One decade later, does it still hold up?
>>220717398Let me put it to you this way, would you rather watch that or star wars sequels
>>220717398It's a very meh movie overall but has its moments.
>>220717398what in gods name are you wearing felicity
>>220717398Disney and Kathleen Kennedy ruined Star Wars.
>>220717398>ITS STAR WARS BUT SAVING PRIVATE RYAN>THAT WILL MAKE PEOPLE TAKE MY SCI-FI SPACE OPERA AIMED AT KIDS SERIOUSLY LIKE THEY SHOULDit was fucking gay and lame
It’s like a decent 2/5 and still manages to be the only good ”new” Star Wars movie. It’s the only one i’m likely to ever rewatch besides 1-6.
>>220717398Rogue One shares literally all the same problems with The Force Awakens.
>>220717398It never did in the first place. Completely forgettable characters and plot, only notable for a horrible CGI Tarkin and Leia and the dumb Vader hallway scene.
>>220717398no, but as we discovered with the passage of time it could have been a lot fucking worse. That doesnt make it good, its just not a god fucking awful insult to anyone with a middling IQ.
Why did Vader use the force on everybody and everything except the datacard and the person carrying it?I love it when films retroactively portray a famous character as a fucking retard for cheap, monetary gain.
>>220717499>>220717515These guys get it.
It went downhill after Jyn Erso went from "I don't care about the Empire, you can actually live a pretty decent life with a smuggling gig as long as you keep your head down" to getting radicalized and becoming a fervent rebel in the span of 5 minutes. I get she was mad that they killed her father but it felt like it was a solid 20 minutes of character development missing from the cut. Suddenly she's giving speeches about crushing the opressors when two scenes before she was totally apathetic. The pacing felt off in many other scenes like a first draft quickly mashed together. No joke I think this movie was released in an unfinished state.
>>220717398the Shit Timeline:>make Objective Shit>make Even Worse Shit>make Vomit Diarrhea>make Ebola-ridden Parasite Infested Vomit Farts>"uh... we owe a apology to Objective Shit"getting real tired of this chain of logic
>>220717398I never held up when it was released.Its a shitty movie.
>>220717398it never held up.
>>220717398It's probably the most boring piece of Star Wars content out there. Worse than the Ewok movies because those at least had charm. Rogue One simply has nothing memorable to like throughout it's runtime. I don't even remember what her name was in the movie... and I only know Andor's because they built a non Star Wars show around his nothing "character" (which I think was just 'panicky accent').
>>220717398I rewatched this as well as a few of the early marvel movies last year and none of it holds up. Better than most films coming out today, especially in their franchises, but not worth a single rewatch. I don't like the prequels and I would rather watch those again than rogue one. It's not bad or good, just boring.
the show Andor made me realize that there is no way to take any of this shit seriously with the John Williams soundtrack playing in the back. If you want a "gritty" Star Wars movie, don't hire John Williams
>>220717398someone telling you they dont like disney wars but say this is the only good one is the ultimate midwit test
>Jeff Bezos orders a new LOTR movie>It's about a brave pretty white girl and her racially eclectic friends (But some of them are from China, not Middle Earth, they are actually straight up from China) who travel to Mordor together>They sacrifice their lives to meet one goal: Blowing a secret hole in the side of Mt Doom so that Frodo will be able to get into it at the end of RotKThat's what I thought of Rogue One.Completely fucking retarded, didn't understand Star Wars, the characters sucked, ruined the original film, and is not canon.
>>220717727in the sense that it's just as bad as all other Disney Star Wars, just in a different way?
Jyn Erso = Jan OrsCassian Andor = Kyle KatarnThey wanted to have their cake and eat it too by capitalizing on EU fans without actually making an EU movie because that would make some disney exec screech in anger.
>>220717398>does it still hold upIt sucked 10 years ago and it still sucks today.
It's extremely elevated because of Andor. I didn't care for it much before that
>>220717526Because that would rob the scene of it's terror and be ultimately unfulfilling plus also break the canon of the overall story.
