Why didn't they just do pic related against the deaths tar?
>>220500076It's really shocking to me how little thought was put into all of this.
>>220500076Its highly unethical and mean
>>220500076Why didn't Luke just fly like Leia into the deathstar and did a kamehameha like Rey did when she fought Palpatine

What was the goal of the resistance anyways? Self governance? Pretty racist and nationalist when you think about it.
>>220500864why didn't the resistance trust the science?
>>220500546blowing it up is far more ethical.
>>220500864The First Order were the Alliance to Restore the Empire -- they were the REAL resistance!
>>220500076why didn't Luke just fly the Eagles to the Death Star?
>>220500076Explain why this wouldnt work
>>220500076>Why didn't they just do pic related against the deaths tar?Because men aren't smart enough or brave enough to think of doing such a thing. Only the strong and brilliant woman is capable of pulling off such a thing.Rey, Holdo, Leia, Phasma, all strong and brilliant women. You men are inferior, don't you know.
>>220501359You're missing the point entirely. It's not a matter of whether this tactic would work, but the fact that it retroactively undermines every battle to have ever occurred in this setting as well as any to come; it begs the question: "why aren't they always doing this?". The reality is that no competent writer would allow it to happen because it utterly destroys the universe since entire planets could be wiped out effortlessly in an instant by unmanned spacecraft. Not only would you legitimately have to explain why this hadn't happened before (which can't be done seriously as there is no legitimate reason for an overwhelmed rebel force not to resort to it) but why it can't happen again. Not to mention that this is essentially a war crime and should have been perpetrated by the Empire/First Order.
>>220501359The question that scene raised is, why hadn't the Empire or rebellion thought to create an armada of unmanned drone ships that could hyperspace themselves into death stars, capital ships, and moon bases as a routine battle tactic? Such attacks would be 100% effective and 0% defensible. We call that a plot hole the size of Texas.
if something traveled faster than light wouldnt the impact literally just destroy whatever it touches as if 400.000 nukes went off?i get that if you enter an Underlevel, or an ether state maybe thats not how the ftl travel would work, but seems kinda silly to cheat, by entering another dimension and then popping out retaining all speed and being able to deliver a payload like this
>>220501497>>220501501>y-you cant make a scene of hyperspace kamikaze pilots even though its obvious everyone would be doing it because.... you just cant OK?Sounds like something they should have accounted for at the beginning and not wait 50 years for some dude to completely BTFO their entire shitty franchise kek
>>220501414God I love women so much.
>>220501642They did, Han explained it in A New Hope. If they warped into a star or planet they'd simply die.
>>220501678>Han explained it in A New Hope. If they warped into a star or planet they'd simply die.Sure about that?https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5uMuYrQzIR8
They didn’t have a strong leader like Haldo in place yet to perform the now standard issue Haldo maneuver has brought Jihadi peace upon the galaxy once and for all
>>220501759Yes I'm sure that the sequels buttfucked lore. Any further questions?
>>220501889Yes, why are you a triptranny in the year 2010+16?
>>220501898Accountability.
>>220500076>Why didn't they just do this against the death star
>>220500076No one thought about it. It's called the holdo maneuver because she invented it.Try watching the movie next time?
It's so staggeringly lazy. All they had to do was introduce a "Hyperspace shield" that prevented people from entering/exiting hyperdrive within a certain range so as to explain why this shit hadn't happened before. Then have Poe and that goblin disable it and there, you can have your spectacle.
>>220502099Honestly it'd be better to avoid involving the hyperdrive at all. Maybe make it some technobabble about overloading their tractor beam so that it suicidally slingshots the ships together. Could even spin it into some explanation for why you can't tractor beam ships over a certain size and play it off as First Order hubris.
>>220502099Writers strike happened because California burned Hollywood to the ground. Total bummer.
