This was one of the big reasons I like RO, maybe I missed some EU stories but holy hell it bothered the crap out of me that the Rebellion was always 100% in the right with what they were doing, that they never did anything that was morally wrong.
Yeah...I know it's fiction, that was one of the things, despite me having the RA in my Top 3 factions that bothered me to no end, cause there was no way that they were always right, that's just completely unrealistic even by fiction standards with the way the SWU is set up.

Rogue One by a long shot.
I loved pretty much everything about the movie.
My only complaints are:
- minimal dialogue
- minimal character development
- Jyn not being as rebellious as advertised
But considering the fast pace of the movie and the ending, it made perfect sense not to invest too much into these areas.
That being said, I would not want to see the main episodic movies being made similar to Rogue One. Official episode movies need more depth and more character development.
I rated TFA 7 - 7.5 / 10.
I rated Rogue One 9 - 10/ 10.
I liked TFA because of the new characters, planets, and special effects. I wasn't a huge fan of the plot, and I thought it was really stupid how Rey beat Kylo Ren.
I liked Rogue One because it showed us the Star Wars universe like we've never seen it before, the space battle was epic, the ground battle was also epic, and the scenes with Vader were awesome. I wasn't a huge fan of the new characters however, and the first hour of the movie was a little slow.
Overall I'd say Rogue One was the better movie. I expect episode VIII will be really good; all of the same new characters (plus more), more planets, great special effects, and hopefully a better story than TFA.

^ Rian Johnson is a great director as well. And can't wait to see Luke. Only problem I'm going to have going into Ep.8 is the whole set up Abrams did. They can't not make it like the OT now because that's the set up Abrams gave us.

I read somewhere that Rey is supposed to be a reincarnation of Anakin, and that the chosen one is reincarnated everytime the force is thrown out of balance. I really hope that's not what they're doing though.