>>220717749essentially. i wouldnt say its as bad as the other disney wars though, but that doesnt mean its good. far too reliant on callbacks to the previous movies. if something as uninspired as rogue one is the bar for them, they have shit taste.
>>220717398This is basically all you need.
>>220717810I could have warmed her
>>220717824I'd argue for Genndywars and a dash of The 3D Clone Wars
>>220717591she's been on the run her whole life, this isn't hard to believe, you are talking as if she's some valley surburb girl
>>220717788>>220717824>>220717886>star wars showsyou guys are joking right
>>220717927Well you can just fuck off if you don't like Star Wars you know
>>220717879goodness me
>>220717879I’d Rogue her OneIf you know what I wunna wunga
>>220718140To be fair everything else star wars usually focuses on since the prequels is very capeshit. It's all about laser sword wielding monks with super powers. That blind guy in rogue one is borderline understated by comparison. At least in the OT you had regular ol' human guy Han to balance out the magical space wizard plotline.
>>220718154Fuck are you talking about?
>>220717398It's passable. It's very indicative of the current state of star wars when saying it's inoffensive and doesn't insult the viewer is considered high praise. It's on a similar level as the new Mando movie.
>>220717879woah sex
One question I had is where are all the Bothan spies that mon mothma said died? We know what a Bothan looks like but none appear in this movie. Are they even mentioned?
>>220718338That was RotJ was it not? And the empire fed them the information
>>220718410You're right, I had it mixed up.
>>220718338Its actually one guy named Manny Bothans.
>>220717879FRANTIC BUNNY SEX
>>220718294>that interview where she says she’s never liked condoms
>>220719069based queen
>>220719069Nobody likes condoms.
>>220717605What did Ars Technica do?
>>220717879FakeShe's a prude that only got naked in obscure show and it was barely a nude scene
>>220717824Get rid of Blandor and it would be a solid pic
>>220717398>One decade latercovid really fucked up my perception of time, damn it
>>220717398never seen it but bunny is cute
>>220717398It didn’t fully hold up then, the reshoots are obvious, the characters flat, and the digital faces never looked right. It’s a YouTube fan film on a big scale. Patchy and with bits of pandering fan service like the corridor scene to distract from the flaws, but culturally we’ve taken a big swing towards that sort of thing. It’s better than some of what followed but has a lot of issues
>>220717944You’re not a real fan unless you have all the slop with a logo on it
>>220717756>Cassian Andor = Kyle KatarnOnly Cavill could have played Katarn.
>>220719615Why, was he balding with tiny hands?
>>220717398Such a shame that she's not my wife and her children aren't mine. Would marry her at any point in her life.
>>220719638Sweet thoughts anon

I NEED BUN BUN'S BUNS ON MY FACE
LIESDECEPTIONSBOR GULLET WILL KNOW THE TRUTH
>>220717398Out of the Disney flicks, its probably my favourite.
>>220717398Yeah
>>220717756It's amazing how they claim they didn't adapt anything from the EU. (1/2)
>>220717756Less known is the fact that Baylan Skoll from the Ahsoka show clearly fulfills the role of Joruus C'baoth from the Thrawn books, while looking like Montross from the Jango Fett Bounty Hunter game.
>>220717398Still the best of the sequels after the original 3 eps.
>>220717453Too much
>>220717499Really? Krennic was a highlight and Jyn was qt. The only thing that annoyed me was the cantina guys showing up for no reason at all.
>>220717591I have a feeling RO was meant to be the basis for a TV show that Lucasfilm was kicking around before Disney bought up everything and distilled the idea into a 2 hour flick. You can't really expect to care about the characters getting killed off when you only just met them.
>>220717810>>220721221My favorite kind of scene.
It had the best space battle out of all the Disney shit at least
>>220717434I'd rather suck dick and eat shit.
Are these jannies serious? Delete my shit but leave up borderline porn. Nice.
>>220721940too late, I'm afraid.I needed naked Alison Brie (still in her 20s), as Annie from Community, sometime 2009-2012.
>>220722038They hate your shit and wank to this
>>220721999it's a 2 hour movie anon...
>>220722038>PG-13 partial-nudity>borderline pornare you complaining about 4chan, its polices, and moderation?
