What made this movie be decent compared to the other nu wars movies...

Are you serious? Main character was an empty shell of a "strong female character," who never expresses any agency. Supporting dude is "pantone 35820 - Mysterious Brown." The robot (because there has to be a robot) does the whole "the odds are bad" joke, but this time he's depressed about it; how clever. They even included one of the most cliche and insulting blind-monk characters I've ever scene, making a complete waste of Donnie Yen. You couldn't think of a less original plot if you tried. I was so mad after the movie finished that I immediately got in my car and drove for an hour until I came to some anceint Native American ruins where I watched the sun set, just to find any hope in human civilization. Rogue One was the end of Modern Western civilization. If things seem strange now, it's because people are still trying to figure out what the fuck happened.

I cannot name any of those characters. Pretty bad for a star wars movie. No idea what their names were or even really what they do.

The movie wasn't decent. It was shit. But it was slightly less shit than the others, for the simple fact that IT ACTUALLY HAD A FUCKING PLOT. Seems like that's kind of key to a movie not being shit. Someone should tell KK.

felt like it actually took place in the universe as a natural continuity of it.

Took itself seriously instead of sort of meta-self referential winks to the audience

>tfw the actor on the right is a piece of shit who didn't want to go to SW Celebrations to meet the fans so he invented a story about being detained by TSA agents for 48 hours
One time in an interview during the Rogue One press tour he said that Hollywood should hire more arabs in movies because if they don't then more kids will join ISIS.

It was okay, certainly better than the sequel garbage but ultimately an unnecessary movie.

/get/ the truth

I do too. That entire third act felt like a tedious video game sequence.

Actually feels like it fits into the Star Wars universe. Also has a Kino soundtrack.

Good action scenes and some decent stuff for Tarkin and Vader that OTfags can wank to, that's pretty much it.

I'm not a SW fan, so I didn't find any flaw on it. I went expecting an action movie with explosions and lasers and that's what I got. The action was good, and the few Darth Vader scenes were great,

I liked it more than the other sw movies
Then again I'm not a manchild so that may be the reason

The last scene with Vader is the best SW scene with lightsabers by far. Otherwise it was fine, didn’t ruin anything like the sequels do.

>fans cream themselves watching Vader horribly murder Rebel scum
>Kylo Ren, Darth Vader and Stormtrooper toys always sell best
Why doesn't Disney try to milk the Empire instead of keep shilling Rebels and Resistance in everything they do?

The guy who looks like Andrew Yang was pretty good

The Vader in the hallway sequence also feels like it helps bridge the prequel and the original trilogies together as you've got Darth Vader from the original trilogy wielding his lightsaber and cutting down an army of people effortlessly they way Anakin did in the prequels. The Darth Vader in Rogue One certainly felt like an evolution of the character from Revenge of the Sith.

Change in location is what good blockbusters have. Shitty blockbusters remain in the same location the whole movie.

It was also a good way of showing how overpowered Vader is without the need of having him do ridiculous stuff like Sheev spins or forcethrowing spaceships at people.

It wasn't very good though.

there was a ploy

It's something that's very particular to Gareth's visual style, he makes things look really huge. I can't pinpoint how, but it can't be easy to achieve seeing that nobody else even tries.

It had great visuals (some of which didn't even make it into the movie duh), but characters were super dull. Still better than main trilogy, at least they tried something different.

>tfw sheev finally appears in IX and the first thing he does is the spin
It wouldn’t save the sequel trilogy, but it would be a good scene.

Fun self contained story that wraps itself up by the end and leads into the original trilogy, minimal agenda pushing, great visual designs and special effects, characters aren't shit.

I want to feed her carrots

This is true. Sequel Trilogy went out of it's way to cast ugly weirdos.

Same. Supposedly Tony Gilroy saved the film with rewrites/reshoots, and it was meh, so the original cut must have been flaming garbage

I'm convinced the sequel trilogy was a checklist of diversity, political messages and merchandising requirements that some poor bastard had one weekend to attempt to write a plot around.

the battle on the beach felt like a war.
the bad guys were not too incompetent and had a threat to their presence

Lower stakes, it's not part of the "proper" saga, so you can just have fun and make a movie. Like the third-place match at the World Cup, for those who can derive pleasure from watching soccer: "who gives a fuck, let's just have some fun." Even a good (although jewish) blogger has commented accurately on how Solo was enjoyable, I had very similar feelings about Rogue One (I personally prefer Rogue One, but the point is the same):

lionoftheblogosphere.wordpress.com/2019/07/14/solo-a-star-wars-story/

Rogue One was the first time I actually enjoyed myself a bit watching a Star Wars flick in the theater since the 1997 OT theatrical re-release. The blogger I cite above clearly felt the same thing with Solo.

