[@GrayWoIf]

Wait so the Rogue One team was some kind of...suicide squad?

[@constablesolosolave1761]

GrayWoIf Except they were actually funny, likable and died

[@thegroove14]

We don't talk about that Hot Topic garbage. The worst Joker interpretation yet. A generic Will Smith performance. What more can I say?

[@Alphazor77]

GrayWoIf The REAL and more awesome suicide squad

[@Jerome-iwnl]

made my day, lol.

[@topKingLee14k]

GrayWoIf 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 WTF yes dude yes it is 😂😂😂😂

[@BlueHooloovoo]

The ending with Vader killing all those rebels was a scene I've always wanted to see happen in Star Wars. Seeing Vader cut loose and just slaughter people was amazing.

[@brianmason187]

BlueHooloovoo same here. he was one pissed off sith!

[@Ulqui_210]

BlueHooloovoo Heck, Star Wars The Force Unleased video game showed that as you play as him in the prologue, and it is awesome

[@BlueHooloovoo]

Sasuke210000 It's just nice to finally see it in live-action.

[@livinglightning9312]

BlueHooloovoo The sad thing is the possibility of seeing it again is dim considering this goes straight into episode 4 and Vader dies in episode 6. The only hope we have is if they make a prequel to this. How and what topic? Don't know. I can only see an Obi-Wan film with Vader vaguely in it in separate scenes.

[@BlueHooloovoo]

Living Lightning Well when Vader survived the destruction of the Death Star in his tie fighter he flew off into space. What did he do between that and Empire Strikes Back? They could make a side story about that.

[@youngsmitty347]

This is probably the first movie I've seen in theaters that had people clapping and cheering at the end of a movie. And I was proud to be apart of it.

[@GrayWoIf]

Logan Smith really? I see that way too often even suicide squad people clapped

[@cocob0l0]

Logan Smith Whenever a cameo appeared everyone screamed when I saw it

[@JakeG-gp4qt]

People clapped for Rogue One and La La Land. At least for the theaters I was in.

[@liaminator4950]

OMG, Me too!

[@youngsmitty347]

Eh, I live in a small town. The only time I really had something similar to a reaction in a movie theater was when a guy yelled out "Holy shit!" when Ant-Man became Giant Man.

[@ryanflaherty3417]

It’s weird to see Jeremy happy when talking about Star Wars A lot has changed

[@corbanblake8359]

Yeah, I just saw this in my suggested videos list. When I heard him sing the song, I genuinely felt sad.

[@Bceltic43]

[@NexusKin]

Well, to be fair, people nowadays actually regard this as the only Disney Star Wars entry that was actually good, so his happiness for this aged quite well!

[@checksoverstripes2498]

That Vader scene was one of the greatest scenes in cinema history.

[@kevinscott3047]

DurtySprite As I live and breathe, that Vader sequence was one of the most epic moments I've witnessed in a movie.

[@darkfu11]

everything from the intense "we know who that is in the dark," to vader's first iconic inhalation in that scene, to when his red light saber lights up the hall way and reveals himself..... my goodness, i had to catch my breath during that scene. that one span of about half a minute alone had better suspense than most movies that are considered suspense. granted, i'm pretty sure the lore and pop culture behind the darth vader character had some help with that, but still.... epic

[@rewster7]

You need to see more cinema.

[@jonathanorozco6196]

It felt like being trapped with the Grim Reaper! No matter how hard you try and defend yourself,escape,or beg for help death will always come.

[@tannerlucas4351]

That scene was the most daunting, grave, and powerful scenes I've ever seen. I was in awe at how Vader lifts the rebel up to the ceiling, deflects some shots, the. Slices him in half while still striding forward. That was the best ending to a Star Wars movie I've ever seen.

[@ScarletSpeedy]

I got so attached to Jyn and the team And when they all died I was secretly crying in my popcorn

[@JPkeo]

Kittie Harambe that shit hurt man. the beach scene really hurt me. Horrifying scene, I went with 8 year olds and I had to lie about jyn and andor's fate. won't take kids to this movie again. so brutal.

[@ScarletSpeedy]

jack Keo Yeah man That shit hurt badly but I give credit to Edwards he made the characters attachable and then they showed the Darkness of war instead of down playing it by far for me this beats force awakens

[@cocob0l0]

Kittie Harambe The moment they decided to blow up Scarif, I felt so much hatred towards the Empire. I never had a problem with them but as the killed the Rogue One squad I just couldn't handle it.

