Rogue One was bold and took balls. It was, however, kinda boring until the climatic battle andi had problems with the heroine on screen vs what was advertised. I liked that it was a 'different' star was movie though and it had a lot of potential... could have been better. solid-ish though
I felt that the live cutscenes from the video game, the Dark Forces series, this movie adapted ideas from was far more exciting.
It felt as if I was watching a British version of a Star Wars movie, even though the only well known American actor cast was Forest Whitaker, who knocked it out the park, by the way...
Oh, and Jimmy Smits!

..and what was the point of a CG performance of Darth Vader?

?
I can understand Tarkin considering he's a computer generated reincarnation made flesh or even Princess Leia but an actor (anyone actually) costumed with the cape, outfit and helmet could've easily played Vader without any of the pre/post-production costs and/or hassles behind the computer.
There was nothing fundamentally bad about TFW i guess. It was just such a rehash of the OT... kind of sick of the "jedi in exile bc we failed" sh*t... i wanted to see Luke's Jedi academy.
I also think all the mystery behind everything (who is snoke, what are the knights of ren, who are reys parents and why is she good at everything, why did luke leave) to be a gigantic f*cking cop out and ridiculous. It only exists to keep people talking in between movies.
and finn being a bitch
Y'know how one can tell when a movie isn't very good...?
--- when you hardly remember anything from it.
That's why when you commented that Finn getting beat up by a stormtrooper in 'The Force Awakens' earlier in this thread, I wasn't being rude... I honestly don't remember the scene 'cause I was tryin' to follow the storyline.
What's interesting is that when George Lucas worked on the Star Wars movies, I was willing to walk into the theaters with no expectations, or anything... and be pleasantly surprised.

These new Star Wars movies...?
I wouldn't even walk into the theaters to see them. Why? Because the
George Lucas Quality Seal of Approval™ just isn't there.
NOW, I understand why George shoots Star Wars the way he did.
'The shoe is on the other foot now', as the idiom goes... it's the fans who wanted to be George Lucas' turn to catch the heat for screwing up Star Wars!

Anyway...
Last night, was checking out some of the winners, nominees and participants of the
69th annual Emmy Awards and noticed that one of the bruthas winning multiple awards was
Donald Glover earning one particularly for
Outstanding Lead Actor - Comedy Series from the show,
Atlanta.
If I'm not mistaken (and correct me if I am), this is the brutha who is cast as young,
Lando Calrissian in a up-coming Star Wars movie.
Listening to Mr. Glover make his acceptance speech, yeah... I can picture him playin' the charismatic gambler. This is Lando.
