the tie bomber is typically portrayed as shooting its ordinance, and not literally dropping it.

Wrong

it's shooting bombs at the asteroid. if they were dropped they wouldn't move that fast.

I watched this on cable the other day and couldn't believe how stupid it was either. Thanks for reminding me of the 3 hours I wasted.

What's wrong with it? Did downward momentum disappear in space?
>>
>>200695965
It's stupid but aren't they magnetically propelled downward and would thus continue their trajectory?

What is the advantage of slowly flying this piece of shit directly over your target while it shoots you the entire way so you can drop these bombs versus, you know, shooting them forwards at the target from a hundred miles away?
>>
>>200696203
torpedo bomber

>>200695965
flying fortress

flying fortresses were never used in naval battles (well achtually they were but with near zero efficiency). star wars space combat is basically ww2 naval warfare, therefore this shit from tlj doesn't belong there

Any fanboy know the mass of the deathstar?
Big enough to generate a significant gravitational field?
I mean, to the untrained eye, it looks like a small moon.

I think that Ruined Johnson is lazy. He comes up with some ideas for what he thinks are cool scenes and then sloppily tries to tie them together with a half-assed story
I've seen gamemasters do the same thing

People don't hate this Rian Johnson movie enough because it has a couple neat sequences and concepts in it
But it's absolutely grave that they have this extended dialogue scene where they discuss how the time machine works and the answer boils down to "Of course it makes no sense, shut the fuck up and stop thinking about it"

It's worse when you compare it to a movie like The Terminator where the time travel rules are completely internally consistent yet Kyle Reese's exposition is still "I don't know, I didn't build the fucking thing!"
The man's childish narrative laziness is his hallmark; see also Knives Out somehow absolutely fumbling the very simple timeworn concept of an Agatha Christie mystery
>>
>>200702816
the whole movie's premise is that they can't kill in the future because of trackers and shit.. they kill his wife in the process of kidnapping him.

these cutaways were great as a kid.
I'd just look at regular stuff/shapes around the house and imagine them as compartmentalized ships for fun with little people inside.

It shoots balls of energy, it doesn’t drop bombs.

>>200695965
So, a "light sword" with a light beam that ends after a meter or so is realistic? Have you ever seen two light beams interact in a significant way? Or what about laser cannons making pew pew sounds IN SPACE?
This shit is meant to be enjoyed while having the brain switched off by being drunk or high or both. Are you watching this shit sober? Why are you so retarded?

I really don't get this dumb criticism. There are million ways that you can explain how it's possible for the bombs to be effectively propelled downwards, that are consistent with our laws of physics. But even if there weren't any, then why do you have a problem with that now? There are many aspects of the Star Wars universe since the OT, that are absolutely irreconcilable with out physics, like starships exceeding the speed of light. This just seems like grasping at straws. The movie made you feel bad, so you work backwards from the conclusion to try to justify it. Not saying that the movie is good, but this is beyond retarded.

How do you think bombs fall down on Earth?
A Spaceship also has mass, and thus a gravitational well.
If you drop the bombs close enough to it, they'll "fall" into the spaceship.

Shielded payload, get in under shields. Use gravity generators to push out payload.

An efficient system
