it's a spectacular moment, but does it make sense?

I've come to like The Last Jedi less and less as the years have passed. And The Critical Drinker is right about Rian Johnson and his soccer-ball-shaped (the Drinker would doubtless say football-shaped) head.

  1. I hated TLJ pretty much from the get-go, and the "Holdo Maneuver" never made any sense. It pissed me off so much when I saw it in the cinema. Not because of the physics of it (this is Star Wars--we left real-world physics behind a long time ago) but because of the story/universe implications. A lot of people have tried to retcon this, but that's all it is--retconning.
