I think the only thing that looks cheap is the TV set look of the streets of Jedha and the tank attack.

I forgot Chopper makes a cameo in Rogue one. And Hera getting called on the tannoy :)
And the Ghost over Scarrif :)

Such cool little nuggets buried in this

Ghost over Scarif....son of a gun. That's kinda neat.

99% of people wouldn’t have seen it.

It’s those 1% hardcore eagle eyed fans we have to thank for that catch.



It is there though.

I'd heard about it but never went back to look at screenshots. You reminded me.

Also reminds me of the SW:SE where they put the Outrider (from Shadows of the Empire) taking off from Mos Eisley.

Makes you wonder why they felt the need to hit us over the head with the cameo of the guys from the Mos Eisley Cantina.
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?

Fair point. That was a bit much. And created kind of a plot hole.
How did they get off the planet before the Death Star turned up and to tatooine


And using pretty much the same lines and set up was a really bad idea too.

Solo, right into Rogue one, right into a new hope, would be a fun watch.

That’s what we did. Worked well. Although Solo into Rogue One is not exactly a sequel-like transition. Solo did help set up the rebellion though.

Nice! Yeah they both feel like they could slip right into a new hope.

Rogue one far more though of course

Rogue one composer Michael Giachinno is playing two shows here with full orchestra later this year

I wouldn’t judge me by my posting here on Star Wars. Or anything really. It’s one of only two places I talk about Star Wars.