>>220719069Source?
>>220717398It's one of the better movies of Disney Wars (Not saying much)
>>220722232It's based. The end scene with Vader makes me mad I listened to /tv/ chuds and didn't see it in the theater.
>>220722593This. Also, the trailer showing the T-fighter rising up above the dock, but not being included in the movie sorta cancels that out.
>>220722649>I rebel.To be fair, we had every reason to suspect girlboss woke nonsense.
>>220717398Nah, it’s trash. I rewatched it recently and it’s just as boring as it was when it came out. There is absolutely nothing at stake in the last 45 minutes of the movie
Why are British women so hot?
>>220720445Christ. I’ve never seen this picture before but recognise three of those dickheads because they’re always stalking celebrities around London. Absolute scum
>>220723369Probably to just sell it on auction sites too.
It was one of those hilariously poorly edited hackjob movies that were frighteningly common in the late 2010swith retards saying shit like>reshooting 40% of the movie is totally normal, you alt right bigot!meanwhile the jews got a better handle on that shit post corona and now mysteriously nobody is saying it's the status quo anymore
>>220717398>does it still hold up?Yeah. Still holds up as total fucking shit, just like it was when it first came out.
>>220717486It was an over-the-top callback to a previous Star Wars movie???
>>220719069>never liked condoms>only two childrenDoes this mean her husband mostly does her in the other hole?
>>220717398better than it shouldve been with the corporate interference , one of the small percentage of disney projects that didn't screw the pooch
Quick, red pill me on some EU kino.
>>220722885They take all the hotness from british men
>>220717398Probably the closest thing to a decent star wars movie insofar that's possible.
>>220717398Andor into Rogue One is the best Star Wars experience there is and I saw the original in '77. The prequels are unwatchable garbage.
>>220721999ok Homelander
>>220723990LOL
>>220717398No. Andor ruined it, unironically. Absolutely awful cancerous show.
>>220721221Whelp, time to go break my nofap streak
>>220717398No. I still can not make out and understand a word the black guy in it was supposed to be saying.
>>220717398It copied Halo Reach
>>220723391Oh yeah, they’re 100% definitely dealers and not fans
>>220717398only good nu star wars film
>>220723895Thrawn trilogy is what the sequel movies could/would have been (not necessarily *should*)The duology afterward is okay too, I suppose. Outbound Flight is optional, haven't read it.
>>220717398trying to watch it again after finishing the andor series was kinda rough
>>220717944>andor>star wars
>>220717434>Would y-Neither.>But-NEITHER.
>>220717398One of the sequels had a middle aged woman with dyed hair and they also casted a nigger in it. Thats a personal attack to my virginity and therefore I rate all Star Wars movies as 1 out of 100 tomatoes, including rogue one.
>>220717398The last 5 minutes with Vader were cool. Couldn't have given less of a fuck about anything else that happened in the movie way back when I watched it on the big screen. Disney has literally never made a good product.
>>220717398Kyle Kataran got the plans from the secret base on Danutaanything else is gay and lame
>>220725133they gave cassian the same pistol that kyle hadsomeone working on it was a knower
>>220725171Disney add shit like that precisely so people have ANYTHING to talk about when it comes to new shows.
>>220717398It's shit. It was always shit. The amount of love it gets is fucking bizarre.
>>220723895Timothy Zahn's Thrawn books. The Legends ones, not the canon ones.Darth Plagueis book.Clone Wars, Dark Times, Knights of the Old Republic, Crimson Empire, Legacy and New Republic comics by Dark Horse.X-Wing Rogue Squadron comics and books.As an added bonus, check out the book version of Revenge of the Sith. It's fucking brilliant.
>>220725225name three (3) things that it did poorly.
>>220725284Weren't the Republic Commando books really good too?
>>220717398It gave us Andor. It’s only good retroactively
It becomes a much better film if watched straight after the last episode of Andor. The plot actually makes sense and you know who characters are.
>>220725301Good shout. I haven't had a chance to check them out myself but I've heard good stuff.
>>220725292Have remotely interesting main characters.
