Damn it, this always happens. I think I'm gonna score, and then I never score. It's not fair.

They don’t show it actually entering/exiting, but the Rebels ships mention detecting a massive object coming out of hyperspace and then it’s shown coming up around Scarif.

Holy hookrat Sally smoking crack in the alley!



It's never shown actually entering or leaving hyperspace, but at the end of R1 a guy on the rebel flagship says "we're detecting a massive object emerging from hyperspace!" and then we cut to the Death Star slowly rising above the planet.

Seeing it flicker in/out of existence would feel a little undignified, it works much better as a looming presence whose faster motions are left implied. Like a slasher villain.

hypothetical: instead of returning to Naboo, Queen Amidala continues to try shifting the Senate into action, and ineffectually at that. would the Trade Federation actually have literally starved the entire Naboo population to death?

Only if Palpatine thought it would be useful. Is it better for him to be from a planet of heroes or a planet of martyrs?
