Now more than ever I wish I could go. I would love to get Hayden's autograph. He wasn't great, but he sure tried his best, and all the non-verbal parts of his ROTS performance were fucking perfect.
>>
>>91196988
At one point in the movie he jerks around to tell something to another mon cala, and you can just tell he's cgi.
>>
>>91197014
Well first we must ignore the persistent theme that most Imperial higher ups are political appointments with no talent.
Then we must assume that Raddus successfully outmaneuvered them as a sensible combat tactician should.
Then we realize that his ship sustained damage and shield loss throughout the battle and was finally destroyed by Vader popping in and unleashing hellfire.

Does that cover it?
>>
>>91196988

I wish they had shown the Hammerhead launching escape pods, evacuating down to just the handful of brave volunteers needed for the maneuver. As it stands, it kind of comes off like the Rebels just sacrificed a whole ship and all its crew at the drop of a hat like it's just business as usual.

There is one scene where it MIGHT be CGI, but puppeteering has progressed a long way since 1983, and it's really excellently done when it's clearly the puppet, so it could go either way.

They've been stationed at Scarif, which never sees action. They'd never faced Rebels before, let alone the entire Rebel Fleet suddenly surprising them out of nowhere.

They did manage to fire at the fleet but the X-Wings and Y-Wings managed to disable one of them before they could do more

I don't know, but I hope he has appearances in the future, possibly getting rescued from an Imperial prison by Rebels or something. The one criticism I have for Rogue One storywise is that it really wasted all its original characters.

>Rogue One executive producer and Industrial Light and Magic visual effects supervisor John Knoll tells EW: “There was some talk about, ‘Hey, is this a suicide mission? Are all these guys going down with the Star Destroyers?’ I started pushing for this idea that maybe in one of the shots we could have all these lifeboats, the escape pods, shoot out of it.”

>“We did an animation of that, but Gareth [Edwards, the director] thought it was a little distracting, so we turned that off,” Knoll says.

>But the VFX team kept fighting for the lives of those Rebels, using some of the cutaway shots to justify an unseen escape.

>“The last shot you see of the Star Destroyers crashing down through the gate — it’s a very subtle thing, and it would probably be hard to tell this – but the lifeboats are all gone on the Hammerhead,” Knoll tells EW. “It’s my story that the Hammerhead crew got into the life boats and made it out.”

>“Our story was that they made it down to the surface of Scarif, and were standing around the beach going, ‘You know what, it isn’t so bad here!” Knoll says.

>Then, as the Death Star fires up its laser … “’Hey, what’s that bright thing on the horizon?’”

>>91197194
I think we'll see a handful of them show up in the next season of Rebels. Saw is confirmed, and I wouldn't be surprised if we saw Raddus at some point. Plus we're already that Guardians of the Whills book, which I'm pretty stoked for.
>>
>>91197219
I meant seeing Rogue One characters AFTER the chronological point at which Rogue One takes place. I feel that it's a bit of a gyp to see all these cool new characters permanently fuck off by the end of their introductory movie. You'd think some of them could wind up at the Battle of Endor or something.

Well I'm glad they thought about it at least. And I'm totally down for the pointlessly cruel "land on Scarif" bit. Just wish we could have seen maybe a brief bit where the ship's commander orders an evacuation, even if we don't see the pods launch.

the shield was up even after DS destroyed the citadel, suggesting that the superlaser just punched a hole in it

I'm not bummed that the main cast dies, I'm bummed that every original named character in the movies dies, with the exception of General Draven and Tenzigo Weems who were on Yavin IV and never in any danger in the first place.

Only Luke, Wedge and one unnamed Y-wing pilot (and Han) survive actually. That is pretty dismal. But you are overlooking the main point, the people who face off against the Empire die. This isn't the story of plucky rebels surviving, but people dying and fighting for Freedom and whatever it entails. Character shields are only for OT characters or people who sit in the behind.
>>
>>91197878

I don't know if the gate generates the shield but it certainly seems to help maintain it, and once the gate is destroyed the team is able to transmit the plans, suggesting that at the very least the shield is destabilized locally in the vicinity of the gate.

He was a perfect villain for a new hope. He really does have a presence, though I think that was more due to cushing. Definitely my favourite character. He's smart, he got shit done, and he is definitely one of the better characters, and it's obvious people care about him.