>>220717398I literally cannot remember anything about it. I can't recall the story. I can't recall any names. Certainly not any lines. I think there was a cgi Darth Vader in it. Just utterly forgettable slop.
>>220725292Well it's been a decade but...1. Absolute dogshit characters, literally random Chinese dudes and that random black dude2. Nonsensical plot like that black guy who dies for no reason3. The speech Felicity Jones made had me rolling with laughter at how awful it was.It's a terrible movie.
>>220717398All the characters are pretty bland and shallow, so you ultimately don't end up caring what happens to them either. It's basically just a treadmill to the finish with some meaningless action setpieces. And Andor actually being good doesn't retroactively make Rogue One any better.
c'mon now this guy was based
>>220725215yeah you're probably rightstill neat that anyone even knew who the fuck kyle katarn is in that soulless place
>>220725284>As an added bonus, check out the book version of Revenge of the Sith. It's fucking brilliant.I also recommend reading Labyrinth of Evil before that and Dark Lord after it. It's a nice trilogy that does a great job of expanding upon Anakin's gradual decline and transformation.
>>220725494Every Disney product has that one token fan who doesn't have contempt for the franchise and its fans, and is allowed to influence the product every once in a while. Even Acolyte had really cool lightsaber fight ideas.
>>220717591It was heavily reworked with reshoots. They paid Tony Gilroy like 10 million to take over from Gareth Edwards. There ots stuff in the trailers that could not have happened in the cut that was released; like Jyn and Cassian running across the beach and through the imperial base with the Death Star Plans on her belt. The action figure of her that came out before the movie did, was called "Sergeant Jyn Erso", even.
>>220717716Micheal Giaccino did Rogue One score. It sounded like it was trying to sound like SW without sounding like SW.
>>220717398literally the best nustarwars movie. And the only gopod one. Second place (far away) goes to Solo.
>>220725488>gets keked by cgi Tarkinkwab
>>220718338The bothans died getting intel that the Death Star 2 was being built above Endor moon, was unfinished, and that Sheev was about to visit it. Which was all shit Sheev wanted the Alliance to know.
>>220725717>It sounded like it was trying to sound like SW without sounding like SW.A star wars movie that's ashamed of being a star wars movie. And the whole disney catalogue is like that.
>>220721878John Knoll pitched it as a movie.
>>220721999What's stopping you?>>220722038What'd they delete?
>>220722593>spoiler tagging for a decade old movie
>>220725862They tried to play it both ways, to be worshipful and treat the OT like sacred texts and also to treat the whole thing like it’s a joke. 2010s Hollywood brain.
>>220717810all thigh no hips is such a strange build
>>220726026Not fertile, but I'd love her anyways.
>>220717802> Come here, my soaking wet little Bunny...
>>220724785Bunny Bum.
>>220725717>>220725929Define "like Star Wars" because even within the OT there are massive changes in the dynamics of the soundtracks and soundscapes. They also went from a tight knit and fairly direct hero's journey to a sweeping space opera designed to sell toys.
>>220726119Just listen to the opening theme after the first scene if you're having a hard time grasping what I said.
>>220726167I'm not failing to grasp anything. I asked you a direct pointed question which would have an answer rooted in discrete definable metrics (music theory and composition). But I'm sure to you "it's orchestrated and it's Williams so it's all the same!"
>>220725083Andor is Star Wars.
>>220725015Thrawn trilogy is more like looking into an alternative universe where they kept making movies with the original cast, throughout the 90's.It doesn't work as a standin for the 2010's trilogy. Everyone is too young.
>>220725717There's a couple minutes of good music but the NOT Star Wars theme is embarrassing.https://youtu.be/DCVRg3s_Fs0?si=Bn4_f7ReZKqUsvYI&t=214What were they thinking?
And or?And or what, motherfucker? Speak English.
>>220721940i don't understand what changed that makes her hideous in this vs the most attractive woman ever a few years before. like what specific thing is different?
>>220727186she got bogged and now has resting bitch face
>>220717398
>>220727186Lighting
Weird how they never did CG necromancy again
>>220717398Neither Rogue One nor Andor is relevant if I decide those are non-canon to me. Not to mention The Rogue One and Andor were so boring to watch, and none of it felt like Star Wars.
