[QUOTE="M_Natas, post: 9169577, member: 7025918"] You are argumenting unfairly here. Verisimilitude means, that in order to accept the unrealistic parts, we need a grounding in realistic parts or the Suspension of Disbelief is destroyed. In Star Wars 2 they show how they get the clone troopers, they show an android building fabric and have fights in there. Unless they matter to the story you don't need to go into great detail. But the details that are there need to make sense. Like in Star Wars 1 to 3 clone troopers and android armies matter a lot, so they show how they get both. You don't need to show how they build ships that they fight with in episode 1 to 9 - but when the side that lost the war is able to build a fleet in secret that is stronger than the combined might of the empire in episode 9 - on one single planet without outside support, that just breaks the suspension of disbelief at least for me and if you look at the reviews and fan reaction for a lot of other people, too. Like, Star Wars doesn't need to be Honor Harrington, but I think that level of consistency and world building would have saved episodes 7 to 9. [/QUOTE]
