The early rumor is that Felicity Jones is Luke Skywalker's wife who is dead by The Force Awakens.

This most likely makes her Rey's (Daisy Ridley) mother.

The teaser shows that we're getting Mon Mothma. By the way, it is the same actress that Lucas hired for Episode III and then stupidly cut out her scenes.

They can be seen on the Episode III DVD.

I'll look for them online.

I'm expecting Bail Organa. Will Jimmy Smits came back and reprise the role?

The rumor is that Palpatine will be back. Ian McDiarmid is still with us and there was a recent article where he expressed interest.

The problem is Tarkin. The great Peter Cushing has been gone for many years.

One of the rumors is that old footage will be used to have a few scenes where he appears in hologram form.

They can then move his mouth with CGI and hire a voice actor that sounds like him.

This movie looks fucking awful. 

Nothing like a 112 lb pound little girl "kicking ass" being the hero.  ::)  And that sleepy-eyed soul brother sucks too.  This looks even gayer than that shitty episode 7.

At least it should make more than 40 dollars in china this time since they put a chinaman in this one.

Following up the awe-inspiring teaser trailer for Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, Lucasfilm has revealed a teaser poster for the film.

The poster is simple but powerful, featuring Rogue One logo and a release month at the bottom, similar to the first poster for Star Wars: The Force Awakens.

A notable addition to this poster is the tagline "A rebellion built on hope" near the top.

We are definitely getting some Darth Vader. 8)

Quote
Following the release of the Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, further speculation has arisen about the film. Today, Flickering Myth have reported that Spencer Wilding will don the iconic costume of Darth Vader.

For people concerned about the lack of knowledge surrounding this actor, there is no doubt he would fit the bill. He stands at 6 ft 7 inches tall, which is two inches taller than the original don, David Prowse.

According to Flickering Myth, Wilding has been performing lines on set, but he will not be voicing Darth Vader in the final version of the movie. James Earl Jones has agreed to reprise his role as Darth Vader in the upcoming Rogue One: A Star Wars Story.

Spencer Wilding is a film actor who has played a diverse range of creatures and aliens in iconic film and TV franchises. He played a number of aliens in  Doctor Who, he has also depicted a White Walker in Game of Thrones. His most notable role was his appearance in the 2014 film Guardians of the Galaxy, in which he played a prison guard he stole Peter Quill's Walkman.

There was a rumor that Ian McDiarmid was interested in playing Emperor Palpatine if needed.

At this time, Bail Organa is obviously alive as this is movie takes places slightly before the Death Star destroys his planet Alderaan.

One has to figure that Jimmy Smits would probably be willing to come back.

Big parts are not even necessary for characters like Palpatine, Mothma, Organa, etc.

More Details Have Been Revealed About Those Rogue One Reshoots.

Quote
Rogue One: A Star Wars Story won’t be released for almost seven months, and yet it’s already the talk of fans everywhere. Today, lots of that talk was about a New York Post article saying the film was “in crisis” and needed “expensive reshoots.” A new report now adds some much-needed detail to those claims.

According to The Hollywood Reporter, the reshoots are definitely happening. However, the reason is much more specific. “The move is happening after execs screened the movie and felt it was tonally off with what a ‘classic’ Star Wars movie should feel like,” the article says. “The goal of the reshoots will be to lighten the mood, bring some levity into the story and restore a sense of fun to the adventure.”

In addition, the report says “that while [director Gareth] Edwards’ first cut was a solid showing, it didn’t measure up to the bar set in terms of four-quadrant appeal. ‘Anything less than extraordinary won’t do,’ says a studio insider.”

Deadline also has a report with a similar theme. “According to sources, the first cut was lacking the edge that Force Awakens had, and the story needs to jell. The film’s December 16 release date will not be affected.”

It certainly sounds like, while Rogue One may not exactly be “in crisis,” the Post wasn’t inaccurate in reporting the film has issues. Which it should. If the movie was ready in May, they would’ve scheduled it for summer. It’s being released in December to give the filmmakers time to get it right. A rough cut this early, warts and all, means Edwards is working hard.

These days, just about every big movie schedules reshoots in the post-production schedule to make tweaks and changes. Some reports say The Force Awakens did reshoots mere weeks before release. Because of that, many believed the Post report was erroneously mixing standard reshoots up with something grander. Now, with this Hollywood Reporter story, it’s certain that’s not the case. If the tone of Edwards’ film didn’t match what Star Wars is all about, that most likely means there’s a problem that needs fixing. And now they can fix it.

Then again, one of the most exciting things about Rogue One was the possibility of a film that didn’t feel like a cookie-cutter Star Wars movie. Audiences want a sense of adventure, sure, but something darker and different could also be welcome. However, as the Hollywood Reporter source points out “This takes place just before A New Hope and leads up to the 10 minutes before that classic films begins. You have to match the tone.”

No matter what the case, it’s certain Rogue One will be better because of these reshoots. The movie isn’t the movie until it’s released.

Some better news.

