Guys, help.
I am not a Star Wars fiend by any measure, but I watched all of Clone Wars (stopped at the end of Season 5, because of obvious reasons) and now I feel this emptiness inside. Rebels helped this, but when Ahsoka died I cried so bad. I have really bad withdrawals. help...

Forrest Whittaker is 54. Seems pretty spot on to me.

I'd say 24 at most. But 20 years + living a hard as fuck life and constant stress have probably aged him prematurely. I think it works.

FYI that article also says it's been well over two decades aince Revenge of the Sith. Timeline getting rejiggered?

>>84005157
>EW also learned a little about Vader’s reputation in the galaxy at this point in the chronology, roughly 19 years after the events of Revenge of the Sith, when Anakin Skywalker lost most of his limbs and was horrifically burned in a battle with Obi-Wan, necessitating the life-sustaining armor he wears forever after. As Rogue One unfolds, Vader is still a background player in galactic politics.

I am looking forward to seeing Vader choke a bitch again.

You guys don't think they got Hayden Christensen back, do you?

So was Forest always going to play Saw or was it a last minute tweak?
Reshooting for the Afro makes little sense. To me, it's more likely that the Afro is for another movie/project that Whitaker's involved with and the reshoots are so the cast call him "Saw" rather than the character's original name.

>>84007244
Nah, EW said that it's going to be a couple of different bulky stunt doubles in the suit and James Earl Jones doing the voice.

According to Pablo and Gary Whitta (the original screenwriter), he was always going to be Saw.

>>84007226
Promo shots are more current, so probably hair.

There were two leaks about Whitaker's character in Rogue One several months ago. That he was a Clone Wars veteran and his codename/name was Castro.

Castro = Cuba
Cuba = Che Guavara
Che Guevara = Saw Gerrera

And there's pic related from the first trailer and Pablo's own words on the subject.

It seems he was always Saw but I'm guessing they are reshooting a major scene involving him but Whitaker grew an afro between shoots so now they need to reshoot all of the scenes for consistency.

>You guys don't think they got Hayden Christensen back, do you?

No. As much as I had zero problem with his work on the PT (unlike most people), he wouldn't be needed for this. At the end of RoTS, he was fresh in the suit. So it'd make sense to use Christensen (even though he kinda begged to do it) to be in it then because Vader would still have roughly had the same proportions as he did before he went in. RO is 19/20 years later. Vader's got more muscle mass now. He's grown into the suit.

Somebody post that gif from the cartoon of the Stormtrooper defending against an army of droids by himself.

>>84007778
>at least before we started guessing Windu, heh.

Yeah, nope. One of yesterday's threads was everyone going on about 'Witaker's character = Windu or Panaka!'

Only one anon guessed it was Gerrera like 20 minutes before the reveal.

I know some people didn't like the resistance using x-wings, but I kinda like it.
It's the ship that killed the death star, would you want to give up the sheer propaganda value those fighters have?

>>84005157

MORE PICS

>>84007921
I don't think Saw will die in Rogue One because he was mentioned in Bloodline.

And Rex was most likely on Endor.

>>84005323
Those helmets... clash pretty badly against the rest of the armor

>>84007948
Was he mentioned present tense in Bloodline?
I'm pretty sure he can be mentioned and still be dead, context is important.

>>84006561
Nah. And i don't care really. Star Wars games are always mostly bad, kind of like games based on movies

>>84007948
Just because he was mentioned doesn't mean he is still alive. Vader, Paplatine, Bail and Padme are mentioned in Bloodline, too, and they are dead. The context of where Gerrera gets mentioned has to do with looking back on the Rebellion as a whole, and how he was basically just a terrorist-to-be-all-terrorists in his time.

No, Rex should die a hero or be recognised as a hero. He doesn't deserve to be forgotten about and be kept as a background character.

>>84008231
Being in the OT at all is the highest honor any SW character can get.

>>84008231
You'd think if Rex was in the Rebellion until RotJ, he'd probably tell Luke all the shit he knew about his Dad or whatever.

Unless he just thought it was a coincidence that two guys called Skywalker were running around with Lightsabres.

I just feel betrayed for some reason. Ever since the TCW movie came out everyone was wondering when Rex would die since he wasn't mentioned in any of the films. There were plenty of moments when we thought he was going to die or become a deserter. For them to say "Oh hey, did you know Rex was alive all the way through ROTJ?" would just feel cheap and unsatisfying. It just feels like I wasted my time trying to care and get worried about a character for nothing.

