My point is simply for comparison. I do not think anything is going to be changed in EMPIRE:R regarding the end with the Executor, as that argument was made many moons ago with Ady stating that nothing needed to be changed.

But this thread isn't for ESB:R. I stayed on topic and never brought up ESB:R. I'm just saying what could be changed in ANH:R, just as the topic of the thread suggests.

I'm not talking about EMPIRE:R. I am making a reference that is similar in nature: the Falcon is out of range of the TIE even though it is pretty close (and in JEDI the Falcon is shooting TIEs out of the sky pretty quickly at roughly the same viewable range) and the Executor is out of range of tractor beam usage even though the Falcon is scratching their paint.

The topic was the far-fetchedness of the TIE being out of range when they could clearly see it and I just made a similar comparison that happens in another SW movie. The bottom line is that silly things happen in STAR WARS and some of it we just have to either live with or re-edit in some way to satisfy our niggles.

I'm just saying, the topic of the thread is what else can be done if one were to add more re-edits to ANH:R, and this is one thing I would change, by making the TIE further away when Han is speaking the line about being almost in range. Thats all I was saying.

I'm only comparing the TIE distance in ANH and ROTJ, not the Star Destroyer distance in ESB, since it isn't clear if the Star Destroyer had a blind spot, or whatever was going on in that scene. At least by comparing the scenes in ANH and ROTJ, it is a direct comparison, since both scenes involve the Falcon and a TIE fighter. I think there is nothing wrong with the Falcon being able to blast TIEs at that distance, so if one were to do ANH:R:R, I think it would only be logical to let that TIE gain a lot of distance before Han decides he wants to blast it.

I'm not trying to argue or anything, but your first reply to my post suggested that I might as well not think about it, since that's just how Star Wars is. But the topic of the thread is what additional changes should/could be made, so I took it as you were telling me to ignore the topic of the thread, hence the defensive replies afterward.