I'm confused about Chosen One who was supposed to bring balance and destroy the Sith.

Is it Anakin or Luke?

I was always under the impression it was Anakin (TPM, The "Mortis Trillogy" and ROTS all support this) and even though he fell to the Dark Side he threw the Emperor off the ledge in the end before dying, thereby fulfilling the prophecy.

However, in "Visions and Voices" and "Twin Sons" the holocrons point to Tatooine as the "key to destroying the Sith" and Maul asks Obi-Wan is the one he's protecting is the chosen one and he says yes.

>I’ll give you this... I heard from the crew that it was being debated about when Obi-Wan says that "He is the Chosen One." I think you have to understand that in that moment -- after the terrible loss of Anakin in Obi-Wan’s eyes -- that Anakin is not the Chosen One to Obi-Wan Kenobi and that Obi-Wan is hoping that “that boy is our last hope,” and that Luke Skywalker is the Chosen One. I always wonder about the Chosen One and the mythology of the Chosen One because it’s clear George will tell you that Anakin is, in the end, the Chosen One. And the Jedi say at one point maybe this is a prophecy that’s been misread. Yoda says that in Revenge of the Sith. I think in a way it’s that nobody understood what it was going to take for the Chosen One to achieve his goal - this selfless path. It’s not that he was going to come as a warrior and destroy the Sith. Obi-Wan says “You were supposed to destroy the Sith, not join them.” But we’re not thinking in the right way. It’s really the selfless act of his son -- to go before the Emperor, to throw away his weapon -- that inspires the selfless act in his father. That’s the core of this whole idea of the Chosen One. It’s just that Anakin is close enough to the Emperor in the end to actually do it and the Emperor can’t see this selfless action.

It's a story of anarchistic idiots with no government plans serving self-centered senators clamoring for a corrupt old order while valiant men try to hold their own against them for the safety and security of their families, their government, and the survival of Humanity and its foremost place in the galactic scale.

It's hard to watch the movies in any light other than this anymore, and it's kinda sad to think that as a little kid I was cheering for the Jedi and Rebels, but now as an adult I'm rooting for the Empire, for a victory that will never come and a cause that ultimately lost, and that fact saddens me.

It could still be, I guess. In Rebels he says "you can call me Wedge" which makes it fairly easy to construe as a nickname if they wanted to.

Based too closely on his Genndy design, and it doesn't really translate well into 3D.

They tweaked it in season 3. It's subtle but he does look slightly less weird.

Not really even in the CG TCW expanded on clones more Cody never got his own episode like Rex did.

Hell Codys 2 clones had more screen time and importance than him.

Kinda sucks for being one of the first clones ever given a name but has never been focused on a whole lot.

While I'm inclined to agree with you, I think it's important to point out that the less we see of Kylo's face in TFA, the better.

I think the first time he took off the mask should have been the bridge scene and not a moment sooner.

Isn't the academy completely separate from the Empire's military? I could have sworn it's just to train pilots but the Empire happens to poach the best ones for the navy. I was certain he wanted to join the academy because he would get to fly and get off Tatooine at the same time.

a major unavoidable theme of the star wars franchise is the Christian eschatological theme of universal reconciliation, and that a single act of selflessness and good can wipe away the sins of an evil life

>I have a bit of a continuity challenge for you. In Return of the Jedi, Yoda tells Luke, “When gone am I, the last of the Jedi will you be.” But now he knows that Kanan and Ezra are out there. We obviously don’t know at this point what will happen to them, but is that something you’re aware of?

>Dave Filoni: I don’t see it as a challenge at all. It’s what the Sith call an absolute. When Obi-Wan says to Luke, “Your father was the greatest starfighter pilot in the galaxy,” is that true? Or is that something you tell a kid because you want him to believe his father was great? It doesn’t have to be empirical or absolutely true. Saying Luke is “the last,” is that a singular thing, or is he the last of a group? I don’t know.

>It definitely is something that comes up, and we discuss that moment all the time for what it could mean. It is possible to interpret it as, Luke is the last person that’s following the path as laid out by the Jedi Order, which we knew. The way of the Jedi is not the only way to use the light side of the Force. Luke is taught by Obi-Wan and Yoda, who very much followed the dogma of the day. So, he is the last of that line for sure. That’s absolutely true. But you don’t have to be a Jedi to use the Force. You don’t have to be a Sith to use the dark side.

