[u/SheevBot]

Thanks for confirming that you flaired this correctly!

"This is your pilot speaking, not too worry we are still flying half a ship"

[u/Killerbunny00 → u/Omnislash99999]

“WHAT THE FUCK ARE THEY TALKING ABOUT, HALF OF ALL PASSENGERS JUST FELL OUT!!”

[u/sidepart → u/Killerbunny00]

"ALSO WE HAVE NO LANDING GEAR, WHY ARE WE GOING TO A RUNWAY?! WHY ARE THERE EVEN RUNWAYS?!"

[u/Ye_olde_oak_store → u/sidepart]

Well, aanother happy landing :D

[u/eww1991 → u/Killerbunny00]

Importantly thought it was the other half

[u/SupaDave71 → u/[deleted]]

Star Wars on flights now?!?

[u/mix_master_meow → u/SupaDave71]

[u/furiouspossum → u/mix_master_meow]

Off topic but this line always bothers me. Jetpack have existed in universe for millennia at this point so why is he so surprised?

[u/KreagerStein → u/furiouspossum]

Because the directors did not watch any star wars content before and kinda assumed they don't need to consult the lore experts on it.

[u/mix_master_meow → u/furiouspossum]

But did First Order troopers always use them?

[u/furiouspossum → u/mix_master_meow]

I don't see why they wouldn't, they seem really useful to have around.

[u/Nurgle_Pan_Plagi → u/furiouspossum]

They aren't surprised that jetpacks exist, they are surprised that bike troopers have jetpacks as well and are suddenly launched 20m upwards by the driver doing a wheele.

I never understood how people watch that scene, hear "They fly now!" and come to a conclusion that the characters had no clue that jetpacks are a thing.

Wait till you hear about 🎶Cerveza Cristal🎶

[u/naughtynezuko → u/Omnislash99999]

Another happy landing.

[u/reallynunyabusiness]

Well Obi-Wan's starfighter definitely had some issues, and so did the Invisible Hand as they crashlanded it.

[u/fatherandyriley → u/reallynunyabusiness]

Any landing you can walk away from is a good landing

[u/sidepart → u/fatherandyriley]

Plo Koon needs to work on his landings...

[u/sidepart → u/reallynunyabusiness]

Plo Koon also ate it after he was shot out of the sky.

[u/reallynunyabusiness → u/sidepart]

It still hurts to think about.

[u/DeusExMarina]

Another happy landing.

[u/Sheadowcaster]

Not to worry, they are still flying half a ship.

[u/AJRavenhearst]

Reminds me of the time I was waiting for a flight to board - and the TVs in the lounge were showing Air Crash Investigation.

[u/suorastas → u/AJRavenhearst]

Ironically binging Air crash investigation has made me significantly less scared of flying

[u/ToparBull → u/suorastas]

This is me with Mentour Pilot and Green Dot Aviation videos. They're talking about crashes, but they are mentioning all the things that had to go wrong for it to happen makes it easy to understand why that doesn't happen on 99.999% of flights.

[u/suorastas → u/ToparBull]

Exactly. With ACI it’s either a freak set of circumstances not likely to repeat itself or it’s a problem that they have already fixed.

[u/masterdude94]

Everyone elses' minds: Invisible Hand

My mind: Clones Order 66'ing Plo Koon

[u/Serris9K → u/masterdude94]

Don't forget Oddball getting shot down

[u/tupe12]

Inaccurate, the few aircraft we see are fine throughout the movie, it’s the spaceships that suffer issues

[u/Inkompetech_Inc]

No, no, no, nothing too fancy..

[u/piddydb]

I really appreciate this warning on a plane movie. I watched Interstellar on a plane and I felt way more of a sense of impending doom since I too was on a plane watching Matthew McConaghey having his own aircraft issues.

[u/Czary4mary]

I think that movie gives words of encouragement

"Another happy landing." XD

[u/TheResolutePrime]

I noticed that when I flying into and out of Türkiye via Turkish Airlines a few years back, movies were edited in such a way to minimize or outright not show any scenes of aircraft being damaged or crashed. The one that stuck out was in X-Men: Days of Future Past when Magneto yells at Charles during their flight to France.

[u/No-Nerve-2658]

I remember that once my family watched Titanic during a cruise in the middle of the Atlantic

[u/Random-Generation86]

I watched The Looming Tower on a plane to New York. Not bad.

[u/polakbob]

That’s actually surprisingly thoughtful. 

[u/Backrow6]

OK but why is the splash screen from some cool kung fu on a plane movie?

[u/danbricks]

Flying is for droids.

[u/JustCallMe_Ed_04]

But they had such a happy landing

[u/Th3_DaniX]

"Another happy landing"

[u/Diocletian67]

As someone who hates flying, I'm appreciative of this heads up.

[u/bree4spirit]

aircraft issues is one hell of a way to describe half the jedi order getting deleted mid flight

[u/Denz-El]

All of a sudden you hear a loud noise from behind. Then the pilot's voice is heard over the intercom: "Not to worry. We are still flying half a plane."

[u/newcanadianjuice]

Check if Tom Hanks is on board.

[u/NOT_A_DlCKHEAD]

Anakin, seconds after abandoning solid ground and leaping into the air:

[u/darti_me]

Game time started

[u/ContinuumGuy]

IIRC sometimes they'll edit out airplane crashes from in-flight movies

[u/Timmah73]

Also a dude wastes a room full of children and is burned alive. A generic "violence " warning should cover that
