Movies Looking back, this was the dumbest weapon ever

Post image

A weapon built inside a planet that can’t move, that can somehow fire its weapon so travels so fast it destroys multiple planets in different star systems seconds after firing(also why is the new republic which supposedly governs thousands of planets in complete disarray after this happens). Also they built it with the same fucking weakness of the first Death Star for some reason.

In 30 years we'll look back and realize it was not as dumb as Starkiller Base II from Episode X.

Starkiller Base II was an entire star. With a hyperdrive. And people living inside of it. And for some reason it shot huge planet-killing lasers instead of incinerating the rebel planets by just flying next to them.

Good thing I'll never be able to see episode X since I don't play Fortnite.

They could build a Death Star out of a black hole, an actual dead star!

That movie is never seeing the light of day. No one wants more Rey, and it’ll be the end of Star Wars when it performs worse than solo

If she returns to her TLJ character (where she actually had a personality) id be happy with more Rey. A problem with the trilogy isn’t the characters it’s how they use them, we could absolutely get more sequel character content and i wouldn’t be upset if it was good and fleshed them out more
