A flaw nobody seems to mention.


Been a big fan of Star Wars for 35 years or so, but can't believe nobody seems to mention quite a big plot point in this new film that changes Star Wars.

i was wondering why the bad guys parked their ship a mile away and walked so much further than necessary in the opening scene

Changes Star Wars, how? Rogue One simply tells the story of how the Death Star's critical flaw came to be there. It didn't make any sense the way ANH presented it, as it was a pretty stupid flaw, verging on a deus ex machina. But Rogue One actually explains how such a flaw makes sense.
