With Storm troopers being such poor shots you need a death star it takes accuracy out of the equation! You guys do realize this is fiction, right? I mean someone wrote this and it is not real. I just think why rehash a topic that had been done or have the death star throughout all the films. Lets face it The Star Wars (pre-ANH) was not going to necessarily be 6-9 films on the screen. So blowing the death Star up gave some sense of finality to me that Star Wars could stand alone as its own film. ROTJ just lacks some creative writing for the topic of another death star to me. Though I love the Vader, Luke, Emperor stuff.
