    I agree. I think ending on a wedding would have been a bad idea. I love the way everyone assumed Disney would not let them kill off all of the main characters when they were actually fine with the idea. Allegedly. I take literally everything I read about any of these productions with a HUGE grain of salt. The good, the bad, the mundane.

    I kind of like the idea of the Death Star being a mystery at the beginning. Though, it obviously wouldn't have been a mystery to the audience.
     
  4. Rogue One has grown on me over time. The first act will always be a mess but damn that last act is so good.

    Solo is still poop though.
     
  5. I like Solo more than RO. :shrug:

    Same, and it's not even close for me either, I like Solo way more

    Really, though, I'm happy for the people who worked hard on Solo that a lot of people really like it, even though I really don't. But, I happen to like Rogue One a heck of a lot more; it's my 4th favorite Star Wars film.

    Pretty intrigued by that Cassian Disney+ spinoff coming out next year, even though a prequel to a prequel seems like something I shouldn't care about. Especially if it ends up meaning more K-2SO. I think Chirrut & Baze would've been a more interesting thread to follow, but still, Diego Luna is cool, so I'm down.

    The first hour of Rogue One really hurts the film. I still like it, but it easily my least favorite of the Disney Star Wars. I also enjoy Solo way more, too.

    I personally think RO is the better film, but Solo perhaps being the better SW film. If that makes sense.....

    Yeah, but what do we really think about Iron Man 3?

    Solo was just so much more engaging and entertaining for me. I was honestly bored throughout a lot of Rogue One, despite the final action sequence being obviously very good. Also I've said this before but I haven't seen Rogue One since I saw it in the theater but I have thrown on Solo a couple times since I first saw it.

    Also rewatched this over the weekend. All my problems with it remain, but I always forget how great the last act is

    Been trying to decide when i'll start. Think I'm going to do Rogue One, New Hope, Empire, Phantom, Clones, Sith, Jedi, Awakens, Last Jedi

    This is the order I'm planning on right now but I'm inserting Solo between Jedi and TFA. One last ride with Han.

    The ending of Rogue One is obviously spectacular, but I honestly love the first 2/3 just as much.

    I personally like the beginning of the film as well, especially the aesthetic - dark, gritty, with a clarity and sharpness in the cinematography that was really appealing. The scene shot on Iceland especially springs to mind