The new flicks at least try to do the right thing (re-bottle the old) but fail in their own ways. But still they improve on the prequels, which remain the nadir that dumb zoomers can't see.

The most important thing I have to say in this post is this: regardless of individual flicks, thus far, the "eras" of Star Wars can be strictly ordered in terms of quality: OT > the recent, fun "side flicks" > the new trilogy flicks >>>>>>>>>>>(maxing out the 2000 character limit for improved accuracy)>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> PT

t. absolutely correct boomer who has seen every Star Wars flick in the theater.

I'm sorry but the sequel trilogy is not better than the prequels. The prequels were shit, but the new political feminist bullshit is far worse.

how much do you think 9 is going to bomb? looking at the spoilerboard is makings it seem optimistic to hope for a mediocre movie

Rogue One is the only Nu-wars that actually understands star wars at a fundamental level

Boomer/Gen Xer thought process:

>TIE Fighters and X-Wings!
>Han and Chewie!
>Superweapon like the Death Star!
>Dogfights!
>Slow lightsaber battles!
>A good villain like Palpatine!
>I can wait to take muh kids to see these movies! It’ll be like reliving muh childhood!
>Thank you Disney!

I just want a slower pace star wars movie that's almost entirely about the Empire and follows their POV, with little to no rebel shit. They're the only interesting thing about the movies for fucks sake

>decent

Because it was only slightly politicized, didn't try to retroactively fuck up the continuity, and offered a few cool set designs.

It was complete shit but slightly more sufferable than the other movies. It still insults your intelligence, it still fails conceptually and in execution, and it's still unwatchable garbage.

Blue leader's presence in particular is probably the most 'star warsy' thing about the film for me. That sort of understated, quietly heroic soldier character is common in the star wars films, but you would pretty much never see one in get any screen time in the nu trilogy.

That's what Disney wants you to believe but they just made the movie more sterile and "safe" for the audience and ruined the ending by cutting out battle on the beach

What actually happened was that they tried to sneak a proper war film under Disney's nose and KK freaked out, fired Edwards and made Gilroy add more adventure elements to it. The ludicrous thing is that Gilroy claims that he added additional characterization and backstory for the central cast... but it's like, what fucking characterization?

Fucking this, remember that teaser trailer that leaked that had the frantic radio chatter of Rebels panicking and it sounding like they were having their shit kicked in? It's actually a miracle Kennedy and Disney let the protagonists die in the final cut.

it was meant to be a war movie and it did that pretty well, it delivered what it promised apart from the poorly edited first 30 minutes or so. the special effects were also very good

Now I have to find that.

the rebels actually used tactics and had a plan and didn't just rely on the magic of friendship to win.

Once you establish a hyperspace ram you have to start asking questions about why nobody thought to do it before

Once you establish star destroyers entering the atmosphere you have to start asking questions about why nobody thought to do it before

The story works and none of the characters are stupidly strong for no reason.

It's based on nostalgia but doesn't rely on it like TFA and TLJ do. Not to mention it doesn't undermine major characters like TLJ does with luke.

You're here.

R1 didn't overstay it's welcome, it did the thing it was sent out to do and that was it. It didn't let itself linger or try to be a game changer. The only genuine unique bit it did was that it showed that there was possibly people out in the galaxy that were sensitive to the Force that weren't exclusively Jedi or Sith. I kinda' dug that, is that ever explored in the EU?

Attached: tos charlie x1.jpg (694x530, 86K)

Yes, the EU several times had people who were force sensitive but not Jedi grade, and sometimes happy or sad about that. For example, the Dark Academy from the Young Jedi Knight books picked up basically anyone who was force sensitive, such that it was a big deal when they picked up a kid who actually had some good aptitude. There were also various factions of force users who had opted out of the Jedi/Sith dichotomy, like the Fallanassi.

What would someone have to do to be sentenced to such a cruel task, though?

Maybe because about 20% of the movie is copied straight from ANH, including the central premise, and there's absolutely nothing original about it. It's like a cancer tumor latched onto a decent movie, which kind of creates the illusion that a half of it is decent too, but that's only because it has nothing like a personality of its own and can't survive if cut off from the host body.

