Like the Leia getting force powers out of nowhere in space. Sheesh.

    There are some.

    The Death Planet ih the new trilogy destroyed the exact same way as Luke destroyed the Death Star.

    The fact that they realized that “parsec” is a length unit, and they came up with a total bullshit explanation for “doing the Kessel run in 12 parsec”.

    Nearly every maintenance infrastructure built like a giant death trap. The reactor room where Maul killed Qui-Gon, the scene where Luke realizes that Vader is his father, and so on.

      The Kessel run thing was done in the EU books ages ago, but honestly I still liked the idea that Han was just talking out his ass (and obi wan’s expression actually works for this idea).

      Each trilogy is pretty much a rerun of the last, blow up something big first movie - but oh no it was only the start. Finish with blowing up something bigger

      Kessel run is really just a personal preference then, cause like it entirely fits the lore just you don’t like it so we shouldn’t?

      A massive part of star wars is the aesthetic, and sure its not always gonna be 100% reasonable bit like those scenes probably wouldn’t be as interesting in a 4’ x 4’ storage closet in an office space

      (also fits the empires idea of things need to look pretty on top, but beneath they couldn’t care less about health and safety, as long as they remain I power)

        The Kessel run might fit the lore, but the lore was clearly added after the fact and it’s so much of a stretch that the black holes look like silhouettes that were made for me on the other side
