Re: The Mandalorian
When you literally smash a ship into the planet a bit of welding isn't going to get it up and running again. What happened is the stupidest and last thing I was expecting to see. I thought either Yoda was going to do some jedi magic or the rebel pilots were going to give him a hand. I would have been happy with either of those. Instead we had a couple of hour of welding which magically fixed any fuel and oil leaks in the engines, fixed any delicate components in the engines etc etc etc..........

Re: The Mandalorian
I really don’t get where you’re coming from. Star Wars tech has always been portrayed as rugged, simple and, often, barely serviceable. The entire plot of the Empire Strikes Back hinges on it. Everything is always blowing up, getting patched up and carrying on. I can only imagine you’ve filled your head with a ton of low-grade extended universe stuff, or else you’re confusing it with the sort of pseudoscientific crud you read in the Star Trek Technical Manual.

Re: The Mandalorian
The Falcon was always breaking down and falling apart. They usually foxed it with a bit of welding or snacking the console.
Star Wars tech is not meant to be realistic or anything. They managed to seal the cockpit and patch up the engines enough to limp to the planned planet. Without Hyperspace travel. So I see nothing wrong in the way the ship was repaired. It was a patch job just to enable to to have basic flight. |

However in this week’s Mandalorian they were quite explicit that there is an engine technology in the Star Wars universe that can cross modest interstellar distances without hyperdrive. Of course they haven’t wasted any time explaining how that is meant to work - that’s Star Trek’s purview. Star Wars is science fantasy, and it should be enough for us to know what can happen, without needing to know how. |
Re: The Mandalorian
Of course. The destination planet must have been in the next sector as seen in the route plan shown. With Mando having a sleep it was clearly going to take a number of hours. It was all perfectly credible and acceptable in the universe I have known for decades.
TLJ and Solo both seemed to confuse things by introducing the concept of fuel in the universe and that it was a finite source that needed topping up. That for me was the daftest thing to appear in the recent movies. |
Re: The Mandalorian
Ship's going to need a bit more patching up if the main hull cannot hold pressure. All those horrid spiders. Ugh.

Re: The Mandalorian
I don't think this is the show for you. It seems like you're just complaining about every episode and they can't do anything right.
