Why is that scene a sticking point at all though? A Jedi can do all kinds of wacky things, and this falls under ‘knowledge and defence’ last time I checked. Jumping out of a trap or grabbing an object is fine but woah holding your breath and reaching for the nearest airlock is craazy. The only dumb part is that she didn’t pull inside the other bridge officers and seal the hole behind them.

I didn’t like the Leia surviving in space and then floating back to the ship. It’s ridiculous like if a force user could fly. I liked how Luke had to really struggled just to use the force in the OT. I think it’s best if the force is limited in what you can do with it as otherwise it takes the “magic” away. But I do think there should be beginner, intermediate, and master levels of force users.

In Empire, I never did like the fast high force jump that Luke does when Vader to trying to trap him in that pit they used to freeze Han Solo. And then Luke jumps up really super high. I never did like that Luke could do that. But luckily Vader has a really good line of “Impressive, most impressive” and so makes that scene not look so hokey.
