Another young, raw heroine being thrown into something larger than her history would suggest. Haven't seen that plot anywhere before.

Something tells me you have seen that plot far, far less than a young, raw hero being thrown into something larger than his history would suggest.

Neither of them looked like bothans.

I mean...I don't know what bothans look like, but I don't picture them looking like those two normal looking humans.

Turns out that Botha (Both?) is just a suburb on Corsuscant.

I know in the EU they are an alien race. Not sure if that's canon or not now.

It doesn't really matter either way. Wasn't the line that many Bothans died bringing the plans? They could be just one part of the raid and overall plan. Doesn't mean Bothans were the only players involved.

The Bothans were the ones who got the plans for the second death star. Duh.

The first death star plans were stolen by unnamed spies after the rebels won some kind of battle before the first movie starts.

ETA: not after -- "during" according to the opening crawl.

TFA
Hunger Games
Divergent Series
... etc.

Hollywood vamping up its anti-sexism to make up for generations of oppression, no doubt.

Don't get me wrong, I will see this movie multiple times in theaters. Let's just be real.

Ah, yes, I remember this from the Thrawn books. They're a race of cat monsters known for being diplomats and spies, notable for the way their fur somehow telegraphs exactly how they're feeling at the moment -- a very useful trait for diplomats or spies.

One of the little details that makes me embarrassed to say I read those books.