Report: What's Going on With the 'Rogue One' Reshoots?

http://www.starwarsunderworld.com/2016/06/report-whats-going-on-with-rogue-one.html (http://www.starwarsunderworld.com/2016/06/report-whats-going-on-with-rogue-one.html)

I'll past it here as well.

Quote
Word got out earlier this week that four weeks of reshoots were scheduled for the upcoming film Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. While reshoots are extremely common for films, the reports also suggested that Disney executives were less than pleased with the film and had ordered the reshoots in order to change the tone of the film to something more along the lines of The Force Awakens (Rogue One is believed to have a grittier tone that previous Star Wars movies and has been described as a "war movie").

Today, Entertainment Weekly's Anthony Breznican did some digging to uncover what exactly is going on with the Rogue One reshoots. While official sources won't comment on rumors, Breznican's unofficial sources shed some interesting light on the rumors and should reassure fans who were concerned by the reports.

First off, the sources confirmed that these reshoots were planned before principle photography on the film even began. They also denied the reports that up to 40% of the film needed to be reshot. The source told EW, "If we were rewriting the movie and reshooting 40 percent of movie, we would not be finishing in August." Breznican also confirms that Christopher McQuarrie, one of the film's screenwriters, is not going to be supervising or collaborating with director Gareth Edwards on the reshoots (McQuarrie himself aggressively denied the rumors earlier today).

However, Breznican reports that Edwards will be joined by Tony Gilroy (Michael Clayton, The Bourne Legacy) for the reshoots. Gilroy apparently wrote new material for the reshoots and will direct second unit. An EW source describes the new material as having "everything to do with clarity and character development and all take place [as inserts] within scenes we’ve already shot".

This is very similar to what was done for reshoots on The Force Awakens. Director JJ Abrams spoke about this process on a recent episode of The Nerdist Podcast where he explained, "we shot nearly ten minutes of the movie (at Bad Robot Studios) and it was getting moments, getting shots, getting pieces, that were missing from the scenes when were shooting them", adding that, "it was about these incredible, critical, intimate moments".

As for the report that Disney Executives were unhappy with the tone of Rogue One, and ordered that it be shifted to be more like the tone of The Force Awakens, the sources deny these as well. According to one EW source, "The movie is very different than [The Force Awakens], and that’s intentional. It’s a war film." That quote should be very comforting for fans (myself included) who were concerned about a shift away from the "war movie" style to something that was trying to mimic The Force Awakens.

And finally, one of the sources hinted that Lucasfilm had something big in store for Star Wars Celebration Europe this July in London. A Rogue One panel with Edwards, producer Kathleen Kennedy, and "special guests" is slated to kick off the convention and the source described the expected reaction as, "People will go insane".

After a week of crazy rumors, over reactions, and conjecture, it's nice to have the reshoots clarified as best as possible. It sounds as though everything is proceeding as planned and there isn't any reason for fans to be concerned. It sounds like Celebration will also go along way to convince people who are still on the fence to get excited for this movie.

Rogue One: A Star Wars Story hits theaters on December 16th and stars Felicity Jones, Forest Whittaker, Donnie Yen, and Diego Luna.

ABC is playing The Force Awakens documentary called "The Making of Star Wars: The Force Awakens" on Friday night at 8:00PM EST.

During the documentary, ABC will premiere the new Rogue One trailer.  It is supposedly three minutes long.

The documentary appears to be the same one that is on the Blu-ray.

The Star Wars: Rogue One trailer will probably be seen first at Star Wars Celebration which starts tomorrow in London.

There is a rumor that there will be Episode VIII footage shown during a panel on Sunday. :)

F%^king Disney! >:( ::)

They didn't play the new trailer during the special.

They played the same Star Wars: Rogue One Celebration Reel I posted above.

Lying sacks of crap.

Their ad said it was to be the trailer.

The trailer exists.

Darth Vader is the last shot.

The bootleg going around is terrible.

Guy doesn't even record the screen for a good portion of it.

The new trailer is here! 8)



Absolutely breathtaking.

The two shots of the Star Destroyers are amazing as is the Death Star moving in high orbit.

This is technically a second teaser. We will get the full trailer in either late September or October.

Sorry about the links.

There must be a problem here at GB.

Yeah, Vader also showed up at the end of the teaser they showed at Star Wars Celebration in London.

There is now a decent bootleg at Vimeo.

I wish they would release this one officially as well, but they probably won't.

Jimmy Smits confirms Bail Organa in Rogue One. 8)

http://www.ew.com/article/2016/08/05/ (http://www.ew.com/article/2016/08/05/)

Quote
Star Wars fans will get another look at Leia’s adoptive father, Bail Organa, in Rogue One. Jimmy Smits, who made his franchise debut in Star Wars: Episode II — Attack of the Clones, sheepishly confirmed his minor involvement in the upcoming Star Wars standalone story. CBS’s The Talk presented Smits with a screenshot from the Rogue One sizzle reel that debuted at last month’s Star Wars Celebration in London. Hosts asked if the man who resembled Smits in fact was him. He first resisted with a few denials before conceding. “People got nothing better to do!” he joked. “There’s stuff going on in the world!”

