Count me as one of the people who didn't really enjoy RO.

Quite a few moments took me out of the film and the most irritating thing to me was Jyn suddenly being expressive out of nowhere. When she had that outburst against the rebel council it just felt like a complete 180 of the Jyn we got to know to this point. Like what the heck was that.

I liked some x-wing scenes that reminded me of playing Rogue Squadron when I was a kid. Everything else was done wrong imo.
I've read a lot of EU and played a lot of videogames and all of them felt more like part of Star Wars than Rogue One (and TFA) did.
>>
>this fucking shit again
Oh God I can't fucking wait for Star Wars season on /tv/ again, totally makes me love this board.

Both movies are trash.
TFA at least had a competent director and a decent script. The result is bland and mostly forgettable, but the movie is good. It's directed competently, it has some memorable scenes and characters and the structure is fine. Take your kids and you're in for some fun time.
Detractors can only say "Mary Sue" and "Muh New Hope", and that are completely right with that.

R1 is unfiltered garbage, salvaged from a bold idea that could be something interesting, a bunch of people in board rooms took something original and made it bland safe trash.
Pacing is shit, characters are shit, actors are wasted, nothing makes sense, only the final fight and one Vader scene is exciting.
It's like the blandest most uninspired generic Marvel movie given a Star Wars skin. It's fucking worse than Return of the Jedi and less inspired than the fucking prequels, I hate this shit.

Fuck everything related to Disney Star Wars, by the way.
>>
>>84878945
When Rogue One was first announced I thought it was going to be a Rogue Squadron type deal where they followed a group of X wing pilots.

I think the only reason a vocal number of people like R1 is because it's so "tragic" having all the characters dying.

I thought the movie was gonna be a heist type movie with slight elements of space horror inspired by alien, where the role of the 'alien' would have been played by Darth Vader, and most of the movie would have taken place on board of the Death Star and there would only be like 2-3 characters
it would have been kino

You know RO to me represents the sad reality that we will never see star wars evolve beyond the OT because nostalgiafags are too busy sucking it dry. That being said at least it was an entertaining damnation and not the glorified 13 year old fanfiction that was TFA.

I think Rogue On should of be a video game like Mass Effect, not a move.

TFA was the worst thing you can do to star wars

All the sacrifice the heroes did to stop the empire was all for nothing because the first order came back and made another death star.

>How people think rey has more personality than jyn I'll never understand. At least jyn had an actual character arch.
Yes but Jyn is just a tough girl that shows no emotion. Rey goes from tough homeless girl to someone who meets new people she cares about and who experiences new situations for the first time. Also she discovers more about herself that she didn't know. Jyn is just "okay fiiiiiine I'll help you destroy that death star..." and she's angry throughout the whole movie. Rey has a few more feelings than Jyn does.
Jyn only shows feelings other than anger as a kid but she doesn't even talk so it doesn't really feel important.
>>
>>84879327
>Rey at least had a personality
Mary Sue that don't need no man is not a personality, more like a caricature of a personality.
>>
>>84877341
Bull shit. Jabba's palace and the battle over endor are all great too. The thing that drags jedi down is all the time spent on han and leia doing fucking nothing on endor after luke leaves, they're just there for some stupid ewok shenanigans to happen adjacent to them.

>>84879368

>>
>>84879360
the suspension and the way the lighting changes to reflect kylo's inner turmoil is great though

I really hope he turns out to represent some sort of chaotic good, somewhere down the line he thought the jedi are too weak and that he would destroy snoke himself from the inside, it would add a lot more meaning to his final dialogue with Solo
>>
>>84879400

Are you serious? Jyn goes from a selfish asshat who only cares about surviving to a crying leader who goes out of her way to lead a suicide mission just for the slim chance that they succeed and to live up to her fathers legacy and sacrifice. Her entire journey is abput finding hope in both her father and the rebel cause.

Rey is a literal fanfiction character whos entire emotional scene can be summed up as 'please dont go back to your planet after fixing everything with your mary sue powers. Shes a reactionary chaeacter whos just there fo plot concerns and everyone trusts her for no reason at all. Her entire upbringing doesnt even reflect her character in any way as shes constantly just believing everything people tell her.

Jyn isnt trusted by the rebels or the others on her team at first because she is what she is. A survivalist whos only looking ito her self interests.
>>
I wish the main character had been a white guy instead so we could still talk about how shitty it was, without "muh mysoginy"
>>
I liked that rogue one looked like a star wars movie. That lived in feeling with technology integrated into mud huts, things are dirty and grimy, and the feeling that the story of the protagonists is just one of many events happening in this galaxy spanning civilization.
Its aproblem I had with the prequels and TFA. It all feels to sterile and clean.
The falcon is a good example. In the OT its fucking gross and grimy, you feel like you could catch something just from sitting down in it. Then in TFA it looks like a movie set with that awful JJ lighting that would be fucking boring on a tv show.

And it satisfied my space battle boner that has been left hanging since Jedi.
>>
Donnie Yen was so wasted in this film. Fuck the director.
>>
>>84879703
It felt like an OT Star Wars movie, you mean.
You are just saying that anything that isn't exactly like the OT is not Star Wars. You liked it because it had actual stormtroopers and x-wings and because it was directly connected to the events of the OT.

You guys realize Star Wars movies are for preteens/teenagers right? Doesn't matter if it's OT, prequel or Disney, they're for children.
>>
>>84879944
Not really the case with TFA. It was clearly aimed at people who are nostalgic about the OT.
>>
>>84879944
What's your point? You are saying movies for kids don't deserve to have any quality? That all children's movies are good?
>>
>>84879759
No, I'm saying there is an established setting and aesthetic that helped to create the feel of a lived in universe that is missing from the shitty prequels and from TFA. If all I cared about was x wings, tie fighters, lightsabers, and other things I recognize then I wouldn't be able to complain about TFA nearly as much.
But at least a movie set during the OT makes sense to have those things, it doesn't make anyfuckingsense why they're still using that shit 20 years later.
>>
>>84880098
I don't know man, the old Republic which existed like 5000 prior to the OT used the same technology
