making the Death Star flaw something intentional makes Luke destroying it in SW less meaningful.
Out of interest… how?
Luke using the force to hit an almost impossible target means that the force is indeed more powerful than the “technological terror” of the Death Star. It’s the final word on the “materialism vs the force” discussion the movie presents to the viewer in multiple scenes (Obi Wan and Solo inside the Falcon, Vader and the imperial, Obi Wan becoming more powerful after dying).
Of course, Rogue One doesn’t ruin all that, but it does make it less meaningful and bothers me a lot.
I agree with your view on Han, he seems to exist in scenes, and outside of one or two scenes he is like a whole other character. I think he should have sacrificed himself to save the Rebels in the movie, i love his portrayal in TFA & how his death came about.
Yes, that would’ve been better.
