Even weirder when in other parts of the movie they show that wishes can transport people. It could have cut back to Steve Trevor in his plane and quantum leaped him to 1984

Bizarre decision

Basically I think a lot of the moral failings of the script are not things that concern me too much in a Star Wars scenario.

The pacing is bad but, again, it’s hard to judge how much of that is down to the constraints of how shit DCEU is as a whole etc.

Nah the expanded universe can’t be blamed for the pacing if a standalone. There’s no links to the wider stuff. And it certainly didn’t stop the first ww or aquaman or shazam from being really good.

As I say I’m cautious but hopefully how wrong can you really go with a bunch of xwing guys blowing up imperials?

Fingers crossed!

A good rule of thumb is not to post spoilers about something that’s just come out in a completely unrelated thread.

I might make this to go with my Razor’s Crest model

You have this Razor Crest?

Looks like it sold out and is back. $200 AUD is a bit on the high side.

Yeah, I preordered it ages ago and it came through in September. It’s a good set.

Nice. It looks pretty detailed

It is!

I think it’s my second favourite build, after the Lunar lander

Yeah I was reading through that. It explained the escape pod which I couldn’t make sense of from the set details at Lego.

Interesting because I guess it implies they had a plan to use it at one stage.

The thing that gives me optimism for Andor is the line he says in Rogue One: “I’ve been in this fight since I was six years old. You’re not the only one who lost everything. Some of us just decided to do something about it.”

I’m hoping he get to see him do/make some questionable choices ‘for the good of the Rebellion’.

Ah okay.
He just seemed a bit dull in the film imo
Forrest Whitaker heading up a Saw Gerrera and young Jyn Erson show where he’s a proper outlaw extremist would be much more interesting imo ah well.

yeah id rather see more of jyn coz she feels like a richer character, especially with saw (who was great in rebels and that) but im quite happy with cassian

it’s such a shame that they cast felicity jones as jyn and not rey - i’m not saying it would work the other way round it’s just a shame that we only got one film of jyn and 3 films of rey played by someone who can’t really act imo

:smiley: i think rey’s good, felicity jones has more of an edge to her than daisy ridley which works with jyn’s murky past and rey’s naivety

I think Felicity Jones is far worse in Rogue One than Daisy Ridley is in Star Wars. You’re mad.

Daisy Ridley is like watching someone do a Hermoine Granger impression in their school play

Felicity Jones is like watching a log do it.

Should point out this is because both characters are fairly bland like Luke Skywalker was because they’re just a hero to hang the rest of the film off. They’re intentionally bland.
