What was the point of this character?

To die

didn't he have hydrolic kangaroo legs?

a vader-like warrior on the side of the resistance

to show off a older version of vaders life support suit

They had to put a black in the movie somewhere.

To link the shittier Clone Wars to the movies after they said the first Clone Wars cartoon wasn't canon despite directly tying in to Episode 3.

to be black and oppressed

Introducing moral ambiguity? Sympathetic, but capable of evil. Willing to hurt people to achieve his goals. It's like the breathing mask he used- it calls vader to mind, but it isn't permanently a part of him. He uses it, though.

Probably a dorky request to be in Star Wars, so they made this dumb cameo for him. Felt nothing when he died bwcause the character sucked.

so they can show Forest Whitaker in the trailer

can we talk about the suit? it looked like something out of a B movie, or like a television show. Why does disney have to be so cheap?

The one interesting thing Rogue One does is make the politics of the rebellion a bit more gray.

There are more extremist pseudo-terrorist elements behind the ideologically pure faction.

As well as not all Imperial Officers are cool with the Empire.

this whole movie aspires to be be considered a B movie

All his lines were written to be in the trailer. And that's what he's there for, to be in the trailer and say stupid 'epic' shit.

just like both of Clark/Kal's dads in Man of Steel.

>>85625889

he had more scenes but was cut out of the film basically.

It can aspire all it want but many B movies are comfy. Rogue One was propaganda laden bullshit dolled up like Star Wars.

he was so obsessed with destroying the empire that it consumed him and made him as morally compromised as the ones he hated

one of the more nuanced characters in SW, which is why the virgin fanboys can't comprehend
