I thought all those spaceships had inertia dampers and artificial gravity? If so g forces shouldn't matter, no?

Oh and blasters. Not lasers.

I'm still trying to figure out how lightsabers function.....
Man, those anti-gravity pods and inertia dampers will be all over the place in the Falcon...

They use the Force to stop light and make it solid (since light is a wave, and waves will go through each other, why our light saber fights with flashlights really didn't work).

Someone should work on the blasters, because the product of them moves about 147 fps, about 1/10 the speed of a bullet. That is, unless it comes from a Death Star. Those move faster, but you can still see them coming. That's why Luke and the rest of the Jedi can hit them (the blasters) like baseballs.

They say, Star Wars über fans, that the Jedi use the force to predict where the blaster will fire and that's why they can block it. Or freeze it in place apparently... But only when they DON'T know its coming.... . If you yell before shooting though, you will hit them.

But I can see them coming like everyone else, but they're the only one with baseball bats, err... light sabers.
 
The hype with the new episode(s) was not that we were getting just another Star Wars movie and another reboot to the series but that we were getting back the original (and great) protagonists and paying tribute to the original (and great) trilogy, which had marked an era. As such, I don't think they did a bad job, death star or not. Oh well, I guess I am getting old ...

I agree grad, I went into it thinking I wanted to see a good Star Wars movie, and I enjoyed how they portrayed the struggles of good and evil (and droids) like they did in the original trilogy. I'm also glad my kids could experience it too, because, I guess, I too am getting old.

So I bought the The Force Awakens blu ray and used my code to download the movie, it went directly to iTunes like I asked it to do, I see it in movies, it says it's about 6 GB so is this in iCloud because I see the iCloud icon next to the name of the movie but I don't have that much storage available in iCloud.

How does this work?

Stuff you buy from iTunes doesn't count against your iCloud storage, so you're good.

Ok thanks, it confused me because I didn't actually buy the download, well I guess I did when I bought the blu ray for $19.99 but I wasn't thinking of it like that. Thanks again.
