This might be my favorite STAR WARS film.

"We're cavitating! He can hear us!!" "Okay Ryan we just unzipped our fly..." When a submarine goes in reverse, especially while traveling forward (direction changes are delayed because water) it stirs up the water and creates bubbles... like stirring your coffee one way quickly andnthen suddenly stirring it in reverse. Those bubbles collapse under the water pressure especially when they encounter the proppellers that are chopping through them. The result is like vigorous applause... the sudden collpasing of thousands of bubbles creates vibrations in the metal propellers and makes a shrieking noise... like air in your pipes kind of noise.... the creation of the bubbles is called cavitation..as in creating cavities.... and no matter if the Dallas is hidden behind the October... its like someone sneaking up behind you and shouting, "HEY!!" You're gonna know someone's there even if you dont know who. By delaying their "all stop" to stop the engines so they drift but slower, in order to ask "which way is he turning?", Mancuso kind of forced them to HAVE to hit the breaks by going reverse. But also he wanted to announce his presence to Ramius.

Ok Christina… (sorry, I'm new here andnI couldn't help myself!) Now that you've seen RO, it sounds like you react to shows as well, so I *strongly* encourage you to watch the "prequel" series to Rogue One called "Andor" that follows the spy/agent Capt. Cassian Andor seen here. The show is not just a great SW show, its just an excellent show. I cannot recommend it highly enough! Cheers.

"I guess it happens sometimes that the Top Gun people dont land quite right." First, they werent the elite trained Top Gun. Second, the book has a LOT more detail and examples of how this whole affair was affecting both sides... like Pelt said..."HAVING your ships and ours, your aircraft and ours, in such proximity is INHERENTLY DANGEROUS! WARS have begun that way, Mr Ambassador!" With the case of the crashing F18 the Captain or CAG mentioned it... his squadron got in a tangle with some Russian bombers and escort, and so the F18 came in damaged. Kinda hard to land sometimes when the aircraft won't cooperate.

"What are the countermeasures?" With aircraft there are 2 kinds: flares qhich provide a heat signature hotter than the target's engine thus distracting a heat seeking missle, or chaff which is strips of foil which disrupt the active radar guidance of radar guided missiles. With submarines the countermeasure is a.device which causes a massive amount of bubbles which mask other sound... like dropping a box of alkaseltzers into your bathwater. This disrupts the sonar tracking as the forward scanning sonar pings bounce off the myriad of bubbles and all the passive sonar hears is fizzing. However if the torpedo in its trajectory goes through and beyond the bubble cloud, it may then reacquire its intended target. "RIGHT FULL RUDDER, REVERSE STARBOARD ENGINE!" not only were they turning hard right, they were making the right side go backwards making them spin even tighter (normally both engines pripel in the same direction buton a dual engine like the Red October the engines can work independently)... however for a ship that big... its like the Titanic: a hard turn, even ehanced with sharp throttle differentials, is still slow as hell.

OG here. Loved the original trilogy but i think this is my favorite Star Wars content...

Its really almost a who dunnit thriller...

I think you got the gist of the run through "red route 1'... which are underground canyons south of Iceland... but some zoom and enhance for you... Its all done with speeds, a stopwatch, and precise calculations... like flying through hyperspace... they cannot SEE outside so if calculations or timing is off by mere seconds its game over. The canyons are deep enough for SONAR trying to hear them to completely miss them, as opposed to moving ABOVE the canyons and they're close to the SOSUS warning net... which is a string of passive listening devices across the north Pacific near Iceland... so Red Route 1 is a way to sneak past SOSUS. However, an active SONAR (sends out "pings" like how a bat navigates and listens to what it bounces off of to map the area) as opposed to just listening to the ambient noises...can still find them... like the Tu-95 bomber that was searching for them and dropped a torpedo. The Caterpillar was added precaution but when the Caterpillar failed and they had to use normal propeller propulsion the Tu95 could hear them... but surface vessels not close enough to the canyons still wouldnt. Also... 26 knots is about 28 mph or 45 kph.... its not FAST but naval vessels top speeds are about 35 knots ans at that time about 32 knots for a fast boat..so it's "full speed ahead" as it were.. and adds more complexity to the navigation of the canyon..

