It's not as big a priority for Disney as the trilogy.


And I'll hopefully love it, no matter to me whether LV Lukes it or not. But given the movies he does like, I probably won't enjoy it at all if it turns out like one of them.
Nothing personal just I'm interested in this story, the established skywalker story.
Not an add on movie that we know the end to already which adds nothing.
It only adds nothing if all that matters to you in movies is story. Which would make sense if you like TFA, I guess.

I don't just like story. I like familiar blaster sounds and previously used references like X wings and Death Stars too.

What are you looking forward to in this film?
Gareth Edwards
Mads Mikkelsen
Ben Mendelsohn
Alan Tudyk
Forest Whitaker


Oh so you just like performances?
And if they act badly in this film?
Will it the directors fault?
Or just a shitty backstory?

Of course it will probably be in 3D so I won't get to fully experience it in theaters. :shake:

I'm looking forward to Edwards because I trust him as an artist. We share similar cinematic values, so I'm confident that he will deliver a film that will resonate with me.

I'm looking forward to the actors performances, yes. I'm a fan of all of their work.

Pretty convincing/logical reddit theory: a young version of Von Sydow's character could be one of the leads of this film. I'll find the link soon.

Edwards in 65mm might be too much for me to handle. I might die.
i thought you didn't get caught up in technical minutiae?

No problem whatsoever. Carry on if you wish to sound like an insufferable asshole.
