The contention is dialogue in a Star Wars movie shouldn’t feel dated by earth standards. It took place in a galaxy far far away.
I understand that concept I just don’t understand how this dialogue is especially contemporary.
Probably because you’re young and don’t remember a time before it was normal to tell someone you were willing to hold.
Are we supposed to pretend that Star Wars doesn’t exist in a universe with technology similar to that of phones? Is it really so out of place that the concept of “holding” feels too modern? Weird complaint to me honestly.