When pressed for specifics, Smits played coy before revealing a little more. “Can you say the word, ‘cameo?’” he smiled. “Can you say the words, ‘small part?’”

Bail Organa has limited screen time in Episode II and III but steps up at the end of the latter to adopt one of Padmé Amidala’s twins — Leia Skywalker. (Luke was taken by Obi-Wan Kenobi to live with Uncle Owen and Aunt Beru on Tatooine.) Rogue One is set well after the events of Revenge of the Sith and close to the beginning of Episode IV — A New Hope, tracking the team that steals the plans to the Empire’s Death Star. Smits’ casting has not been announced by Disney; the studio declined to comment. Smits’ reps did not immediately respond to EW’s request for comment.

Rogue One opens Dec. 16.

Fucking JJ Abrahms.  In every interview I've ever watched of this dude he comes off like a real dickweed.  He's personally pushing this idea of being "inclusive" to the Nth degree.

I've got an idea.  How about we put the art first and cast people that are best for the roles instead of using your movies to push agendas.  Whatever the race or sex of those people turns out to be is fine with me.  Just put the movie first and stop with this bizarre, hostile, SJW crusade.

I have always loathed Abrams and Disney seems to have a similar agenda.

My hope is that Edwards has done everything he can to buck it even though he was saddled with the Jyn character.

Hopefully, they don't make her a Mary Sue like Rey.

The Story is about that same shit back  in 77, when the rebels managed to steal the blueprints to the Death-Star, sometime in the timeline between Ep 3 and 4.

It's that same Death-Star, not a new one.

Back when Darth Vader was in his prime. aka 1996 Kevin Levrone.

I saw the film.  A dumb rehashing of the original made just for the PC crowd.  Loathed it for what it really is.  Crap.  I can see why Ford wanted to die in the film.

Actually, that's not a bad idea!

Imagining the deathstar being shot down in each and every movie you see is quite the interesting concept.


Will he save money? (not watching any movies in cinema anymore, since he knows how the movie will end (deathstar being shot down))

Or will he watch even more movies reminiscing the past and all those times when the deathstar was shot 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?

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.

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.

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 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.

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.

Yes, he looked very mean/menacing here... the way he's suppose to.  I often wondered why Lucas did not pay closer attention to detail to the 3rd prequel mask.  It looked very different from the way it did in the original.

I was 11 years old in 1977.  When I first saw Vader appear on the captured rebel ship, I knew this movie was going to be something special.

The Prequel Vader costume sucked.  Helmet especially.

Vader in the 1977 "Star Wars" movie was my favorite.  The helmet was raw and gritty, full of imperfections and battle scars.  Plus, his character was also a little more aggressive in that film.

They sculpted 1 half of this mask and them scanned it.  Reversed the data and then combined the two halves to create one symmetrical  helmet.

It was a horrible idea for many reasons but the bottom line is that they ended up with a shitty looking brain bucket.  Then they stuck skinny ass Hayden Christensen in the suit.

I man, look at his tiny little phaggoty hands.  Total shit-show.

For all of those who look forward to see Vader again (as I do), here comes a major spoiler:

Vader is getting his ass kicked by Jyn in the movie. Yes, you heard right. Lord Vader gets his ass whooped by her big time during a fight. How is that even possible? Well, he isn't very much used to his new prosthetic limbs yet, so that's how the writers try to justify this crap. The person in the bacta tank is also Vader/Anakin, recovering from his injuries, which are the reason for getting new prosthetics.

The Star Wars franchise is doomed...  :'(

I'm sorry, dude. Absolutely nothing you said is true.

Not used to his prosthetic limbs?

At this point, he has had them for almost twenty years. This movie takes place just before A New Hope.

He has been cyborg for a long, long time.

Also, Jyn does nothing to him.

By the way, people saying (and complaining) that he will be in the film for like ten minutes are correct.

However, the complaining makes no sense.

Why? Simple.

He was in A New Hope for only ten to eleven minutes. The exact time escapes me, but it is truth.

Hmm, are you sure about me not being correct? I mean dead-sure? You heard otherwise? Serious question.

I am used to Vader and his story. I know how, when and why he got his (original) cyborg limbs. From what I have heard, he has to get some of his limbs replaced in the Rogue One movie because of new serious injuries. I heard it from - in my perception - a very reliable source. I hope the source is wrong though, because I don't want to see Vader getting his ass kicked by Jyn.

Still, I don't hang my hopes too high.

I also heard that Vader will have not much actual screen time.

Rouge One is right before A New Hope (IV).
Luke Skywalker is at least 18 in A New Hope (IV).

Luke was being born at the end of Revenge of the Sith (III).
Darth Vader was "created" at the end of Revenge of the Sith (III).

If he isn't used to his prosthetic limbs by Rouge One, he'd pretty much be an autistic robot machine.

The suit provided life-support systems and gave Vader relatively free movement without having to use a hoverchair.

It was damaged or broken several times during its use, necessitating upgrades and repairs.

Before Mustafar Anakin had the potential to be twice as powerful as Palpatine, but afterwards he'd only max out at about 80% of Palpatine's strength.

