I also saw the movie tonight. The scene near the end with Darth Maul threw me for a loop. Horrible misstep making a reveal like that in the last 15 minutes of the movie. I can't believe that made the final cut.
Also worth mentioning, the infamous Kessel run. I simply can't believe that the "parsec" thing was retconned so that "parsec" is an actual legitimate measurement of time in the world of SW, and then actually used as a major plot detail in this film.
Except its the most legit retcon they couldve possibly come up with. Parsec as a unit of time makes no sense whatsoever in any universe.
Han literally took a dangerous shortcut to make the trip shorter. It's impressive because no one thought it was possible, not necessarily because of the speed of the ship. How is that not a measure of distance?
Sorry, i misread your post the first time. Basically what i meant is that with the new retcon, parsec is actually depicted as a measure of distance which it is; they took various shortcuts which required a fast ship to do otherwise they woulve smashed into things or get sucked, etc. Parsec as a unit of time didnt and doesnt make any sense and im only glad they fixed it.
