    you can tell this was a long long time ago because the camera bump hadn’t been invented to sell cases yet.

    I think they should make another main line movie, and have a variant of the death star. That would amazing.

    Amazing because of how lifeless the creativity on display would be.

    Ironically more useful; multiple firing arrays at lower power settings mean it can selectively reduce its destruction to merely glassing a planet, cracking it open, or total obliteration. I mean having a super weapon is all well and good but obliterating a planet is usually overkill.

      Why can’t they just turn a dial down? Or maybe they can. It was a terror weapon, not an efficiency weapon. Your entire planet being just gone and not even a grave site people can visit is a pretty scary thing.