Palpatine engineered the suit to hamper Vader's abilities as well, just as a precaution.

Okay, maybe I expressed myself incorrectly.
Darth Vader gets his original prosthetic limbs at the end of ROTS. We all know that.

What I wanted to say is that he has to get some of his original prosthetics replaced due to heavy injuries and damages, which occured briefly before the time of Rogue One or probably even during it. His new prosthetics cause quite some serious problems for Vader and that's why he can't beat Jyn in a fight/battle.

If he confronts Jyn with his original prosthetics, which he is already very much used to since his "creation" at the end of ROTS, he would most likely beat Jyn easily and the writers of Rogue One could never get away with Jyn beating up Vader's ass. With Vader being not used to newly attached prosthestics, the writers seemed to have found a solution to this problem.

I don't like this solution. And I don't like the whole idea of Vader losing a fight against Jyn. But I myself would actually bet some money on Vader clearly losing the fight against Jyn. Sad, but true.  :'(



Pretty sure Vader is going to put his prosthetic cock in Jyn.

He will jiz oil

Or is that simply an old-wives tale?

According to Ken Ralston,Visual Effects artist on Return of the Jedi, it is not an old-wife's tale:

"I was always trying to stick stuff into shots,” Ralston laughs. “JEDI has my tennis shoes and also a yogurt container as part of the ships in the background! Who would know? It’s like there’s all this stuff going on – and I thought, ‘Hey, it’d be fun.’ It was my way of just saying, ‘See what you can get away with?’ Some people noodle this stuff so much, fretting about it, but it’s like, you know, you can’t tell what this stuff is – just stick it out there!”

KWON , MOON, Your posts are actually the first time I have seen any sort of confirmation about the stuff in the 'background'.

I lived within the Lucas neighborhood (close to Lucas Valley in San Rafael, California which was named Lucas Valley before George Lucas even set up camp there) ... while most of the  original SFX filming was going on and once in a while you'd hear rumors in town about some of the shenanigans that went into the production of the Star Wars saga.

Then the company moved over to the Presideo area which is on the San Francisco Bay by the Golden Gate Bridge .... one of the most prestigious properties in the SF Bay Area.

Never went inside the complex but I understand that a lot of the filming is still underway there for Industrial Light and Magic.

I got out of the info loop when Disney took over.

But remember, if you add up his total screen time in A New Hope, it is somewhere between ten and twelve minutes total.

Also, that is not a bacta tank.

Then ten minutes of actual screen time would be quite something I guess. I'm very fine and many other fans would be also in my opinion if Vader actually got as much screentime as in A New Hope. I would not be fine with him being handicapped by new injuries, no matter how much they would show of him then.

Are any of you GetBiggers knowledgeable about Alan Ladd's son's involvement in the first production of SW? There are ome interesting stories behind getting that first one on the screen.

And ... Go see HACKSAW RIDGE.

I have a dear friend that worked for Lucas and is still a voice actor.  He may know a great many stories, but I don't ask him about that stuff so outside of what he tells me, I have no clue.  He has been in several LucasFilm productions.  We have known one another for over 40 years now. 

Alan Ladd was a very tiny man, you know.  I believe it when they said his leading ladies sometimes had to walk in a trench next to him to keep him from being dwarfed by them.

Although I was never on a set with Alan Ladd, it was known that he stood on a box while filming close ups with his leading ladies.

And somewhat related to this subject ....... Anyone who works on a major movie production has to sign a non-disclosure form/contract promising that they will not disclose any part of the production nor any part of that production's  script.

So in most cases if you hear anything about a forthcoming movie .... it just might be a rumor ... unless the production company releases it for advertising purposes.

Here's a non-related question ...... Who was Carl Switzer? And how come there has never a movie made about his life?

NO FAIR GOOGLING HIM! YOU EITHER KNOW WHO HE  IS OR DO NOT!

Disney doesn't seem to have a problem with doing the same thing over and over.

OK, look.  I've been a huge Star Wars geek my whole life, I'm trying to be excited for this movie and I was planning to go see it as soon as it comes out, but........

I can't get behind this movie.  I've watched all the trailers and tv spots and the more I see of this thing the less I like it.  It looks like a total shit show.  Just a genuinely bad film.  The writing is corny and the acting is third rate.  Donnie Yen's acting could actually ruin this movie single handed.  Fucking awful.  Plus, even if you can ignore the fact that it looks like shit, then you get bombarded with leftist political agendas.  Read this shit from two of the writers of the film...

"Please note that the Empire is a white supremacist (human) organization," wrote Weitz. Added fellow Rogue One scribe Gary Whitta, "Opposed by a multicultural group led by brave women." Both men changed their avatars to a Rebel insignia with a safety pin, a reference to the symbol of solidarity with persecuted groups that has spread following the election.


Oh, for fucksakes!  I'm sick of all this racial shit being injected into everything, and Donald Trump has fuck-all to do with Star Wars!  I wish these dickless pantywaists would take the cocks out of their mouths for a second and focus on writing a good movie.  If you'd rather be a political activist then go be a fucking activist.  Go work for the Huffington Post or something.

