    They let them go.

    It’s the only explanation.

    (Edit: also for the record…. Just because the bucket heads are the most precise, doesn’t really mean that they’re precise. It’s all relative.)

      Well, yes, on the first movie they are supposed to miss the protagonists on purpose.

      And then they go on every other movie, missing everything just because they suck. Also, on the first scene of the first movie, there’s tens of them shooting through a narrow hall, and only Vader manages to kill anybody…

      What is to say, those movies aren’t very consistent.

        There’s like five rebel bodies in the very first two minutes that Stormtroopers walk over.

      yeah there’s a reason Obi-Wan hates blasters. it’s not just that they’re not artful, it’s also that they’re not very accurate. han manages to consistently hit his targets, but it’s also heavily implied he’s force sensitive and that’s how he’s able to perform his incredible feats of piloting. he’s probably also guiding his blaster bolts without even realizing he’s doing that
