So who's seen Rogue One?

Oh so now that we get a movie strictly about non-force users, now everyone is on board with them...typical.

Great movie. I have no idea, how could Disney do a movie as terrible as TFA, and one year after give as something as great as R1.

Perhaps Abrams is a shitty director after all.

I enjoyed both TFA and Rogue One, but felt Rogue One offered a better story. Special effects looked well done to me. It kept consistent with the logic of the Star Wars universe and storyline, even in the small things, which was an important feature to me.4

Rogue one was more original than TFA that's for sure

Btw it's just me, or K2 was as good as a character as R2, C3PO and Chewie combined?

Definitely. 👆

His was one of the sadder deaths in the film, imo.

The Rebel alliance got some depth to it. They went from 'yay we're the band of happy rebels fighting the evil Empire' to 'yeah we assassinate people, and kill inconvenient witnesses.' Also gave way more organizational structure to the Rebellion, explains why there is no large Rebel Fleet in Episode IV. Overall R1 gave some much needed exposition of the relatively simple OT.

Spot on. Don't expect Quan to appreciate a well told story though. He just wants to see Khan shooting down Vader, and Palpatine saying "All hail our supreme leader Snoke"

Yeah I was pretty impressed with K2. I thought he was going to be another Jar Jar Binks character but he was very competent in battle yet offered appropriate comic relief when needed.

No Zenwolf I've always had that mindset.

Control yourself. Khan and the Kelvin films have nothing to do with this. You think Into Darkness stunk I found it amazing. The story, the characters, the action, the dialogue, and the special effects were awesome. Rogue One wasn't terrible it just was decent. It failed in major areas though which are important to me not to you.

Not sure which moment was funniest, but that one when they covered Chirrut's head with that bag, and he said that it's pointless coz he's blind was one of them XD
And yes, that was a good humor, not pathetic one, like Jar-Jar's...

It was FANTASTIC

They were never going to get much investment, lol.

I just think it would give their sacrifice more value for the viewer, that's all.

Yeah I actually lol'ed when he said that 😂

K2's sarcastic line of humor suited the movie's tone well but still provided laughs. It also made me very sad when he thanked Jyn for the gun and then went down trying to hold off their enemies.

Most of you seem to share my opinions of it as well, cool. Definitely a great movie, and the digital effects used for those 2 characters were pretty damn amazing. Favorite part has to have been Vader's scene at the end. I have to say I was surprised at how Disney ended the movie, pretty ballsy for a Disney license
.

Nothing too graphic, but I'll admit it certainly had me sinking into my seat.

First half of the movie was very meh, second half was great. The story was much better than TFA's. Second half was better than anything TFA had to offer.

However... as a whole, I honestly probably enjoyed TFA more. It felt more like Star Wars, there was just something missing from Rogue One for me.

Enjoyed the film a lot but it wasn't as good as I thought it would be.

Also, LOL @ CGI Tarkin.

You Lol'ing @ the most advanced and amazing looking photo-realism CGI we've ever had?

That on top of the breath taking space battle should lock this film for best special effects Oscar.
