[Grape Ape]

what was great about it? you cant say.

I don't explain things to shit troll gimmicks.

[ratherbebig]

im gonna watch the trailer again and break it down:

starts out with the boring star wars song.

then some skinny type of plastic stormtroopers are walking.

then hannibal lecter appears.

girl in the lead role. the type of girl with so much teeth she cant completely close her mouth. annoying as hell.

girl is jailed. setting it up for - break outta-jail scene. very original.

talk about a super weapon. again very original.

huge mix of races here. annoying.

then grace jones seems to appear. very weird.

"we have hope! rebellion is built on hope!" this is ophra winfrey-talk.

then a chinese guy is doing some chinese martial art sword-fighting. what a surprise.

"make ten men feel like a hundred!" please. make them stop this shit.

"save the rebellion, save the dream!" jesus.

easily one of the worst trailers ive ever seen. how the fuck can you look forward to that shit?

NO General Hux saved him

that's what I thought cause they said he needs to complete his training into full 'evil'.didn't see him in trailer.

Kylo will be more than ten times more powerful in EP 8, but so will Rey, since she is training with her father Luke Skywalker.

looks absolutely shit.

anybody getting excited over that film/trailer is a moron stuck with a mind of a 7 year old.

Can't wait for the nerdy Star Wars goodness and loved this trailer!   Happily a moron stuck with a mind of a 7 year old!

you didnt see ANYONE from the force awakens in the trailer for Rogue One.....this movie is not VIII it's a stand alone film that takes place right before a new hope......it will end with princess leia receiveing the Death Star plans from the cast of this movie. VIII comes out Dec 2017

[Man of Steel]

The possibility that we get to see a prime, full-on sith Vader lightsabering, forcing chocking, force jumping and force throwing people around like ragdolls is super nerdgasmic!

My question is whether or not it is currently considered canon that Vader can't use force lightning?  I believe that idea arose from EU material that isn't canon anymore.

Vader focused on a different skillpath, he was focusing more on the Telekinetic Perks, like Force Choke etc.

Vader also put more points in the Melee-tree than Darth Sidious.

Sidious on the other hand specialized the Lightning-build.


Originally (spoiler), it was said that Vader would brutally maim, dismember and even decapitate the whole Rogue One-team (everyone killed by Vader) in one way or another, (early interview) but apparently they have done a more mellow version.

Hopefully we will at least see one or two dismemberments.

[CT_Muscle]

ohhh...

We will see Darth Vader in his PRIME!!! 

[Grape Ape]

ohhh...

Yeah, they are releasing a "new" movie every other year that follows the cadence - 7,8,9....in the years between, a stand alone movie like Rogue One.

[Grape Ape]

We will see Darth Vader in his PRIME!!! 

If they can do this, they can definitely give us a video that shows Ronnie 98 vs Dorian 93 to scale.

Yes, a brutal, prime Vader at his most lethal....potentially could be awesome!

[gmflex]

you love everything star wars because youre still a kid. you even react to posts like a little hurt child. you have some growing up to do son you cant go through life watching the deathstar beeing shot down every movie you see.

Point proven 

[Desolate]

Do we have any explanation on why they felt in necessary to add an afro to Forest Whitaker?

I think there are big time jumps in the movie.

This could be an earlier or later scene.

There are three different actresses playing Jyn Erso at different ages.

Maybe she knows him most of her life.

Force lightning would damage his circuitry and his respirator. Once he was badly injured in the duel with Obi-Wan, he could not ever risk using Force lightning.

In fact, it is Force lightning that kills him. Palpatine attacks him with Force lightning when Vader grabs him in Return of the Jedi.

The attack damages his respirator. Basically, he dies from hypoxia.

Luke could've saved him if he got him on the shuttle and attached an external respirator. But it seems that, at that point, Vader wanted it to be over. He wanted to die.

I'm wagering that they decided to change his hair at some point during the production and it's not a time lapse thing.  Time will tell.

Just saw this.

Forest Whitaker told Entertainment Weekly’s Anthony Breznican that we’ll see Saw Gerrera with both looks (shaved and with re-grown hair).

http://www.ew.com/article/2016/08/11/rogue-one-forest-whitaker-saw-gerrera

Pablo Hidalgo reaffirmed Forest’s words at a Star Wars panel in August that we’ll see Saw with both looks in the movie.

Also, there are toys of the character coming with both looks.

Well I guess that's that.   

It's funny that everything but his hair looks exactly the same though.

Well, even in the futuristic world of Star Wars, you can't fix lazy-eye.

Then again, why would an ancient warror such as Saw Gerrera care about such matters, it's enough that he has cybernetic limbs replacing his old ones.

Star Wars was never meant to be futuristic.  Ever notice how they dress in WW2 uniforms, Tatooine they dress like old asians.  It's supposed to reflect current time in a distant universe.
