    TLJ is why you need fans who obsess over canon and care about the details. A logically consistent world is the root of any successful franchise, and the minute the "nothing matters" brain worm infects the production the decline begins.

      a truly logically consistent world is impossible. Something approaching it is only possible from the mind of a single author (or a team of the same authors), and even then is only really feasible per single story (ie. the hobbit/lotr). The entire concept of a 'franchise' is an infantile made-up idea by the israelites of hollywood. It provides literally no benefit to you the audience, it would be far far better to have multiple stories set in different canonical universes.
      Star Wars isn't real dummy.

    Why didn't they build hyperspace missiles?

    Because when you go to hyperspace you enter into that "blue light tunnel". This is some kind of subspace, though it's not specifically explained. The reason for this is so that a ship couldn't hit a floating coin in space while going fast and being destroyed.
    TLJ and that Holdo maneuver made no sense.

      Being able to hyperspace in and out of an atmosphere is also nonsensical, and makes me wonder how the imperial blockade in orbit of Tatooine or Hoth was meant to work. Why didn't the rebel transports just jump away?

      The prequels were a great story told poorly, so they were able to be rehabbed by other content. The sequels are low quality all around, and it'll be impossible to fix them.

        You shouldn't be able to jump in atmosphere as there should be too much gravity affecting you. Hyperspace and it's relation to gravity is basically a shitter version of much better SF mechanics.

    The shit writing that pervade didn't really become a thing for Star Wars until disney took over. And one would never think shit writing would be a thing for Star Wars when the fans had writers like Drew Karpyshyn keeping the lore fresh and alive, a modern day Timothy Zahn. Disney takes writers work like the aforementioned, and bastardize it completely, all the while saying EU material never existed.

    Everyone knows that guys are dumb because they can only think with their naughty parts. This must be true for squid-guys too.

    It takes a woman to be smart and capable and b***hy and totally uninteresting enough to pull a Mary Sue Maneuver out of her rectum.

    (Seriously, "Mary Sue" is pretty much defined as being a character who bends the rules of the entire fricking universe to be the bestest evar. Why is Rian Johnson a total shit-head? One of the many reasons is because he decided that the best way to fix one Mary Sue was to introduce yet another.)

    The legitimate reason in the Sequel Lore is that Admiral Holdo, all things shown in the movie aside, was an actually incredible pilot and had great knowledge of space combat (I mean she made Admiral rank) and the maneuver was indeed a nearly impossible one but she could pull it off.
    Could any really great pilot pull it off? Maybe. Would any other the other characters who could have pulled it off thought of the suicidal maneuver? Ehhh. Why not have a robotic pilot do it/have hyperspace missiles? Given that the majority of robot pilots are still able to be beaten by humanoid pilots, that it would take a very sophisticated computerized system to pull it off, one that would be inefficient to use repeatedly as a weapon (although this could have been a neat unique superweapon, a rogue AI ship that could hyperspace ram a planet).
    I think that a better route that could have been taken if the sequels had been planned out would have been to have Han do the Holdo maneuver with the Falcon. Both gives Han an end and removes Falcon nostalgia while also immortalizing it further (imagine if it required a ship as "fast" as the Falcon to perform the maneuver).

      Olympic level mental gymnastics, however what you've just said is one of the most insanely idiotic things I have ever read. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this thread is now dumber for having read to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul.

      >one that would be inefficient to use repeatedly as a weapon
      this is where any excuse/damage control one comes up with falls apart
      one ace pilot can literally destroy an entire fleet, a death star, or even a planet. there is literally no handwave one can come up with that would explain why this wouldnt be widespread.
      for instance, the rebellion attack on the second death star was an all-in all-or-nothing suicide run where they brought every damn ship they had including medical frigates and transports, anything with a gun, because the operation was that desperate. you literally cannot come up with an excuse that doesnt open a galaxy-wide plot hole on why they would risk their entire military force, when they could just blow the thing up with one cruiser and a pilot.

        Speaking of the second Death Star attack;
        >call off the attack, the shield is still up
        Why didn't they just hyperspace past the shield?

      Should have been Leia piloting it. The actress has just died, so just edit some scenes and have most of her piloting be shot from behind with a body double. Instead the dumbass director killed off the living Skywalker actor and kept around the dead one, lol. Oh and the explanation for the hyperspace ram could have been that only someone with high force sensitivity could do it, and even then it would be highly risky. Say that most Jedi had never done it because of the massive loss of life it inflicts and that Sith also almost never did it because it kills the pilot.
      Instead of force projecting himself to salty Hoth, Luke should have projected himself onto the bridge to help his sister see her sacrifice through.
      Anyway it doesn't really fix anything. We're.talking about patching a bullet wound in the abdomen when the patient is missing a head. There's no fixing the ST or Star Wars in general.

    Can someone explain me the maneuver? Like specifically it is hyperspace through the ship? I don't get it since I don't really think of hs as just moving really fast, I thought it's some other trick. Anyway just ramming normally would also work or if you could do a short jump right on to the ship and ram to prevent escape.
    Tons of short jump madness would be cool with the fleets repositioning themselves non stop.

      i think its about opening a hyperspace tunnel(lane?) on/inside an object(spaceship)
      so you have to be exactly the right distance away from the object and be going at the right speed and be opening the hyperspace tunnel/lane at just the right time and having the exact right hyperspace drive for it to work

        Yeah but it doesn't make sense because the jumping ship moves into the hyperspace reality so it isn't there to collide with physical reality. They blink in and out of physical existence. They also say you can collide with physical shadows in hyperspace which is bad for the jumping ship but they don't say what happens to the shadow or its physical counterpart.

    Because hyperspace is a state where a material stops moving by conventional means and can no longer interact with conventional energy or matter. The only force significant enough to affect something that is in hyper space is gravity - which draws the object in hyperspace back into conventional space. The only way to hit something from hyper space would be to materialise onto it and presumably, given the universality of gravity, the act of materializing either displaces the hyper active object or the conventional object as both exert force on each other during the transition.