Genevieve O'Reilly plays Mon Mothma in Andor, Rebels, The Clone Wars and Ahsoka. She had a deleted scene in Revenge of the Sith showing the early formation of the rebellion.

One of the greatest movies of all time!

if you haven't already and my guess would be that you haven't, you should definitely watch Andor. in my opinion it's not only some of the best star wars tv ever made, it's some of the best tv ever made , period. it kinda expands on what you were talking about, the almost accidental collaborations and the true human cost of war. if you decide to react to it i'll totally be there for it, but even if you don't want to do that, i'm pretty confident you'd get a lot out of it. awesome reaction as always, thanks so much for sharing and much love to you and yours🙂🙂🙂❤❤❤

YOU REALLY DONT WANT RINGS AROUND EARTH. Rings could interfere with satellite trajectories, telecommunications, and space exploration missions.. Rings could block sunlight from reaching the Earth's surface, affect photosynthesis and the oxygen supply in the shadowed areas, making them almost uninhabitable. Rings could change our perception of night and day, creating a perpetual twilight. Rings could disrupt the internal navigation systems of some animals Altered Tides: The gravitational pull of the rings would affect the tides on Earth, causing them to become more complex and erratic. Earth's ringswouldn't have ice because Earth is much closer to the sun presence of rings around the Earth would have a serious impact on the amount of sunlight that would reach the Earth by preventing some of it from reaching …

Heads and shoulders above any of the sequel movies. Sorry.

"Like warp drive..." "Wouldnt they get jolted around?" The silent drive (caterpillar) isnt a FASTER travel, it's a virtually noiseless (albeit slightly slower) travel... its what Skip Tyler was telling Jack Ryan..."i doubt our SONAR would even pick it up...and if it did it would sound like whales humping or some seismic anomoly". Instead of the noisy sounds ofnthe propeller drive shaft, which is mechanical in nature, it just uses magnets and superconductors to create motion without the metal-to-metal contact of bormal drive systems. So not like warpnl drive but rather like a a cloaking shield... think Klingon Bird of Prey rather than warp speed. So nah, it wouldnt jolt the crew around.

Hi Christina. I've just watched your reaction to the "Dark Knight" When are you going to react to the "Dark Knight Rises"? Have you already reacted to it? Great reaction btw ❤

A Star Wars story so good it brings tears to your eyes. It proves that Disney could do it. Once. When they hired writers and directors who loved Star Wars. Once. Everything since this movie has ranged from "meh" to "absolutely awful", with the first season of The Mandalorian being the only bit of Disney star wars to rise above mediocrity - most of the rest is at the bottom end of that scale. Disney gave up on Star Wars, preferring to hire activists to make movies about their activism and writers who don't even know what Star Wars is, as long as they conform to Disney's hiring practices. It's very sad to see this franchise that used to be amazing reduced to rubble by Disney, and this movie serves as a reminder that they COULD have done awesome things but they just didn't care, and just wanted to be political rather than entertaining. I don't know any former Star Wars fans that are still fans today. I'm sure some exist, but not in my circle of friends. That said, I truly love this movie. I put it up there with A New Hope and Empire Strikes Back as the best 3 Star Wars films but I'm hard pressed to rank them so I'll call it a 3-way-tie. Also, move aside R2-D2, C3P0, and BB8, K2-S0 is my favorite Star Wars droid.

When the time comes, you will watch ANDOR and see the birth of the rebellion and Cassian journey before Rogue One, and it’ll work just as well as this one for your appreciation of this saga!