I could see it being purposeful misdirection by Yoda and Obi-Wan (and Qui-Gon's ghost voice?), knowing that the only way to defeat Sheev was through Vader, and the only way to get to Vader was through gambling with his son.

not that it was necessarily George Lucas's intent when making ESB/ROTJ, but there have been worse retcons. and it would be something interesting to stick in the Obi-Wan movie.

>>91203214
I always took it that Luke is the last person trained in their dogmatic view of jedi philosophy. They tried to mold Luke to their misguided views of what Anakin should have been. As far as any other force users out there, they clearly weren't in any shape to be fighting the sith, having been so long away from any sort of "official" guidance, because Yoda and Obi-Wan thought they were the proper arbiters of the faith. In reality, all they're trying to do is use Luke as a tool to kill his father in their attempt to destroy the sith, and Luke goes "fuck that are you guys retarded? I'm gonna save him" and he proves himself right and Yoda and Obi-Wan wrong - Anakin is the chosen one who destroys the sith and brings balance to the force.

I'll be honest:

I never considered any of the shows or books or games or whatever as relevant to the movies.
I mean you, you can have your 1/10th of second cameo that's only visible on the widescreen edition of the blu-ray but ultimately if they don't actually APPEAR in the movies as an actual being, they don't exist.
There could easily be rectonned an invisible super powerful super-secret sith that was following Luke and Ben the whole time making silly faces at them but the character's non-influence, presence or relevance just has no impact on me.
I like the shows, books and all that shit but not once do I think "boy in the background they don't even know dawg they don't even KNOW".

But Luke still would have sought them out! It's possible that that's how he started learning Force Pull or whatever, but I still don't like it.

>>91203463
Luke literally just learned about the Force after ANH, and would probably be obsessed with tapping into more of what Obi-Wan was trying to teach him. Kanan and Ezra are openly Jedi (Or at least Force users), and if they're still alive and part of the Alliance post-Scarif, I see no reason why Luke (Now being pretty high up in the Alliance command chain) wouldn't go looking for them. I'd find it hard to believe that none of the Rebels would go "Oh, you knew an old Jedi dude? We have two Jedi in the club, yeah, they're awesome".
>>
>>91203522
Blue eyes are a common thing, anon.

>>91203319
It's funny though, that reminds me of the complete hypocrisy of the Jedi's teachings.
>Only a Sith deals in absolutes.
>Only the Chosen One can bring balance to the Force.
>Only you can defeat Vader, Luke.

Luke ends up realizing that both paths are dangerous. He doesn't want to kill Vader or join Palpatine, he just wants his dad back, a dad he never really knew.

If they aren't dead, they'll have to be missing or have been drummed out of the rebellion. Luke interacts with people who have met Kanan and Ezra, yet in Heir to the Jedi he's stuck working alone on his noodle bending skills.
They're dead, dead to the rebellion leadership, or somebody has a lot of 'splaining to do.

typically in clandestine organizations, the individual parts are never aware of the greater whole for the purpose of not jeopardizing the clandestine nature of the organization

which is why in the movie To Be Or Not To Be (1942) when some Polish expatriate RAF fighters accidentally unveil to a Nazi double agent the names of resistance members, they make a colossal fuss of recovering that list of names and killing the agent
>>
>>91203598
Even in the unlikely event that Kanan and Ezra try to keep a low profile, I'm sure the entirety of the Rebellion takes pride in knowing that the few Jedi in the galaxy are on their side. That's a hell of a lot of loose lips to silence about their presence.

>>91203579
That's what I'm saying. It's simply not plausible for them and Luke to be a part of the Alliance at the same time.

>>91203681
why would the entirety of the rebellion know a jedi is amongst them

>>91203671
But that's the whole point of Rogue One. All of the rebels started out as individual cells, and then banded together into a single organization by the time of the Battle of Scarif. Sure, Draven keeps things under wraps sometimes because he's the intelligence guy, but they wouldn't keep info like that secret.