The cast is bland and undeveloped. The protagonist goes from "I don't give a fuck about anything" rebel to "WE HAVE TO KILL OURSELVES FOR THE GALAXY" in the span of 15 minutes, and the shift is grating. CGI'd Tarkin is ridiculous. Darth Vader's cheap cameo is blatant fanservice and only managed to instill a strong fan film vibe. I remember fuckall about the rest.

The only saving grace is the ending, which ensures there's never going to be a sequel, because by this point, only killing off the whole cast can stop Disney from going through with it.

Apparently you are somewhere that is refreshingly free of hipsters.

ALL OF THAT IS A good thing

How do actresses like Felicity manage to look good even at mid 30s? Is it just crazy editing/makeup skills by the team? Or is she a vampire or something? I dont get it

>What made this movie be decent compared to the other nu wars movies?

It was specifically tailored for the Space TV demographic.

And as Rogue One proves, it doesn't work to make movies by checklist, even if the checklist panders to lots of plebs (You). The movie still has to be conceived well and executed well, which R1 wasn't.

Is that the Hand of Judgement behind her?

But I didn't even get to the EU!

>star wars is supposed to be fun and silly not "le serious mature movie for big boys like me"

Star Wars isn't supposed to be anything. It's an empty nothing and has been from the very beginning. I guess you'd be right if it didn't turn to shit after the second movie.

>its implied that he's atleast a LITTLE bit force sensitive
He's clearly extremely force sensitive, it's just not in the area of force pull etc.
It's clear that their order recruits sensitives and trained the precognitive and sensory parts of force training, just not the brute force parts of it.

Those are just troopers, with blaster scoring on their armour.

>Those are just troopers
Do you know know who the Hand of Judgement are?

It was wholly a fanservice movie, which is "alright". Fanserivce can only just be "alright". It could have been awful, but they did the best they could with it, and the best you can possible do with fanservice is alright and so it was.

Better than shitty non-fanservice movies which the other nuWars movies are.

I meant, "just random troopers".
But actually I think you're right, they were questioned by Vader with Mara covering for them so that's probably the scene depicted.

Rogue One is the only decent Mouse Wars film because Trump didn't win the election when the film had finished its production. That's it. Kathy doubled down on woke garbage in Mouse Wars after Trump won the election.

it amazes me that no one from the production, not even some lowly coffee-getting assistant, has leaked details about what really happened with this movie. disney must really be terrifying

The main bitch in this is probably the most boring character of all time, it's like they wanted an infallible female hero so bad they made her a wooden board
Even Rey is more interesting

This, plus the only reason to watch this anyway is for the Vader scene at the very end, which you can watch on youtube.

Tells you a lot about the faith Disney has in these movies that in every mother fucking film they make they have to include a character from the original trilogy for fan service and to keep the SW fags coming.

>Didn't retroactively ruin major characters/plot points
Destruction of the Death Star was allowed thanks to a strong female and her non-white team, Luke Skywalker would have never did what he did without them.

The last 30-40 minutes is the most Star Wars-y thing in years, and in some ways, felt more like a successor to the OT than TFA, or even the PT.

Solo doesn't really deserve the shit it gets either. Even the annoying fembot and forced black female character get fucking killed.

Solo would very likely get shit on less if it didn't come after The Last Jedi and didn't have the "Han... Solo" bit in it. I enjoyed it for what it was and was honestly a bit pissed off that the sequel setups with Darth Maul and Jabba the Hutt won't get followed up on because Kathleen Kennedy and Rian Johnson a shits.

>they catch up to the Tantive IV
>Storm Troopers blast their way into the ship in a battle with rebel troops
>after a few minutes, Vader casually strolls in and starts barking orders about finding the plans
If he had gone full killer Jedi mode on the Tantive IV, the plans wouldn't have escaped again.
How in the fuck did he go from super rage mode to cool and casual in the span of 3 minutes?

From what I've heard the bad guy (Krennic) wasn't written as a moustache twirling villain originally and Vader was the one who killed the heroes one by one (also none of them looked like a diversity check list and the two asian guys weren't fags).

So would you not Rey?

