If the first death star took 20 years to build, how the fuck did they build a much bigger one in only three?
>>63608655
DUDE ITS A SEQUEL EVERYTHING'S BIGGER LMAO
>>63608655
How ever said they weren't building both simultaneously?
>>63608655
maybe its mostly empty space inside. ´Maybe there's a smaller death star inside.
They had the experience/blueprints/whatever.
>>63608655
It's a fucking Galactic Empire with unlimited funding. You really truly believe the Emperor would be stupid enough to only keep one nuke in his arsenal? No, you build two, or several.
Idiots, I swear.
>>63608655
Maybe they shouldn't've named it the Death Star twice. A more unassuming name would have probably played better.
>>63608655
they found a better contractor.
The Emperor was super pissed and made everybody work overtime
>>63608655
Don't you remember? They had to double their efforts.
What's the reference for the actual size of the second death star?
Maybe we can say it's the same size as the first at that will work continuity wise in ROTJ if there aren't internal film references for size.
>>63608655
Why the fuck did they make it like a hundred times bigger
Why didn't they build lots of smaller deathstars instead of one big one if the small one was enough to destroy a planet?
>>63608891
Try saying his line as fast as he said it
Protip :you can't
>>63608655
is that the case? I always assumed they were the same size, first death star looked fucking huge already
>>63608891
We shall double our digits.
>>63608655
Nigga, the Deathstar 6S will be even bigger.
Little Boy took 6 years to build, how did they make Fat Man in 3 days?
>>63608655
The first civilization took millions of years to build, now we can make them in a few years. It's about experience.
>>63610280
I find your lack of dubs disturbing.
did the writers literally call it Death star 2
>>63608655
Because Return of the Jedi. More stupid than you realize.
>>63608655
Lucas explained in the revenge of the sith commentary was cause they just became the empire and were still doing alot, like conquering all the planets in the galaxy, as well as budget issues
>>63610839
Second Death Star, or just plain Death Star were the two main ways to mention it. Death Star 2 is just the first name rearranged.
>>63608655
That size chart is not accurate.
Deathstar 1: 120km.
Deathstar 2: 160km.
And most probably both were under construction at the same time.
>>63610591
>not getting the dEathstar 6S plus
>>63608655
No union shit-tier system workers
Empire are the Saudis
2nd death star wasn't that big. It was only twice the size of the first
>Starkiller Base
>Bigger than Luna, our moon.
Checkmate
>>63608678
I reality this is the true answer
>>63608823
>its a hurr its so obvious ima talk down to everyone response
does it make you feel like a big man to answer such petty facetious questions with such obliviousness and bile you gigantic insufferable faggot?
I only realized last year it wasn't a repaired and rebuilt version of the first one.
>>63608784
>They had the [blueprints]
That can't be it, those were stolen by the rebels. The Empire had a really shoddy IT department and didn't keep any backups.
>>63611775
That would have been more interesting.
>>63608655
where does your scale come from, EU faggot?
I pretty much assumed the deathstars were the same size nothing in the movie says otherwise

Canonically (not sure if new EU or old EU), Palpatine put in the order to build a second Death Star literally the minute Luke was in the trench.
It also states that the first Death Star was plagued with issues and the second was built using self-replicating droids and new technology developed over the previous 20 years.
>>63613520
Pretty sure that's all old EU.
>>63610238
It was, but the second was indeed larger still.
>>63608655
It's been variously suggested that the "second" Death Star was actually the original and the "first" a smaller, easier to build model, or that what was seen in RotS was merely the Prototype model, which was never completed beyond the basic framework and hidden in the Maw near Kessel.
it was still incomplete for the most part
>>63613134
how?
It wasn't finished shit for brains
>>63610921
Why does Lucas have to be such an autist and explain shit like this?
>>63611152
There was also a prototype that was basically just the superlaser, the reactor, and the circular trench. A Jedi led it into a black hole at the Maw.
>>63615525
(not canon)