>Ben Mendelsohn's Director Orson Krennic is responsible for protecting the security of the Death Star project, but he's also a manipulator within the Empire. "He understands the system and he knows how things work, but he also is not above trying to bend it to get what he needs or what he thinks he wants," says Kiri Hart, Lucasfilm's head of story development. Krennic is intended to be a contrast to Imperial officers we’ve seen before, like Peter Cushing’s Grand Moff Tarkin. “Tarkin is the model for these really cool, icy types, you know?” Hart says. “Krennic runs a little hotter than that, so that’s kind of fun and it’s a little bit different. … He is unpredictable and volatile.”

Like the original Star Wars, these characters owe a debt to the two peasants from a 1958 Akira Kurosawa adventure saga. “They’re inspired, again, by what inspired George in The Hidden Fortress, “ Kennedy says. “You could even say to some extent it’s, you know, R2 and C-3PO, a little bit of that.”

I'm really liking the description for these guys.

>We don’t yet know the name of this world, but it’s meant to evoke both heaven and hell — tranquility and war. “There’s this sort of South Pacific, tropical paradise planet that subconsciously leads into some of the imagery associated with World War II,” director Gareth Edwards says. “We went to lots of different places around the world, and one of them was the Maldives. When you're shooting Stormtroopers in paradise, you have the best job in the world, you know? You can't really deny it at that point.”

>In one of the more intriguing photos from Rogue One, we have this image of Deathtroopers prowling on a tundra. One of them is holding what appears to be ... an action figure of sorts. The filmmakers didn't want to explain exactly what's happening here, but they confirm: yes, that's a Stormtrooper doll, a galactic version of a toy soldier. And it will have special significance in the story. (Decades later, an abandoned girl name Rey will also fashion a doll for herself — this one an X-wing pilot.)

Kaytoo wasn't built to socialize. He's as brusque and blunt as he is strong. "He has a very dry delivery," Edwards says. "He doesn’t realize what he's saying is very funny."

The movie's Rebel team is a deliberately diverse mix from our own planet, meant to reflect a galaxy filled with a wide variety of humans from many different worlds (not to mention a healthy mix of creatures and aliens). “People are coming to the Rebellion because something has happened that has galvanized or politicized them,” says Hart. “The question just becomes: What are those triggers for different people in different places?"

Here comes the patting on their backs parts.

Actually if they'd had the budget and effects prepared they would have. Now seeing the equivalent of their rather slapdash cantina aliens in that scene would have been odd.

Of course the thing is it will always cost more to create an alien costume or even CGI than it is just tailoring a costume for a standard old boring human extra. Lucas, by the time of the Prequels when he had more cash than god, was more than happy to have all those Senate hover pods filled with aliens.

Of course it could be argued, and rightly so, that the galactic senate would have a diverse alien makeup (in more ways than one) than a ragtag rebel base, so there IS in-universe logic to it. At any rate Mark Hamill's story for those brit extras as the Rebellion whispering, "Wanker!" and "Git!" he and Harrison Ford walked by was pretty funny. Then when he told them they'd just saved the galaxy they were pretty cool about it.

No, anon. She dressed as a male soldier specifically to get to Orleans through enemy territory. It was a disguise to avoid being captured. Thus the charge of cross-dressing against her actually was true, but it could be viewed (and was by her escort) as a prudent cautionary maneuver to avoid discovery. She was heading into a siege, after all.

I wonder how they'll use him. We've already seen Rebel leadership involved. Mon Mothma and some dude who was chewing out Jyn in the trailer. I suspect, I wonder... is he performing service as a drill sergeant? Wiping Rogue One into shape and making them work together as a cohesive team while reminding them what rebelling will cost them via his own injuries?

Basically I'm wondering if he'll have a command role or a training one. I can see him with either. He certainly lead the Onderon Partisans since the Clone Wars, but it would be fitting given he was once trained by Rex, Ahsoka, and Anakin Skywalker himself. He'd be passing on some of that to the people who will be stealing the plans and ultimately kickstarting the beginning of Vader and the Empire's end, so there's some nice thematic ties to that kind of role.

>>84011115
maybe he's like Garm Bel Iblis, broke with Alliance leadership/Mothma to wage his own war

>>84011115

I think they made it pretty clear as to what he is. He's a rebel extremist. He's the guy who has been leading some of the rebellion's more bloody campaigns. A contrast to Organa.

As to how he effects the group, I suspect it's going to be a sort of rock and hard place. He'll be doing his thing, Krennic will be doing his, and the main cast will be caught in the middle trying to do their thing.

He's probably the Rebels equivalent to Speirs. Freaking hardcore mother fucker who scares the crap out of everyone but has no fear and does what needs to be done.

