J.J. bullshit.

You mean after being gutshot by a particle weapon that sends most armored troopers flying and being further drained from dueling with an ex stormtrooper in what was probably his first actual lightsaber duel ever?

Imagine that.

Lando had the hyperdrive fixed while they were in Cloud City, Vader had it deactivated before they escaped. Robin just reactivated it. Fuck, it's like you skimmed through the fucking movie.

i agree, i was just being factual

*R2 fucking autocorrect

that would mean anakin is weak cause he lost limbs and that's not true
the force doesn't rely in your material strenght

why didn't the bowcaster do to kylo what it did to the itroopers?

he spinnned

if that was true why did they need to steal a ship and pass the shield to go to the moon?

that generator is for the death star
endor has another generator for itself
otherwise an xwing could destroy the death star shield generator.

that's why i asked if the shield also protected its own generator. they don't need to put a shield around the entire moon

Let's be fair, it did take them like, forty years to build

> to build a fleet bigger than the Empire's

Theres nothing to suggest they had a fleet larger than the empires. A single new star destroyer and a few squadrons of Tie Fighters.

The Starkiller was essential specifically so they could destroy the new republic fleet.

The Resistance was basically Space Hezbollah and got alot of spare hand me down equipment.

planets in star wars have their own shield generator like the one in phantom menace
death star was not protected by the planet generator cause it's in space
the shield generator han blows up is only for the death star

If you hit something at light speed it will be the same as a light speed object of equal mass hitting you while you are not even moving so enjoy creating a explosion the size of a continent fucktard.

Yeah, it's faster. If hyperspace was only the speed of light, Star Wars would be really boring because it would take years to travel across the galaxy.

You're missing the point. Remember what happened to Anakin when he lost his hand? He was out of the fight immediately. He wasn't even moving. The fact that Kylo Ren was still running around with that gunshot wound is crazy already.

Take the best martial arts fighter in the world. Shoot him in the stomach. You could probably beat him now, right?

Because Hyperspace/lightspeed don't actually work like that, but JJ said screw it and broke the rules anyways.
That's why he's a hack, he doesn't give a shit if things make sense or not. As long as it looks "cool" in his head.

the briefing scene says nothing about the entire moon having a shield. do you have a source for that?

>so enjoy creating a explosion the size of a continent fucktard.

You mean the kind of explosion that could destroy a shield generator? How convenient! If only there was some way to remotely pilot a ship....but no, that technology is something that we only have today, Star Wars was a long time ago...

he may be wounded but we see him cut from the force as he can't grab the lightsaber while he's show stoping a laser
kind of bullshit desu
In the dark empire han and leia had 2 boys and 1 girl
Rei should be the daughter of Luke and the other brothers should've been the ones fighting Kylo

>Endor
didn't have a shield

It doesn't say anything, but it's implied. If the moon doesn't have a shield generator, what is stopping a rebel ship from just flying down there and blowing it up?

yes it did otherwise han mission is pointless

the shield apparently also protects its own generator

He's not cut from the force, Rey was just stronger in that moment.

Dark Empire is the worst thing to come out of the shitty EU.

Kylo Ren is basically Anakin Solo with a darker ending already anyway.

they tried to rip off the New Jedi Order's Imperial Remnants but Jew Jew fucked it up because he's a hack

no, no source but it's the only way for the han mission to make sense

>Dark Empire is the worst thing to come out of the shitty EU.
why?

Oh man, where to begin....

Sheev isn't really dead he used a horcrux lmao
World Devastators and a bunch of new star destroyers out of nowhere reverse everything in episode 6
Sheev creating black holes with the force
Luke tuns to the dark side, rendering episode 6 pointless
Sheev wants to put his soul into the body of a toddler
But Han shoots him in the face. The end.

What makes you think that it does?

because otherwise it could be attacked with aircraft or ranged weapons

needing a code to fly in the sector is not out of the question. The movie only says the DS has the shield.

>But Han shoots him in the face. The end.
I like the sound of this.

But yes, looks like shit. Wow.

Luckily TFA headed to a different direction, right guys?

Guys?

they do have to give a clearance code to get the imperials to deactivate the deflector shield, allowing them to land the strike force on endor

The biggest plothole in scifi series is that they already have planet destroying warfare all they have to is chuck a mass of matter about the size of a mountain at the speed of light and that would fuck up a planet big time.

The death star could have been fucked by chucking FTL chunks of matter at it.

They use tape drive computers. Such calculations would be impossible.

no they have to give a code to fly to the planet. They would need a different one to fly to the DS to do business there.

>Sheev isn't really dead he used a horcrux lmao
Sheev in Revenge of the Sith: "Darth Plagueis could cheat death, he showed me how, the dark Side is unnatural

>World Devastators and a bunch of new star destroyers out of nowhere reverse everything in episode 6
Not really they came from the deep core where Palpatine have been building other ships
Do you really believe all the imperial fleet was destroyed in the endo battle?
Han says they are many capital ships in ROTJ

>Luke tuns to the dark side, rendering episode 6 pointless
Not really, he makes this to know more about the emperor and the dark side and it works

>Sheev creating black holes with the force
Darth Vader in A new hope: "the power to destroy a planet is insignificant next to the power of the force"

>But Han shoots him in the face. The end.
Not what happens
Han shoots him
He doesn't care cause he's about to transport the soul
goes to the toddler knowing they won't kill him
the jedi gets in the way and traps him
sheev can't posess a body of a grown jedi wich make sense
sheev dies

What else?

Because large gravitational fields cause you to drop out of hyperspace and TFA is a retconning piece of shit

No, the dark empire is superior in every wat

I'll add that it's also stupid to have one code only. The movie doesn't have this problem because it shows multiple codes are used.

>Because large gravitational fields cause you to drop out of hyperspace
this

Havent seen ESB on a while, but wasn't there a fleet there guarding as well. I know more imperial ships come out of hyperspace to spring the trap, but IIRC there were still some originally there

how did they enter hyperspace from the planet surface, when escaping the dust tsunami?

yes, but they're not going to the death star