Gold Leader never saw any jedi stuff and died in ANH. Phoenix Squadron is the same, and Leia of all people knows to keep her fucking mouth shut.

Not to mention some Imperials also know, which could be used as counter-intelligence to fuck with the rebels.

none of these rebels EVER go "oh have you met these jedi" or "oh we used to have some jedi don't know what happened to them" or "sorry bub, we knew some jedi but they died," they don't talk about them AT ALL

now obviously they wouldn't spoil if they died, but that leaves open the reason why they'd be introduced and made protagonists of a show about them in the first place unless they had further plans for them other than fucking off and dying

3) Some massive clusterfuck occurs that cost the rebellion a huge amount of lives, ships, and credits. The whole plan relied on the abilities of Kanan, Ezra, or both.

I'd honestly prefer it if they went back to the old-Anakin route for the Force Ghost, especially since it'd look weird having Hayden Christensen with old Mark Hamill. They could replace Sebastian Shaw with Jared Harris and it'd work as well as Ewan McGregor as young Alec Guiness
>pic related
>>
>>91204293
Well... You know... Technically it would be canon to have Hayden be Anakin's Force Ghost...

However, I think I remember a concept art piece that showed Anakin's face phasing into Vader's helmet and back and forth. Maybe Old Anakin's face could be in there somewhere too.

>Anakin's voice mixed with JEJ's while speaking
>>
>>91204191
Clearly the former option cannot be the case as then they wouldn't want Luke, and the latter is more plausible but doesn't explain how main character Ezra could be removed from the Rebellion. We have to reconcile with the fact that Ezra is not going to die period. He's the hero and he's going to remain as such for the duration of the series which we know will extend at least into the OT if not beyond Return of the Jedi, and must remain a REBEL.

Personally I don't understand why this is so hard to accept when there were a hundred jedi rebels mucking about in the EU but one case of it happening in a great show and people are out for blood.

I love Sebastian Shaw as Anakin, and the unaltered VHS is maximum comfy and in some ways preferable visually, but there's really no justifiable excuse to have a Force Ghost of a hypothetical good, aged Anakin that never existed. It's far more cinematically congruent with Hayden, who is the face for Anakin, the last all the people he knew remember seeing him, and the last he looked before he fell to the Dark Side.
>>
>>91204456

This.
>>
>>91204388

Luke wasn't a Jedi when he joined the Rebellion.

He became one years later.

But yeah, we can't end up with a situation where Jedi are persona non grata just because at the start of ANH, Leia's mission is to go pick up Obi-Wan on her way home. This wouldn't happen if the Rebels had a problem with Jedi.

>>91204433
Do you mean the part right before the Gandalf the White reveal, where Christopher Lee and Ian McKellan's voices were melded together? Because that's the effect I'm thinking of. The Voice of God was pretty damn awesome too.

>>91204415
I think the general public would be more likely to recognize Hayden as Anakin than Shaw, especially with all the special editions and the prequels being more recent. I get what you're saying, but in terms of character recognition, I really think Hayden is the right way to go.

>>91204484
I'm definitely going to give that a try, sounds awesome for the premise alone, even if Nic Cage does his Nic Cage thing.
>>
>>91204550
no not that, the part where Gandalf and Saruman were making those big booming spellcasting voices affecting the weather before being forced to go into Moria, it has that "Wizard of Oz talking down to Dorothy and Company" effect about it, same with the Burning Bush, it's like the "YOU DARE BRING LIGHT INTO MY LAIR? YOU MUST DIE!" shit from Zelda CD-I but serious and dramatic and not ridiculous
>>
>>91204497
but Anakin was redeemed at the end, was he not? In the script for the film it stops calling him Vader and starts calling him Anakin the moment he kills the Emperor and saves Luke, so surely he officially redeemed himself by the end. Isn't that the whole point of his arc? it makes more sense for him to be an older Anakin since he died as an old Anakin, especially since the younger Anakin that replaced Shaw is one that was already turning to the dark side. I guess you could argue that it could've been how he looked before ROTS, but he still killed all of those Tusken Raider women and children in cold blood.