[@ScarletSpeedy]

Jasmine Chauhan I know how you feel after I finished watching Rogue one I went home and watched A new hope just to see that Dount Blow up 😂 😂

[@matthewk4912]

Think about all the innocent people they killed on Alderaan and all the other people that would have been killed if the Rebels hadn't stopped them. The Empire is evil

[@bsbrickfilms9286]

Anyone else realize that the weapon of jynn's father killed jynn

[@bsbrickfilms9286]

***** no, good catch I'll have to look for that. Tarkin's face when he found out he could kill krennic though

[@lovetekman]

Jose Santayana wow your right, I was too in the moment to notice that

[@FlyingwithFire]

its funny as krennic discovered the death star had a weakness before tarkin fired on him if krennic had lived they could have fixed the flaw | tarkin causes his own downfall

[@Commander_Shepard.]

You're guys making me contemplate even MORE about the movie now. :D

[@PolarPhantom]

Krennic died knowing he had completely failed. A fitting end.

[@jediknightgeo]

Honestly I thought the CG for Tarkin and Leia was AMAZING

[@jediknightgeo]

SwenglishGamer I'd have to disagree. I thought it looked tremendously well done.

[@pjamese3]

The CG for those two was great. Tarkin DID look better than Leia (though he was teetering on the brink of the Uncanny Valley.) Actually I thought Red and Gold Leaders looked even better. Totally realistic. Give it 10 years and we may see a science fiction or fantasy movie with totally CG characters that look photo-realistic.

[@StarfallShadow]

Red and Gold Leader were NOT CGI. They took deleted scenes from ANH and spliced in the Rogue 1 background for them.

[@pjamese3]

chakrafiend I stand corrected. I just checked i09's article on that. That's actually even cooler than Rogue One skirting the Uncanny Valley with the two characters.

[@corsijtsma3546]

jediknightgeo that tarkin was cgi I saw immediately. I actually really thought that the girl who played ( it's cgi I know ) was almost an identical actress. fucking hell we won't get dissapointed if they are going to use characters in the movies who's actor died. shortly, the cgi and special effects were top notch

[@FarNoGaming]

The Vader Scene at the end is the greatest scene of all time.

[@blackbox8697]

The acting from the Rebels was phenomenal, You could feel their fear of Vader.

[@africanhistory]

it was what yoda fighting scene was not --believable.

[@ryantheanimator1156]

With the current tech, they can definitely make Yoda more believable than before.

[@africanhistory]

I don't think that was the issue, it was how Yoda was fighting, It just came across as OTT and silly, exactly What G Lucas is known for. Why all the spinning and jumping. If you slow it down it makes no sense. And the 3 Lucas Prequels are full of stupid somersaults and unnecessary flips. Vader scene was believable not OTT

[@Henbot]

Perfect. I felt that if Vader was going to put in it -- he needed to be a terrifying tempest. When you heard his breathing and then the saber turning out-- I just shat my pants

[@BryonLetterman]

Two things. CGI Tarkin was the best and most convincing CGI I've ever seen. To me, it looked exactly like him. Exactly. The CGI Leia looked a little fake. And Vader's final scene slaughtering fools in the hallway was fucking brilliant

[@arraikcruor6407]

They weren't fools. They were brave rebels.

[@riepie]

Arraik Cruor you can be brave and still be a fool

[@NoBrostepPlease]

tarkin looked pretty much cgi, especially his mouth movement

[@DigitalNuggets]

Bryon Letterman Bryon Letterman lmao for me it was opposite, I was a afraid Leia would look different when I saw the back side of her then when I saw her I was like "holy shit" CGI Tarkin, however, at first glance I knew he was CGI

[@shaunpoland5656]

Bryon Letterman it's the opposite man but Vader omg

[@corsijtsma3546]

Aaron how this movie ended was good and amazing to the star wars plot but to see everyone this movie was about dying in the end made me feel bad in some kind of way

[@rean247]

But to be honest, I didn't really care for them when they died. All of the characters were actually pretty weak. This movie is good because of what it does for all of star wars not for what it does for itself.

[@GLASSB182]

Did anyone else hear "Black Saber" right before "Star Dust" in the file base room?

[@bastiangrau2791]

I think it was Darksaber, a reference to the 1995 novel :)

[@athibi9461]

Maybbe less of a reference to the novel and more to the actual weapon. The dark saber was basically the Deathstars superlaser without the rest of the space station. Or am I getting things confused right now?

[@bastiangrau2791]

Well,since the Novel is about the Darksaber it does not really matter if they reference the book or the actual weapon. Obviously they would find the construction plans for the weapon in those archives and not a book ^^ You are correct,the Darksaber was intended as a budget version of the deathstar.