37:25 "Are these the people that 'many people died to get these plans' was about?" No. When Mon Mothma said that in Return of the Jedi, she was talking about the SECOND death star, not the first one. She actually said "Many Bothans died to bring us this information." Bothans are an alien species in Star Wars that look roughly like anthropomorphic lions and have excellent natural affinity for spying. No big lions in this crew because these are the rebels, all human, who are stealing the plans for the first death star. 48:20 "I'll never be able to see her say that line without tears, remembering Cassian and Jyn on the beach." Well, since she was talking about other people in a different story, it's not really the same. But still, she might have said "Many people died to bring us both sets of Death Star plans." and it would have still been true.

23:35 "Is this what happened on Leia's planet? I thought it was more instantaneous." No, that was different. Here they used one single reactor to fire this shot at Jedda's holy city. On Alderaan (Leia's home) they used all their full power. The conversation between Grand Moff Tarkin and Director Krennic that you have at 20:45 in your video includes these lines that you didn't include in your edit: Krennic: I stand ready to destroy the entire moon. Tarkin: That won't be necessary. We need a statement, not a manifesto. Krennic (giving orders): Target Jedda City. Prepare single reactor ignition.

Baal Organa, former Imperial Senator from Alderaan, adoptive father of Leia, whom we last saw twenty years ago (in-universe) in REVENGE OF THE SITH looks older because, you know, he's twenty years older. How could he not? It's been twenty years since Luke was born, Yoda and Obi-Wan went into exile, Baal took baby Leia back to Alderaan to be raised as his daughter and princess of Alderaan; this movie is, of course, set a day or so before the so-called "A New Hope," aka "STAR WARS."

9:15 "The place with the pyramid is Rebel, the good guys. So it's like Hoth but hot and humid." Well, OK, yeah. But we first see Hoth in Empire Strikes Back. Before that was A New Hope when the Rebel base was on Yavin IV. Here. This base. This IS the exact same base where Luke Skywalker and some other guys flew their X-Wings and other ships to blow up the first Death Star in A New Hope. The effects team lovingly recreated that base for this movie, but also, they blended in a few bits from the Hoth base too.

Mon Mothma's "Many Bothans died to bring us this informat" is actually from RETURN OF THE JEDI, not the original STAR WARS and was the information as to where the second Death Star was being built, not the plans from STAR WARS (seen in early form in ATTACK OF THE CLONES).

This is what all the Disney Star Wars could have been.

2:30 "Anyone else out there wish that our planet had rings?" Nope. 1. Rings visible from Earth's surface would be large and thick enough to block some sunlight, lowering planetary temperature especially in winter. By a lot. Longer, colder, harsher winters would affect everything from agriculture to economy. Life would be harder. 2. Rings would almost certainly interfere with satellites. I like having satellites. Life is better with them than without. 3. It's unlikely we can have the most awesome moon in the solar system AND have rings. Gotta pick one*. *Saturn's largest moon, Titan, is 80% more massive than Earth's moon while Saturn is 9,500% more massive than Earth, so Saturn CAN hold moons and rings, but Earth cannot, unless our moons were tiny like meteors instead of our big lovely moon that hits your eye like a big pizza pie.

Zampolit Putin... the guy in Ramius's quarters that was reading from the Book of Revelation... was very much NOT the ship's counselor... in Soviet Russia, the USSR, the Soviet Politboro installed on every naval vessel a Political Officer (zampolit) to ensure the captain does as politics demands, often at the cost of strategic military advantage, and sends reports to the Politboro (the political leaders... like the USA Cabinet members). Hence, if you're gonna go rogue, first thing you gotta do is off the political officer.

In my humble opinion, this is one of the best Star Wars movies. It shows us a not very pleasant side of the rebellion, and there is very little that is black and white clear. Everything is shades of gray. You mentioned you are a Star Trek fan, and how it's strange that you are liking Star Wars as well. There is room in our hearts for both. One reason for that (there are many, but this is one) is that Star Trek is Science Fiction. Some stories and series in the Trek universe do a better job of of that than others, but at it's heart, its Sci/Fi. Star Wars is a space opera, so instead of exploring things about how humanity is better or worse in the future and how technology plays a part in their lives like Trek does, Star Wars is an opera - a highly stylized, very dramatic fantasy story telling of the flaws and virtues of humanity in general. While we as watchers of the opera love the technology, the technology is not woven into the deep undercurrents of the tale it is trying to communicate - it is more of a vehicle. So, if I may, give yourself permission to like both - they are in fact really different from each other on an atomic level. Oh, and the "Many Bothans died to bring us this information" line was in Return of the Jedi, Episode VI, and was referring to the second death star. They kind of skipped over how Leia actually got the plans in Episode IV, and I am grateful we got that tale here.

