@zweiwalker89607 The worst part of order 66 is that they immediately start saying "yes lord sideous", like they should have no idea hes a sith!

@BenRamanauskas We spend less than equivilent countries with insurance systems, why on earth would we replace it?

@LambentLucien But if he was watching her close enough to know she was spilling his identity, why didnt he load the worms into the droid himself?

@PinkertonsGhost It doesn't need to be realistic, it needs to be internally consistent.

@Pudge_19 @trekor19 Unprotected? It was shielded. Of course it leads directly from the reactor, how else would it vent the exhaust?

@cszabla Given that they know where close to 100% of their income comes from, and exactly when, how can their cash management be this bad?

[Alex @AlexTurlais]

@fawfulfan True, but he was probably merging in his head the East India Company (which the Trade Federation basically is) and the later British rule which has Viceroys.

@fawfulfan True, but in those cases, elected kings are coming from a group of hereditary chiefs/princes ect. Its not the same as electing a random child from a random family.

@ernietedeschi I don't mind it, most US states, or Canadian Provinces, have only one or 2 real cities. In the star wars universe, a lot of these planets only exist for a resource of some kind, so they only need a few settlements for the workers.

@fawfulfan 1) that explanation doesn't work since they go to Tatooine
2) I dont know of any elected monarchy with a fixed term, that elects children and gives them executive powers.

@TSoS_ It has some messier parts but its at least a lot more interesting than any other show, and has the best lightsaber fights outside the movies.

@MadcapMcQ TLJ ends in almost exactly the same way as ESB, what are you talking about?

[Alex @AlexTurlais]

@ShatteredSFW "He told us he could make our invasion legal... and he looks just like the guy who benefited most from the invasion..." Check his call history! Check his pocket and see hes carrying a lightsaber!

@alfredjviii Blade Runner has a bunch of different versions but they published them and you can buy them in the same collection. If GL had done the same, no-one would mind.

@AlexKoenig1 @robbysoave How much are jedi salaries that you can buy an army?

[Alex @AlexTurlais]

@Schaffrillas My nitpick is why does every clone respond with "yes my lord". They don't know Palpatine is a Sith. They don't know what a Sith is. In their minds, they were just given a lawful order by the Chancellor, so why the new title?

[Alex @AlexTurlais]

@AlexKoenig1 @robbysoave They were told that, by one scientist they dont know, and they don't know who paid for those clones. Why would they trust the Kaminoans at all?

@EllenFWalker Men love hardware stores.

@_PaleblueDot__ @PenseesofPascal Why would they not be afraid if the star destroyers which are capable of similar levels of destruction?
