not only a gritty war movie
it was supposed to be Vader hunting them down and killing off the team one by one
almost a horror movie
we were robbed of star wars kino
its better that it didn't happen because now they figured out the AI JEJ sound board and have a perfect 70s/80s sound to his voice he lost in the decades since they can pump out endlessly
I would say yeah, it was alright.
Like a one off comic, it was very much not a bad bit of star wars. Bit gritty, but whatever, the only issue I had with it was the dumb Tantive V escaping from Vader scene (given the established chain of events of "SW 1977" opening with this ship receiving transmissions and thus starting the whole series, its inclusion in "Rogue One" as an escape pod for the plans is just plain DUMB).
these guys showing up did serve no purpose, but rough people existing in a rough city being angry that you bumped into them isn't exactly ruining your film watching experience.
You're too simple minded to realize that the entire movie was fan service. It's set during the only Star Wars period that the majority of movie goers actually care about.

You should format your posts as people on Cinemaphile have done for nearly 2 decades. It Drives them nuts.
Say you wanted to outline your post for the clarity of the reader scanning through a thread, the simple fact that you've done this drives them into a fury. Apparently people on redd.it also write comments with structure.
from left to right... >looking down man, juan cholo, the guy who got mind raped by a nightmarish looking thing, Jyn Erso, guy in the background, face mcshooty and ip man.
Andor and Erso, the rest are literal whos and one of the biggest problems of this movie.
Biggest issue with rogue one imo is its shitty characters, followed closely by forced nostalgia-bait cameos (the cgi shit was particularly egregious). There's also some really bad dialogue (most notable in my mind, the rebel h1 shit), and the entire film is filled with absolutely nonsensical action sequences.
That said I do think the movie very well captured the look and atmosphere of the OT. Even some of the actors they chose to play side characters look like they would have fit right into the first movie. Too bad overall its just not good.
Here's a secret, remembering names is just decided by how many times their names are repeated in the movie.
ANH, for example, says Luke's name constantly.
They never explained it in the OT, you don’t know what a retcon is
>many Bothans died to bring us this information >ACKTUALLY, THIS RAG TAG GROUP OF MINORITIES LED BY A STRONK WOMAN DIED TO BRING IT TO US
The Bothans stole the plans you retarded casual
It is somewhat of a retcon, but it ties with the themes of the OT. The Rogue One guys, as we remember, aren't even in the Rebel Alliance, Jyn fucking hates those guys, they suck.
The story of Rogue One is one of appropriation, the liberal rebels steals the victory, the fruit of Rogue One's labour and will make their own story of how they were the heroes all along, while covering up their faults.
This is, of course, already the implicit story of star wars. It's how the droids and Chewbacca don't get medals at the end of ANH while they do an homage to Adolf Hitler, why we ignore that the rebels didn't win against the empire and palpatine, it was the Ewoks and Vader respectively..
Rogue One did the one simple thing all sci-fi movies from the past two decades forgot for some reason: It made the world feel lived in. With tech and equipment that seems used and old, like how we use tech in real life. It's such a simple little thing and it makes all the difference.
that sequence was pretty humorous with the sheer stupidity of it all. it really caught me off guard. the star destroyer opening up another star destroyer like a cartoon can of beans was just icing on the cake
It's just kinda shit when they introduce a novel ship into a battle for the first time, only to then suddenly need their novel ability.
"Oh by the way, we've never shown these before, but this is a ship that is designed to physically push other ships around in space, kinda like a tug boat or something. ... Oh what the fuck, total coincidence, but we suddenly have a situation where we need to push one enemy ship into another! Fuck, good thing we happened to bring the Hammerhead ship to this one specific battle, and then never see them again!"
I mean, they destroyed the ship in the process, right? So why not just use a more regular corvette that we're familiar with? You could show it's front crushing in a bit, the structure buckling, etc, to imply that they know it's a heroic sacrifice. And it wouldn't feel as artificial as the above.
But if they had used a Corellian Corvette it would have actually made sense and been an ironic juxtaposition to it being chased and defeated by a Star Destroyer in A New Hope. And it also would have been sideways thus confusing the modern audience so they went with the Hammerhead instead.
If that was good (it was the only Nu wars shit I ever saw) then you're all fucking trannies for even wasting your time with the movies and so on.
Dumb consumers, all the memes against you were right.
Andor is the only good thing to come out of Disney Wars. People need to stop pretending that Andor being great somehow retroactively fixed the disaster that was Rogue One.
Rogue One is dogshit and is the perfect litmus test to tell if someone actually has any taste in film or if they just like shitty fan service. God the dialogue in this film is fucking atrocious. Remember the scene where the girl makes that terrible speech that sounds like a 14 year girl old trying to sound strong? No of course you don’t because you only remember the last 30 seconds of the film.
is it the I rebel speech? yeah, rewrites to dialog wouldn't have been a bad thing. However, the elements of an actually decent star wars picture existed in this film, which can't be said for the fuck off trilogy
Yes.
mmm bunny
Andor is surprisingly good too.
>space spikkkz
>oppressed by evil whitey
Yikes. Its time to go bakkk to squatemala, paco.
it was terrible though. all people remember is vader scene for 30 seconds at end.
>supposed to be gritty war movie

I heard disney paid JEJ millions to use his voice forever
that is insane
Not really. James Earl Jones voice rights are worth that kind of money, especially to a company the size of Disney.
The first time star wars felt like star WARS
Only time I feel asleep watching a movie in a theater was Rouge One
yeah you probably watched a different movie, because it's called Rogue One
you must be old or something. that said, in the comfort of my own home I did fall asleep watching, "crouching tiger, hidden dragon"
I was 23 when it came out, it's boring and all the characters are meaningless
Not enough bang wham and zoom for brainlets like you
Nothing good came out of Nu Wars.
Nothing.
>deus ex machina: the movie
>good
>Deus ex machina
>Everybody dies
???
I would say yeah, it was alright.

