    And you know what I also never understood? Why Looney Toons don't die when they fall off 1000 meter high cliffs. Or when they get shot with a shotgun and all that happens is Daffy's beak just spins around.

    Or how about how quickly the Death Star was rebuilt after it was blown up there first time? They couldn't have had just droids and stormtroopers working on it so quickly. They must've hired thousands of independent contractors. How come we don't hear about their deaths?

    Or why does Obi Wan just disappear when he's killed by Darth Vader? Instead of having blood and shit all firing out.

    Or how come Stormtroopers can't aim straight and never hit anything?

    Maybe cause it's all fiction and it's silly when we try to make logic out of fictional stuff =D. Can't we just all enjoy the ride like the millions of children who are going to see this? This may be their first Star Wars and if Disney/Marvel's Guardian of the Galaxy was of any indication, the new Star Wars is going to be a fun and entertaining ride for all ages. I'm a Star Wars fan through and through and while nothing will probably ever be able to touch my inner childhood (hehe gross) like the originals still do I can still respect that they're trying. Except Jar Jar...that was just...awful.

    I created Hill 30

    Massive amount of slave labor and used up the majority of the resources the Empire had left

    Obi becomes completely one with the Force, later becoming a Force Ghost as we saw. Also the lack of blood is due to the fact that Lightsabers are pure energy and the heat cauterizes most wounds.

    Or how come Stormtroopers can't aim straight and never hit anything?
    They can only when they are not shooting at a main character of the over all story when the story calls for it. AKA bad writing. If you remember a Stromtrooper gets a pretty good shot to hit Leia in the arm in Return of the Jedi.

    I completely get this Spartan. I just worry that my childhood will be stompped out as it almost was with the Prequels.

    REDD or BLUE Resistance comes through!