That's enough for me, I'm not going to see this fucking movie.  Fuck it, and I'm not going to go see that ill conceived Han Solo prequel either.  Fuck these people.  I know it doesn't matter and the movie will still make 14 quadrillion dollars but I just can't be a part of this hacky, agenda driven bullshit.  No.

Darth Vader was originally a Hebrew.

All the original Sith were black because they use the darkside of the force.  It was prophesied that they would be enslaved and taken back to their enslavement in starships.   

The so called Jedi are fake, caucasian lightside force users and will be enslaved by the black Sith when the original black Sith returns.

Hope I'm wrong and Vader runs roughshod on some rebel scum!!

There won't be one good answer given.  It'll be nothin but "what was it like becoming part of the Star Wars universe" and "how did it feel being on set" and "what is planet Jedha like" followed by generic nothing answers.

The great questions like "will Darth Vader cut your freakin head off" will never be allowed to be asked or answered if they are.   Not a bit of plot will be discussed beyond what the marketing campaign has allowed.  Again, just generic answers that don't say anything yet aligned with marketing materials.

These actors are contracted and can't say anything.  Sure an occassional slip happens, but it's rare.

It's only the random insider information that's leaked that's ever of interest.

Leia and Tarkin are definitely in the movie. Tarkin was a no doubter, but Leia has been confirmed by a release of the cast list.

The actor playing Tarkin is Guy Henry.

The actress playing Leia is Ingvild Deila.

It looks like both the actors are basically stand-ins overlayed with CGI to look like Cushing and Fisher.

Also, they got an actor to play General Dodonna. He's the guy who runs the base on Yavin IV. He gave the briefing on how to attack the Death Star in Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope.

Here is the list:

PRICESS LEIA -- Ingvild Deila... with Special Thanks to Carrie Fisher
DARTH VADER (VOICE) -- James Earl Jones

KRENNIC -- Ben Mendelsohn
GOVERNOR TARKIN -- Guy Henry...with Special Thanks to Peter Cushing
GENERAL DODONNA -- Ian McElhinney (Ser Barristan!)
C3PO -- Anthony Daniels
2TUBES -- Aidan Cook
There were several more generals and senators listed, but no actors of note.

No R2-D2 listed in credits,  but that could be because of Kenny Baker's death and there no longer being a little person inside.

It's either that or R2-D2 makes no appearance.

Reviews are coming in.

Very positive.

Darth Vader is in three scenes.

Yes, that is him in the bacta tank from the teaser. The guy in the hood is some old man coming to get him to tell him Krennic is there to speak to him.

The second scene is Vader talking to Krennic. He chokes him like Motti in A New Hope, but does not kill him. Krennic dies another way.

The third scene is Vader attacking rebels with the Force and lightsaber.

Don't expect Jedi action, some half-assed Jedi is there. To be expected if its before Star Wars 4.

Short review: Wasn't that great. Regular action movie. But the final Vader scene was worth the 2 hours. Seeing Tarkin was cool too.

I'd go again to just see that last Vader scene.

Disagree it was meh.  Movie was great, and the last 40 minutes were epic, especially the end.   Better than VII.

Some highlights:

1. not your typical happy movie - all who though Disney would sugar coat this franchise were wrong.
2. CGI for Tarkin was unbelievable
3. Vader used perfectly
4.  Female lead wasn't really that much of the focus
5. Great mixing of ambience of the original Episode IV, since it's the same time period

I'm glad they took this from Lucas, and took it seriously enough to make good films.

If you are going to watch the movie:

1. Go to nicest theater in your vicinity;
or

2. have a nice, 4k tv and don't go to theater. 



It really is a visually beautiful film (like Force Awakens), but it didn't blow me away until the Vader action. A lot of stuff seen in the trailers were not in the film. I assume they cut out some good (dark) material.

Saw it today in IMAX 3D. 

Pretty damn good.  IMO, it was much better than the Force Awakens.

The CGI Tarken was good, but he looked like CGI at certain angles.  Leia was better and looked more real to me.

The Vader scenes towards the end were very well done and the highlight of the movie.  The mask and costume was perfect.

Right now I'd put it in the top 3 behind Empire and A New Hope, but might change my mind.

Rogue One has no comic relief either.  Darker is better.  From what I understand, the original movie was too dark and portions of it had to be re-shot.  Some of the things in the trailers were not in the final cut.

Probably unnecessary, I agree.  Besides that I thought Vader had just enough screen time and his scenes were well done.  I think it captured more Vader fear factor than the other movies. 

I'm seeing it again this week to catch some things I may have missed.

The Vader seen was awesome, needed more.  Tarkan looked good, the eyes give it away though.  Leah was laughable. 

SPoiler:

What I don't get is why use the Death Star on that planet at the end.  Now the entire Empire Archives are destroyed.  Plans for everything blown up.  How do they ever make anything again based on old plans?  Obviously Vader knew that a flaw must have been made in the Death Star so why didn't he research it more?

