    Nope. Quantum entanglement is when two particles are made to have the same states. Measuring one tells you about the other one in much the same way you can tell what someone you’ve never met before looks like if you’ve seen their identical twin. Also, much like how punching one twin in the face and breaking their nose has no effect on the other twin fifty miles away, doing something to one half of an entangled pair does nothing to the other. In fact, because they’re no longer identical, the particles aren’t considered to be entangled anymore.

    Entanglement can be used for encryption, but it can’t be used to transmit data.


  • I at least appreciate what 8 was trying to do, even though it really needed more time in the oven and probably would have worked better as a side movie, but 9 was an abject disaster. It convinced me that JJ Abrams literally can’t concieve of a Star Wars story that isn’t just the original trilogy with a different coat of paint. He deliberately undid everything in 8 so that he could cram ESB and ROTJ into the same movie. Hell, he got Adam Driver onboard with 7 by telling him that Kylo Ren wouldn’t be a rehash of the Vader plot, then rehashed the Vader plot with Kylo anyway. At least 8 showed some form of creativity.

    My roommate has only experienced 9 by way of Lego Star Wars and said the characters side-eye the camera every time the plot doesn’t make sense. I’m pretty sure that’s the best way to see the movie.