So which makes more sense, Young!Anakin in the process of falling to the dark side, or Old!Anakin who had already redeemed himself?
>>
>>91204388

Nothing that extreme. Just a good reason, a believable reason, to leave Luke hanging, instructor-less, in the wind.
>>
>>91204654
well, if its based on your last appearance, then force ghost anakin should be an albino burned looking guy, shouldn't it?
>>
>>91204654
The question that needs to be asked is whether the Force Ghost should be the burned, mutilated Anakin we see when Luke takes the helmet off, or if the Force saw fit to return the Chosen One to his proper form before any ill befell him

the fact is, old Anakin (and we must really say old because Sebastian Shaw was in his 70s when he played a man who was supposed to be mid 40s) never existed except for that afterlife scene which makes no sense
>>
>>91204728
well it's the same actor, right? I always figured that the Force Ghosts were their "souls", especially since George justified having Hayden replace Shaw by saying it was how Anakin looked before he turned to the dark side, but then that implies Anakin turned to the dark side in a specific moment, rather than gradually over the course of the trilogy.
>>
>>91204796
he passed the point of no return when he killed Mace Windu

that was made pretty clear when he went "I pledge myself to your teachings" and Palpatine was like "Henceforth you shall be known as Darth...Vader"
>>
>>91204773
how does that make any less sense than putting an actor who was 2 years old when Return of the Jedi came out over the same actor who we just saw play Vader under the mask 5 minutes earlier, even if said actor looks radically different as a Force Ghost than as Vader unmasked.
>>
>>91204854
he looked/sounded regretful as shit, though.
>"what have I done?!"
doesn't sound like someone who's past the point of no return
>>
>>91204796
He fell after he cut off Mace's hand and Sheev deemed him Vader
>>
>>91204858
obviously in 1983 it was impossible to have Hayden because the prequels had not been filmed and there was no other person who played Anakin, but for consistency's sake it makes far more sense to edit the film to insert Hayden, who is instantly visually recognizable now as Anakin

for the record, when first viewing ROTJ as a tot in the 90s, it took me a long damn time (multiple viewings) to piece together that that happy looking balding guy that looked like my uncle was supposed to be the guy beneath the Vader mask

The film distribution rights are tied up between Fox and Disney, especially for episode 4.

Which is why sequels are literally built as copypaste OT trilogy.

Disney is never going to release anything that they would have to cut Fox in on, that includes original cuts.

Same reason fanfare is gone from old movies.

Victory Celebration desu, it's the only thing that makes the SE worth watching for me. The rest of the changes either are out of place and distracting or are subtle enough where I don't notice them (as they should be)

I remember forgetting about Yub Nub since I was so young when I moved from the theatrical versions to the special editions, and when I went back to the originals a few years later I honestly thought the audio on my VHS was fucked up

>>91205474
>Disney is never going to release anything that they would have to cut Fox in on, that includes original cuts.
They digital releases as well as the "villain face" steelbook re-releases were all done in conjunction with Fox (or rather ANH was, they don't need to cut Fox in for any of the others). It's definitely not a rights issue that prevents them from releasing the originals.

the head dodge is a fucking trainwreck (though it was fixed in the bluray), but the wampa and beak just don't really fit visually or cinematically, it's not a matter of effects quality

in my opinion yub nub is, musically speaking, a better song that meshes better with the soundtrack, but victory celebration is good enough, and its a worthwhile change to justify the galactic celebration montage

the wampa scene was better when it was left sort of mysterious exactly what it looked like instead of giving a full high definition body shot of it flailing around on 90s film quality shoot clashing with the rest of the film, and frankly the beak is an ugly eyesore that is not scaled to the human bodies it supposedly swallows and covers up the neat effect of them falling into the pit itself

Because even at that point they didn't know who Sidious was. They wanted to force his hand to reveal himself.

During closeup shots of Sheev in his chair in ROTJ, there's these bizarre black spots on the shadows of his cowls. People nicknamed them "Emperor's slugs" ages ago. Apparently because of the way his face was lit (a light cast on his eyes) the light seeped into the cowl (which is supposed to be shadowy), and in order to cover that they just drew some black blobs. They're less noticeable in the SE and basically gone in the Blu-ray, but very obvious and distracting in the original version.

See this little patch of black that doesn't match the rest of the hood? Looks like of like a slug riding on the edge of the hood?

