I mean why wouldn't it?

@Imperial Advisor Arem Heshvaun Awesome, thanks! Maybe you can edit the title to warn for spoilers? This thread might very likely have some at some point

That moment in the film.

I don’t have the Impeiral Academy school boy love for the Supremacy that I have and continue to have for the Executor .

It’s been 34 Years, but to this day, I still have recurring nightmares of the Executor plunging into the unfinished (but fully operational) Death Star’s superstructure.

In 1980 Kenner who made the Star Wars toys at the time had a contest to name Darth Vader’s flagship.

My two entries were the Inquisitor and the Punisher .

Sometimes I wonder if the empire's/first order's obsession with super weapons is stronger than a jedi's faith in the force.

All the First Order had to do was bring out some GUNBOATS and BAM, they win the war.

Thats why the arms dealers will not sell them. Or tie defenders. The scum dont want the war to end.

****. You've been a Star Wars fan that long, and you're not super bitter? Love you even more, dude. (Platonically, Advisor.)

felt weird how many new ships were used in ... literally 1 scene....

Least this thing was present most of the film.

What @Captain Lackwit said. And while I'm literally incapable of matching this, I very much share the sentiment above.

I always liked the name Executor . It's an odd name. Not Executioner, one who carries out a death sentence, but a term for one who is responsible for completing a task or duty. Usually, the term describes the executor of a last will and testament, the person charged with carrying out the relevant tasks. Of course, if it was named by kids in a Kenner contest, perhaps the kid just got it wrong.

Speaking of Kenner, did anyone else find that Kylo Ren's helmet with those silver lines around the edge reminds them of old Kenner packaging?

Well, tactically thinking here. I would have targeted the cruisers first with the super artillery. 1) It prevents escape 2) it forces the craft without hyperdrives to either get chewed up by fightercraft, return to the surface where they will be easily pursued mercilessly, or shot down by the array of capital ships. Even if the Resistance base had heavy space defense weapons, cutting off all avenues of escape should have been target priority number one.

Yeah, it's like Disney is writing them to be stupid.

The majority of things the FO does just screams bad tactics, I mean OF COURSE POE WAS GOING TO DO SOMETHING, SHOOT HIM WHILE HE'S DISTRACTED.

Congrats on making every single big starship irrelevant, and making the clone wars completely pointless.

The CIS outpaced the Republic in ship production 10-1. If hyperdrive ramming was a thing WHY THE ANDROID **** wasn't that the primary tactic of the CIS? Every single ship battle in the clone wars is now garbage.

Look, Anakin used the Venator as cover for his fighters and destroyed those three BC frigates... Nope, oops, one just hyperrammed the Venator.

An executor is somebody who gets things done or carried out. It cannot think of a better name for the Emperors symbolic “hand in space”/flag-ship.

True.

But it's also true that an executor is often a bureaucratic functionary. Which is also a great name for the flagship of an evil empire.
