the prequels made it look good

>what is an interesting character
>how do you stay on a scene for more than 1 minute

the opening scene with the music and visuals is the best iv seen in cinematic history

Rogue One was B grade trash

/thread

Rogue One was Seven Samurai, in space.
Garbage rebrand, for garbage fanboys.

you spelled The Empire Strikes Back wrong

this

At first I had my doubt's about this movie, but in the end I found it enjoyable.

Not the best one tho

...

I saw rouge one. I can't name a single character from it. Not can I describe any of the characters by their personalities.

I saw starwars and I knew the name luke skywalker in the first 20 minuets, I knew Princess Leia, Chewy, Obiwan, Darth Vader, by the end of the movie.

Rouge One isn't a star wars movie. It's corporate bullshit. It's a hunger games movie.

THere hasn't been a starwars movie since return of the jedi, and there probably never will be one agian.

this

its not bad and cool that they tried to explain why the death star was so easy to destroy in the first place.

The music

Rogue One was Seven Samurai, but Seven Samurai is breddy gud.

Rogue One was B-Movie Sci-Fi fun.
...and so were eps 4, 5, & 6

Rogue One was fucking good.
Favrit part: when errybuddy dies inna end.
zzzzZIPKAPOW

Holy shit thank you

It was a B until the rebel fleet showed up. That's when you realize that you've been watching a very subtle buildup to a truly epic scene and it instantly transforms into an A+ movie.

When all of those rebel ships just popped into existence right in front of all those imperial ships in orbit around a critical imperial planet, I sat up in my seat and squirmed like a proud grandmother. That scene alone made this the best star wars movie of all time. The whole movie was a perfect crescendo that gradually built up to a grinning-from-ear-to-ear climatic masterpiece.

Anyone saying otherwise is an old fogey, desperately clinging to his childhood. Empire Strikes Back has been supplanted by a new best star wars movie of all time. That's just an objective fact.

Deal with it.

Best Star Wars movie?
This one.

Jar Jar Binks was a Sith Lord

He technically was responsible for the fall of the senate

pfft. come on man.

I'm a oldfag. I was a kid when this came out. It's still my favorite.

I don't know why this gets all the hate. It's a great movie. Lots of lightsabers and Darth Maul. What more can you ask?

>claims to be an oldfag.
>posts movie from 1999 as 'I was a kid'
I had already served 4 years and got out of the Army several years before that movie came out. Get off my lawn you whippersnapper.

Actually it was Force Awakens.

Will stay on your lawn and remind you that all your service was for naught. Gooks, spics, and sand-niggers are still around. You haven't done shit.

It was pretty damn good. But the best movie is ESB. Personally though, ROTJ is my all time fav.
I saw this shit like 10 times in the theater when I was 6 and one more time when they released it in 3D. It's practically porn for me.

I like it but I just don't understand why it's the greatest. Not a troll, just want to hear your explanation.

>Empire is best
This nigger gets it

After all the hype I finally watched Rogue One, and boy did it suck. Took me a while to realize that fanboys were just desperate to put their love somewhere after the catastrophe of Force Awakens.

Some people have a hard time accepting Empire Strikes Back was the only decent Star Wars Movie.

Practically porn? I actually jacked off to Padme in that movie. Her, and her "double", come to think of it. Heh, cum.

The part of rouge one that was good was the part with Darth Vader.

>Finally some reason.
And FYI to be an oldfag like me you would of had to see Star Wars when it first came out in 1977 before it was called "A New Hope".

Empire....

poor quality. Fuck, they uses a puppet voiced by Miss Piggy....couldn't even CGI that shit.

Floating rocks???wtf man thats pretty lame.
Darth Vader catches a laser beam in his hand? why is that fucker maimed?

And the stupid light saber battle...shit, trying to chop at flying equipment.

Stupid.

it had one of the greatest most unexpected plot twists of all time, which makes it notable. but empire is not my favorite, a new hope is where it all began

This thread needs more star wars Rule 34

Same, except 6 years.

I saw Empire & Return of the Jedi in the theatre as a kid.

I saw episode 1 with everyone else that walked out afterward in silence and confused murmers.

Get Out

Rogue 2 was better. Rogue 1 didn't even have any space magic.

very low quality bait

This

Excellent movie, but not in the star wars universe.

Fuck that...I'm staying.
Empire was mediocre.
Why the hell would you have walking tanks ( AT AT) Its dumb. 'Hey lets trip them...." who would build a stupid war machine?