>>84011323
The question wasn't what he's done but the role he'll play in the film. Him having waged aggressive campaigns with no mercy against the Empire, using everything he can and willing to sacrifice everything to the extent that his own body is extremely fucked up would certainly sound like the kind of guy you'd call on to give a crash course to a ragtag group of neer-do-wells and scruffy nerfherders as Rogue One.

seriously

I just thought of something. What if the reason the Rule of Two had to be enacted was partly because of Sith greed, but also because the Sith ended up extremely weak. Think of it like this, to be an effective Sith you can't just be angry or brash, but you have to be smart too. That's why Anakin fucked up all the time as a Jedi because he would be too pissed off but he would be sloppy instead of focused on his anger and power. What if there ended up being so many Sith that quality control went out the window and you had thousands of Anakins going around fucking up battles and conquests because they didn't know how to properly use their anger. So then Bane enacted the Rule of Two so 1: Sith don't destroy themselves and 2: so the Sith are forced to have a system of quality control or else they'll go full retard and attack the Jedi too early and die out.

the emperor was this big reveal in the OT

while he was a primary player in the PT it would be odd to use him in an OT-throwback flick

>>84012387
But the fact that we didnt see him until V dosent mean he didnt exist. Makes sense for him to appear someway since this is propably the empires biggest project

>>84009622
He will for the same reason Vader will be in. This is probably the last real chance to get appearances from JEJ's voice and McDiarmid before they get too old. Disney won't pass on this opportunity.

>>84012439
>doesn't mean he didn't exist

That's not what I said. I was saying that for a flick that transitions into ANH it'd be more structurally consistent to keep him in the background.

>>84012439
>>84012488
I think it makes a lot more sense for him to be a mysterious person in charge that we hear about but never see (effectively like he is during Ep IV).

We don't need to actually see Sheev for him to be looming over the movie.

I didn't even bother finishing Lost Stars but I did finish Bloodline. It wasn't bad. I can see why some people thought it was a bit boring, but it included some details on the makeup of the galaxy and the New Republic and other major powers that really would have been nice to know in TFA.

In all it's worth a try and seeing if you like it or not. It's hardly Aftermath tier.

>>84013129
It is different than Lost Stars, so it's hard to say if it's as good or not. It's more a political/spy drama than a love story, for one.

But it's really good, so go for it.

>“One of the things we’re doing with these Star Wars stories is embracing the uniqueness of the different genres, and we’re very deliberately leaning into the various styles of directors that we’re approaching so that each of these movies will very intentionally have a very different tone and style from the saga films,” Kennedy says, referring to the trilogy movies. “Gareth has shown a stylistic preference that’s much more handheld, visceral, inside-the-action kind of feel.”
YESS

>>84013406
>Ultimate Star Wars
USW is full of errors. Wait a year or two for a properly set-up reference book.

>>84013381
>Another thing they’re grappling with, Kennedy says, (and it has nothing to do with the reshoots) is whether Rogue One should incorporate some of the standard tropes of a Star Wars film, like an opening crawl, or whether it should distance itself stylistically from the “saga” trilogy films.

>“We talk about that all the time. It’s something that we’re right in the midst of discussing even now, so I don’t want to say definitively what we’re doing,” she said. “The crawl and some of those elements live so specifically within the ‘saga’ films that we are having a lot of discussion about what will define the [stand-alone] Star Wars Stories separate and apart from the saga films. So we’re right in the middle of talking about that.”

>Whatever they decide will likely set a new template for future stand-alone films. The next one, based on the adventures of a young Han Solo, is coming in 2018.

So probably no opening crawl in Rogue One.

Speaking of openings I would love if the Han Solo movie opened with a 5 minute scene of Han and Sana acting like a lovey dovey couple that just got married. Have them be on some resort planet and fuck with the audience by making them wonder why Han Solo is acting so out of character. Then have them do something like detonate some bombs nearby and proceed to hold the entire room of rich people hostage, then once they've stolen everyone's money and jewelry they'll throw some weird smoke bombs that make people forget the past 30 minutes (to hide their identities) and run off with Han attempting to make off with all the rewards. Having the movie start off with Han and Sana's marriage heist would be perfect.

When did this happen? I vaguely remember him giving her a compliment as a teacher but nothing else. You really must be hard to please. TCW wasn't JUST about Maul, you know?

I watched Revenge of the Sith in 2008 (I think) and I didn't knew shit about Star Wars, but I liked the movie. RotS is my favorite Star Wars movie, fight me.

>>84015081
I saw them unedited on VHS. A New Hope was first and I remember really enjoying it and then we watched Empire and I loved it. We would always start return and we would get about halfway through and I had to go home. You do this every time we hung out, and then one day I asked if we could watch the Jedi first because I wanted to see the rest of it. Been over my grandma's house they had the Ewok movie and I would watch that religiously to

Naturally. But he's taking one for the team, so I can applaud that.

>>84015263
I will since I'm not heavy biased against Wendig for how bad a writer he is like a certain tripfag we have.

