"This is a rebellion isn't it? I rebel."

That shit got me cringing. Other than that, this looks good. I don't think I'm gonna like the main character, especially if she's

Spoiler

Reys mom. I hate Rey.

 

[greatestjediever]

Have you even watched Star Wars?

lol

Holy shit. Looks incredible.

Oh man.

This.

Looks.

So.

Good.

I loved that line!

 

[Gallbaro]

Fun fact but the scene with the running at around 1:10 was filmed over a couple of days at Canary Wharf underground station between 1am and 5am. Amazing, how they managed to pull it off in total secrecy!

Totally knew that was Canary Wharf. And I am a nyer.

 

[Patryn]

That shot had my jaw dropping.

This looks soooooo good.

 

[The Elite]

Looks fantastic. Can't wait.

 

[Solo]

It looks okay-ish. Not entirely sold on these spinoff films, and Forest Whitaker and Donnie Yen stand out like sore thumbs in Star Wars, but some of the shots were really nice. My favorite part was the piano rendition of the force theme.

 

[RoadHazard]

Yeeep! Looking really nice. Like a real Star Wars movie! Forest Whitaker suddenly showing up felt a bit weird (he's just been in so many completely different things that I have trouble seeing him as a Star Wars character), but yeah, I'm very up for this!

That did absolutely nothing for me. I guess it doesn't help I thought A New Hope and The Force Awakens were dreadfully boring and the only Star Wars I really really like is The Phantom Menace.

I love science fiction movies and especially space travel movies but I just can't get excited for Star Wars.

I know opinions can't be "wrong", but... this is wrong. Just so wrong.

 

[tci]

The OG costumes!! So good. And the general looks perfect.

So hyped!

 

[valkillmore]

Those walkers

That music

And another female lead. Excellent.

Fuck it looks awesome

 

[Travo]

Looking pretty good. A little jarring to see the original trilogy setting in modern filmmaking, but still looking good.

Yep, I felt the same way. It's good to see Mon Mothma again.

 

[jelly]

The end of the trailer is trying to suggest the character swaps sides/

Spoiler

goes rogue haha

but I'm guessing it's just a fakeout while they're infiltrating the Empire.

That's probably her making her escape after Vader stalking and hopping in a ship giving him the finger.

 

[Gold_Loot]

Loving the scenes on whatever planet this is. It seems like they're banking hard on evoking Vietnam, and it kinda works.

Imagine if that was a long take like Children of Men...

It's never going to happen, but one can dream.

 

[Devilinthiscity]

i'm not a fan of this actress.

Yeah, not a big fan of Felicity Jones either. She was okay in The Theory of Everything, but idk about this.

Anyway, the film looks interesting, but it didn't really blow me away.

All of this.

This wave of badass female leads is a great change of pace.

 

[TheOddOne]

 

[StopMakingSense]

Was that Ian McKellen?

OH PLEASE TELL ME THAT WAS IAN McKELLEN.

Ben Mendelssohn.

 

[vern]

Ghost Dog in Star Wars. Shit yeah!

 

[Sanjuro]

Hey apparently Star Wars prequels aren't good for you. Too much Disney, not enough Vader.

 

[Adam Blue]

The music sounds like star wars, but not sure why they'd use that tune unless it has to do with the story. But with TFA it looks like Disney isn't being as meta as Lucas was.

 

[ElectricBlanketFire]

Didn't really get any feels out of this unlike TFA. The story concept seems like such a bore. : That trailer had nothing other than it's Star Wars to it...

That should be the movie's tagline.

Rogue One: Nothing Other Than Star Wars

It's been called a heist film, so of course they will be dressing up as storm troopers to sneak in at some stage in the film.

 

[Exterminieren]

Ooh, yes.

In for that.

 

[Jarmel]

That dialogue is shit.

 

[sc0la]

Looks hype. I expected a lot more Xwings with the rogue name.

 

[BrettHeazy]

Looks so fucking good!

Looks being the keyword, at work with no speakers so can't hear anything

 

[neorej]

This looks so much like a WW2-movie untill you notice the AT-ATs in the background.

 

[SeanR1221]

I went in with really low expectations and I'm happy to see the trailer looks really good

 

[gutter_trash]

Rebels needs more American accents

 

[Boke1879]

This looks awesome. TFA is awesome. So glad we're getting so much Star Wars.

 

[Fersis]

It legit looks more interesting than The Force Awakens, this one seems to be a brand new movie!

DONNIE YEN ON STAR WARS BITCHES WOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

 

[OriginalThinking]

I got the chills during the scene with the AT-ATs. Looks beautiful.

 

[ponpo]

Donnieeee

It looks okay-ish. Not entirely sold on these spinoff films, and Forest Whitaker and Donnie Yen stand out like sore thumbs in Star Wars, but some of the shots were really nice. My favorite part was the piano rendition of the force theme.

What, how.

 

[Vampirolol]

Imagine when all of her friends will be trapped in a room with Vader.

 

[Mik2121]

Checking the trailer again, yeah... I'm not a big fan of the edgier look of some of the characters here. I like the slightly "happier" look of Rey, Fin and the others compared to these new guys. They also get in serious situations but it's mixed with a bit more cheeky stuff which I think is also part of what makes Star Wars what it is.

I'm definitely looking forward to this movie and I don't hate the characters either, but I'm slightly concerned about whether they might have made them a bit too edgy, that's all.

 

[bill0527]

That shot had my jaw dropping.

This looks soooooo good.

That's about how my 6 year old plays Battlefront.

"You have to run away from them son...not run AT them."

 

[Mangoverboard]

Wonder if the character is a bounty hunter and they enter the Death Star on the pretence of getting a mission from Vader

 

[MajorTom]

the more I watch this gif the more obvious it gets that he wasn't even close to hitting the storm trooper haha.

 

[ryan299]

I thought the dialogue was terrible. Still think they needed to have Vader to sell it to the general audience but they have time.

Visuals were cool. Sword guy looked dumb.

 

[Matrix]

Take my money... now

Awesome

 

[Woorloog]

Looks better than TFA, and more interesting.

(Don't get me wrong, i liked TFA a lot.)

 

[EvilMario]

Dialogue seems cheesy as hell

Spoiler

, so it'll fit right in with the rest of the Star Wars movies and I'll love it.

 

[newtypepilot]

is it just me or does the girl sound like Natalie Portman?

 

[RoadHazard]

That's about how my 6 year old plays Battlefront.

"You have to run away from them son...not run AT them."

"Don't runt AT them, run AT-AT them!"
