>Death Star shoots a laser beam to destroy other star systems
>The laser beam does not take thousands of year to reach its target
Why, JJ?
>>63750371
It's faster than the speed of light
>>63750371
because nobody cares about astrophysics in a children's film you sperg
>>63750394
then it should be invisible
BUT ITS VISIBLE
Don't they actually say the beams travel at hyper speed or something?
>yet another fucking death star
Somebody kill me
End this, please
>>63750461
I don't think they did.
>A SUPERNOVA THREATENED TO DESTROY THE GALAXY
>>63750442
they put food colouring in it
>>63750394
Isn't it light though?

how was Spock able to see the destruction of vulcan when he was on another planet in another system?
>>63750479
This
>>63750371
of course he made another death star. who the fuck keeps giving him these franchises.
He turns out one shitty generic movie, that is nothing but lazy references and generic action filler all over the fucking place.
i don't even think i am gonna watch this, it is just going to be every JJ movie ever but set in the star wars universe.

Cause J.J is an hack
>>63750371
Is it still called a Death Star?
>>63750805
If he's that close it must be the same system.
>>63751195
it's called Darth star
>>63751195
Wars Killer.
>>63751210
so can you visually see mars from earth during day?
>>63750935
You act like he wrote the script, he didn't.
>>63751284
You actually could if it exploded like that.
>>63750572
>>63750371
Star Wars is science fantasy, always has been.
It travels faster than light, "How?" isn't important
>>63751284
You can see Venus
>>63751313
but it didn't explode, it was sucked up by a black hole in its centre
>>63751390
It was still reflecting light prior. Also, like that anon said, if he could see it, then he's hella close.
So this thing drained the sun to shoot, so what happens after it's drained, you just carve out another planet? Where does a broken empire get all this money?
In fact, why couldn't they expand more on the republic/empire thing some more? Like, how much does the empire control, why does the republic have a resistance, or is the resistance a separate faction? I left the movies with more questions than answers
>>63750507
They do during the rebel briefing/exposition
>>63751476
>why does the republic have a resistance
Didn't even see the movie but that bugs me as well since I read about it
>>63751476
because they didn't want to go full prequel and start throwing in politics and other bullshit no one cares about other than faggots
star wars is a pulpy space adventure
>>63751284
>so can you visually see mars from earth during day?
Actually, if the conditions are just right, yes, Mars can be visible to the naked eye during daylight. Not as likely as Venus is to be seen, but it is not impossible.

fixed

>>63751678
as a glowing point, not as an actual planet
>>63751534
The Republic is demilitarized and the Resistance has to be secretly funded. Also, Palpatine's First Order was: Maintain the Empire, hence the name.
>>63751879
God that sounds bad.
>>63750509
BRAVO JJ YOU FUCKING HACK
>>63751990
Does it? Mon Motha took the new republic into a peaceful direction after the dismantling of the "imperial remnants". The First Order is operating in the outer rim and has little influence in the core worlds, so the senators aren't in a rush to start a war.
I thought it would just be plasma and charged subatomic particles , basically a concentrated coronal mass ejection. That would never travel faster than fraction of c
>>63750371
when did the movie suggest it hits the target in minutes? there are cuts and you see the laser move at a slower speed than light.
Even plot filler in this movie retard tier garbage...big surprise.
>>63750479
I'll kill you if you promise to kill me first.
>>63752056
So their answer is to disarm to the point where defense has to be secretly funded? That makes no sense.
>>63750572
>>63751834
I'm sorry, what?
It's not a planet if it's far away?
>>63750805
it was clearly a moon of that planet
>>63750572
That's hysterical. Goddammit now I want a sci-fi movie where a scientist uses that explanation.
>>63752252
Well, the Republic had no army before the Clone Wars, remember? Systems have their own military but in general the republic does not, unless it's a time of great crisis. The First Order is kinda seen as small potatoes and not something worth the trouble. Until they discover the secret weapon.
>>63750461
>>63750507
Yes they did, the even say there was no way for them to describe da weaponz
>>63750371
holy fuck the empire actually made another death star? Was the Falcon attacking the Death Star the main turning point in this one too? If two of your super weapons are destroyed by a tiny old light freighter you should probably just stop and spend the resources on Star Destroyers.
At least the prequels weren't this much of a shameless rehash.
>>63752706
Err the Empire has thousands of years of galactic history to learn from. And that history as said that the galaxy is simply too large to hold together by diplomacy alone. So they continually work on a superweapon, hoping to use that to keep the galaxy in-line. If they can get one off the ground, they will be unstoppable.
>>63752788
>err
>>63750572
Audibly keked, that was funny as hell
>>63752851
I don't post on Reddit sir. But thank you for proving that I won the argument.
>>63752706
yes, Poe Dameron shoots an exhaust port in the new Death Star and it blows up. it doesn't take as long but its a direct copy.
>>63750371
>being this autistic
Why don't you complain about the fact that you can hear the sound ships make when they're in space?
>>63752851
>le reddit fallacy
club sandwich for dinner. now im enjoying a cold can
then off to the theat to enjoy
Why are people bothered about there being another death star?
This is a movie for children.
>>63750572
hey reddit
