Pfft... Physics in Star Wars doesn’t matter. Lightsabers exist, after all.
Not to mention lasers curve in space, spaceships stop moving when they run out of fuel, sonic bombs work in space...Pfft... Physics in Star Wars doesn’t matter. Lightsabers exist, after all.

I honestly can’t take any complaints against real world physics issues when it comes to SW seriously because it obviously works differently in a galaxy far, far away.
Tell that to the people who whined at the bombs in TLJ.
(Wasn't complaining by the way, I'm agreeing with you.) Indeed, the unrealistic physics have been there from the very beginning. These are supposed to be like old fashioned space opera adventure serials like Flash Gordon, where everything's made up and the physics don't matter.
I know you were agreeing. Just backing you up, Skywalker.
You are absolutely right! Others just need something to whine about.Thing is the bombs work fine even with real physics, lmao.
True. One would believe the big ass Dreadnaught would create its own gravity.
That, and there’s clearly some sort of artificial gravity inside the bombers. Even without machinery or people ‘pushing’ them out, that force is also apparently ‘pushing’ in a certain direction. The bombs would still near-endlessly ‘fall’ in whatever direction they were pointed.

Yep.

Yeah, those dewdrops don't grow themselves!

Stopping out of hyperspace in a planet's atmosphere..ummm....yea
I'd believe lightsabers exist before that, and in fact Doctor Michio Kaku has already shown how it can be made. It would look and could sound just like a lightsaber, it's activation would just be a bit different.
1. Kaku’s not exactly the most respected source in physics circles. He has the basic knowledge, but most of his claims tend to fall into ‘technically anything’s possible’ trap. Basically speaking, he’s more of a futurist than anything. Good for getting people excited, not so much for actually putting into application.
2. No he didn’t. He addressed the physical possibility of generating and confining the beam like you see in a lightsaber. The engineering aspect (aka. The bits that make it ‘possible’ instead of ‘theoretical’; and a, you know... lightsaber. Rather than ‘just a laser’) not so much.
It’s like claiming that Science Of Star Trek proved dilithium could exist, because hey...it explored how we knackered out lithium and then tacked on ‘so imagine how we’ll refine that in the future.’

If, by "it's activation would just be a bit different," you mean that what Dr. Kaku is describing would be actually a ceramic rod enveloped in plasma and not really a lightsaber at all, then yes. So, in other words, no.
