I agree. Didn't they "jump" from one ship to another (or possibly to a
planets surface) in one of the recent ones? No equipment or special
tractor beams or anything to explain it, they just jumped.

I think a good story sets up the enviroment for the plot, than stays true
to the environment. Otherwise the suspension of disbelief just doesn't
work for me.
