Why was the princess rescued in the first place?
In the 1977 movie release of Star Wars Episode IV, why was the princess rescued in the first place?
As the required information was with the droid and a lot of time had passed since she was captured, there was a high probablity that she was already dead.
Even if she was to be rescued, why not do both the missions - rescuing the princess and destroying the weapon at the same time?
Best Answer
If I remember correctly, there was no particular plan to save the princess. They ended up on the Death Star because of a tractor beam when they came out of hyperspace. Their goal was to deliver the schematics to Alderaan which has been destroyed by the Death Star. When, after being dragged onto the Death Star, they discover that she is aboard and still alive, they then move to rescue her in order to collect some cash (in Han's case).
