People hated Empire when it came out too. Then Ewoks showed up and they were all “you know what, Empire rocked”. Personally I really liked this one, I like how it broke away from a lot of SW bad habits. It’s about time we got some non-Skywalkers saving the damn galaxy.
I called empire, “star wars for grownups”. The characters were not so two dimensional. Sounds like that is happening even more with this one.
Ah yes. You probably loved the part about ‘slipping away in unarmored and unshielded transport ships’...
Cause the Empire is not going to be looking for any ships leaving the Cruiser...
Cause...
Well cause...
Well just cause...
They are the Empire after all.
If they want to not monitor the ship they are chasing that is in increasingly dire straights for desperate escapees, that is their business.
So Luke comes to the ‘rescue’.
Only he doesn’t bother to remove the rocks in the back of the cave so they can escape while he ‘delays’ ?!?
And Lea is now so feeble she can’t remove the rocks ?!?
And don’t they have one good dozer in this ‘rebel base’ ?
Or even some explosives ?!?
Sheesh.
