Yeah, they're superamplifiers, essentially.

Why did they tell Porkins to eject?
Because his craft was coming apart around him.

The pilots' helmets originally had oxygen masks and longer visors that sealed to them. That was changed so we could see the actors' faces better. The closed-face version still shows up in the EU, and can be presumed to be a function of those helmets that we just never see onscreen. The rest of the outfit is presumed to be a nice, ultra-futuristic spacesuit. And some versions have a clamshell closing around the pilot seat and that's what gets ejected. Either way, just presume there's a vacuum-rated ejection system that won't kill the pilot, and we just never see it used. Otherwise, the line would have been likely cut in one of George's many revisions.

When c3po and r2 eject in the escape pod in ANH and the imperial officer says "hold your fire there is no life forms "
this always drove me crazy ? WHY HOLD YOUR FIRE!
Energy conservation ? I don't think an imperial star destroyer needs to worry about that ?
Imagine the gunners internal conversation ! I could have upped my weekly accuracy score so much for winning the slab of tatooine tubes
is it control, a sign of control to not have to fire unless required ......see answer 1.
or did George. Gsump it ........errrrgh well we cannot do effect yet

The interesting thing about this is that Droids are such an intelligent form of life in the galaxy.

I would assume that a) lightsabers are constructed in such a way that they're not affected by the Force other than their own wielder, and/or b) they're connected to the wielder's flow of the Force, and therefore protected while they're still in the wielder's hands.

or force offensive is no option if having to use the force for force defense to prevent opponent from breaking body, Pulling arms out of sockets like a wookie for example.

If Han & Chewie are both in the cockpit when they return to the Battle of Yavin right before Luke destroys the Death Star at the end of Ep IV A New Hope, who fired the lasers from the Millenium Falcon?
Those were pretty precise hits for somebody not to be seated in the laser wells

Budget cutbacks: you only get 50 cartridges per turbolaser, per week. If you use 'em all up before then, you just have to wait

I just re-watched the ROTJ, and here's what I'm wondering: near the very end, when the Force Ghosts appear to Luke, Leia comes and hugs him. She smiles at him and they both leave after Luke looks at the Ghosts one more time. But Leia doesn't react to them at all. So, did they appear just for Luke to see them?
