Why was Leia still close to her cruiser when she got sucked out? Sure, in the real world she would have kept her momentum and would drift as fast as her ship, but the medical frigate falls back as soon as her fuel runs out.

The sense of scale in Star Wars movies is absolutely fucked, there's no reason whatever for something that big to exist, continuing the tradition of Death Stars and the Starkiller base.
John Brooks
So if they have mobile weapons factories why don't they build their own weapons?

The Executor-class Super Star Destroyers were about 12 miles long. Growing up I always heard that the Empire had 4 of them. That was the established scale of The Empire's starfleet. The fleet commanded by Darth Vader in Episode 5 is thus probably 10-20% of the total active firepower of the galactic navy.
Where the fuck is the sense of scale in the new movies? It's absurd
Leo Wilson
When Finn wanted to leave in lifepod, where did he expect to go? He didn't know that a planet was in range, and with the Supremacy right behind them it was pointless to begin with.

Star wars space is treated more like aerial fights, I mean... Bombers and sleeve show""falling"" out of side when they run out of fuel.
Adam Lopez
The whole slow chase works dramatically for a few reasons: 1) You're watching the rebel ships fall one by one, so as a viewer you're not really worrying about "Why doesn't the FO just do ___"; things seem to be going in the FO's favor, instead you worry about how the rebels will somehow survive the encounter. 2) It speaks to Hux's hubris. He's like a predator that believes it has caught, and is toying with, its prey. Even if they did make a hyperspace jump, he can simply chase them, and so on. There are a few other character-driven reasons as well why Hux might not want to ask Snoke to radio more ships to hyperjump in front of the rebels.
If you're so disconnected from the dramatic thrust of a film that you're worried about plot holes, then it's a problem with the film's dramatic thrust. Plot holes in Star Wars are never the real problem.

Hudson Hernandez

Another similar 'space gothic' idea is the wooden planet of monks, proposed for Alien 3. That would have been on a par with Bladerunner cinematically.
Anyway I don't even understand how the Order became powerful so quickly. It totally cheapens the events of RoTJ. Star Wars ended there. They could have done a new trilogy based in the KOTOR era, but they had to bring back Harrison Ford.
Levi Gomez
why are they so afraid of including new designs and live off nostalgia yet preach about forgetting the past and moving on
Thomas King
Why is that a problem? It's realistic for there to be illogical shit in fiction.
Matthew Ward
>Islamic State is called Khawarij by other muslims >this quote about the Khawarij >"If they ever gained strength, they would surely corrupt the whole of the Earth, Iraq and Shaam – they would not leave a baby, male or female, neither a man or a woman, because as far as they are concerned the people have caused corruption, a corruption that cannot be rectified except by mass killing."
Tell me that doesn't sound like it could be about the Vong.
Angel Robinson
And X-wings wouldn't be that agile without directional thrusters.
Blake Smith
>Don't understand how the order became so powerful so quick Here's pasta to help you through that >Mon Mothma's first act as Chancellor of the New Republic was to sign a peace treaty leaving the Empire in control of a third of the galaxy, then cut the military by 90% and refocus the Republic's priority on internal trade and cooperation >when Leia Organa objected, she was outed as Darth Vader's daughter and ostracized as a warmonger, that's why the entire "Resistance" is a handful of shitty X-wings she bought with her own money and why the Empire was able to build a new fleet, army and Super Death Star without the Republic that defeated them noticing or caring until after they were all dead That's canon and supported by everything that happens onscreen in Episode VII, enjoy it
Brody Wilson
Now THIS is autism

That can be hand waived by supposing the four exhaust nozzles have differential thrust imbalancing.

Except he is highly stressed and angry all the time not to mention terrorized of Snoopy so this makes 0 sense and is obviously just a fantasy you created to justify stor wors babytier writing
Landon Cook
The complete disregard for scale is a trend I've noticed in many shows and movies recently. Game of Thrones has characters and armies zip around a huge continent in days, and armies are as numerous and competent as they need to be in a given scene, with no regard for continuity or consistency. It's the same in other shows.
It's obvious that sense of scale, consistency, logic, etc. are completely ancillary to soap opera interpersonal drama. The question is: is this an intentional design choice, or do the creators just lack all understanding of these things?
Brody Lewis
Make it STOP
Noah Kelly
>is this intentional or do they lack the understanding? Whenever this question comes up, even generally in life, the answer is incompetence 99% of the time.
Austin Rogers
it does fit with the WW2 in space theme from the OT though
Jordan Lee
what? just because it's fiction don't mean it doesn't need to make sense.
They literally had an army having a coffee break on the main ship while they were slowly chasing another ship.
"lol, it's fiction" isn't a reason.
Alexander Clark
Yes but the design is retarded. They're slow as fuck but also so fragile a piece of Tie fighter can go right through one, causing a chain reaction which blew up three
Gabriel Williams
>artificial gravity projectors
How the fuck is than even possible in the slightest
Asher Perry
>the lower part that carries the bombs is a detachable "clip" (their words not mine) fucking why? wouldn't that significantly fuck up the ships' structural integrity?
Austin Young
Why don't they use 3 times as many TIE fighter in every single SW Film?
Jaxson Smith
So you leave the enemy a third of the territory, and you fire your entire army.
And they thought this was a good idea.
But then when the new Empire stroke back, again, the New Republic didn't do anything about and everything was left in the hands of the new Rebellion, again.
Pure genius.
David Cox
It makes more sense in 40k though with whole generations of slaves being born and dying aboard. They basically turn up on planets and slave gang thousands of people to keep the numbers up too
Ayden Butler
Yeah, or some sort gravity field engine we don't get to see.
Colton Taylor
It could have been like master and commander in space. Instead we got this fuckwittery

To be honest, New Republic was shit even in the old canon. I really don't know why they even try anymore. Empire is clearly the superior government.

They project a bubble in which 1 g standard gravity is maintained. This also counters any g-forces felt at rapid acceleration.
Anthony Campbell
Tarantino would have done that. Boarding parties charging each other's ships. Close quarters combat. Hand to hand. Somewhere a desperate blood-soaked survivor is blasting the smoking hole of a stormtrooper whose body keeps twitching every time the widl-eyed survivor keeps shooting into the helmet over and over again with metronomic fanaticism until there is nothing left but a nubbin of neck bone. A compatriot gently touched the combat-crazed lunatic on the shoulder.Jolted from his murder-drunk reverie his head snaps to.