[@athibi9461]

Bastian Grau You're right, it doesn't really matter. Just wanted to make sure I remembered it correctly ;)

[@swamidan277]

Maybe its a connection to Sabine from star wars rebels; in the most recent episode she had gotten a short black lightsaber

"Do not choke on your aspirations." Rouge One (Chokes a dude) "Apology accepted captain Needah." Empire Strikes Back (Kills a dude) "We would be honored if you would join us." Empire Strikes Back (After being shot at) "I find your lack of faith disturbing." Star Wars (Chokes a dude) "Perhaps I can find new ways to motivate them." Jedi (Threatening "Lazy" workers) "The Emperor is not as forgiving as I am." Jedi (Underplaying his badassery) I don't think the Rouge one line is out of character for Vader at all.

[@hazza3]

It was a much grittier star wars movie than others which were very friendly fantasy adventures, but this one felt like a war movie with a lot on the line if they failed their quest. There was a real sense of urgency in this rather than wonder.

[@Spooky_Psyche]

YES. That's what I hated about TFA, there were absolutely no stakes and it was just kinda boring because of that. The humor was overdone too. It felt like a Marvel movie, or pretty much anything else Disney touches. But Rogue One was beautifully done both cinematically and content wise.

[@mawile3037]

The character development left me wanting, other than that the final act was amazing

[@kennethha416]

@@Spooky_Psyche Yeah if you hated TFA because it had no stakes then you should probably hate literally every other SW movie

[@jordanestes1997]

@@kennethha416 ...can't really speak for the person you're replying to, but considering I kind of agree, just wanted to defend the point. I think it's valid to feel like there were no stakes in TFA more than other star wars movies because it was kind of a retread. everything had already been done before, the third death star was a tired idea and it never felt like more than a movie after that shit came in, it never sucked me in and made me feel for what was happening. It just felt like going through the motions. I think what works in rogue one is that the stakes feel more personal, we know they're going to get the plans, but we don't know if they're going to be alright, so we end up caring about the people more than the fate of the universe, which is kinda what sucks me in usually. empire is the same way for me, the fact it doesn't have to resolve and can end on a cliffhanger, it let the writers kind of make the stakes more personal. We end up caring about what's going to happen to han by the end of it, and I think caring about the characters, the people, is really the stakes that are more engaging to watch. I agree that the big ending of the original star wars is more for fun than like really thinking the good guys won't win, but it hadn't been done before and was a wild ride. I don't really like return of the Jedi because it's a retread, I end up not caring about the death star in that move either, has that same going through the motions kinda shit, but then again, they have the Darth Vader luke drama which is pretty engaging so it's kind of alright. The personal stakes are clearer to me. I don't even remember why the characters are fighting at the end of TFA, I don't give a shit about the death star, and the fact Kylo Ren gets his ass beat probably blew the feeling of tension also. Long story short, the more personal the drama the more feels at stake, once you care about the characters, it's like even shit that doesn't kill them starts to hold weight, like you just want them to be ok. I didn't ever feel like any of the characters wouldn't be ok in a lot of the star wars movies, episode 3 was ok at it, but a lot of them just felt like, get on with it, I know Anakin's not gonna die in a bug factory or whatever, can we just go. I wouldn't say there wasn't any stakes in the star wars movies though, they did the personal stakes alright sometimes

[@adamstringer7092]

The scene where Darth Vader massacres the Rebels was awesome and terrifying.

[@MrKhudh]

in the movie at the time in the rebellion "there is no rogue one" and in the empire strikes back there is a rogue two. it brought new layer to the call sign in the sense that it was to honor the memories of the rogue one. i thought that was nice

[@LilJOVs]

Yea, I loved that reference as well. Here's some info on Rogue Squadron. starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Rogue_squadron

[@videotimebaby90]

not to be that guy, but it's because "Rogue Leader" is considered rogue one followed by rogue two. it's similar how to there's no "Red One" but there's a Red Leader and then a Red Two. but i like your thing

[@Keehful]

A New Hope: "I find your lack of faith disturbing" The Empire Strikes Back: "Apology accepted, Captain Needa" (right after choking him to death) Return of the Jedi: "The Emperor is not as forgiving as I am" Vader has actually played some puns through the saga.

Easter Egg: If you notice how Vader ignites his saber in the hall battle/slaughter in Rogue One, he does it in the exact same pose as he does when he confronts Obi Wan on the Death Star in Star Wars.

gutz1981 That was the first thing I noticed, and was noticing his fighting style is "comparable" in A New Hope.

I'd say his fighting style looks like Episode 3 Anakin for sure. We didn't have any of this fast paced fierce lightsaber usage in the OT.

To be fair, he only really fought lightsabre users in the OT. It requires a different approach.