I hope that cunt od's soon

Cinematography/visuals/aesthetic as fuck. Also the tone is more old school Star Wars

Yes they are diversity jewish propaganda but at least R1 was fun towards the end

It was utter fucking garbage you brain dead reddit nigger.

why is it so difficult for people to use then and than properly? focus your big brain power on learning english before wasting all your energy critiquing sci fi flicks, you FUCKING NERD

What are some essential bunny kinos?

Ending wasn't a copout
It has the aesthetic of the original trilogy
Compelling characters

>decent
lol.
The film has the same pros as Solo: it doesn't revolve around a blackhole of charisma with no motivation that everyone loves. And on top of that, since it's literally using OT aesthetics, everything doesn't feel like a cheaper knock-off of what we remember

Do we have a breakdown on what got changed? I heard it was a lot more than initially thought

>It was also a good way of showing how overpowered Vader is without the need of having him do ridiculous stuff like Sheev spins or forcethrowing spaceships at people.
B-but Rian said that the only way to have Luke be cool would be if he was flipping around the screen and destroying AT-ATs!

This is all I know.

>It has the aesthetic of the original trilogy
I think this is key, because of the setting they had to use the god tier Imperial aesthetic that everyone loves and not the store brand shitty version Disney uses for the First Order.

Also having the main villain be an angry middle manager seething about the credit for the Death Star being taken by Tarkin was pretty interesting. Especially compared to the villains in the sequels.

Nothing, it was fucking boring as shit with a slew of shitskins

It's a fucking flick for retarded plebs who like John Wick and Mad Max Fury Road shit

>Main character had an arc
Barely. What's there is really badly executed.

>decent

lelno

That was always the case you fucking brailet.

That's still a thing that exists?

The Vader scene was literal capeshit, and you're a literal virgin.

To me it feels like RO could have been one of the best Star Wars movies if it was longer, had more character development, Krannic was given more spotlight and the last battle would have been more brutal.

Yeah you should see them all defending israelis savoir trump every day on there, it's a cringefest

There's literally one cut, dipshit. Close up on her face to wideshot of them hugging. Do you even know what editing is?

It's literally meant to be a side story about disposable characters though

They matched the Rebels and Imperials looking like 1970s Working UK actors who just come from the pub and had a pint and a packet of fags for lunch. Like the OT had.

>defending rogue shit

You could've at least picked a character people actually remember the name of, not this CGI abomination.

you can enjoy a movie without seeing those characters again in 50 other movies, you know

>What actually happened was that they tried to sneak a proper war film under Disney's nose and KK freaked out
Did you not see the first few minutes of The Last Jedi? I know all you virgins love shitting on New Star Wars, but there's been more scenes in the new movies that actually feel like war movies than the originals and prequels combined.

>the characters are supposed to be shit!
You can have a story where everyone dies at the end without them being cardboard cutouts.

But user, he spikes the camera, could have fix in post.

see

The Nigress from the Disney park stole her Tonfa blasters

user 80% of the people on the internet talking about films are legitamtely mouthbreathing faggot retards who don't have any proper critiques.

They hate on the last jedi and its good.

I enjoyed R1 more than any Star Wars movie since Jedi, and that hallway scene was easily the worst part of the whole movie

Solo is the best of disney wars. Fact

You know what's funny, I recently played the Battlefront 2 (2005) single player campaign and there was a mission where you had to stop a rebel Mon Calamari Cruiser from hyperjumping through a Star Destroyer.

It's the worst one in the entire series, Ron

No you don't faggot, they are fucking fantasy movies you god damn nerd

Rian Johnson did nothing wrong

From what I remember, they aren't actually planning to hyperspace ram the Star Destroyer, it's them jumping to hyperspace to escape you're trying to prevent. They just happen to have the models aimed at each other because they were too lazy to change the default way the ships were mapped to that space arena

The Imperial officer seems to say though that they are going to fly straight through them?

>they are fucking fantasy movies you god damn nerd

It had old style storm troopers. It also had red, gold and blue leader.

This is a black leader.

It’s liked because krennic did literally nothing wrong.

The plot of the movie was pretty much “do you know how many brown people had to die for your lily white lie?”

The Last Jedi has better:
>directing
>cinematography
>acting
>effects
>tone
>atmosphere
>sound editing
>editing
>composing
>cast

>kills the scientists as punishment for urso leaking

That was dumb as hell

Yeah he's a right cunt now. And he was the lead in 4 Lions.

