the big starwars ships are shown in movies with windows with people behind; for the sizes given to fit the average storm trooper must be about 50 foot tall.

the same issue pops up with enterprise, we often see the captain staring out of his little window while the camera zooms away, following scale his cabin takes up about a 5th of the ship. which probably only has room for about 12 people on board.

Yeah, they used to do this when they only had to work with models. Expect real scale people from now on due to CGI taking over the role of the models. CGI will scale everything appropriately.