[@aliceduren6542]

[@Jugem16]

Can I just say how beautiful all the design and artistry work was? Because I marvel at how the art departments made the visual aesthetics feels like they belonged to the original trilogy era. The beige materials, the way the ships moved, K2-SO (a fittingly archaic design), even the way the starry abyss looked. Just _wow_.

Jugem16 this movie was beautifully made

[@mohammedfahedfarvardin6841]

Jugem16 don't forget the costumes!

[@purpleemerald5299]

Jugem16 I think it was because of the practical effects and all the well-designed and heavily detailed costumes. They didn't use CGI unless absolutely necessary. My one complaint would be how they used the Motion capture Tarkin and Leia. The CGI was very convincing, and I really felt like someone was standing there in the movie. But the movements were unnatural, which ultimately gave it away, and I found it a little distracting just knowing it was CGI, and not a real person. They pulled it off amazingly, all things considered, but they should of used Tarkin and Leia in more discreet shots. If they did that, they would of pulled it off perfectly.

[@815StoneCold]

Honestly my favorite Star Wars movie. I was surprised when I heard some people were disappointed, I understand being disappointed by the Force Awakens, but this is the Star Wars movie I thought people wanted. Guess you can't impress everybody.

I don`t know of anyone who was disappointed with The Force Awakens. Maybe someone trying to act like a super sophisticated Star Wars scholar.

[@ed1rko17]

The Force Awakens had flaws that didn't affect the quality of the movie. Rogue One had huge flaws that really dampened the experience, and made you have to consciously outweigh the pros vs the negatives. Rogue One also had really good potentially and some really cool ideas, but didn't deliver on them and they fell short (i.e. the Vader scene could have been amazing if he was killing the main characters, but instead they gave them unmemorable deaths and had Vader murder a bunch of rebels that we didn't care about). The Force Awakens had awesome potential and ideas and fucking delivered on them big time!

It made sense when I was 8 years old watching Star Wars in the 80s. As I said before, Leia said you served with my father in the Clone Wars. That is pretty much all you need to understand that 1) Leia has a father, 2)Obi Wan new her father, and 3) that Leia's father trusts this Obi Wan person to send his daughter to find him.

The Force Awakens didn't have the same flaw as the original Death Star. Han, and Chew placed charges which caused damage from within creating a hole for Poe Dameron to fly through. Once inside he was able to blast the interior destroying Starkiller Base. Because if we all remember, before the hole was created, they were bombing the surface of the weapon which had little to no effect.

[@archibaldsenpai8862]

but it was still a single spot on this planet sized entity which could destroy the whole thing, shielded maybe but still a huge vulnerability

[@FolkLordll]

You shove TNT down the barrel of a tank and it's going to do some damage. The point I'm making is that Jeremy stated that Starkiller Base had the same flaw built into it as the Death Star did, and he asked who made that one. I was making the point that the same flaw was not made into Starkiller Base and the Empire did learn from their mistakes. The only reason Han and Chewie made it through Starkiller Bases shields is because they were in light speed.

[@TX51]

I am sure that if i put some TNT in to the Earth's core it wouldn't blow up the Earth... or if i used said TNT and a nuke it still won't blow up the Earth. There isn't a lot of chain reactions that could destroy the Earth in one go. So, really there is a a huge design flew in Starkiller base. The more i think about TFA the more it just pisses me off. It's was a fun movie but its also fanboy ass.

[@FolkLordll]

TX51 You're comparing the earths core to a structure that isn't a planet at all, that harnesses the power of stars and is waiting to discharge all that stored energy, so when someone punches a hole in that seal and it explodes, you're saying that's the same as if we dug to the center of the earths core? You do realize how dumb that sounds right?

[@TX51]

FolkLordll Yes, I do want to compare the two as this is a fictional situation and it completely stupid from the get go. I'll humour you though. if e=mc2 then all the mass stored in the starkiller base must be equal to its power out put... if so, it shouldn't be to hard to believe that there is enough mass in the earth's core to destroy a planet. the only difference is that in star wars they have found a way to turn all that mass in to energy. so, yes it is the same. I'm not stupid.

It actually makes Force Awakens look kinda bad. Hopefully the director of Rogue One directs more star wars movies in the future, like an Obi-Wan spin off (no, fuck the Han Solo spin off. Terrible idea.). The Cgi of Tarkin was great, but he did look a little too old, older than he did in A New Hope. Princess Leia looked perfect though. And i can't express how much i'm grateful that they fixed the pot hole of the Death Star's weakness. It really makes A New Hope look like a better movie with less flaws. Also, i'm glad they're not afraid to add nods to the prequels too, like Mustafar, Organa etc.

