I don't know other than to say I've never seen hyper space work that way over short distances. It hasn't been introduced in the SW universe so the lack of it happening here doesnt make me question it. The biggest example, IMO, of this is the introduction of suicide hyper jumping. Why haven't we seen that before if it's always been possible? But i really think of you start questioning this stuff too much you'll never be able to enjoy anything in star wars. But everyone has there threshold...

You’ve once again missed the point, which is your normal, regardless of subject

Not likely

I've seen this sentiment in multiple places and it really wouldn't surprise me, either. I was too young to really remember it, but I'm told Empire was kind of the same. People were divided about it. Many said it was terrible, that it was too different from Star Wars. And now it's fairly universally regarded as the best one.

I'm not saying the exact same thing will happen with TLJ. It's a different time. But it wouldn't surprise me if it happened.

I think at the very least there will be a mellowing. Once there are other Star Wars films and Ep 9 gives more total context to the trilogy overall, I think people will settle about it. And that's on both sides.

And you have demonstrated that you can't communicate in an internet chat room without being a total dick -
regardless of subject, which is your normal.

Agreed.

Who have I been a "dick" to, huh?

You're the guy that's dismissing people's opinions, not me, which I highlighted in my quote.

You're a child. Go back to the 49ers forum where you belong.

Kathleen Kennedy, Rian Johnson, Disney...just to name a few. **** you!

Why didn't 100 or more drones "hyperspace" into the Death Star or the Starkiller?

Why didn't a few drones "hyperspace into" the shield gate mechanism on Scarif?

Why didn't one hundred drones "hyperspace into" the second Death Star, especially if they knew Emperor was on board?

If the solution to destroying a huge object is just to set a path in which to hyperspace into said object, the Empire wouldn't take the time to build planet killing machines, which would basically nullify the OT and Rogue One.

LMAO

I didn't dismiss anyone's opinion. I respectfully disagreed that close range hyper space jumping, or rather the lack of it, was not a plot whole for me and why. That's how you have a normal conversation. I didn't say he was wrong, i didn't say he was dumb, i didn't say he should leave the conversation because his opinion is different than mine. That would be a dick move and is what you do in almost every post that doesn't align with your view.

That's revisionist history. I was 14 years old when The Empire Strikes Back was released and I didn't know of a single person that didn't absolutely love that film.

It's still my favorite in the series to this day.

Speculation, based on your feelings on the film.

More speculations, based on your feelings of the film.

Right. This is a plot whole for me. I hate agreeing with you, but this is a problem for me. I've chosen to let it go, but as I said before, everyone has their threshold.

RINGLEADER and I have already pointed out that it's a massive "plot hole".

If a ship can hyperspace into a large ship or space station and destroy it, why is there an ongoing war? Hyperspace drones could quickly and easily destroy said space craft or planet killer, thus wiping out the need for Star Wars movies.

Major: "Sir, we've detected a massive object the size of a small moon that could destroy this planet"

General: "Send in the Hyperspace Drones and destroy it".

Major: "General, massive object destroyed".

General: "Awesome opossum".