>>84015306
Is he the one that usually gets them?

>>84015081
My first was that scene from Return of the Jedi where that one Ewok got shot by the walker. Barring seeing promos for the Ewok movies being played constantly on The Disney Channel, it wasn't until later that I actually watched A New Hope on my sister's VHS copy of the original Star Wars Trilogy. Strangely enough, my favorite of the trilogy (ESB) would be the last I'd be exposed to.

Since then, I made an effort to see any Star Wars movie in theaters whenever possible, from the release of the Special Editions to TFA. Oddly enough, I missed out on the 3D version of TPM, but no big loss there

But that's pretty much everyone here. I think you're the first person I've seen that didn't hate him.

>>84015456
I think so, unless he and the guy running the books mega are two different people

>>84015081
AOTC on HBO at like 8 or 9. I thought it was boring as shit even at that age and didn't get into SW until I was 21.

They want to fuck him until they realize that he has no money and all his assets were confiscated by the CIS on Dooku's orders.

>>84015528
Of course he didn't. Order 66 was a reactionary measure to prevent a takeover by the treasonous Jedi.

Enslave the Wookies? Why I never! Palpatine would NEVER condone slavery, however the Empire's jurisdiction only goes so far and slavers are a crafty bunch.

"Did you see what Yullaren said about the Free Ryloth terrorists the other day? 'We need to be compassionate towards our Twi'lek neighbors and find a peaceful resolution to this destructive conflict.' Uhh hello Yullaren, we tried getting along with them. Guess what we got in return? The Perilous falling from the skies of Ryloth and the closest we've ever been to having Emperor Palpatine and Lord Vader assassinated. And guess what? I believe it was you and your 501st legion that trained this obviously dangerous group back in the Clone Wars in the first place. And Yullaren is worried about my 'tone'? We have people bringing Star Destroyers down on innocent people and it's horrible. Absolutely horrible. I can tell you this, Empire, if you elect Grand Moff Tarkin were not going to let these horrible movements like Free Ryloth or the Onderon Rebellion harm innocent Imperial citizens any more. We need to get tough and we need to get smart and we need to do it fast or we're not going to have an Empire anymore."

Dark realistic would make the villains less cartoon evil and more pragmatic evil while the protagonists push the limits of ends justifying the means, basically grey on both sides. That doesn't fit in SW so drop the realism part.

>>84015081
OT on VHS as early as probably 1995 or '96 (age 7 or 8). Wore the shit out of those tapes. Got some of my earliest boners pausing the VCR during Jabba's palace in RotJ. I loved (and still love) Ewoks. In fact, RotJ is still my favorite, even though I think Ep IV is the best objectively.

Saw Phantom Menace in theaters. Loved it. Didn't care about Jar Jar or trade routes or anything, because Maul was such a badass to 11 year old me.

Maybe saw AotC in theaters, don't remember. Didn't see RotS until '06 or '07 on DVD when I did my first back-to-back trilogy nights (OT night 1, PT night 2). I actually liked it a lot having finally seen it.

Much later, after the EU reset, I decided to go full-blown autist and read every book and comic that came out. Watched all of TCW finally and stayed caught up on Rebels. Because REALLY into Star Wars.

Saw Ep VII on 2nd day of release (because wife had to work ... somehow I got one of those in the meantime) and freaking loved it. Sure it's got some issues, but I was so giddy sitting there watching a new Star Wars movie. Seeing a sequel to RotJ is something I've dreamed about for 20 years, and it was fantastic.

I hope a character finds out they're force sensitive minutes before Vader decapitates them.

Surely they wouldn't go with two of the rebels being force sensitive. We already have the blind monk.

When Darth Vader is with grunts, he's JEJ. When he's with sidious, tarkin or luke, I imagine him with Hayden's voice and those facial expressions. It's interesting to read LOTS imaging Hayden underneath that mask. Especially when vader is losing his shit.

>>84017234
Yes. We discussed it and the Coruscant-looking doorway like a month ago. Neither of them are new.

>>84017309
Not necessarily. It could be allllll the way back from the original Jedi Temple, which Luke is supposed to be hunting (not sure why he'd go back to his destroyed temple, frankly), and it could be that those two trees are actually from THAT original tree.

>>84017425
Maybe the Tree is the "temple"
Who says it is a literal temple

>>84017425
>those two trees are actually from THAT original tree
The two Force-Trees are from the original tree from the Coruscant Jedi Temple.

"So Luke, there's no actual first Jedi Temple and just a dead tree? What do we do now?"
".........We smoke it."

>>84017492
Yes. And your point? Because the point of the post you responded to is that there is a long lineage of trees that began at the first temple and can be traced as the Jedi move, through the tree at the Coruscant Temple to these two new ones.
