@mutantsoldier2 - whats even worse is that Wilding always posts these kind of articles two days after other sites post the same info and then he acts like he did the work...

@JoshWilding I read an article today that confirmed it is a reference to Hela, not her father, which is pretty cool.

C-3PO and R2's Cameo were totally missed by Girlfriend.

"Did you see C-3PO and R2?"
"Who?"

She knows who they are but that cameo was like BOOM! OVER!

Was Daniel Craig actually in Star Wars? Or did he do a stormtrooper's voice while in his pajamas and eating a bowl of cereal?

I think it was a bit of a misstep on the part of Disney to make the Death Star this complicated machine that the rebels needed to get the plans in order to destroy it but when it came to Star Killer Base it took ten minutes to figure out how to destroy it.

@Forthas - I like Force Awakens. But the Starkiller Base is something I wish they hadnt done. It just seems too SCiFY for star wars; a hollowed out planet which consumes suns.

If they had went with another Death Star (sure it would have been obvious and boring from a story perspective) but at least it would have fit well into the contunity of the universe. The death star needed the unique properties of the kyber crystals (which are rare+ are connected to the force).

Additonally, it seems much more practical to construct a Death Star over have to hollow out an entire planet then fill it with machinary.

@StormXmen123 - I agree...but I understand why they did it. Another Death Star would have been too obvious so why not do it but try to jazz it up just a bit. They were trying to present a machine that was bigger and more powerful...but I think even in the movie they kind of acknowledge that it was essentially an over sized version of the same weapon.

One of the things I am starting to fear for the future of the franchise is retreading old ideas. I do agree the physics of Star Killer Base was kind of stupid. Once they drain the sun then what? Could the base move to another one. Yeah...it was really getting into far out nonsensical stuff...

@Forthas - Pablo Hidalgo confirmed it moves, but all they needed was a single line of dialogue like "set course for somewhere" and plot hole gone. Lazy writing.

@StormXmen123 - Comparing the practicality of the Death Star and Starkiller base isn't really a fair comparison at all. The Death Star was only capable of causing a fraction of the damage as Starkiller. So yeah, creating Starkiller would have been way harder, taken longer, and used more resources, but it isn't the same thing.

You can only really compare whats practical when comparing two things that do the same thing. The Death Star could blow up a planet. Starkiller could destroy an entire star system. So yeah, it might actually be worth all the extra effort to create it.

@CorndogBurglar - Practicality aside. How did the First Order develop the Star Killer Base. I agree its more powerful than the Death Star. However it took the republic/Empire years to develop a functioning Death Star (and that is with the entire resources of the Empire + Republic).

The First Order has only a fraction of the resources of the Empire. Thus logically, we must assume the Starkiller base is easier to construct from a mechanical/ engineering perspective. Why then wouldnt the Empire then chose to build a more powerful weapon (which is easier to construct) over the Death Star.

I don't mind the C3PO and R2 cameo.

My problem is they should have cameod on the tantave at the end. You could have had rebels with the plans run by them and C3PO say "oh goodness"

The problem is how do they get onto the Tantaive IV now. They are on the Yavin IV and go directly to SCarif. Then they must have boarded in Yavin IV.

But that means Leia was on Yavin. So why wasnt she in any of the meetings about the DS

@StormXmen123 - I don't think C3P0 knew about the plans. When he was getting into escape pod he was asking R2D2 what mission he was talking about.
StormXmen123
StormXmen123 - 12/21/2016, 8:58 AM
@Forthas - He doesnt have to know, the rebel would just run past.

You actually bring up a good point. How does he not know of the plans. Surely he would have found out why they were at scarif.
Forthas
Forthas - 12/21/2016, 9:09 AM
@StormXmen123 - That IS a good point...or else why is C3PO even there? Plus he is always with R2D2. That is rather interesting. Maybe he can't keep a secret?????

It's Hera, not "Hela", goddamit, if you want to do clickbait at least get the spelling right.
