Gravity on space ships

Does anyone get what's going on on the Invisible Hand when it starts turning twowrds Coruscant? We see R2 sliding down, Anakin and OB1 walking through a horizontal elevator shaft.

So far I've only seen that all SW space ships have artificial garvity (who knows what side is up when in space?). And here we see droids and people falling towards the side the ship is leaning to. Odd...

it just made a need scene Lucas thought... he doesn't go and check on details 😱

Well, he should.

he also should take a diet, but you don't hear people complain about that 😉

Yeah, this has probably always been a flaw with space ships that have gravity in the movies.

It's fantasy. Just remember the scene in ROTJ where the Star Destroyer "dives" into the second Death Star.

Maybe it's the inertial compensators going haywire and they tilt along with the ship. (my fanboy idea)

also, large explosions noise in space---shouldnt really happen also if you notice when anakin shoots out the hands hangar bay sheild, nothing gets sucked out. It's my firm belief these things we must just take as truths in a galaxy far far away

Yes, the ultimate answer. It's not our galaxy...😛

:cry:
meanie!

yes things were getting sucked out if you look closely and thats why the door closed after.
as for the ships gravity it was something wrong with the antigravity thingy that screwed things ups.

What about the scene on the bridge of the Invisible Hand when Grevious breaks the window. It only took about a minute before Anakin and Obi-Wan were breathing oxygen again in the next scene, not to mention the fact that they woulden't be able to breathe while the window was open. 😮‍💨

exactly and if you wanna get really technical the bridge incident would only happen like that if they were flying IN atmosphere in space if a window broke and they werent wearing any space suit the pressure release would immediatley explode their heads

Star Wars ships seem to have artificial gravity.

You'd need an artificial gravity device in order to do this. The Invisible hand was trashed, therefore we can assume it's gravity drive was wrecked.

The planet's gravity took over instead.

umm i don't think there heads would explode, it is the air escaping the bridge and blowing them into space, there could still be some atmosphere in there.

ohhh there heads WOULD explode trust me 😛 😄 😆

I dunno. The spaceship in ROTJ could have had its steering screwed up because of the blasts. Doesn't have to be an Endor gravity thing, could be the gravity of the DS though...

As for the air being sucked out, when a window breaks it doesn't immediately make everything vacuum instantly, there's still oxygen being vented.

And for Coruscant's gravity "taking over" that is so odd.

So yes, it's a different universe, but we do learn certain laws of this universe through the films. And one is: spaceships have artificial gravity. Otherwise you would NEVER be able to walk in them.

Not necessarily, if the Emergancy Systems had enough time to kick in and seal off the bridge from the rest of the ship, the ES would have the window closed before all of the air escaped.

*The More you Know!*

Just my point.

And if you want to get even more technical, if GG could throw a metal poll and break the window, then surly the pressure would have broken the glass already it would seem. Even though GG could probably throw it very hard to break it having had cyborg parts, then he could have completely crushed Obi in the lightsaber battle (I'm not sure if this is all right since I haven't looked into it or anything, but that's what it would seem).

Yeah, but that is all SW magic. Plus tehre is Force power on OB1's side. The gravity thing is new.
