Star Wars: Rogue One

[erasure fan1]

It looks pretty good, it didn't get me as excited as that first force awakens trailer did but still looks good. It's kind of surprising to me how close to the vest they are still holding things with this one. The average person doesn't really get what this movie is so I hope the full trailer tells a more complete story.

Mon Mothma! I may have squealed a bit in my office.

Interesting how the star wars movies have centered around a strong female character. It's a pretty cool change but could this be done to get girls more interested in the franchise?

 

[GeneralZod]

This is gonna be good...



My personal feeling is that this could surpass TFA. I enjoyed TFA but feel like it was too much of ANH copy.
Classic Stormtroopers! AT-ATs! Take my money now!!

I didn't know I wanted this movie as badly as I now do.

Funny, I just showed my wife the trailer and her reaction was "Another female lead? Why, when they already have Rey?"

For realz the other studios should just stop trying. Call me a pixie duster or a fanboi or a shill or whatever, but between Star Wars, Pixar, Disney Animation, and the MCU, that's about my movie going for an entire year.

Now if there were only an alternative to their garbage live-action classic remakes, their slate would be utterly dominant.

That score...

SW seems to have realized what Marvel hasn't. If the movie is good it doesn't matter if the lead is male or female.

If you dare to brave Social Media and comment sections, this is by far the main thing people are complaining about. I suppose I understand from a moviegoing perspective w/ Rey and TFA coming out a year before RO, but remember, chronologically there were 3 movies and 40 years of male leads between this movie and TFA. Why is it ok for the OT AND the PT to have male leads, but not ok for the two newer films to female leads? I don't get it.

Whether it's to draw in more female fans or simply to show the diversity that likely would exist in a Rebellion in a Galaxy Far, Far Away, it really doesn't matter as long as the story is good and makes sense. Personally, I'm super excited.

Don't go in to the comments online unless you want to see a lot of angry men. Waaaah why another girl?!?!

So, other than the little bit of voice work in TFA, I think Rogue One is our first returning on-screen prequel actor resuming their role in the Disney era. (Yay for Genevieve O'Reilly!)

I just wonder if it's intentional or just here is another really cool star wars hero. I love Felicity Jones and pretty much everything she was in (including crappy Amazing Spiderman 2). Her character just might top Rey as my favorite female SW character. They both been way better than Leia or Padme.

At least this time she will be on screen. I think every scene she was in ROTS was cut.

She looks amazing!

 

[Thessair]

She looks amazing!

It's ridiculous how excited I am about her return and, absolutely yes, she looks amazing!

trailer looks interesting. glad to see Disney is expanding the SW universe. I appreciate what Lucas gave us, but he'd prob never had done this after the prequels.

 

[Phroobar]

I wonder how the crew of the Ghost (SW:Rebels) will fit into this movie? I guess the last season is suppose to lead up to this movie. Maybe Ashoka is still alive?

Would it be possible to see real life versions of cartoon characters?

Mon Mothma! I may have squealed a bit in my office.

Yeah, and she is a pretty good likeness of the original actress. I really like what I am seeing so far in this trailer. I think it would be really cool if the movie ends with the first scene of A New Hope.

I wouldn't be shocked to see Hera in the background somewhere.
