[QUOTE="Clarkspie&chips, post: 441370, member: 5687"] I don't buy the whole "they're kids movies so don't read too much into them" argument. Kids are smart and there are plenty of films made for them that don't take liberties like that. On the whole the original trilogy is pretty coherent and allows you to believe in the story, which is important with so many fantastical elements. It's also important as it puts our hero's in real peril, getting the plans to the rebellion is such a big deal that everything is hanging on luke making that shot. For me, this is now even more poignant after watching rogue one. TFA misses this aspect of star wars in the same way the prequels did. Yes the movies are supposed to be fun but don't treat your audience like babies. Rouge one has its faults like the aforementioned character development, but it did get this aspect right. [/QUOTE]
