Some smart-aleck friend of mine asked, "Well if there's no fire in space, HOW DID THE DEATH STAR EXPLODE?" I gave him a quick lesson about nuclear energy and how it has nothing to do with fire. His reaction: "Huh?" This isn't a Star Wars problem. It's a "flunking chemistry and physics classes in high school" problem.

[@samwallaceart288]

Ships would explode in fireballs but they would probably look less like a conventional Hollywood explosion and be more like a dissipating energy orb. The way Death Star II explodes, the hand-drawn orb and ring of energy with sparkles and debris in all directions, is actually the most space accurate of the explosions we see. Obviously the actual movie-ism here is we can hear the explosions. But functionally insofar as it affects the characters and casuality, the point is ships explode when damaged, so it's a different league from a lot of the sequel stuff

If there's one thing that's definite about Star Wars, it's that it's a story about Good vs. Evil, the Light Side vs the Dark Side. In Star Wars, there is no room for "moral grays," which is why you couldn't pay me to watch this tripe anymore.

[@ninatomamon5630]

People are obsessed with gray morality and relativism that have warped the concepts of good and evil. that they no longer know how to distinguish.

[@ferrm1992]

That "forbidden technique" is a silly one XD Works in a world where you're aiming at your opponent's weapon for some reason, but logic would dictate that in a duel, be it steel or lightsaber, you are aiming for your OPPONENT.

[@aurorauplinks]

Star Wars the Acolyte (in a world that didnt hate starwars, or men, or George Lucas(why would someone hate him?)) It takes place several centuries before the battle of Yavin. The Jedi Council has become concerned with a breakaway faction of Jedi, who were human-centric though possessing a few aliens they felt had some value, and highly focused on policing the actions of others. Rather than start a terrible conflict or purge them, Master Yoda has suggested giving them time and space to mature. This group of young and impatient Jedi have been cutting a swath through the Republic for nearly 20 years before their actions begin to truly come back to haunt them. One of their newly gained apprentices they took by force from a world full of Dark Side users, has slowly started to show signs of being out of control even for them. Worst, mysterious deaths follow the Jedi in their wake, not of dead Jedi, but of people they have interviewed or helped. Deeply concerned Master Yoda sends several Jedi Knights, newly risen, to investigate the deaths and observe the faction. A Jedi Master has been secretly sent unbeknownst to everyone to investigate the world of Dark side users unrelated to the events. To try to make contact with the darkside users and see if it would be possible to get them to come under the Jedi's influence and protection(to join the lightside usage instead.) Over the story we slowly have it revealed their wasn't just one Jedi who was forcibly pulled from their families by this young impertinent Jedi faction, and the one from the dark side world, had siblings. who are very upset and pursuing in their wake, finally strong enough. training for years to be able to take back their sibling by force. The Force. The ensuing conflict may very well tear apart the republic. Leaving a sense of disturbance about just what the Jedi are, and causing many of them to risk being tainted and fall to the dark side. Will a secret Jedi-DarkJedi civil war break out? only the passing seasons will tell.

The Jedi were empowered to pick up and train kids that were force users because untrained they were more likely to use their power for petty personal reasons and thus fall to the dark side.

RLM have gone into the decline of movie quality a LOT. It's just in random snippets over the course of the last decade, and not in any concise form.
