Official: STAR WARS THREAD. These are the droids you're looking for. **WARNING MAY CONTAIN SPOILERS

I am happy with the political stuff being left in the background and not really explained. It doesn't matter much. If there is going to be any political-type intrigue, it is better left to will she or won't she turn to the Dark Side of The Force than whether or not the Resistance spent operatives into the uncharted regions after the remnants of the Empire to spy on the First Order. The movie is more fun as a swashbuckler where all we have to know is who is on what side.

Even in a swashbuckler movie, however many armored skeletons there are, and how easily a musketeer can dispatch of his foes while drinking his tea, a ghost ship still needs to be revealed by the magical mist parting. You can't just have the ghost ship just suddenly be there, out of the literal blue. "Oh, right, and there was a ghost ship alongside starboard.

Hmmmm. Undead armies coming forth from magical mists and politics... I feel like there is some kind of joke there.

While still not confirmed, it does look like Darth Vader will appear in Rogue One.

Really excited about new prequels!

Will Rogue One end with Vaders star destroyer chasing down a cruiser carrying a certain princess and two droids?

 

[Ataturk]

Spoiler that ****.

Speaking of which, if you want to own a copy of the fourth coolest jacket in Star Wars, Matchless now make a suitably (€1399) expensive copy.


No, I don't think anyone would be joining the queue for that one.

I think that's cool, TBH. What are the three cooler jackets ranked before it?

Lefty I'm sure it pains you inside to have Ataturk be your biggest cheerleader in this thread.

 

[Ataturk]

I'm sure he knows it could be worse.
