    I rewatched this recently. It's got really great cinematography, and lots of texture to its world. The settings are all filled with awe and wonder, and have an inviting presentation that makes me want to see more. Sometimes I wish it used less CGI, and I think the Tarkin CG has aged pretty poorly, but overall the film's a real looker, and the main cast is great. A little nitpick I have is the use of establishing text. Kinda just not a fan of it?

      Editing … CG Tarkin looked incredibly bad imo to begin with. I always wanted to believe there was a better way, hell just cast someone else to play him if push comes to shove, or not include the character in the script at all. Good movie though.

      Editing … I wonder why I never rated it before now? I've seen it 10 times. Watching it again right now.

    lol I'm sorry this is just the worse. Honestly who fucking cares about how the rebels got the plans, who fucking cares why the death star has such a stupid design flaw. A New Hope wouldn't be much a fucking movie if the empire just swung by Yavin 4 unopposed, blew it up and said "see you later fuckers". Rogue One definitely has a chance to make some one care, but it doesn't cause it's awful. It's characters are awful, it's story is awful, and outside the last 20-30min at the end the movie, as a whole, is down right unbearable/laughable. And while that space battle is great (not Admiral Ackbar gets my vote for best character) i cannot justify wasting nearly 2hrs of time to get there - the vader part is cool as well, but you gotta sit through 2hrs to get there so why bother honestly. When the movie isn't centered around it's boring, uninspired, characters and it's bland, dead on arrival, narrative it's literally just concentrated noise. Decent amount of action set pieces in this one, none of which I care about cause the characters are so damn boring and one-dimensional - "lel for my father, lel for the rebelion" just stfu I don't care about your shallow motivation(or lack there of cause idfk why Donnie Yen/That other dude is even fucking along for the journey). This all comes together to make for one rather lackluster final act (besides the cool space fight ofc), cause again I just don't care about anything I see on screen. Mikkelsen's talent is of course wasted as I expected cause "lol hollywood" and Mendelsohn's not only wasted but given the worse character as Krennic is just a stupid little shithead. Also wtf is up with that CGI Peter Cushing's, that's one of the worse fucking things I've ever seen - shit made me think I was watching some fucked up version of Anomalisa.

    As far as my personal "Star Wars Hierarchy" this would fall somewhere either below or above The Phantom Menance, I honestly I'm not sure. From it's ham-fisted nostalgia moments to its uninspired characters/narrative, Rogue One feels like one big waste of time/resources to me - cause why try when you can just slap Star Wars onto the title and make a bunch of money. Thanks Disney you're the best

    Star Wars is at its best when the jedi are a mystical legend.

      Editing … Just rate it, and change it later if you feel compelled to. I've done that a handful of times after time has passed, and feelings have fully marinated. However, I must admit that I'm having trouble deciding how satisfied I was with Rogue One in comparison to other movies in the series. I know that I instantly enjoyed it more than The Force Awakens, but now I'm trying to figure out how much I really enjoyed Revenge of the Sith. It's the kind of thinking that makes me wish Lucas didn't direct all 3 movies in the prequel trilogy, because now I'm fantasizing over a RotS with Edwards behind the camera. Haha...this is harder than it should be.