>>22071739>Muh magic chanting.Why does Disney fundamentally not understand the force?
>>220727319You wanted more?
>>220717810What movie is this?
>>220728099Chalet Girl.
>>220726026Shes smol n cute
>>220728599Thank you
>>220728797No worries.
>>220728828Bunny loves her carrots.
>>220725526You don’t get it. Disney knows all of EU and wants all of it because fans love it. At the same time they’re yids so they don’t want to pay royalties to the original creators. That’s why C-3PO suddenly has a red arm. That why the falcon has a different shaped antenna or some cargo shit in the center. That’s why you get ATATs but with a hole in the middle. That way you get all the fans to recognize product while not having to pay a dime for royalties. It’s not some fans product of love for EU, it's a kid copying an essay while changing the minimum required to not get caught.

>>220729104Look really closely and you’ll find one detail that’s different. It’s always one detail.
>>220726275True. It's Star Wars.
Why do they do it?
This is the trve prequel trilogy
>>220729419
>>220729419Based and true
>>220717756Andor isn't a Gary Stu
>>220729604He was kino as usual.
I thought it was good because I dislike jedi slop, but I like the Star Wars universe.
>>220725116
>>220725284>Timothy Zahn's Thrawn books, not the canon ones.They're alright. My nigga Eli Vanto is pretty cool.
>>220725907
Felicity is beautiful. The CGI is quite good.Its missing some shit from the trailers that could have been cool.It doesn’t have meme-able dialogue.It doesn’t have a happy ending. They shove leia into the end to lighten it up. The main droid is probably too scary. Needs more cute stuff. But it looks like OT star wars.7.0/10
>>220730402>It doesn't have meme-able dialogue.
>>220730451>Ira BelleI thought she was talking to Mon Mothma?
>>220717398People who say they like this movie really only like a handful of "cool scenes", that's it. They don't like the movie itself, just those scenes.
>>220730402
>>220720727at least they didnt ruin Komari Vosa
Wasn't this move basically just Halo Reach but in Star Wars
I would say it's extremely memorable. Of coruse I'm going to rewa5tch the redlettermedia vid about it to see what people thought on release. It has some weakesses but it's stayed the test of time so far.
>>220717398I would like to ejaculate in her vagina if you understand the allegorical theme I am presenting here
>>220717868Get in line buddy.
Movie was boring except for the climax. All the rebel activity was pretty epic.
>>220717398Felicity > toothy McFiveheadRogue one was the only good disneywars movie
>>220725883All I said was she has nice feet and they deleted it.
No
>>220717398>does it still hold upIt never did
>>220728927and toast too!
>>220727305it's not lighting because you can see her in all kinds of lighting today and she still looks completely different to annie. something different about her eyes
>>220717824Andor was great, anyone against it is a fucking nostalgia retard kid, for the first time Star wars was a solid story
>>220734062Andor is not Star Wars.
>>220734527Neither are the prequels
>>220734570Based.
>>220723827you realize there are birth control methods other than condoms right
>>220726275Andor wasn't actually all that. It was exhaustively dialogue-driven, meaning most episodes were people having meaningful conversations about something or other. I frankly did not care for the lesbian love scene, the attempted forcible rape, the occasional harsh profanity, or the other ugly jarring un-Star-Warsy notes. It was, however, superbly acted and had its high points.And of course, it had Syril and Dedra huffing and puffing in that hot steamy space closet. We will always have that moment, anons.
>>220728828> "Bunny, I want you to chop these carrots for me. If you eat any of them like last time you get spanked and put in the Naughty Bunny Cage."
>>220734527It is Star Wars. It ironically actually feels closer to the OT than the prequels or sequels, despite its more adult tone.It does the stuff Lucas wanted to do but couldn't because Lucas can't write for shit (he has characters explain the plot).Andor is basically the Wrath of Khan of Star Wars; made by a person who was not a fan (Meyer/Gilroy), who ended up making it one of the best of the franchise.