This occurs before luke even trains with Ben and R2 gets the plans uploaded and lost on tattooine.  So there's ample time. At least it answers the 30 year joke about why make a deaths star with such a flaw.  Doesn't explain why they didn't fix it the second time.

Star Wars: See How Tarkin Came to Life in Rogue One Special on Nightline

When fans went to see Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, many were surprised - some downright shocked, some maybe a bit put off - to see Grand Moff Tarkin up on their screen, looking like actor Peter Cushing - now deceased - hadn't aged a day since 1977. That was thanks to the visual effects wizardry of Industrial Light and Magic, actor Guy Henry, and the Cushing family estate.

Now the secrets of that effect will be revealed on a special episode of ABC's Nightline airing tonight, January 4, 2017. The process is broken down into three primary steps in the teaser video for the episode.

The video starts with original photography of Henry, acting in full costume with some special motion capture headgear on; that's so when they use his voice and cadence with the digital face of Cushing, they match up perfectly. From there, ILM digitally removed the head gear, as well as Henry's hair, creating a digital version of his face. From there it's the morphing into a digital Peter Cushing, who delivers the final performance on screen.

It's a revolutionary technology, and one that had fans split. Some thought it worked perfectly, or at least well enough that they hardly (if at all) noticed there was a digital actor on screen. Some were more sensitive to it and got pulled out of the film. Still, it at least demonstrates where things are going and ILM's technical prowess continues to improve. When visiting and touring the ILM facilities, they told Comicbook.com about more than one technology that didn't exist, "So we invented it," and quite nonchalantly.

I completely agree with this.  I was still blown away, but CGI on Tarkin and Leia (although fantastic) was still "off" (best I can put it).   The one thing people can recognize every facet about is people and perfecting all the slight mannerisms, skin imperfections, muscle movements, etc....is extremely challenging.  How these folks do what they did blows my mind, but yes it isn't "perfect" yet......may never be when it comes to a CGI human on screen.

The brief note I saw on it was that the CGI was layered over a real actor, to avoid what's called "dead eye effect" or something of that nature.

I thought Tarkin looked better than Leia, but I know opinions vary on that.  I wasn't convince Tarkin was CGI at first, just thought it was more of the "digital look" to the movie.

Either way, it's pretty awesome.

I saw it last week, it was pretty good and I immediately watched the force awakens the next day to compare it to. The force awakens was garbage, even worse than any of the prequels were (I like the prequels for the most part though, unlike most).

 I hope I never have to see 'Finn' again on a screen, he is such a bitch character. Actually I'd like to see him get cut in half by a lightsaber. An over dramatic white knighting little bitch. I was happy to see Rey refer to him as a friend when he clearly wants a piece of that.

 Rey was a decent character though, and better than the female lead in R1 I thought. Usually I hate female leads portraying atypical behaviour and 'girl power' but the actress did a good job and played her role confidently. Would definitely hit. The male characters were pathetic though, with Han Solo even being killed off and bad guy looking like a high school nerd sans pimples. Seriously the guy was an ashton kutcher looking fella with dick lips. No homo.

The male leads in both films are shite, in fact I can't remember any of their names except the two in TFA. Actually, the characters in general were garbage; how do I know this? Because I can't fucking remember them even a week later.

I did however love the action scenes, the special effects were excellent. The plot was pretty good in R1 as well, despite a highly forgettable cast. I'd give it a 6/10 overall. I also like that a shit ton of the 'good guys' died, actually all of them pretty much. Thank god, I cant stand the stereotypical and unrealistic path movies take with this good and evil bullshit.

 IF directors and writers actually gave a shit about developing meaningful characters rather than displaying aural and visual feasts in high definition, then MAYBE Hollywood would have a chance of returning to it's former glory.

The male characters were pathetic though, with Han Solo even being killed off and bad guy looking like a high school nerd sans pimples. Seriously the guy was an ashton kutcher looking fella with dick lips. No homo.

The male leads in both films are shite, in fact I can't remember any of their names except the two in TFA. Actually, the characters in general were garbage; how do I know this? Because I can't fucking remember them even a week later.

I did however love the action scenes, the special effects were excellent. The plot was pretty good in R1 as well, despite a highly forgettable cast. I'd give it a 6/10 overall. I also like that a shit ton of the 'good guys' died, actually all of them pretty much. Thank god, I cant stand the stereotypical and unrealistic path movies take with this good and evil bullshit.

 IF directors and writers actually gave a shit about developing meaningful characters rather than displaying aural and visual feasts in high definition, then MAYBE Hollywood would have a chance of returning to it's former glory.

I liked Rogue1 better than Awakens.  The main thing that bothers me about these movies is that Disney is more concerned with political correctness and diversity than the storyline.  Lucas is a huge libtard too, so he would've also moved in this direction.  IMO, the Vader stuff was very well done and the best part of the movie.  I guess you gotta take the good with the bad.

After many years of loving Star Wars, I'm starting to root for the Empire too. Rogue One was not too bad but again not enough real models and too much GC. Digital faces of the dead actors didn't seem right, therefore thay should have done a different type of scenario..maybe different actors, all in all same shit all over again with slightly better effects, storyline but underdeveloped characters. Lucas was right when he wanted to do TV show style approach. Then you have the time to build characters and tension.

