Since when did movies have to start explaining everything? I don’t get that. Even books don’t. You explain what you need to get across the main points. Why can’t movies make you think? Leave things out and make you wonder? And just why does one force user doing something in one movie mean that no one has ever been able to do that before. that stagnates things. Lucas gave us new force powers in nearly every film. In Episode I, Qui-gon and Obi-wan run super fast. Why can’t they do that in the OT? Yikes, a mistake. Sorry, this is just a bit ridiculous. Any ongoing franchise is a living thing that grows and changes as each new installment comes out. With luck, the new ones enhance the old ones. But this idea that we’ve seen it before so these new films must follow those rules exactly is very funny to me. If you take that back far enough it means that we should have seen everything the force could do in ANH. Because everything since then had changed things. Oh my.
