Not all blasters were capable of cutting straight through Stormtrooper's armor. Han Solo's DL-44 "found increased use at the hands of outlaws and fringers on the edge of legality, groups like smugglers and the Rebel Alliance due to its capability to penetrate stormtrooper armor. This caused the Empire to put a restriction order upon this model, restricting and technically outlawing the purchase and ownership of the gun."
everyone knows that.

It's like the old saying: when you make laser guns criminal, only criminals will have laser guns.

And that First Order Stormtrooper blocked a lightsaber with his riot control baton? And the point to any of this? It's a fantasy movie.

Star Wars Episode VIII delayed 7 months.
Now a Christmas 2017 release.
No word on if this effects the Rogue One movie set to be released in December 2016.

Of course Salacious Crumb is the real hero of Return of the Jedi.
Bib is weak-minded and weird looking. I do have an action figure of him though. ;D

Nobody uses the "B".
Do you call Leia either Leia Organa Solo or Leia Amidala Skywalker?

Leia Organa Solo. She was officially adopted so that she could assume the crown and become Princess. She then married so….

I know the history of Leia. I was trying to ask if he spoke/typed any of her various whole names every single time he referred to her.
Her CURRENT name with title is General Leia Organa - as her and Han Solo are no longer together.

Did they divorce? And did she change her name back?
My ex-wife kept my last name until she remarried.