Wouldnt mind seeing a Star Wars TV-series now.

Season 1 could build up Wilhuff Tarkin etc, Season 2 Moff Motti etc

Could be a costume-drama like Rome.

Liked Rogue One a lot...thought it was very well done.  Death Star destruction was epic.  Blending between prequels, Clone Wars and original trilogy was excellent.  

Darth Vader's added scene at the end was amazing!  He wasn't the Vader of the past here....he was sooooooo much better!

Would love a stand alone Vader movie with a younger Vader hunting down remaining Jedi across the galaxy.

Tarkin and Leia effects were amazing....not perfect of course but amazing.  Anyone critical of these effects needs to also produce a solution to improve them.  Further, throwing money at isn't a solution because the studio has ample resources that could've been utilized.

She was going blind then.

It was obviously not her. Skin too shiny. Now I will admit that there were times when Tarkin was on the screen and the shadows were overcast enough to where that shit looked AMAZING.

Best facial CGI I've ever seen in anything. (Although Gladiator and Fast and Furious 7 were really good in their own right.

That said, I don't know about 2020 completely, but within 10 years, you probably won't notice anything ever.

You don't realize how much is CGI already. Remember, you only notice bad CGI, you never notice the good. You just think it's a person or a city or a car or whatever. To you, it's the real thing.

It's not unless you're making it or have access to the green scene behind it that you would be amazed by it.

Some of the shit you just don't realize is CGI, is fucking animated as all get out.

But I'm think a buddy road trip movie staring Vader and Bobba Fett. Obviously not much dialogue from Vader. You would need a third charterer the audience could connect with. The purpose of the film would be to convince the audience that the Empire is the side to root for.

Yet in 'A New Hope' story line, which follows immediately after Rogue One, Vader is considerably less aggressive, less angry, less menacing.  The blood thirsty Vader you see slicing and dicing the Rebels at the end of Rogue One is a nothing like the softy you see battling Obi-Wan Kenobe in A New Hope.  By comparison, Vader is a pussy cat in A New Hope.

I don't think you can compare fighting an extreme number of enemies vs one, let alone a jedi who is a former mentor and best friend.

I hear you.

Jedi and Sith draw strength and agility and ablity from the force....same reason 900 yr old Yoda could flip and twirl and be nimble with his lightsaber.

If you really look at the scene all Vader actually did was walk straight down the hallway and swing his lightsaber to block blaster shots and used the force to fling men around and used power movements and hard saber strokes and thrusts.   His movements had virtually no flourish and he stayed on the ground almost the entire time moving in almost in a straight line.  Only "fancy" saberplay was the initial blocking of blaster shots and again Jedi/Sith have heightened senses and quicker reflexes that are derived from the force.  

Today's prosthetic limbs used on everyday folks could easily allow a person to mimic the exact movements Vader demonstrated in Rogue One and we're talking about the robotic limbs of a fantasy/sci fi galaxy that clearly has VASTLY superior technology as compared to anything we have today.

Further Anakin was one of the most powerful, skilled Jedi of all time and Vader was one of the most powerful Sith of all time.

Look at old Obi-Wan v Darth Maul in the current Rebels season 3....they face off once again and Obi-Wan who is older than Vader easily defeated Maul in three strokes of his lightsaber.   Master Jedi and Darths are named as such because of their skills in the use of the force.

I didn't care for but ten minutes of the Phantom Menace and about 20 minutes of Attack of the Clones...the rest was garbage.  I liked the majority of the Revenge of the Sith.   So out of the 7 SW movies I didn't like 2 of them.   I don't care for the majority of Clone Wars or Rebels, but enjoy select episodes.  I don't enjoy expanded universe materials that are not canon.   So that basically refutes what you just said.

Any non-fiction you watch on tv or the internet is fantasy and just because you don't enjoy sci fi or superhero materials doesn't matter at all.

The idea of what Jedi and Sith can or cannot do has morphed since 1977. We're talking 40 years of storytelling and what not.

The overall thoughts of what the force wielders could accomplish has increased tons.

It's like Superman could only leap a tall building, and now he can fly... Eventually he could move planets, and now he can't do that anymore.

here's some observations i have on rogue one, in order of appearance:

- female character as a kid = got a pig nose.

- the evil nazis go looking for hippies. hippie kid hides. ever seen that shit before? i feel ive seen that shit with a kid hiding a hundred times.

- main theme song isnt great.

- hippie market something outta marrakesh, this is washed out boring shit they keep on doing. yeah we know its chaos and its every race under the sun. but we've seen those scenes a thousand times. isnt this the same scene that was in bond films? trying to hide in a market? and indiana jones? and jason bourne? wtf

there are only so many scenes in a movie, and yet they cant think of anything new, anything original.

- i like planet jedha. whats the story with that rock shaped as a jesus-looking man?

- i like the design on that jedha-kidnap leader mad-max type dude.

- felicity jones is annoying and has giant lips.

