so much going on, and now if you look out the cockpit windows it makes more sense ...
Visual continuity goes a long way towards telling a believable story. Even in the ESB days (long before they started phoning things in for ROTJ) you can see how things were just sloppily thrown together......the battle of Hoth, while iconic, is a great example of continuity being more or less ignored in the editing process.
