    The only thing annoying is that people think the moron is trolling. He is genuinely this much of an idiot.

    I personally doubt that. But either way, a good bit of the derailing occurs as a result of people furiously responding to what he says. Including you.

    So people need to come to some sort of accord, to either use the ignore function, or just not respond (and not respond to the people responding to him). Or just chill out and laugh at it or something. Or talk about something else, etc.

    Literally the opposite of everything you have just said, right down to citing iron man 3 as the worst iron man.

    The films are aimed at children. They don't know or care about Newton's laws, nor should they. They want to be taken to a galaxy far, far away and watch people clobbering each other with laser swords.

    Ep 7 is not strictly aimed at children, or at least it's not strictly aimed at today's children. Its a happy cross-generational mush that talks to yesterday's kids who grew up with the 80s films too.

    I think vizbot is in need of an upgrade to einsteinian physics. E=mc^2 and all that - mass is energy, thus energy is mass. It's even debatable whether photons have mass when they're in motion - they certainly can exert a force on things they hit i.e. solar sails. Perhaps that's why the phaser shot shimmers when frozen, because as soon as it is stopped it becomes massless.

    Just wait until vizzini gets started on Ridley's performance. Oh boy.

    It's a fantasy film...

    I'm on your side!!! Viz is arguing about how realistic space magic is in a fantasy film

    If Ito obeyed Newton's law, it would make the bold step from fantasy into sci-fi.

    Let's just all agree to draw a line in the sand and just ignore vizinni's ramblings from now on.

    I don't think you can deny this forum it's traditional sport, Gremmi. Still, maybe we should make a rule that you're only allowed to talk about vizzini if you talk about something else as well, so at least some semblance of sensible conversation continues in parallel.

    But now I'm not sure if this counts as talking about vizzini or not. Probably does. Er, I thought Ridley portrayed the vulnerability of her character pretty well. It remains to be seen how she copes with the character as it develops, which it must, but I assume the producer screen tested her for more than this performance alone, assuming she's the new Luke.

    Ladies and gentlemen of this supposed jury, I have one final thing I want you to consider. Ladies and gentlemen, this is Chewbacca. Chewbacca is a Wookiee from the planet Kashyyyk. But Chewbacca lives on the planet Endor. Now think about it; that does not make sense!

    Why would a Wookiee, an 8-foot-tall Wookiee, want to live on Endor, with a bunch of 2-foot-tall Ewoks? That does not make sense! But more important, you have to ask yourself: What does this have to do with this case? Nothing. Ladies and gentlemen, it has nothing to do with this case! It does not make sense! Look at me. I’m a lawyer defending a major record company, and I’m talkin’ about Chewbacca! Does that make sense? Ladies and gentlemen, I am not making any sense! None of this makes sense! And so you have to remember, when you’re in that jury room deliberatin’ and conjugatin’ the Emancipation Proclamation, does it make sense? No! Ladies and gentlemen of this supposed jury, it does not make sense! If Chewbacca lives on Endor, you must acquit! The defense rests.

    The difference is you're a contrarian and he's mental.

    That's really not true for Ep7, otherwise they would have ignored you lot and pickett's opinions on the prequels.
    Ok, let me rephrase that slightly. None of the audience cares about Newton's law. If there's a problem with it, it's not with the film, it's with the person who's a problem with it.

    I'm glad the expanded universe got tossed, a lot of it was very silly. Is the Christmas special still canon?

    In a universe where you can have light swords, stopping a bolt of light or plasma using the force is definitely not impossible. The fact that we haven't seen anyone doing it before shows us how powerful Ren is.

    It's not about physics, it's about how space magic affects physics, if you can't see that then you are a fucking goon.
