Then Harrelson's force ghost is also killed, and Han gets stuck in the evil timeline and has to blow up that Death Star to get home. Thus giving him the change of heart to help Luke and friends.

What I'd like to see is a series of movies that runs parallel to the original trilogy but that shows us what the characters who weren't onscreen in a given scene were up to. Like a companion to A New Hope where the first half is mostly just Leia trying to figure out how to entertain herself while sitting in her cell.

you're right! which leads to to wonder whether the star wars universe needs an odd couple-style sitcom with a wampa and a tauntaun struggling to live together in a cave on hoth

I'm kind of surprised I haven't read any articles breaking down the parallels between the Jedi lore in Rogue One and Islam. Pilgrims journeying through Jedha (Jeddah) to seek out kyber crystals (the black rock embedded in the Kaaba?).

i thought this was great! looked and sounded great, good script, great cast. i enjoyed the sense of tragedy and sacrifice, and the dirtiness of an insurgency. good job everyone.
with his politician hair and white cape i was kind of hoping the badguy would be an easygoing california technocrat -- the kind of charismatic and metric-obsessed "builder" you'd put in charge of a major tech project -- instead of another snarling old world fascist, but you can't push the mythos too far i guess

Value-free technocrat who Gets Things Done while pressing forth an ostensibly "inevitable" technological development is a great and timely idea for a villain, especially when you do have the option of leaning on Darth Vader for more direct creepiness and visceral terror, etc. Another missed opportunity.

there are hints of this possibility in the flashbacks of jyn's childhood -- two bright tech men, one who easily made his peace with empire and one who couldn't
probably shouldn't wish for SW to conform to our own sense of the villainous tho

Q. Anakinβs penisβdid it survive or had he been unable to get any sexual release since Revenge of the Sith? That would explain a lot of anger we saw in the original trilogy.A. Gone baby gone. Remember, he was lying on volcanic rock that was so hot it set his clothes on fire. Cotton burns at 400 degrees. Third-degree burns happen with a six-second contact with something only 140 degrees hot. Anakin was lying down on the rock for at least five minutes before the Emperor picked him up.Lying face down. On his junk. Directly on what was essentially a lava beach.By the way, this was the first letter I received after announcing the postmanβs return. Glad to see even though the Postman had to leave for a while, you guys never did.

Well, but that assumes clothes in the Star Wars universe are made with cotton, a plant that evolved in a far-away galaxy, perhaps a long time later.

Bothers me that all droids have 4-character names. And R2 units, for example, are all R2-??, which means there can be at most 36 x 36 R2 units in the whole universe, and only 36 x36x36x36=1.7 million robots in the whole universe.
