Movies: Star Wars: Rogue One Part II Release date Dec 14th

[Sakicfan]

When did the Empire wipe out the Genonoshens?

IIRC the Republic killed one of their Queen's and occupied Geonoshia, but didn't wipe them out.

In the Vader comics.

 

[Power Man]

Who is the Asian guy with the staff the beats on the stormtroopers ?
Is he a Jedi ?

IIRC he isn't but believes in the Force

Still no confirmation of who is in the Vadar outfit--we know Jones is back. Speculation is Spencer Wilding is in the Vadar outfit but that has not been confirmed yet

 

[Filppula]

That trailer has blown my mind. So good. The music is fantastic.

Visually this movie looks amazing.

 

[Bryanbryoil]

So this movie is supposed to be a prequel to the original 3 Star Wars movies?

 

[Scandale du Jour]

Sort of, yes.

It is rumoured to end 15 minutes or so before the beginning of ANH.

 

[Warden of the North]

Its a spinoff detailing the rebels stealing the plans for the first Death Star, ending with them transmitting the plans to Leia, where we start A New Hope.

Its the first of what will presumably be many "anthology" Star Wars movies. The second anthology movoe announced is about Han Solo before the original trilogy. After that? Who knows? Rumours persist that a Boba Fett "bounty hunter" movie or an Obi Wan Kenobi movie could be coming next

 

[Do Make Say Think]

Solid trailer.

I'm actually excited to see this despite being very unenthused when it was announced.

The magic of movies: a well-made movie overcomes almost anything.

I'm in the same boat. I was really amped about SW last year, watching Rebels, even read that terrible book by Chuck Wendig. And then I saw The Force Awakens and it sucked the life out of me. Hopefully they can turn things around.

I have read that Ewan McGregor would like to do TWO Obi-Wan movies.

I wonder what Obi-Wan could do on Tattooine... during 2 movies.

 

[sully1410]

Is it just me or does Felicity Jones look like she forgot how to act?

I want this so much more than the Han Solo and Boba Fett movies.

 

[WarriorOfGandhi]

wouldn't any Obi-Wan movie have to have a Sith blatantly shoehorned into it? Like they'd have to come up with a plot device like a holocron that draws the dark side to Tatooine. If they do it I hope the climax is lightsaber jousting on banthas

 

[Randy Butternubs]

I somehow missed this:

I blame it on me viewing the trailer while at work.

Or he can fight Inquisitors. Or he can be drawn away from Tattoine for some planet specific adventures that wouldn't expose him.

Idk.

 

[kingsholygrail]

A Han Solo movie could be really great. We could finally get Corellia into the picture.

 

[HanSolo]

Hopefully it's a bit more interesting than the SWTOR model.

Well, Maul is still out there...

I know that confrontation is likely coming in Rebels, but I can still dream.

 

[Finlandia WOAT]

Probably. I'd love to see a simple Obi Wan film where he tries to protect some farmers from gangsters, without blowing his cover or something small: but Disney/Marvel seemingly insist on every damn movie featuring some massive catastrophe. DC too.

 

[Tawnos]

I know it seems cheesy to some, but the unrelenting positivity of a lot of the lines in there makes me happy. Enough with the dark storylines.

Well the movie is about infiltrating the Empire and stealing the plans for a weapon that can destroy planets. The movie *should* end in everyone dying. Quite the upbear story imo

Well, no. The movie is about the perseverance of a small and dedicated group of people fighting oppression. Also, seemingly about a daughters quest to redeem her father.

Even if it does turn out that they all die, we know they succeeded.

At the risk of sounding like a crappy fan...

I don't get this, what is this supposed to be? Looks like the statue of a jedi or something.

You maniacs! You blew it up! Damn you! God damn you all to hell!
