Rogue One - Star Wars

As long as we recognize Lucas is washed up and most TV sucks, we'll all get along fine.

Whatever, I'll be enjoying a nice sleep that night, and free tickets on Friday.

I'm still waiting for a Star Wars movie put out after '85 that's better than the Knights of the Old Republic game.

This one is much different than previous SW films. It helped me to see that Episode 7, while updated for current audience sensibilities, really was same old, same old. This one gave flavor to the galaxy we've never seen in a SW film.

Also the one cgi character was jarringly bad, to me. The wife says she didn't notice.

But good flick. Darker than that to which we are accustomed.

I laughed.


Can't wait to see Rogue One, but it looks like I won't be able to until after Christmas.

I'm sure I'll be subjected to this at some point. J.J. doesn't look mentioned in the credits, so maybe it'll have the first original ideas since the animated Cartoon Network series.

Did not realize this movie somehow got a PG-13 rating. Disagree. Feels PG to me.

Actual discussion I had on Monday:

Friend: It was OK.
Me: It was awesome!
Friend: It just felt disposable in the Star Wars universe, it wasn't the same characters...
