I just started rewatching The Last Jedi and I had to pause it. Because during the opening prank call scene, Poe says something that I can’t believe hasn’t been nitpicked yet. “Hux… With an H?” Is anyone else bugged by that kind of thing? Star Wars has its own language but now Poe straight up addresses English letters? I feel like a massive geek but I can’t be alone here, can I? Is something like this a line you’re willing to remove, Hal?

After rewatching the film from the digital release and reading the novelization (which I recommend) Poe actually asks for “General Hugs”; that’s why Poe doesn’t respond to Hux. Basic in Star Wars does resemble our actual alphabet so the “…with an H” actually does work.