I think it's really brave how Kathleen decided to make the mainline entries these experimental films about progressivism while making the spin-offs retreads of the classic.
It's just a shame that the incel fanbase was too sexist to watch the films they'd like

If it's anything like his Godzilla movie, it's probably complete pretentious ass.

Donnie Yen? I checked out of the movie when they did the whole thing with the blind guy with a stick effortlessly knocking out six stormtroopers with kung-fu. It seemed absurd when we know Jedi masters have been killed by troopers. This movie had the opportunity to make the Empire seem threatening again, and it failed miserably. People only like it for the fanservice moments.

It was dumb, be he wasn’t wrong for doing it. Rebels would have killed them anyway.

Well whaddya know?

>it ain't me starts playing

Why didn't they just hyperspace ram the star destroyer, though?

Killing the scientists was just good policy. He made sure none of them would leak or sell information.

Why didn't they just hyperspace ram the Death Star?

Why didn’t they just hyperspace ram the death star for that matter?

Or why didn’t palpatine just hyperspace ram the jedi temple in the prequels? Nobody would even know who did it.

You're legitimately mentally ill. Rogue One just adds the idea that the exhaust port flaw was an intentional design to sabotage the whole thing and adds an explanation for how the Rebellion got their hands on the plans. It gives Luke something explicable to shoot at.

>the exhaust port flaw was an intentional design
Thanks for reminding me why I really hated this movie.
This is where the Assassination of Luke Skywalker by the Coward Rian Johnson really began.

You don't know Dexter Jettster?

uhh, but in the movie the exhaust port is never mentioned. It's said the core is built to easily explode if you damage it.

The action and that's it

Shit plot. Shit characters. Shit everything.

But space battle was everything it needs to be.

I don't think so. Gareth Edwards is a real Star Wars fan (like Colin Trevorrow) and he wanted to make a war movie set in Star Wars while respecting the style of the OT. KK hated it and ordered the script to be changed.

The thing I will say, both Rogue One and Solo feel like what you would want from the spin-offs.
They extend the lore, bring in new locations and characters, but feel very "star wars" as well. This doesnt apply apply to the ST for some reason...

Hidden Figures

it was garbage, just not as bad as the rest. Still bad.
>movie jumps between three planets in the first welve minutes

>Even if the geonosians designed it during the clone wars
Palpatine genocided the Geonesians before he finished the super laser. Not sure why that happened though. There are a lot of loose ends from the Clone Wars show.

No scene has ever done a better job of restoring a character to his former glory than this fucking scene right here.

The prequels turned Vader into a whiny faggot, and this scene returned Vader to the glory he had in the original trilogy.

ROGUE ONE IS THE ONE TRUE STAR WARS PREQUEL.

Attached: RogueOne_HP-1.jpg (1600x1120, 262K)

No it doesn't. The exhaust port as a flaw was an EU idea, as a fudge by the designer Bevel Lemelisk. Rogue One instead says that Galen built a flaw into the reactor that rendered it vulnerable to attack.

Also, there are over a dozen other small exhaust ports arrayed around what might be called the Arctic Circle of the Death Star and a giant one centered on the north pole. The one in the film is simply the one they decided to focus on.

>better acting, story, set pieces, practical effects, cg than prequels by a large margin
>hmmm le EP 3 is still le best star wars movie tho
Zoomers need to all be gassed and die.

where do you live, 2009?

the carnage of the clone wars severely damaged economic production across the galaxy. even if they had they superlaser design the original productive capacity to build one had been long destroyed. urso was brought in as a logistics expert to make the death star work with the what resources the empire had left

This. And the Darth Vader scene us now one of the most iconic in Star Wars. Something nothing else in nuWars can claim

Are fucking crazy?
That movie SUCKED major ass, the only parts that can be saved is the space battles and nothing more...
Why? because there is already a canon(Lucas canon) about how it way the stealing of the plans, the design was never a flaw left by some traitor.
The plans were paid with lots of lives and not a bunch of woke assholes led by a rebel "stronk wahman".
I'll give the names of those involve in the recovery of the plans inside the Tantive IV: C3PO and R2D2, R2 was at the receiving end of the antenna and 3PO was pretending to help fixing the antenna.
The Tantive got the info from another ship that was pursued by an ISD, the Devastator, the ISD monitored that the Tantive got the transmission and shot her, they made an emergency jump and Tatooine was the only place that Leia had in mind once the ISD got involved and the rest is the First Film.
