>attempt watch the supposedly "good" disney star wars movie
>they put a moisture farm on a lush planet with grass
NOPE, I'm out
>>
Maybe they export the moisture to desert planets for profit because there's a lack of manufacturing industries on the Mads Mikkelsen planet.

Disney has never understood Star Wars beyond just a collection of visuals and action figures for them to smash together
they don't know what any of this stuff is or does
they don't know that that's a moisture vaporator, they just know that it's a thing that they saw in Star Wars that one time, so they'll sprinkle it around in their new shit to try to recapture some of that old authenticity for their own stuff, to make it feel like it's real and like it fits in with the real stuff
so everything that they make ends up feeling just as flat and empty as it is

death to Disney Wars

Look at how damp his hair and clothes are. Why does he need to farm moisture.
>>
>>221799491
Why farm moisture when you can farm aura?
>>
>>221799111
rogue one is absolute shit. retards just claim it's good because andor was solid
>>
>>221799111
Why do you say it's a moisture farm? Because of the tower? On tatooine the towers collect the moisture and they sell it because there's no plants to water. Here they collect the moisture and water the crops with it because it's easier for them than digging a well or finding a stream and pumping it.
>>
>>221799582
Do you have a screenshot of his crops? I just see wild grass.

thats a midichlorian extractor

Well they do go out of their way to show a barren volcanic planet with his farm in the rain shadow of a mountain
>>
>>221799111
Perhaps there's no drinkable groundwater and it's easier to collect moisture than filter the parasites out of the water.
Nevermind, you know what, you're right, let's make another movie to explain this plot hole like rogue one was made to explain a 'design flaw' on the death star (everything has weaknesses, and one that can only be exploited by a million to one shot is what we call an acceptable risk. It's there for the same reason your car has a windshield even though glass can break.) because you have no ability to think for yourself and fill in plot holes with obvious conclusions.

It was crap except for the ship battle at the end and >>221799745
Yeah the Vader scene was cool
>>
>>221799787
Supposed to be a callback to Vader's "apology accepted" gag since his only character trait before meeting Luke was "he's intimidating to his subordinates".
>>
>>221799111
Because the thought of what moisture farms farm never actually crossed their minds.

"Moisture farm" to their mind just means "space farm" and thats the entire depth of their thought.
>>
>>221799886
bullshit, its obviously a water collector for a dry world where ground water is scarce but its in the moisture in the air.
This tech was scifi at the time but modular water extractors now exist that can pull drinking water out of the air
>>
>>221799491
Because it can be done anywhere. Like 7/11s
>>
>>221799561
Rogue One only won me over after Andor. It genuinely needs Andor to be any good but it's still like a bad series finale to Andor.
>>
>>221800018
>obviously a water collector for a dry world
What is obvious about that?
>>
>>221799561
Andor is shit, too, you fucking dumb zoomer.
>>
It was better than the movies that came out on either side of it but that doesn’t necessarily make it good. I don’t like Star Wars to begin with though and only saw these movies because my Gen X parents made it a tradition to see starslop any time it came out in theaters.
>>
>>221800290
how the fuck would you get water when you need it to live? in a god damn desert
>>
>>221800390
Ok but how is it obvious that that prop is a water collector for a dry world?
>>
>>221800421
>how is it obvious that that prop is a water collector for a dry world
By showing the prop surrounded by moisture in a dry world

Disney Wars is straight up just cargo cult film making, they slap a bunch of shit together because it tangentially resembles the old movies, and they know the old movies were a license to print money so they just go
>fuck it uh put some TIE fighters and X-wings in it
>have them fly the Millennium Falcon
>lightsabers and levitating rocks I don't fucking know, put it all in, CGI Red Leader, go nuts
and then wonder why the money isn't showing up.

>>221799111
>>221799491
Maybe he needs a source of drinking water and can't dig a well for one reason or another you fat retard
>>
>>221799561
Andor sucks too. People try to tell me "oh it's a great spy drama in the star wars setting" but it's not even that, it's just boring. None of the characters are remotely interesting, it's just more
>hey you guys remember TIE fighters? remember stormtroopers?
>>
>>221800421
they are on a "moisture farm" and thats the only technological thing in the picture
>>
>>221800585
When does anyone say it's a moisture farm?
>>
>>221799825
I rewatched Rogue One recently and holy shit I fucking hate how they retroactively change the death star thing to
>actually Mads deliberately made the exhaust port a weakness and made it so that if someone shoots it it automatically blows up the entire base
It not only makes the Empire fucking retarded for not noticing that someone made a deliberate fault in their battle station that's somehow wired to blow up the whole fucking reactor in one go, it makes the Rebels look retarded because now it turns out they had to be told about it rather than getting the plans for the Death Star and working it out themselves.
>>
>>221800442
It's surrounded by greenery on a world that seems to have a humid temperate climate.
>>
>>221800603
Because the exact same props were used on Tatooine for the Lars' moisture farm.

And? It might have different settings for different ecosystems or the guts might be different depending on the model. The ones on tatooine might be the x series and these are the xe or something.
>>
>>221799831
The ship battle was fucking stupid as well
>somehow have a "gate" in a planetary shield
>everything about the stupid ram frigate scene
>blowing up the gate somehow lowers the entire planet's shield
>shields physically stopping ships in Rogue One but then Kylo can somehow fly straight through them in TLJ

>>221800707
How would we know? It's just there in the movie because "lol star wars background prop".

>>221800248
rogue one has the same problem andor has… not enough saw.

It's just harvesting time. He's accidentally splashed a little crop of moisture on himself.
>>
>>221800735
so what difference does it make what it's supposed to be in the story? It's just there to establish a sci-fi setting using a prop from the 70's which also establishes continuity with the franchise

C'mon now, you'd still complain if Saw and his left wing death squads got more screen time even though they're cool

>>221799561
Yes. Andor is by far the best Star Wars product and Rogue one nearly ruins it. Rogue one is shit.
>>
>>221800949
Exactly, it's literally only there so that Disney can convey to audiences
>see you fucking idiots it's Star Wars, do you remember the Star Wars thing
Cargo cult film making. No context, just slapping shit together in a scene.

And shit like this gets approved over and over again demoralizing anyone involved in production who actually gives a shit.

>>221800614
I agree with you, but I want to prove a point, so.
On the blueprints for a station the size of a goddamn moon, where there is presumably huge levels of necessary delegation instead of a handful of people intimately familiar with every detail, it is perfectly understandable that a change like that would be missed. It's quite easy to assume everyone working on it had 'their job' and just assumed those changes were someone else's job, someone else's responsibility, and that that person knew what they were doing. On a project like this nobody understands everything about how it all fits together. I'm not a numbers guy but somewhere out there there is one who can crunch the numbers on how long a single architect spends on a house, how big the death star is in comparison to a house, and how much time it would take to plan it, and that person, were he here, would inevitably tell us there is no way this project would be accomplished in a reasonable timeframe without being a massive collaborative effort.

In the eighties, we assumed people were smart enough to think about things like this. We also assumed people were smart enough to recognize that the reason the movie doesn't explain them is because it isn't important to the plot. It's a movie about the rebels fighting the evil empire, not a movie about the perils of superstructure engineering. But nowadays everyone nitpicks all these 'plot holes' instead of just using their fucking heads, and I'm sick of it, and sick of filmmakers responding to these nitpicks like they are serious criticism.

Unintentionally accurate.

Vaporators automatically create filtered water out of atmospheric moisture at humidity grades as low as 0.8%. There's no rule stating that it won't work in a humid environment. Better than dredging up groundwater or waiting for the rains.
