Answer: Because architect Hannibal Lecter was out to get those space nazi mother fuckers and was sabotaging them from the start.
That was perfect.
It’s not just the plot hole of the flaw, “reactors need vents” would have answered that, but it explains why the first Death Star took like 20 years to build even though we saw it was half built at the end of ROTS then but the second Death Star took like 2 years.
It was because Hideo Kojimas Best Friend was fucking ruining their shit the first time, ordering the wrong screws, tripping over cables, spilling coffee on computers, accidentally hitting key engineers on he head with a 2-by-4 anything to delay the space nazis planet fucker.
Galen was the most brilliantly half-assed employee ever.
Kids, let’s consider something else.
In Return of the Jedi, the Super Star Destroyer is taken out by destroying the main bridge. Now, I get it. The bridge is the main control center. But this ship is 19 kilometers long. That’s the length of just over 19 regular Imperial-I or Imperial-II class Star Destroyers. In a ship that large, why the fuck isn’t there a back-up a bridge, a fail-safe, an autopilot or some shit that can account for and withstand the unlikely event that the main bridge is taken out by an enemy battlecruiser’s turbolaser batteries (or in this case, one luckyass suicidal pilot)?
It’s almost like this ship was designed by some dumbass named Galen Erso.
One film critic: “Rogue One was just $200 million spent on filling in a plot hole.” Me: “Well, yeah, but it was a plot hole that needed answering, in fairness. Everyone has wondered for decades why the Death Star had such a fatal design flaw in the first place.”
