“We’ve almost got some of their telecommunications cracked; the front end even runs on a laptop!” The Mac that sunk a thousand ships could have been merely clunky product placement, not a bafflingly stupid tech-on-film moment.

“Senator Amidala is in a coma. Even if she recovers, she will never be the same and may not live long.” But no… George had to have his god-damned funeral scene, even if it demanded Simone Biles levels of mental gymnastics to save Carrie Fisher’s most emotionally resonant moment from ROTJ, as well as one of the more intriguing OT lore dumps.

Bonus points if a scene was scripted or filmed and got cut.

    Yes, that’s basically what I said. I know there is no unabridged version of the book, because I’m not a dunce. That was the joke, but you’re so worried about being right and getting the last word you missed it.

    I’ve seen the movie damn near a thousand times. I’ve read the book (didn’t I already make this clear). We’re both fans.

    It’s not a plot hole. It’s a single stepped on line that does not matter to the plot and major motivations of the characters.
