Not a single one of those is a legitimate plot holes. They are all convenient.
That’s more realistic than you’d think. You don’t instantly die in space. You can survive a relatively short period of time with minor ill-effects.
Or ya know...... force bubble.
Or the giant spaceworm that somehow contains an atmosphere within its mouth that it also leaves open all the time.
In Empire, what is the timeline of Han and Leia leaving Hoth and arriving at Bespin (a day? two days?) vs. Luke’s time spent on Dagobah (a week? two weeks?)
Those sets were very expensive, thank you very much.
And getting all pissy about Star Wars’ bad grasp of physics this late in the game is really stupid.
Don’t remember the TIE bombers in TESB dropping bombs on that asteroid then?
Yo, I fell asleep during Rogue One, and you still haven’t described any scenes, characters, or plot points that specifically bothered you, so bye.
Plus, Star Wars is fantasy, not sci-fi, so let’s not get too hung up on space physics.
If you can buy open-air space docks on the Death Star you can buy someone surviving in the vacuum of space for a few seconds with the help of mystic space magic.
Fair point, so I can only assume Empire Strikes Back is ruined for you due to the impossible physics of Han’s space garbage trick before the Star Destroyer went into hyperspace.
Eh what can you do, they basically wanted to make sure they didn’t rehash Empire Strikes Back like Force Awakans did with New Hope, so they took a chance, got rid of the legacy human characters and tried for a different kind of story, you can’t really fault them for wanting to take the franchise in a creative new…
Hell, people have been fine with it having sound in space since 1977,
A.) You’re applying a basis of logic the movie has no interest in using. Hyperspace in Star Wars takes however long the story needs hyperspace to take.
Exactly. Anyone who comes at a particular point in TLJ (or any star wars film) and attacks it for “physics being ignored” has to understand that they are watching STAR WARS for FORCE’s SAKE! There is no physics. There are giant ships that float off the ground for no reason. There are tiny ships that can travel faster…
The bombs have an in-universe reasoning. Magnets or some shit that guide them toward the target. But honestly, it’s just called suspension of disbelief. This isn’t hard science fiction, it’s space fantasy. Any other complaints you have are subjective; Personally I didn’t find any of the acting cheesy, or the sets…
Also, I doubt the 1977 film would have gained so much traction in the wider culture if there hadn’t been that kind of cinematic shorthand (thing dropped, thing fall). It’s a very simply-told swashbuckling knight-errant tale, and throwing “2001"-style hard sci-fi physics into it would have done no service to the film…
The visual guide says it’s magnets
Accurate physics isn’t important to Star Wars. Hell, it’s not even important to Star Trek. Both are way over on the fantasy to hard science fiction spectrum. Star Trek has consistantly migrated towards the fantasy side since “The Cage”. Star Wars never cared about physics and that’s just fine. Complaining about the…
For how long? Skin makes a perfectly ok pressure suit for a bit. However, you’d likley have some epic bloodshot eyes. Lack of oxygen is what would kill you and that takes at least a couple of minutes. Then you’d freeze or roast according to your proximity to a sun and exposure. And magic is pretty standard for this…
