Okay, Perhaps Star Wars Had a Plot Hole or Two of Its Own

The How It Should Have Ended guys take on Star Wars, revealing that perhaps the original trilogy had more problems that just Luke's bat-shit insane plan for rescuing Han from Jabba. (Via /Film)

That was hilarious.

Yavin IV is a gas giant. Shooting it would probably have no effect anyways.

But ignoring that, blowing up the planet would have also knocked the moon out of orbit, requiring them to now aim through a dense asteroid field at a new location, and giving the rebels plenty of time to simply evacuate and go somewhere else.

I'm pretty sure the exhaust port deal was retconned as a deliberate move on the part of the Trade Federation in case the Death Star was used against them, but that's a cop out.

I can't wait for the Star Wars nerds who have no concept of what it's like to just take a joke to come out and explain over and over again all the many reasons why this video doesn't make sense in the vast scheme of their universe.

Whatever you do, don't just enjoy the video. Don't realize that it's just a little bit of comedy. Instead, take Star Wars super serious and murder humor.

Newsflash: no one cares. We just want to laugh.

I can't wait for the self important jackasses who don't realize the writer of this blog is the biggest geek of them all to come out of the woodwork just to put down other geeks to make themselves feel better about the fact that they're reading a blog focusing primarily on toys, videogames, and sci fi shows.

Newsflash: We're geeks, it's what we do.

I can't wait for all the meatheads to show up and start bashing each other. By all means, treat TR as if it were YouTube. Anyone who pokes fun at geeks should find something better to do with their time. The geeks who respond to those who DO need to shut the fuck up and get laid.

Newsflash: Your opinions are worthless anyway...

Why am I commenting on this? Where are my carkeys?

Newsflash: That's actually a pretty cliched manner of getting a point across. I'm just here to plug my blog. Shame.

Star War fans please explain this 2 plot holes:

>>> Episode 3: Vader never felt Kenobi's presence the last time they met.

>>> Episode 4
Ben Kenobi tells Luke his father wanted him to get his old lightsaber but luke's uncle didnt let him have it. So Vader knows luke was born. Why he never looked for him all over the galaxy?

Emperor Palpatine tells Darth Vader that Luke is his son (and still Vader doubts it). Then Vader realizes he has a son.(He already Knew that) Now he looks for him all over the galaxy.

**If in episode 4 is stated Vader did know he had a son, why in episode 5 is stated he never knew about it?**
