I hope the ending is basically just movie equivalent of someone on a hot streak with Vader in Star Wars: Battlefront. Just him striding through all the rebels swinging and throwing his saber and never breaking the pace of a brisk walk.

Pretty much, dunno why anyone finds that poo poo entertaining though.
He's so powerful he can just stroll by and murder everyone, but he will usually just delegate that work to wave after wave of storm troopers who can't aim instead, I guess most of the time he's not really trying to stop the rebels?

He has asthma, you rear end in a top hat. Sure, he can do all the work himself, but he'll be really tired after. And he can't just go on vacation to get himself back together. When he's not around to at least supervise everything goes to poo poo.

I enjoyed it quite a bit but it a) could have used like one breather scene somewhere in the middle, like in hyperspace or something, where the characters got to know each other a little better, and b) holy gently caress don't put the weird Tarkin CGI zombie in the movie what the gently caress were you thinking aaaaghhh

The first point seemed to be a much larger bone of contetion with the folks I watched it with, I didn't really mind the dense plot given they seemed like they wanted to pack a LOT of stuff into one script. They probably could have skipped the visit to the rainy planet all together, and had that story beat unfold in one smaller scene before everyone convenes for the rising action of the finale.

The whole third act was definitely the best, but overall I think the movie was pretty loving great. No major plot holes, everybody's motivations are clear, it made sense when characters made emotional journeys and decisions, and they didn't pull very many punches with the ending. There was a lot of winking fan service, but at the very least it felt like it was its own story.

Easily the best Star Wars prequel.

Rogue one overall was alright, there's a decent amount of action and there's good payoffs to certain characters, though I'm starting to think it's going to be a christmas tradition for Disney to kill off someone important or cause genocide in a star wars film.

That being said, here's to Empire Strikes Back 2 Episode VIII next year.

WELL THAT JUST HAPPENED!

The soundtrack was the biggest letdown. This really comes through at the very end. When Vader's Star Destroyer jumps in it should have been a last minute "Oh poo poo!" moment but the music is still in "Job well done heroes" mode and it immediately told me that the movie was just filling in the remaining details to the opening shot of A New Hope.

Aside from that it was a pretty good movie.

Right now undead are at the top of my shit list. Undead are complete fuckers. Those geists are fuckers. Necromancers are fuckers. Necrosavants are big time fuckers. Skeletons aren't too bad except when they bleed everyone in the company. Zombos are at least not too bad.


They should just make a Star Wars movie about Han Solo smuggling space drugs and shooting fuckers at bars. Basically Indiana Jones in space but with space adventure instead of regular adventure and space Nazis instead of real Nazis.

Too bad we will never get that.

I remember hearing they had to reshoot the whole movie because it ended with Darth Vader stalking and murdering all the characters like he was Jason Vorhees and that was too dark

Uhhhhhh dude, I'd love for them to make an entire movie of just Darth Vader slaughtering people. Make a Star Wars Horror movie with Darth Vader instead of Michael Myers. That would be amazing. Just make a whole movie of Vader being a stone cold evil badass so we can make up for them making him into a pussy in the prequels.

That would be awesome

I like this movie but the very end of it doesn't make much sense unless you've seen episode IV. Vader being an unstoppable murderfuck machine with a rageboner was really fun in this Disney film.

I liked that it didnt pull punches and most of the deaths felt earned or at least worked. yeah most of the characters were simple characters but none of them were awful and had clear motivations and they were likable enough.
