20 Most Ridiculous Moments In Star Wars

13. Closing The Exhaust Port "Plot Hole" (Rogue One)

The Moment: It's revealed that Jyn Erso's father Galen, who was forced to design the Death Star, intentionally included the infamous exposed exhaust port on the Death Star to give the resistance a better chance of destroying it.

Why It's So Ridiculous: It's simply hilarious that Rogue One actually bothered to fix a plot hole that's been bugging a certain quarter of fans for four decades, even though most casual fans basically didn't care enough about the Death Star's silly weakness to kick up a fuss.

In fairness it's actually a pretty decent explanation as far as after-the-fact ret-cons go, but it was still hard not to laugh.
