Ya who cares how an elite assassin with mystical abilities kills an ancient power capable of raising the dead etc. I mean watching that unfold in any detail would be boooooring as ****.
No way could you for example devote a whole film or series just to that premise alone.
Just spare us and show us the assassin teleporting out of nowhere (via a jump that comes from the ground btw). In fact lets follow this line of reasoning to its conclusion and conclude that even the leap is boring needless exegesis, all we needed to see was the stab.
I would preferred the battle of Yavin if they skipped the whole Luke gets into his ship, flies through the magnetic field, dog fights above the death star, shoots some gun towers, red one saying dont cover me get set up for your attack run, flying down a trench etc if they had just showed the deathstar ominously moving towards Yavin then cut to your all clear kid, close up of Luke pulling the trigger, death star explodes.
Its just a si fi film after all.
Better yet would be if this was after the attack of the death star was in fact the culmination of 8 films worth of plot building.
Actually I dont mind the above at all, but a minor character stabbing a giant, oooh that really gets my goat.
I know you are being flippant, so am I, but **** is so obvious reading this thread how hollywood can get away with releasing the same film 100 times a year.
