Mate, someone who says they disagree with you and then proceeding to provide examples of why they do in a polite and respectful way is not someone “slamming” your experience and opinion, it’s someone having a discussion about a differing experience and opinion.

I appreciate your respectful response.

They never say what the boxes are. “Easy to figure out” =/= revealed. Yes, you can infer that they’re more zombie troopers, but it’s never outright stated.

[sic] is used propertly here.

Very true, except the Night Troopers are loading the cargo onto the ISD, not unloading it. The payment to the Night Sisters is to transport them and their cargo back to the SW galaxy.

Why do we keep trying to explain the force when Yoda did so perfectly in Empire?

Then again, Star Wars is supposed to be a space fantasy, not hard science fiction, and a defining characteristic of contemporary fantasy fiction is that people are able to get around in a hurry without any clear means of expedited transportation.

This is the basis of the explanation for the “speed” of the Falcon being measured using distance, right?

Someone needed to come back to tell Morgan Elsbeth that the secret to finding Thrawn was following intergalactic purrgil migration patterns.

so they can only go where the hyperspace lanes go, like cars on a freeway

This would also require star systems to be much more closely packed than in the Milky Way. In the episode they went from entering the system (where their communications were blocked) to approaching a planet in the habitable zone in just a few seconds. In the real world, it takes light about 4 hours to travel from the…

I mean, if you’re going to get to that level of pedantry, they’re not traveling at all. It’s a television show.

One of the faceless 10,000. This is shown a few times during Rebels, including where we see how much both Ezra and Kanan struggle fighting against inquisitors that Ahsoka later handles easily by herself.

They’re traveling at the speed of light, right?

“why even arm a droid with a sword when IG-11 demonstrates how short range and defensive that would remain”

Outside of the small herb garden setups you mentioned, these systems will never pay themselves off.

The Clone Wars takes seasons to get good, and even after it gets good it still has some stinkers. It has very high highs and deep terrible lows. If you legit want to watch the stuff and just can’t get past the garbage, look around for some best of lists that cherry pick the best story arcs and just watch those (most…

Take the Guardians of the Galaxy movies. They’re deeply embedded within the MCU, but they’re largely a standalone affair. I imagine this is why Spielberg loves the first movie so much. The one big exception is Gamora dying and being replaced by her alt-universe self in Infinity War/Endgame, but this is mostly…

Arts & Entertainment make up the 9th largest industry in the US and accounts for over 4% of the GDP, but yeah, it doesn’t matter.

Every Star Trek show (except Discovery which isn’t really an ensemble) has always operated like this. They have large ensembles so not every character gets to shine. Instead, episodes generally focus on 2-4 characters with the rest getting little more than a cameo (if they appear at all). Over the course of the…
