^ Probably my favorite shot from the trailers and I was super curious what that moment was. Now, we may never know...

Are you kidding me. There will be at least 3 versions of this film. One of them will have this scene

How many Death Stars will they build?

Also, is this taking place after the last movie?

I'm hoping this is an attempt at a joke...

I just googled it. Found out it takes place between 2 other movies.

Sorry

To put it in perspective, it's rumored the Rouge One ending will be the same scene as how A New Hope opens (with Leia giving R2D2 the stolen Death Star plans on her ship, being chased by a Star Destroyer).

Yep. I mean, this is the spoiler thread and this isn't even really a spoiler, but I'm pretty sure these guys are referencing Tarkin. It's definitely an actor who has died, who they brought back to "life" with CGI, and the only person I can think of who could fit that bill is Tarkin. If so, that really sucks. When will these guys learn that it's so much better to just not go down that road (re: young Bridges in Tron: Legacy as well). It's just not necessary and FAR too distracting. Heck, for this one in particular, even if he looked and moved perfectly, it's still jarring because, you know, that actor is DEAD.

I dunno, I think it would be alright and his character is pretty integral to the Death Star.

TCTTS I hope you are right that it is Tarkin.. because am I the only one that is now afraid that Jar Jar is in this movie. I mean I would have had the same reaction to him back in Eps 1.

It's funny, because I read another tweet saying the CGI on a main bad guy was chillingly well done... who knows what to believe!

Here is a tweet to make you smile:

If this CGI character is indeed Tarkin, it's like Ehrlich totally forgot that in ANH he destroyed an entire planet after Leia told him the location of what turned out to be a former rebel base on Dantooine. An entire planet with all inhabitants.

Its very obvious this guy has never watched anything on the SyFy channel if he thinks its the worst CGI ever. Thus is opinions are now nullified

Small prize to pay to bring order to the galaxy. By comparison it wasn't any worse than droning a wedding in Iraq

Not that I disagree in concept they're similar, but that's magnitudes of difference in impact.

We do it to protect a country, they do it to protect the galaxy. Just as proportionally appropriate.

I'm not so sure that the Empire does it to "protect" the galaxy so much that they do it to subjugate it, but I really don't feel like debating this today.

The millions of innocent contractors thst lost thier lives on the death Stars would support my stance.

The empire was legally founded and is the legitimate government of the galaxy.

TFA fell later. It seems like it hovered around 98% the first day of reviews.

I'm thinking the initial rating will be something like 99% but eventually settle somewhere in the low 90's

Bought tickets for next Friday and am going to try to read Catalyst before hand. Anyone read it yet?
Yes. Its pretty boring, but its nice backstory. I think it'll help better understand Rogue One.
I'm really hoping I can understand Rogue One just fine without having to read a book beforehand.
