this does bid the question though
Spoiler
If this was always an option, why have we never seen hyperspace kamikaze droids?

Would it just be too cost prohibitive?

I feel like a fighter sized unmanned craft could've easily taken down the Malevolence during the Clone Wars.

So does this actually change the established lore on how hypersapce works in Star Wars? I always thought they travelled to another dimension or something, but now it's just moving REALLY fast?

Hyperspace has always been effectively moving really fast through real space, just hand-waved with "mass shadows" and other bullshit.



Just saw TLJ,  thought it was pretty good.

Spoiler
I got really excited when Finn was about to die, because his character blows.
I think most of the problems come from the director just trashing JJ's stories; every revelation felt jarring and contrived. The fact the Resistance is literally a handful of ships with nothing else is stupid. I don't really have anything unique to say at this point...though it's good to see that the dark side ending of Jedi Academy is now canon. 

Also, ships can just track other ships through hyperspace, which is all sorts of dumb

And "battering ram cannon", "miniature death star tech"... come on.

Only Snoke's ship was able to track ships through hyperspace. It was actually foreshadowed in RO:

I feel like having something with that capability on hand would be fairly useful.

I agree but you'd think they'd use something like that as the bombardment cannons for the dreadnought or smoke's ship instead of being a clunkey ground based thing.
In fact this movie feels like it has nerfed Star Wars' tech quite a bit. Not necessarily a bad thing, but that's how I perceived it.

it's impossibly specific

there's already some buzz that JJ is going to be doing a lot to undo the damage that Rian has done with this film, most of all unkilkibg Luke

what if Rey couldn't see Luke, not because he was cut off from the force, but because he wasn't there at all?

"damage" For gods sake, let the man who peacefully became one with the force become one with the force.

Goes back to what I said about how it should have been a ship mounted cannon on a dreadnought.

Physics in SW have always been stupid. It didn't bother me.

What does bother me is the 7km Dreadnought having a measly 24 point defense cannons.

It's like they wanted it to get destroyed.

tbh I'm pretty triggered that some of  the stuff people are bitching about is what was good.

-Luke's character arc
-NotPalpatine getting the Maul treatment
-Rey being the daughter of nobodies

There are legitimate problems with the movie but those were great. Really concerned by the negative reactions, and what that means for 9.

Yeah but nu-wars seems even more determined to mess with physics. I mean, at least Alderaan's destruction wasn't visible in the sky of every planet across the entire galaxy and energy weapons have always travelled in straight lines.

Honourable mention to the ship that loses power and actually stops going forward lol.

The First Order not scanning on all possible wavelengths for any sign of activity was also a pretty stupid move from them too.

To be fair, that's more so JJ's retardation than NuCanon as a whole. Same thing happened in Trek 2009.
