[net.movies.sw] Minor Quibbles

Did it strike anyone as odd that the Death Star was just as large
when viewed from ships nearby as it was from the ground below
on Endor?  Neat optical effect, huh?

Would you want to be an Imperial Stormtrooper when your armor
can't even deflect arrows, let along ray gun blasts?

What kind of metal do they make walkers out of so that two
free-falling logs can crush it but other weapons can't
even dent it?  Better yet, what kind of logs were those?

How do you like (nuclear?) reactors that blow up at chemical
reaction speed but with considerably more force?  I mean,
the ships inside were able to outrace the blast effects.

I liked the movie, though....
