It’s just a fun idea that leads to some really cool visuals

Yeah, but it makes no sense. Hyperspace travel doesn’t take one second, and you don’t get dropped in the middle of some exciting action scene.

Here’s the thing you’re missing: I truly could not give less of a shit about that.

Okay, you can like big dumb action setpieces like that, but for me Star Wars is more about quality storytelling than cool action. I’m not trying to be disrespectful, but I think we should expect better from the franchise.

Yeah but for me the logic of in-universe tech has very little to do with what I consider “good storytelling.”

I understand what you mean, the Falcon moves at the speed of plot, but when it’s something as blatantly obvious as the lightspeed skipping scene, it feels like JJ thinks his audience are idiots.
