He then jumps out of hyperspace inside a planet's atmosphere to both Chewbacca and Finn's horror. Luke blind-fires the torpedoes that kill the first Death Star. A single out of control A-Wing takes out a Super Star Destroyer. Primitive teddy bears take out stormtroopers and walkers with stone age weaponry. And no one is suggesting these are the basis for radical changes to how the entire universe should function. Or ... in other words, a wizard frickin' did it, but why is this the bridge too far? The Force was with Holdo and she did something extraordinary. And why I let it go, is that that one shot of silence and ships breaking caused by the heroic desperation of Admiral Holdo is one of the top most beautiful sequences in the entire franchise, up with Luke staring into the twin suns in ANH. It was breathtaking.There are many things in the Star Wars franchise that do not hold up to any scrutiny. From Han talking parsecs to the sentience and status of Droids, to the nature of the Force itself.</blockquote>