- the cute robot with a british accent continues. i wonder if people laugh out loud in the cinema?  :-\

- forest whitaker is good in the role but i feel when he grabs the oxygene mask he sounds like darth vader, must be a point to that but i just feel it takes away, only vader should have that sound. that whole kidnapping scene doesnt add much.

- more marrakesh market scenes. now we get a asian kung fu guy who is blind. some shit they stole outta 70s hong kong movies.

- they get captured so far we have mads mikkelsen being captured. pilot getting captured and the rest of the gang being captured. what a great script!

- every dramatic scene is the same - somebody is just about to get shot by a bad guy and the bad guy get shot by someone. a planet is about to explode, and they get out in the last second... how the fuck can a grown man be satisifed with that?

im ONE HOUR into the movie now and thats all that happend!!!

"COMMON START THE SHIP!!!" great a car/ship whatever that doesnt start, ever seen that before in a movie? neither have i...

- empire are nazis where as rebels are either hippies of all races or british army dressed in green uniforms...

- 1 hour and 15 minutes in, darth vader looks like shit. looks weak, short, mickey mouse-mask. the he can choke people is overdone. just disappointing. you get to work with darth vader as a story writer and this is the best they can do. not a single line to remember, not a single quote.

- rebels have a meeting, they even got a grace jones-look a like woman present.

- 1.25 more pointless scenes when theyre in a ship nothing happens. nothing.

- 1.30 fight scenes that looks like it was from magnum p.i. just embarrasing.

- 1.41 "gotta find a master switch!" the same technical lame shit weve seen in lethal weapon and other movies, always some hacker, some switch, some wire to cut... this is just so dumb.

- numerous fight scenes. looks video game-ish. this isnt better than empire strikes back. or top gun.

after that i just fast forward... maybe ive missed something, i guess they die at the end?

the vader-scene at the end was alright, still felt it wouldve been more interesting to see him fight somebody that isnt totally helpless...

then some shitty ending with leia for a second and thats about it.

how this can be "awesome!!!" is hard to understand.

The two movies under Disney have been better than the previous three.......although I didn't hate III.

There are only 3 legitimate Star Wars movies. 

1.  Star Wars 1977
2.  The Empire Strikes Back 1980
3.  Return of the Jedi 1983

Everything after that has been absolute horse shit.  Total phaggoty.  Rubbish.  Hot garbage.

Yet in 'A New Hope' story line, which follows immediately after Rogue One, Vader is considerably less aggressive, less angry, less menacing.  The blood thirsty Vader you see slicing and dicing the Rebels at the end of Rogue One is a nothing like the softy you see battling Obi-Wan Kenobe in A New Hope.  By comparison, Vader is a pussy cat in A New Hope.

And yet, that's how we all imagine Vader to be, a very dangerous and powerful character, his calmness in A New Hope makes him seem even more dangerous.

My understanding is that it was he who hunted down and killed-off most of the remaining Jedi.

Look, Rogue One had it's issues. Definitely had some SJW themes and a little too much GRL power. But it was an extremely exciting film. Especially towards the end. Worth checking out.  ;)

yes because the grown ups are mentally as kids.

there's tons of movies that are better picks to go see at the cinema than rogue one.

So you don't like Star Wars LOL.  And?  Go watch whatever you want and quit attempting to troll a thread for SW fans.

I care nothing about the fact you think I'm mentally ill....I've heard that stuff for years LOL.

Exactly. They know all of the male Star Wars fans will pay to watch no matter what so why bother marketing to them?  They instead switch focus to the other half of the population to get them to go.  Now little Suzie wants to see it and that means Mom and Dad and little kwon all have to go.  4 tickets sold, probably some toys in the future and disney just milked a few hundred out of a family on welfare.

never said you were mentally ill, just a big kid

i would change my 1/5 stars for rogue one to 2/5 just for the light sabre scene with darth vader alone. i suspect a star wars fan could give it a 3/5
but to have a 4 or 5 outta 5 stars on it would be hard to justify

Diverting the topic a little bit....but I want to acknowledge the Emperor from Return of the Jedi.  How awesome was he in that movie?  I fucking loved the performance that Ian McDiarmid gave.

if they added a few scenes from first star wars and return of the jedi to empire strikes back we've probably get a perfect movie

Empire was pretty epic.

I think for George Lucas it was all about selling toys anyway.

Apparently he wanted Empire Strikes Back to be an all-out action movie, but the director and other filmmakers insisted insisted on focusing on character development, a darker element, romance, etc

Fandango has announced that Rogue One: A Star Wars Story will be returning to theaters later this August in anticipation of the upcoming Disney+ series, Andor. This screening will take place on Friday, August 26 in theaters across the country. Andor will be released on Disney+ on September 21, with Diego Luna reprising his Rogue One role. This release window is smart not only for its proximity to Andor's premiere, but also the lack of competition at the box office that weekend.

Love Rogue One but the other movies were so bad I couldn't complete Force Awakens and didn't even watch the other 2 after seeing PL flying through space.  I didn't know  Ackbar went out like a "G"!  :o



RIP one of the dopest admirals in cinema history!
