Your rejoinder to the fact that Luke did something similar without training? Bloodline--brilliant considering that they're twins.
And now, after it's pointed out that two of the most powerful jedis didn't share that bloodline, you go back to training. Though, of course, I never saw a training montage for Yoda or Windu.

Physics-wise, there was nothing wrong with the Leia scene. Additionally, there was nothing wrong within the force mythology with what Leia did. Fact - you CAN survive in a vacuum for up for 2 or 3 minutes as long as you expel air from your lungs. Getting blasted by a cannon is going to naturally do that.
However, I do agree that they the way they visualized it could have been much better. It looked very Mary Poppin-ish or Superman-ish.
Now if you want to talk a scene that will make a physicist go "Wut", lets talk about the ships tumbling end-over-end after running out of fuel. That was really bad. [Reply]

Or bombs dropping from a bomber in a zero gravity environment. I am allowing myself to believe the rebels were creative with magnets to get away with that one. [Reply]

I didn't even think about that. Lets not get into the fact that a object with mass going as fast as light would probably destroy the entire universe. Another reason to hate the hyperspace-kamikaze [Reply]
