Star Wars fans are debating the merits of two of the most iconic spacecraft in the galaxy to determine which one would come out on top in a contest.
The discussion kicked off in the r/Star Wars subreddit when Andydabeast asked, “Who wins in a space battle? Luthen in his ship or Han, Chewie, Luke, Obi-Wan in the Falcon?”
Somewhere along the line, Marvel Cinematic Universe fans instantly turned on Taika Waititi, with Thor: Love and Thunder comfortably proving to be the most polarizing movie in the constantly-divisive Phase Four, and perhaps even the most opinion-splitting installment overall depending on how you feel about She-Hulk: Attorney at Law.
Having been praised to the heavens for reinventing the Odinson in Ragnarok, the filmmaker came under heavy and sustained fire for overindulging himself a little too much on the follow-up. Of course, that shouldn’t gloss over the fact that the Academy Award winner boasts a track record of critical and commercial success over the last decade that few can match, but the doubters now have to wait even longer to see if they’ll be won over by his return to independent cinema.
We are now five long years out from Star Wars: The Last Jedi, and it remains a hot topic of conversation amongst fans. At this point, it seems like the debate will last forever, with fans having taken firm sides on Rian Johnson’s grumpy hermit Luke Skywalker and his argument that the Force shouldn’t be reserved for a few aristocratic space bloodlines. Above all that, there’s one scene in particular that leaves an itch that still can’t be scratched.
This is, of course, the infamous Holdo Maneuver. Faced with an apparently unwinnable battle against the First Order, Laura Dern’s Admiral Holdo has a stunning final roll of the dice up her sleeve. She turns her cruiser around to face them, fires up her hyperspace drive, and executes a lightspeed kamikaze strike on the First Order fleet.
