DROPPING BOMBS IN SPACE EDITION

>>200696203the tie bomber is typically portrayed as shooting its ordinance, and not literally dropping it.

>>200696345it's shooting bombs at the asteroid. if they were dropped they wouldn't move that fast.
>>200695965I 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.
>>200695965What's wrong with it? Did downward momentum disappear in space?
>>200695965It's stupid but aren't they magnetically propelled downward and would thus continue their trajectory?
>>200696414we tried to warn you
/tv/ when they learn that magnets exist
>>200696675>>200696746What 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?
>>200696203torpedo bomber>>200695965flying 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
>>200695965>DROPPING BOMBS IN SPACE EDITIONAny 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.
>>200699700>significantNo
>>200695965>“We did all go, ‘How do bombs drop in space?'” Morris told Nerdist. “And we sat there for ages. And then Rian [Johnson] said, ‘They’re Maglev [magnetic] bombs. It’s Star Wars. Let’s not worry. Let’s move on.'”
>>200699700>the mass17 charnocks
>>200700106>It’s Star Wars. Let’s not worry. Let’s move on.These 3 sentences sum up all of the problems with modern Star Wars.>How does this work?>I don't know. The force or some shit.>Fuck it, sounds good to me. Let's go get some lunch.
>>200700343I 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 storyI've seen gamemasters do the same thing
>>200700553>needs to talk to c3po to talk to r2Just plain wrong
>>200698099based analysis the opposition has no counter arguments
>>200701209yes, in a new hope he does, for more complicated sentenceshe gets better at it as the series progresses
>>200695965>we need a b-wing but way shittier>say no more senpai
>>200696675did it appear?
>>200697145its supposed to be rule of cool. rule doesn’t work if it looks gay instead of cool.
>>200695965woman pilots and admirals is even funnierEspecially when they have dyed tumblr hair
>>200700139how many charnocks in a parsec?
>>200697081>spaceships are always made out of iron
>>200700343>>200700553People don't hate this Rian Johnson movie enough because it has a couple neat sequences and concepts in itBut 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
>>200702816the 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.
>>200700106>It’s Star Wars. Let’s not worry. Let’s move on.>>200702816>shut the fuck up and stop thinking about itI get insulted when I am treated this way. Why don't other people get insulted too?
>>200695965these 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.
>>200696345It shoots balls of energy, it doesn’t drop bombs.
>>200695965So, 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?
>>200703392>needs to take drugs to enjoy movies>able to be stupid, at will>calls others retarded
>>200697081FUCKING MAGNETS HOW DO THEY WORK? :Dmidichlorians
>>200700106>NerdistNerdiest
>>200700106>It’s Star Wars. Let’s not worry. Let’s move on.That's what I did, eye thang you!
>>200703052>Why don't other people get insulted too?because they're cowards who sell their souls to hang lights and do what theyre told for $$
>>200695965I 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.
>>200696243Why would a repulsor field pushing the bombs down from the big thing's bomb bay need to be visible
>>200695965>space nuke>space bombersWhy not do a space holocaust next?
>>200700553frankly I just don't like Rey because it's completely and utterly unbelievable to me that a woman can beat men at anything than is not whoring out or cooking or some shit
>>200695965Checkmate! Sorry, atheists.
>>200703364see>>200696203it drops proton bombs
>>200705455Shut up basedboy. You're a dumb stupid basedboy.
>>200706492Is wittle baby mad? Is wittle baby gonna cwy?
>>200695965How 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.
>>200706626>How do you think bombs fall down on Earth?There's a fat midget inside every one.
>>200706708There's a fat lip-smacking midget in a hamster wheel chasing a burger on a string inside each of them.
>>200701722>look how they massacred my b-wing
>>200706905
>>200706787And they... speak ebonics???
>>200706905>>200707033Even the supposed fighter version for the Resistance has anemic looking weapons compared to the original.
>>200696345did you even watch ur own video, you stupid faggot?
>>200707412Did you? it's shot for shot of allied bombers dropping ordinance probably what Lucas used as test footage
>>200697145Shielded payload, get in under shields. Use gravity generators to push out payload.An efficient system
