He didnt have to kill every single hero in rogue one lol, i think it woulda been the best opportunity to showcase himself to the rebels if he fought some of the notable chars and owned them with ease.
Since it's literally not too long after Vader got his new body after dueling Obi.



Without looking it up, Rogue 1 probably takes place at least 18 years after Revenge of the Sith.

Yeah I'd imagine it was even longer since I always pictured Luke as someone in their mid 20s.

That's something you don't see every day.
When the villain shows up and literally kills every single hero that you've been watching for the whole movie.

That would have been awesome.

Not Donnie Yen though



I thought 7 was shit.

The droid and donnie yen were my favourites in it. Only characters I really cared about, for whatever reason.

Jin and the captain were good. Just didn't have the same affect though. It would have been great to get more out of Mads and Forrest, but I guess they served their purpose.

The big guy with donnie was good in every scene they had together - outside of that he felt a bit forced.


I agree with the peeps saying overall the film felt as if it was lacking some depth.
Space battle was dope, and Vader scene was 10/10 - in fact the third act really picked it up a lot imo

Anyone thought Donnie Yen was going to use his walking stick lightsaber style at the end?

I loved it.

Thought it was slightly worse than Episode 7 but that isn't an insult since I think Ep 7 was great too.

Great nostalgia while also adding solid new characters to the Star Wars universe.


That's an incredible insult, Episode 7 was the worst star wars movie.

It's like 20-30 years, IIRC

I'd like to direct you to episode 1..and 2...

Its also easily better than 3 and 6 imo but some may disagree on 6.

In order imo it's 5476321 with 2 and 1 being interchangeable since both are easily the worst.

I have high hopes for the next Episode. I think they are going to nail it.
