I always thought this as well. Star Treks were much better designed.

I was a real fan of Star Wars back in '77...yikes has it been that long? I was an 8 year-old kid in the summer of '77 and can still recall the joy and exhilaration upon leaving the theater after seeing Star Wars on the big screen. It wasn't until Pulp Fiction came out 17 years later that I again had that much fun going to the movies.

Funny stuff but “The Blaster” part is a bit weak.

I'll come right out and say it: Star Wars has a badly-designed universe; so poorly-designed, in fact, that one can say that a significant goal of all those Star Wars novels is to rationalize and mitigate the bad design choices of the movies. Need examples? Here's ten. Hilarious!

i always thought is was a little strange that in order to manually disengage a tractor beam, you had to balance on a very skinny ledge over a bottomless pit.

Yet how many of us under age 50 fell into the fantasy and watched the series(if not once, many times) and/or bought our kids star wars toys?

Ummmmm. Has anyone told this guy that Star Wars was just a movie?
At least the Star Wars personnel don’t spend all their time agonizing about their feelings like those pathetic Next Generation losers.

So poorly designed that it will probably never stop making a profit... ever.
