You take for instance the Krayat dragon call. That’s one of the sand people not a Krayat Dragon, Obi-wan is not making that sound… It is absurd to think so. it’s probably just missing the close up of a tuskan raider reacting to the old man approaching.

What are you even going on about. Of course that was Obi-wan that made the howl. Are you insinuating that Tusken Raiders are so dumb they spook themselves?

But then Darth Vader sending the distress signal and all aboard were killed. Get’s contradicted by that.

No, the ruse with the distress signal was for the benefit of the senate:

Send a distress signal and then inform the senate that all aboard were killed!

The senate itself was dissolved by the Emperor not long afterward. So it’s quite possible the destruction of the Tantive was never reported.

Boyhood’s acclaim only represents the death of American cinema…film criticism has really nosedived where any cheap gimmick gets you instant acclaim, regardless of actual quality.

You might have said more but I stopped reading at this point.

To be fair, there’s some truth to that, but I didn’t notice until Ghostbusters (2016) almost reached 80% fresh on Rotten Tomatoes. Clearly something has gone wrong.
