YepWasn't this the plot of Dark Forces?
$$$$$$$$$$$$I just don't get why a story about how the plans were stolen needed to be made into a prequel to episode 4.
You really need to have someone spell this out for you?I just don't get why a story about how the plans were stolen needed to be made into a prequel to episode 4.
After the BvS thread, are you really that surprised?You really need to have someone spell this out for you?
I'm liking your post only because I love your sig gif. :lol:A part of me thinks that Star Wars Empire at War and Battlefront 2 had some elements similar to what this is based on.

Yes, that and multiple viewings for me... TFA got 5 viewings out of me before I quit lol. I couldn't beat my TPM 6 viewings.IMAX day one for me!
Wait what? Are you kidding me? Three Trailers, Rogue Friday, Toy displays at Target and Walmart and TRU.... have you been living in a cave on Dagobah?Where's the marketing been for this? I forgot it was coming out.
Unless all this stuff came out last week I've seen nothing outside the original trailer. There's been little to no buzz between my friends and co-workers. I seriously forgot this was a thing. I went to Target a couple weeks ago and strolled through the toy aisle and don't remember seeing any Rouge One stuff. Then again my Target here in Dagobah hasn't even put up Christmas stuff yet.Wait what? Are you kidding me?

Totally agree.I saw it yesterday and definitely enjoyed it more than Force Awakens. Didn't seem like it was going out of its way to reference the original trilogy the way Force Awakens constantly did. For the most part cameos and references didn't feel out of place (aside from a couple).
I didn't care much for her either and yeah, K2 was my favorite rogue as well. Like you said though, the action is where this movie shines and it's what made it enjoyable for me. The sets were amazing and I loved how everything wasn't clean and sterile like in TFA. The corridor scene was pretty decent, but I think it missed the true menace of the character. Comics did it a lot better.I love Star Wars but this film was pretty awful. Not sure how it's getting the reviews it is, other than paid/blind fans. Jyn is a vehicle for the story and a terribly written character. I couldn't muster the care for her all the way through the film and hilarious as it sounds, the droid K2 had more life than her. The action is where it's at, but it honestly breaks down each time you move on from a battle, trudging on through a point A to point B movie. That's really what holds it back, is that this story was already set in stone given the preceding movies so much so that you can't really enjoy the journey as you already know the ending. Sadly, my main attraction, the battle for Scarif, was a huge letdown for me as a fan of war machines as well.
Overall, I asked myself the question whether I'd ever wish to view Rogue One again and the answer was an easy "no".
Bit funny considering they take 20 minutes in ESB just to take them out with Snowspeeders and in the end didn't even take them all out. XD In this they had rocket launchers but you also saw the X-Wings get in on the action one wonders why they didn't send them in Hoth at the start since they had them. Could proton torpedo them if nothing else.The AT-AT fight was bullshit IMO. It was the biggest letdown of the film other than the hollow characters. I love war machines and there's no way a few ground troops and x-wings would take down one that fast, let alone a column.
