Wii_Shaker 03/30/21 3:45:51 AM #20:	Slavery was probably a peaceful alternative to all out war on Tattooine. Considering the Hutts were gangsters that dabbled in all sorts of interplanetary crime. Slaves could be bought legally on one planet then transported to another without a slave trade. The Jedi were far from perfect and there are many examples where individual Jedi were conflicted by the decisions agreed upon by the counsel. The Sith provided more opportunity to escape slavery than the Jedi order did and The Empire even more so. --- "He busted in, blessed be the Lord Who believe any mess they read up on a message board" -MF DOOM 1970-2020 (G.O.A.T.) <cite>Wii_Shaker posted [p:952269191] in Give me on...

So what TPM didn't show you was the weeks it would have likely taken them to fly from one system to another in sublight. It's not like Naboo and Tatooine are in the same system. EDIT: My mistake. Hyperdrive worked just well enough to get them as far as Tatooine. It's in the novelization. "In the novel" is not a justification for anything ever. "In the novel" means "the author of an inconsequential novel put more thought into the story than the actual scriptwriter for the biggest franchise on the planet." Not saying you're excusing anything, but Star Wars nerds do this all the time, especially with the PT. It's taken several novels and an animated TV series to give the nerds enough "proof" that the PT wasn't juvenile and horribly flawed. --- 'Cause you know that I have no fear, ain't gonna walk into the river and disappear.

I'm not trying to exonerate people who don't know how to write. I'm treating the Star Wars universe as living and breathing. Also as a fantasy. If you'd rather pretend certain parts of it didn't exist, that's your business. --- CyricZ He/him <cite>CyricZ posted [p:952335404] in Give me on...