OR how about cloud city. I wonder how many people got blown off the edge of that thing every year...its dumb.

I have friends that quote Yoda liek ist the bible...I have to remind them that they are quoting a puppet. A green one at that. Might as well quote Kermit the Frog

I wouldn't say that it supplanted Empire. But yeah, the ending battle may just be the best in SW history. Perhaps even better than Hoth, Endor, all the great original battles.

And yeah, the rest of the movie is mostly just typical B grade corporate manufactured popcorn stuff.

It's basically a star wars fan film, which in fairness is what it always claimed to be. Basically just a giant checklist of cool "extra" stuff Star Wars fans have always wanted to see. For that I enjoyed it.

If you're looking for great drama with engaging characters, look elsewhere. The acting was pretty good though.

See

it sounds like Transformers might be more your speed. There's lots of cool lights and robots in that.

Lets list everything thats retarded on Empire.
-Walking AT-ATs
-Why a rebel base on a cold planet? Whats wrong with a warm one?
-Abominable Snowman
-Oh shit, a none jedi handles a lightsaber
-leaving one ship at a time....fucking bum rush the whole fleet.
-yoda puppet...fucking seagulls came out of this.
-force lifting rocks
-stupid stop action see your self in vaders helmet vision quest
-Fucking Force Ghost...where the fuck are other ghost jedi then
-Billy Dee Willaims ( no beer in this mofos hand?)
-Freezing carbonite
-C3P0 - fucking droid is annoying AF
-Chebacca not raping Leia
-stupid light saber battle, Luke looked like a chick in that silhouette ...
-lets try to slash at force thrown equipment thrown by off screen people
-No, I am your father ( yea I got the quote right)
-Turning the falcon back cause Leia felt something.
-Chewbacca not Raping Leia
-That fake hand....might as well add on a double dong on Luke of they can make a fake hand.

Fuck Transformers.

Yes I saw the original cartoon movie as a kid.
Fuck that all spark and killing Optomus Prime to sell a new line of toys.

>-Walking AT-ATs
So? Repulsors are easy to detect with sensors.
>-Why a rebel base on a cold planet? Whats wrong with a warm one?
They were hiding on an unlikely world.
>-Abominable Snowman
Wampa
>-Oh shit, a none jedi handles a lightsaber
So? It's just a sword.
>-leaving one ship at a time....fucking bum rush the whole fleet.
They left in groups, synched with ion cannon blasts.
>-yoda puppet...fucking seagulls came out of this.
Frank Oz is a national treasure.
>-force lifting rocks
Sorry they didn't have a weight room on Dagobah.
>-stupid stop action see your self in vaders helmet vision quest
It was a metaphor, and i'll take the old effects over shitty obvious CGI any day.
>-Fucking Force Ghost...where the fuck are other ghost jedi then
We see three in the original series.
>-Billy Dee Willaims ( no beer in this mofos hand?)
He was awesome.
>-Freezing carbonite
What?
>-C3P0 - fucking droid is annoying AF
He's supposed to be prissy and annoying. He's a protocol droid who hasn't been memory wiped enough.
>-Chebacca not raping Leia
Chewie's probably the most civilized of them all.
>-stupid light saber battle, Luke looked like a chick in that silhouette ...
OK.
>-lets try to slash at force thrown equipment thrown by off screen people
It was great effects for the time.
>-No, I am your father ( yea I got the quote right)
Epic moment in film.
>-Turning the falcon back cause Leia felt something.
Yeah, she's Force-sensitive and Luke's sister.
>-That fake hand....might as well add on a double dong on Luke of they can make a fake hand.
The Alliance ain't paying for that shit.

Agreed 100%.

Just saw it this weekend, and it was fucking great, for being stark, rough, & jagged around the edges, like Star Wars should be. A Star Wars movie for adults.

Fuck Star Wars

Pacific Rim 2 is coming out next summer.

Uhh no. I Don't even like star wars really, I watch it and I get why people like it but besides the sets and design and good actors it always seemed just pretty average. That said I saw rogue one and it's easily the worst one I've seen. I haven't seen the prequels yet I know they are suppose to be bad but it'll be hard to top Rogue One in badness. Nothing to invest in at all, completely non existent and forgettable leads, Disney written all over it just as bad as The Force Awakens. I actually fell asleep during the climax when they land on the planet and had to research the end later because my friend said I had to see the Darth Vader part, but even that was pure cringe fan service that had no build up or pay off just complete pointlessness like most of the movie. Bad writing that doesn't make sense pointless side characters that are completely forgettable (even the leads for that matter) and a mission that doesn't really have any hiccups or tension at all besides they get shot at and they shoot back until they all die. No garbage compactor no intricate security system they have to crack nothing interesting or exciting at all just dull shit for 2 and a half hours. Bad movie wouldn't even watch it again if you paid me.

