Um...maybe it was just a dub issue but I pretty clearly remember Dragon Ball Z characters moving faster than light speed on any number of occasions. Hell, Raditz was capable of it. This isn't even touching on Instant Transmission.

It's... Not even remotely a perfect defense. Saying "I think this is unbeatable therefore you cannot do anything that could beat it, because that would be cheating" is a sure sign of a scrub.
I mean, it's perfect in the sense that it's invincible...
It just, y'know, doesn't cover the entire body and the body it does shield is far from invincible.

I'm more incredulous than aggravated, tbh.

Wouldn't Superman just use his super speed to take the shield away from Cap? Or Supes could use heat vision on any part of Cap's body not protected by the shield.

This is a pretty dumb example since there is absolutely no way, short of a convenient source of kyrptonite nearby, that Captain American can beat Superman. The dude's just way too powerful.

This is death battle so we have to play by death battle's rules and they state that no... Superman couldn't use his super speed to hit Captain America past his shield.

Watch Cloud Vs. Link for that.
How is that a rule?

I thought Superman gave up his American citizenship in order to better serve the entire world?

It's a good point though, they're both pretty much on the same side.

Bah, what's the point of being in the future if you guys don't have flying cars and spaceships yet? :P

The weak point wasn't the ventilation shaft. The weak point was that shooting the reactor core once would cause a cascading failure that made the whole station go up like the largest bootleg Chinese firecracker ever made.

Note that the same thing happened to Death Star II: part of the reactor got shot a couple times by a fighter and the entire station detonated.

Now granted, it's silly as hell to have a "ventilation shaft" IN HARD VACUUM WHERE HEAT DOESN'T DISSIPATE VERY MUCH, and that could also have been part of it, but the big bit was the reactor having basically no failsafes or emergency shutdown.
A fighter and a light freighter...but yeah, that's a very good point.

You're correct of course. However I got the impression that the Rebel fleet simply had to strike before DSII was finished because they would not be able to repeat the same tactic as last time.

I swear that the EU at some point also mentioned that the single large vent was going to be replaced by many tiny vents, none large enough to admit access to a pair of proton torpedoes. The EU is questionably canon now, but it makes sense that even the Empire would be capable of correcting that sort of flaw.

It'd have to be buried really, really deep, perhaps shielded and armored, and even then...

Obviously some plans survived somewhere because they built a second one, but without the mole's edits they (accidentally?) corrected the hidden sabotage.
