Also posting this because it still baffles me how some can see Rey and Finn escaping as being a problem when there were more ships in orbit during the Battle of Hoth that caused Luke no trouble and that’s fine. I really need someone to explain this to me.
Well, I could be wrong here, but the Rebels had multiple ships and were armed, while Finn and Rey were stuck in an old junker that they didn’t even know could run or not.
Also, in general, Star Wars seems to forget that space is in 3D, so like, the Imperial fleet is only facing one side of the planet in that pic…why don’t they just take off from the other side and jump from there?
I didn’t mention anything about the Rebels; I was talking about Luke leaving the planet with contemptuous ease even though there were multiple ships in orbit. At least in TFA’s case it was only one Star Destroyer.

The Empire didn’t have an Interdictor cruiser.
Admittedly I’m lost right now…
Also, shame on you for criticizing The Empire Strikes Back 😉
It’s my favorite film but it’s no where near perfect.
