Theres a million things in Star Wars like this. You've just got to swallow it.
Its funny how people can ignore dumb stuff like this in the OT and yet jump all over much more minor things in the PT, so i'm glad you brought it up.
I would love it if Chefelf would come up with 100 reasons to hate.... lists for the OT. God, using the criteria he set down in his PT lists, I could probably come up with 500 reasons to 'hate' ANH.
- Anakin inconsistency in all PT ("What have I done" to "I'll do anything you ask" in 2 seconds)
- Padme Dying for no reason other then a "broken heart" after deliviring babies
- C3PO being built by Anakin
- Jar Jar
- Yoda's "Forced" exile for no apparent reason
- Clone troppers easily beating Jedi's except if a Jedi needs to be alive in the next movies
- Palpitine against 4 jedi Masters kills 3 of them in less then 2 seconds
- R2 "powers" where was the ability to jump and fly in the OT? oh I see, no CGI back then.
- Midclorians
- The Chosen One Profecy, which serve nothing to the story and still there are teories of what does it mean
- Anakin "was a good Friend" , where is this in the new movies?
This are not nitpicks! this are insults to a once respected story.
no wind in the balcony, use of Bobba Fett father as a clone and stuff like that are nitpicks and exist in every single movie.
Happy Christmas!
