You know what's sad? At this point this is so comment that my response is practically already written.

The officials that signed off on the raid should be sued and held accountable.

The body cam footage of the shooting should be visited to see if they identified themselves and gave orders. If they did they should be off the hook(but not the officials who ordered it). If there is no body cam they should be held accountable by default because at this point every department should have them in some form.

It's as simple as that. Police should only be responsible for conducting the raid properly, not ensuring its necessary. Higher uos should be responsible for making sure raids are appropriate.

It hasn't been seen in generations, and there is some sort of power to it, and it allowed the shenanigans between with Reylo.

As for lightspeed skipping, I got the sense that it was a progression in hyperdrive tech since we see some folks make jumps within a gravity well in 7 and 8.

Could be. I don't think we see an interdictor any later than rebels, which is the main source of the issue.

Doesn't solve the hyper drives though, the main reason fighters don't have them is they're meant to be short range and disposable.

Certain kinds did. Usually ones being used by higher ranking troops or dignitaries had shielding and hyperdrives built in


Far as I know, the only fighters they have with hyperdrives are experimental or limited production ones, like Vader's fighter.

As in, things that wouldn't work according to previously established things in lore?

First example I noticed in TROS was tie fighters don't have hyperdrives.....

Also, it's well established in both old and new canon that you can't my lightspeed jumps while in a gravity well, so that gets both TFS and TROS.

Again, explained in the movie. Rey and Ben have a unique bond in the Force that greatly strengthens their connection. Leia was also 53 years old and specifically said to be using the last of her energy to reach out.

Try paying attention, I know it's hard.

Handwaving is not an explanation. They're legitimately stupid things. Could they pass physical items in TLJ or is that another thing this movie pulled out of its ass/got completely wrong?

When did this happen?

i mean in TLJ with rain, sure. But neither one of them were doing it. Its also unclear if whats happening to them uses their Force at all.

Every time Rey and Kylo Ren did this they were nearby. She was on his ship that was hovering over a city. At the end they were even closer.

Kylo literally pulled off her necklace and used it to discover what planet she was on.

Sounds like a promise ring rather than a proposal.

Not quite. Proposal to me means you're directly working towards that end, even if it might still take a bit to get there. It doesn't mean you have to set a date now, but you start looking, you start saving. Wedding becomes a real goal rather than just a promise.

Life limitations, not the right time.

Lack of career, still pursuing degrees, lack of $$$, etc.

But I will admit, after 10 years, you lose that spark which is what I meant by "that feeling".

Literally none of that means you can't make the commitment. Proposal isn't saying you're ready to settle down or even get married right away, just that you're making that commitment.

I think Doom is the Loki for this new phase. Hell be in at least one Avengers movie but be a thorn mostly in like the F4s side.

I think Galactus or Kang will be the next big bad for this phase tbh.

I honestly hope not. I don't want Doom to be pigeonholed into the Loki role, I hope he remains a lasting antagonist.

As someone else posted, it becomes clearer if you scale it up to a much larger number of doors.

That still doesn't fix my problem. Imagine you aren't choosing to switch, but instead he just asks you to pick a door again. You're choosing between two doors, but only one has a 50% chance of being right. I get the logic and math behind it but it fucks with my head so much lol

It's explained during a conversation /fight between the two. They don't notice Chewey being arrested because they're watching Rei. She wasn't sensing Chewey because she had just lost control of her power and was under extreme emotional stress.

So just convenient plot contrivances. Got it.

Do they explain why none of the stormtroopers went up to the ship that was plainly visible and starting its engines? Do they explain how nobody noticed the other transports and so instantly assumed the one was what held it? Do they explain how Rey couldn't sense chewie aboard that transport, despite just a few minutes later sensing him on a different ship from a further distance?
