6. Hardly Any Female Characters
Star Wars isn’t famous for having a wide host of strong female characters, and there’s only one. Princess Leia is the main lady inalienable to the first trilogy. Although she’s a tough lady who doesn’t take any crap from anybody, she’s flying solo on that front. As it is, she gets saved many times. Anyway, Star Wars: Episode VII appears to have a female character (played by Daisy Ridley) up front, as a method for revising the gender bias innate to this exceptionally popular galaxy far, far away…
5. Senseless Time Frame In The Empire Strikes Back
There’s something marginally “off” about the time span to what is ostensibly the best Star Wars motion picture ever made. This is to say, The Empire Strikes Back has a truly strange time frame. In it, events are altered to show up just as they are taking place at around the same time that they clearly couldn’t have been, given the specifics. It’s the time slip that happens when Han, Leia and the others are separated from Luke Skywalker. Han and Leia’s adventures seem to happen through the span of a couple days. However, Luke’s training with Yoda hopes to traverse weeks. This is being liberal, given that being a Jedi would take considerably more time. But the motion picture renders these occasions alongside each other, making it an odd time frame that doesn’t hold up.