Why.

You mean the part where they ripped off the battle of endor except there were a bunch of flashing lights and a funny robot and blind chinamen? Haha yeah, that part was so cool I almost dropped my fidget spinner.

>thinks dark blue color grade and handheld camera and death = gritty = adult
In reality, adult films are films with layers of emotion, interesting people, drama, careful plotting, suspense, and and great stories. Rogue One has none of those thing. No, making a guy shoot an "innocent guy" at the beginning doesn't make him complex or interesting, not when all you do with it is leave it there and have him flatline the rest of the movie and essentially just do the mission without any emotion, change, or challenge. No, traumatic childhood event is not "an interesting character", in fact, it's a cheap device used mainly in children's movies, like Now You See Me 2. Imagine if Luke's uncle dying was used as some shitty emotional backstory crutch, instead it's just used to send him on his way, start a story like a good adult movie would do.

>star wars should be for adults

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

What do people say when you show up alone at their door dressed as jar jar binks on Halloween?

...

he didnt say star wars as a whole should be for adults...

>stark, rough, & jagged around the edges, like Star Wars should be.
>like Star Wars should be
>A Star Wars movie for adults
>like Star Wars should be

The very idea of an adult star wars is immature in itself. Star wars only works when it's campy and sincere like an Indiana Jones movie, like the serials it represents. This actually makes the movies feel more adult, it's capturing a certain childish feeling adults respond to even more than kids. Making it a gritty movie "for adults" realot means making it a movie for teenage boys who think adult films are dark and gritty and violent and that's it.

Pure fan service

If its for adults a movie should be rated R just as the fact adult themes come up in adult life
>I don't mean just as an excuse to say fuck or show boobs either

Rogue One was an LCD film for LCD people. It took no chances, the heros were wooden and lifeless with no real emotional attachment that made me say, "damn, they are all gona die, this sucks". I didn't care. A lot of people are gonna talk about the space battle and all that shiny shit, because they are simpletons that the movie panders to. So good on Disney, they hit the target demographic, which is edgy teens who think they know how lifes is and of course 10 year olds who have the emotional nuance of a tick.

This movie was also about as gritty as 10,000 grit sandpaper. if they really wanted to show the horrors of war maybe they could get into the minds of some of these characters and have some REAL motivation, not the same 2 or 3 tropes that have been used in Star wars for 40 years (muh dead parents, muh betrayal). It means nothing, they gloss over all the little things that convey emotion and build attachment to the characters, and get right to the shiny explosions, because that what sells the t-shirts and battlefront games, because again, they have to cater to the mental abilities of children.

Red Letter Media had the best idea, make Rogue One a REAL heist film, ala oceans 11, where there are distinct characters with unique abilities who play off eachother and use cunning and smarts to accomplish the goal and they are likeable. I'm sorry, but I don't believe for 1 second that 6 retards can infiltrate THE MOST SECRET PROJECT in Imperial history, and get away with the data through some frontal assault. Fucking dumb.

But whatever, Star Wars has now, more than ever, been turned into a money machine. Disney knows what they are doing. They don't need to make it good, only good enough for star-wars-fanboy-mouth-breather-456876™ They could film a literal turd with an R2 unit in the back flying around a planet for 2 hours, tell you it's the newest X-wing variant, and most of you would still pay money to see it.

Fuck Star Wars.

Dat podrace doe

Knights of the Old Republic I and II are still the pinnacle of the Star Wars universe.

I'm glad someone else has this opinion. I'm not alone for the first time in so long

Clearly neither of you have ever read my Star Wars expanded universe OC: "Which Wookie eats the Ookie Cookie?"

Duuuuuuuude upload plox

And Kreia the coolest, Revan second coolest characters.

Dude.... The first one was a love letter to the mecha genre. Had all the elements you'd find in a semi-decent early 90's anime. Nostalgia hard.

The new one BETTER be a tribute to Gundam mythos, otherwise it's just power rangers sloppy seconds.
