Both Rogue One and Rouge One are trending on twitter. Lol.

Why are the rogue squadron commandos not flying, and why the heck are they like a strange rag tag team of OVERWEIGHT bounty hunters with cains and swords? Guess I'll have to find out like the rest of y'all.
I don't think they are Rogue squadron. Looks like just some recruited street criminals. The name of the movie doesn't = Rogue squadron.
Isn't rogue one just the call sign for the squad leader?
Which is what I would guses is the pilot we see in the command room
quote:Rogue is the squadron name, which I believe is first mentioned in ESB.

quote:Sorry I missed it in the 400 pages of this thread.
I just said that earlier!
quote:If you are referring to the guy (Diego Luna's character) half chuckling at Jyn's response to Mothma, I'm not sure that is Biggs.
I have read that Biggs Darklighter may be a character in this, certainly fits the time line.
quote:I bet it's that planet with the palm trees. Probably not Tatooine. I hope not, anyway.
So in watching that three more times, it is clear that the opening shots are at the Rebel base on Yavin IV. There are obviously shots on the Death Star. But I am pretty sure I saw a moisture vaporator in one of the shots ... could we be returning to Tatooine? I have read that Biggs Darklighter may be a character in this, certainly fits the time line.
I loved hearing that warning siren.
I am looking more forward to this than I ever was to TFA.

My guess, after seeing the trailer, is it's basically referring to the character. She says "I rebel," which could be interpreted as she's a rogue. Doesn't play by anyone's rules.

Is the warning siren the same as the one used in Jedi when the Deathstar 2 was blowing up?

Luna could BE Biggs.

The Wizarding World of Harry Potter at Universal Studios Hollywood just debuted to the public.
After 2 1/2 years of construction, Wizarding World is having its grand opening today. Times staffers are there to bring you the details. Leading up to that, a red carpet event and celebration Tuesday included several actors from the "Harry Potter" films, plus fireworks and a performance by the L.A. Philharmonic.
quote:I don't think they were wasted, per se. I believe the original intent from the get go was simply a cameo appearance. I do think their casting was intentionally embellished, however.
and before a few minutes ago, I never realized how much I wanted to see the Ip Man beat the sh*t out of stormtroopers.
Now, that's all I can think about. I really wish Abrams hadn't wasted the cast of The Raid in TFA; looks like they'd have been awesome in this.

What are the odds she is Rey's mom?
quote:This is kinda how I feel. Just give us new characters. Don't try and tie this in via family to the other films
Rey's mom? Resist the inner-Lucas urge that exists in all of us to tie together every character in the series.
quote:lol I wasn't "hoping" or "predicting" she's Rey's Mom, but its a question you have to ask. IF they were going to relate this movie to TFA, how would they do it? This would definitely be near the top of that list.

quote:I don't think they would do this though, they're going to leave the major reveals to the saga movies. If anything, we'll see an ace pilot named Dameron.quote:lol I wasn't "hoping" or "predicting" she's Rey's Mom, but its a question you have to ask.
