OK, so, yeah, Rogue One tonight… Hope it’s better than the last one! It's a pretty straight forward stand alone edition. It does its job pretty well. And it brings back Vader without tarnishing his image!!!

It's a very flawed but strangely compelling movie. It manages to accommodate the time period it plays in and yet manages to add by introducing new designs, world building and characters. It also lends stakes and gravitas to the civil war conflict. I had said you will probably hate it, yet if the dark heavies of Empire and Sith are amongst your favorites you might find an companion piece. 7.5 /10 the best of Disney's as a Sith-ian absolute.

Empire and Sith were indeed my favorites of the series so far–so hoping it’s in the same vein!

Also, it has a nice (non-Williams ) soundtrack, check out the delicious little bad guy march Film detective challenge: the final Vader appearance rips a plot hole into the continuity-fabric of the beginning of the original film. It's hard to spot for the casual fan and layman, but maybe you detect it.

So when’s the showtime?

Post by Nalkarj on Nov 30, 2018 23:00:18 GMT
Maybe in about an hour or so.

Add a few extra minutes to that showtime.

Do I need to round up the usual suspects, or are they here?

I did check out some of the CGI Cushing clips. I won't say anything about it yet, so as not to influence your opinion.

Is the little girl supposed to be Rey?

I’m really liking the way this is shot so far, though it doesn’t feel much like a Star Wars movie (yet?). The family-members are all better actors than Darth Horseface and his cronies, too, and this military officer isn’t overplaying his part.
