Star Wars: Rogue One

[epilogue]

I thought a lot of this whole "people won't understand where this takes place" or "people won't understand this isn't a sequel to The Force Awakens" stuff was overblown.

But I just had a pretty frustrating conversation with my boss about Rogue One, what it is, where it takes place, and whether or not old Luke from the end of TFA will be in it.

This problem is real.

Did you explain to your boss that this is going to be great?

Well duh.

[dimejinky99]

Yeah I'm encountering it more and more often.

R2-B5

Fuck this


This is going to suck

[wease]

Why? It's an R2 unit. Not really any different than having R5-D4 in the original movie.

Plus, they had all thos R2 units on Padme's ship in Phantom Menace.

[VinylGuy]

They added that in the reshoots.

[Strat]

They should have just committed to a new droid. I hate this movie already.

Im just kidding. It now feels like its a star wars movie

Synopsis of the book Catalyst which is coming and set in the run up to R1

Spoiler: show

War is tearing the galaxy apart. For years the Republic and the Separatists have battled across the stars, each building more and more deadly technology in an attempt to win the war. As a member of Chancellor Palpatine’s top secret Death Star project, Orson Krennic is determined to develop a superweapon before their enemies can. And an old friend of Krennic’s, the brilliant scientist Galen Erso, could be the key.
Galen’s energy-focused research has captured the attention of both Krennic and his foes, making the scientist a crucial pawn in the galactic conflict. But after Krennic rescues Galen, his wife, Lyra, and their young daughter, Jyn, from Separatist kidnappers, the Erso family is deeply in Krennic’s debt. Krennic then offers Galen an extraordinary opportunity: to continue his scientific studies with every resource put utterly at his disposal. While Galen and Lyra believe that his energy research will be used purely in altruistic ways, Krennic has other plans that will finally make the Death Star a reality. Trapped in their benefactor’s tightening grasp, the Ersos must untangle Krennic’s web of deception to save themselves and the galaxy itself.

So Jyn is Rey's mom?

Is this the movie where we find out why Luke Skywalker has been hiding?

Part of me is enjoying the fun in this thread before the onslaught it's probably going to get once we've seen it.

See? Strat gets me.

[dimejinky99]

Seriously though. I'm going into serious bite down on my expectations. It's September now. This thing is coming over the hill. It'll fly by. Ideally I'd forget it but I blew up my laptop and can't figure out / be bothered to disable news alerts from my phone.

Tons of cool promo images and artwork here. Some really really cool stuff