[@reflectionist]

You had me going with the Starkiller base point at first, but you gotta remember: That thing WAS protected; the crew of the Falcon coerced Capt. Phasma to shut down the shield generator. But the First Order had a failsafe, which was conveniently and clumsily sidestepped by the crew of the Falcon just happening to have a bag of explosives. Those explosives did a LOT of damage, but really only enough for one single X-Wing to go in, and circle around blowing the shit out of multiple fuses, etc. I dunno, in my opinion, I felt The Force Awakens went out of its way to show how fucked the Resistance was going into that assault. Does it explain Return of the Jedi's Death Star's weakness?

[@reflectionist]

I love Vader's Pun, by the way. I'm hearing that's not very in-character for him, but I think it helps to bridge the gap between the two trilogies as well. Vader has always used puns, he just got better at them. Perks of the Dark Side exposure, I guess.... wit,. "Oh, you know, Master... I couldn't find a speeder that I really liked, in the right color with the best speed capabilities and all..." "I have the high ground, Anakin!" "Don't... UNDERestimate my power!" "Don't choke on your aspirations." "Apology accepted, Captain Needa." And don't forget, when Han was being interrogated: "They didn't even ask any questions." Vader was just fuckin' with him!

It didn't really effect me as much as I thought it would...I guess I kinda just figured they was going to die.

Aidan Moore Best part about the movie. Rebel scum getting what's coming to them.

[@EdoItachiAnbu]

Hannibal953able FOR THE EMPIRE!!

[@BlueshiftProductions]

It was just beautiful but heartbreaking when Jyn and Cassian were hugging with the destruction coming towards them

The way the movie smoothed out some of the rough edges of the original trilogy alone makes it fantastic. It ties it with the series even though it is a stand alone "spin-off" and does it better than all the winks and call backs in the Force Awakens. Unlike the other prequels it really feels like it enriches the New Hope, it makes some of the scenes in it stronger and make more sense.

Darth Vader's hallway scene was so......freaking.....awesome

[@andytucker5315]

That Vader scene is one of the greatest scenes in movie history.

[@yepimhere5413]

God I miss when a new Star Wars movie was this enjoyable.

[@alcaponeenthusiast5610]

only time Disney managed to make a good Star Wars film

[@EdNorty]

Daisy Ridley as Rey = Better acting Felicity Jones as Jyn = Better character

[@Armkinda]

Jyn is a super underrated character

[@jimmenychristmas7208]

EdNorty better acting... are you fucking serious?

[@TrailerMusic23]

EdNorty completely agree

[@TheTonyEntertainment]

EdNorty whaaat Daisy sucks. Her expressions are always the same. She reminds me of Emilia Clarke

[@danieldainty3523]

Daisy = chin actor like Keira Knightley.

[@kratoscallofduty]

That end Vader scene made it worth watching this movie all by itself.

[@sertaki]

Best Star Wars scene, period. Up until now this was Luke almost falling to the dark side in RotJ for me, but Slasher Vader takes the number one spot easily.

[@DarkMProductions]

Vader in this film was like a monster straight out of a horror film. Even his intro, when he's in the tube, was unsettling. He's just hanging there, limbless, with that iconic breath. And that scene near the end was like something out of a Jason film. But boy, seeing Red Leader and Gold Leader again was amazing, and totally unexpected. Probably some of the best use of stock footage I have ever seen. All the main characters dying was really unexpected as well. I don't know if I liked it as much as Jeremy did, but I really did enjoy it, and was at the edge of my seat through most of it.

[@jayceepooze]

I totally agree with everything Jeremy has said. I would also add that the biggest flaw of the film for me was the lack of character development for Jyn or Cassian. They were both given interesting starting points for their backstories (Jyn with the loss of her family, Cassian with his guilt), but the movie failed to develop their emotional complexity enough to make the audience care about them. I cared more when K2 died. And their quasi-romantic mutual death would have had so much more impact if we'd seen more of an emotional connection between them leading up to that.

[@Haldered]

i suspect there was a lot of deleted/re-shot scenes. i don't think this was a fault of the script,which had all the right pieces in place with just a few little things missing that would've given greater emotional impact. luckily the great acting and overall story still held up.

[@TriggerHappy923]

JayCeePooze idk what's wrong with you, I felt so much for these characters.

[@blshouse]

Especially Cassian coolly murdering his fellow spy, but then later he can't pull the trigger on the Imperial Scientist he knows designed a planet killing super weapon, and has in fact been ordered to kill...

[@genericname34]

We peaked as a species upon the completion of the Vader hallway scene
