As a Star Wars fan, I find it hard to hate on anything in the galaxy far, far away. Still, we can all take a step back and poke fun at things that are just plain silly. On the r/StarWars subreddit, Reddit user u/OutcastKatarn02 asked: What is the dumbest thing inStar Wars, in your opinion? The responses went into lightspeed, and here are just some of the best answers:1. "My pick is the Inquisitor lightsabers functioning as helicopter blades."

Disney XD2. "The Clone Troopers charge into enemies, instead of retreating to keep their distance from enemies."

Warner Bros. Pictures3. "The assassination plot on Amidala that Sidious outsources to Dooku, who outsources it to Jango Fett, who outsources it to Zam Wessell, who outsources it to an assassin droid, who outsources it to two large bugs."