First things first your hair 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥 Rogue One IMHO is the best SW movie... Andor the prequel series is not only the best SW project but top 10 tv series all time. 😊

The Datth Vader we all know we wanted to see.

"Noooo. Noooo. Nah-uhh." Yes, at the end, we in the theater that first weekend said the same thing. That ending sliding seamlessly into A New Hope was a total surprise. One thing you notice in A New Hope is that when Leia claims to be on an innocent diplomatic mission, Vader is thinking, "I just saw you leave with those plans!"

Thanks so much for the upload.Having you on screen was like having company for a change lol

Not so much about this film but, the actor Denis Lawson, who plays Wedge Antilles, the X-wing pilot who is Luke's friend and is the only pilot to appear in all 3 of the original films, is the real-life uncle of Ewan McGregor who played Obi-Wan Kenobi in episodes 1, 2 and 3. Also, when Denis Lawson found out that Ewan McGregor was considering the role of Obi-Wan, Denis said 'Don't do it, don't do it, don't do it. ' because Denis felt that the role of Wedge had hindered his career in acting and didn't want Ewan to have the same misfortune.

So here we are been a long journey many arms been cut off many gungans have died i saw this opening night! Carrie fisher been dead only a few months and half the theater knew peter cushings been dead fee decades and a few roars involving him, but i swear to thr emporored himself all hell broke loose at that final sceen.

Ba-rutal

This is the last Star Wars movie you need to see. The rest of them is pure garbage!!! 💩

"...8-track, stick it in" 🤣 Perfectly ok to get emotional. In the words of Obi Wan, "Let Go!" Lol.

Regarding Stormtrooper armour lore: I reccomend a video called: "Justice for the Stormtroopers," by the channel: "Stupendous Wave's" for mire details, if You want to.

23:23 Yes, this is a "single reactor ignition" this is not a test on the same scale as the Alderan "test"

32:18 That is Admiral Raddus not Admiral Ackbar. (Both are Mon Calamari)

23:45 The two shots the Death Star fires in this movie are not at full power - they don't want to destroy the planets, only specific locations on the planet's surface.

This is probably the best sequel/prequel ever written for Star Wars. Rogue One does have a TV spin off series in Andor - the journey of Cassian Andor towards joining the Rebellion. Highly recommended to watch. It’s probably the most grown up Star Wars story written for the 1977 crowd and has an excellent cast. Diego Luna reprises his character here.

BTW, great 8-track reference. Made me laugh.

Good movie choice! This is the only Star Wars movie from the Disney era that is any good.

Even after he has been long taken from us, Peter Cushing is still crushing it as Grand Moff Tarkin. :)

You know what would be crazy is if you reacted to a movie someone sent you like Orgazmo. It's not Ike it cost me money or anything

Hello kitten. Glad you liked it.

Pity the people who did this didn't do all the pre quals ya Goofy m8te from Australia

If you notice in the movies set after this in the timeline, there's no blue squadron, only red and gold. That's because blue squadron were all pretty much killed at the end of the movie in the battle.

Guy Henry, I thought, did a brilliant job of portraying Grand Moff Tarkin.

Bail Organa is older yeah. He talks subtly about Obi Wan (the hidden Jedi), and when he says "I will trust her with my life" , he´s obviously talking about his daughter, princess Leia Organa.

In the rebel attack to Scarif, the red five pilot unfortunately died. And the rebellion chose later a new red five pilot... Luke Skywalker. For me, this is one of the best SW films ever. The whole film is incredible, and the last 15 minutes a brutal rollercoaster (Vader OMG).