No, Reddit One was fucking garbage, with retard fan service, and unnecessary reconning of the Death Star plan story from the OT
these guys showing up did serve no purpose, but rough people existing in a rough city being angry that you bumped into them isn't exactly ruining your film watching experience.
I didn't say that it ruined the movie, I said it was retard fan service.
it would have been less so if the camera didn't focus on them, it's a small thing to gripe about, how about the stupid fembot, that's gripe worthy
You're too simple minded to realize that the entire movie was fan service. It's set during the only Star Wars period that the majority of movie goers actually care about.
>oh look blue milk!
>oh look those cantina mean guys!
>oh look they're on this desert planet that's totally not Tatooine
Okay pal, fuck you.
I forgot that Anslow was in A New Hope. Nice!
They never explained it in the OT, you don’t know what a retcon is
>many Bothans died to bring us this information
>ACKTUALLY, THIS RAG TAG GROUP OF MINORITIES LED BY A STRONK WOMAN DIED TO BRING IT TO US
The Bothans stole the plans you retarded casual
That was the second death star you morons. Way to fall into my trap.
You're right, however they did create an annoying retcon situation that creates immense plot holes for the opening scenes of "Star Wars"
>annoying retcon situation
Par for the course with Star Wars.
>set up a great story of how the rebels stole the death star plans
>add in Han Solo's psycho ex was part of the raid, setting up how Han distrusts women who participate in the rebellion
>decide that shit was gay and make it all some odd love letter from a dad to his daughter to screw over a tarkin standin, where the dad would have no idea the rebellion would ever work with his daughter and his daugher would ever be the one to physically steal the plans
Why do you retards constantly think about reddit?
Do you also constantly think about guys and trannies?
You should format your posts as people on Cinemaphile have done for nearly 2 decades. It Drives them nuts.

bagged and tagged the triggered plebbitor
It was only retconned if your a chad.
Name a SINGLE one of these characters. you can't
from left to right, "taco supreme," "goggles explodes," "Angelica Brolee," "the last Samurai," and last but not least, "Tibetan Zatoichi"
Cassian Andor, Jyn Erso
from left to right...
>looking down man, juan cholo, the guy who got mind raped by a nightmarish looking thing, Jyn Erso, guy in the background, face mcshooty and ip man.
I think looking down man was just a literally "gone in one scene" background character, but don't quote me
>Ah yes, Chirrut Îmwe, and his trusty sidekick, Baze Malbus. They were good friends.
I can't. None of them was memorable.
I can't but then I can't really name any of the 7 samurai either.
andor
who
No, Andor was.
Andor and Erso, the rest are literal whos and one of the biggest problems of this movie.

Forced meme
Boody Rook, Cassian Andor, Jyn Erso, Baz Malbus and Chirut Imwee
Now name the new characters from the force awakens.
BLIND SAMURAI? RACIST!
>Smee, Mai Men, Doctora Pavel y Leer, Buttom Lee, Wang Oh-yu
I liked the milk drinking
>ON PROGRAM

>Was Rogue One the only good thing that came out of nu Wars?
that sequence was pretty humorous with the sheer stupidity of it all. it really caught me off guard. the star destroyer opening up another star destroyer like a cartoon can of beans was just icing on the cake
is that from clone wars?
I wish they'd used a larger ship, but ramming a vessel like an old naval battle was something Lucas would've done.
it was done for such a dumb reason
It's just kinda shit when they introduce a novel ship into a battle for the first time, only to then suddenly need their novel ability.
"Oh by the way, we've never shown these before, but this is a ship that is designed to physically push other ships around in space, kinda like a tug boat or something. ...

Lmao you are such a moron
no u
No. All nu wars is gay shit
If that was good (it was the only Nu wars shit I ever saw) then you're all fucking trannies for even wasting your time with the movies and so on.
Dumb consumers, all the memes against you were right.
Andor is the only good thing to come out of Disney Wars. People need to stop pretending that Andor being great somehow retroactively fixed the disaster that was Rogue One.
Reminder all nu wars is gay shit
most of that film was unwatchable
No because Rogue One sucked balls.
No.
It was fucking garbage with some minor redeeming qualities that baited redditors into thinking it was acutally good.
Andor was legit kino tho.
they knew it was trash so they packed the ending with memba berries to sweeten it
No, it also gave us The Last Jedi.
Rogue One is dogshit and is the perfect litmus test to tell if someone actually has any taste in film or if they just like shitty fan service. God the dialogue in this film is fucking atrocious.

andor is better
https://vocaroo.com/13cVykobml8D
Holy shit is this an AI or just a really good impersonator?
Dumb fuck reddit moron
Okay is it an AI voice like the Jordan Peterson one that got deleted or an impression?
Are there actually barnacles on the ATST foot? Are they standing in the water when not needed?
looks like sand and bits of moss/ plant matter from anything it might have walked through
I'm not even mad over barnacles. It's a logical means to convey the tropical planet aspect. But, yeah, it could just me some mudd.
Rogue one felt like a kino boomer WW2 movie so I liked it, 6/10
Yes, I also liked Solo and The Mandalorian.
Reminder all nu wars is gay shit
rogue one is trash
andor is good (in the middle, the end kinda falls off)
Reminder all nu wars is gay shit
Star Wars Rebels was OK
Don't think an official model was ever made for it.
They made one for the X-Wing miniatures game. Too bad the game sucks now.
It wasn't good.
It was alright
Some of the shorts from Visions have been the best nu wars.
only the last half where all the main cast die and vader appears