When they were doing post-production on ROTJ back in the day, they noticed that parts of the Emperor -- particularly around the edge of the hood, likely due to special spotlighting of the Emperor's face to make him look creepy enough -- so they painted over the frames in black.

When projected on a movie screen, it's basically impossible to notice. When shown on a TV, it's staring you right in the face. The Special Edition's color-correction made them less visible, but the Blu-Rays got rid of the slugs entirely and made the Emperor look right.

Cocaine smoking is fun, does that mean you should do it? In the middle of an RPG I thought it would be fun to get up and pull down my trousers and take a fat fucking shit all over the gaming table, burying my friend's miniatures under a torrent of fecal matter. That would have been amazingly fun! But did I do it? No. because "fun" is the reasoning of a fucking child. If you base whether or not you do something off of whether or not it is "fun" then you are a mental infant who is not fit to live in adult society.

Similarly, when you do things in an RPG because they are "fun" you are being a fucking asshole. "Well I'm going to destroy the believably of this campaign by letting Jonathan fly to the goddamn moon on his Jump check because he got a NATuRAL TWENTY and if anything else happens, well, that would be against the spirit of the game, which is to have FUN, right guys? Even if we are fucking over the entire story and destroying the point of playing an RPG, it's okay, because as long as we are having FUN with it, that makes it a good thing, right?"

Do you think Anakin was justified in how he reacted to not being made a Master?

Krennic's. I'm not saying Galen's was objectively bad, I'm just saying that, as a viewer, in my personal opinion, it was bad. Subjectively.

>comparing a few scenes with a goofy alien and a kid being a kid to shitting all over the gaming table during an RPG

Reminder: Star Wars is about space wizards with laser swords who live in the past-future. There's a certain point where you have to say "it's just a show, I should really just relax".

But how? I'm curious why you didn't like it, I'm not going to attack you. It's a matter of personal taste.

What did you think of his hologram scene where it's silent as it fires? Because I thought that was really powerful and moving.

That was a decent moment, I agree, but overall, I just didn't enjoy it, and it's one of those difficult "imo" things. I can't honestly explain why I disliked his acting. There are quite a few not-bad actors out there that I can't explain why I dislike. It's just preference. Something that Krennic did that Galen didn't, I guess. Take it with a grain of salt, however. I'm one of the people who didn't like Rogue One much at all, so my overall outlook is negative on it. I'm not exactly unbiased, and I'll admit to that.

Different strokes my man. It's better than people who scream "NOSTALGIC CASH GRAB". Had a guy tell me the other day that he wanted chirrut to be a Jedi, and he didn't like it because the movie wasn't about Jedi

he also said, and I fucking quote "I hates that the older guy hated the other guy and killed him. what was the point of that?" and they claimed they were a 'total star wars nerd' and they didn't even know who fucking TARKIN is. You're entitled to your opinion my dude

Cheers my dude.

It's good to know people don't always attack each other for differences in taste around here.

I think most posters here actually hate when arguments and disagreements come to that, but people can be stubborn.

We're shitposting about space samurai movies on a Scandinavian astrology prediction hotline. Everyone is entitled to their own opinions, and film is a very subjective medium.

no one is ever objectively correct. But you're wrong when you're only being contrarian for the (you)'s.

It's one of the wittiest and well-made movies ever made, but Pegg needs to keep away from Star Wars.

I hate how he tried to become some kind of de-facto representative for Star Wars fans, by publicly shafting George Lucas and his movies, and helping JJ keep TFA as close to ANH as possible. Motherfucker, that isn't what I, or most fans, actually think or want.

Hot Fuzz was pretty good too.

>>91210072
A new hope is my favourite movie, and that's why I hated TFA as much as I did. Kylo ren is a cool idea. But god damn, if I wanted to watch a new hope, I'd watch it. Tarkin is WAY better than Tarkin lite, and Luke has more charisma than Rey. The only other characters I liked were Poe and Hux, because they didn't do anything.

No lie, edgar wright does comedy visual the best I've ever seen. I put on Hot Fuzz after a bad day to kek

Wait. This has implications if these can be overridden, implications that make Interdictors a bit less useful.

I don't see the issue over Obi Wan's Chosen One Luke thing.

This is Obi Larry Steve Ben "from a certain point of view" Kenobi we're talking about.
