What I most appreciated about this movie was how it clearly showed that war is war, that is, that rebels fighting against a military force must... fight. So from the average person’s perspective - who usually want to just be left alone - they’re all deadly.
One of the best Star Wars movies ever. And we see why: careful planning, lot of respect for the franchise from Director and production crew and passion for great story telling. Exact the opposite we got from the other people in charge of Sequel Trilogy.
@@ihatecorpsehusband7147 because for many people that went to go watch it to them it hit rock bottom in a way, but I thought it was alright admittedly not the best star wars movie but it tried it's hardest
Rogue One is my favorite Star wars film since Empire strikes back - I knew it was good when as I was watching it I realised I had a big smile on my face. And then I looked across to my brother and mother and saw they were smiling too .... but boy it was a long wait to really enjoy a SW film again.
When Chirrut was walking saying "the force is with me. I am one with the force" It was one of my favourite moments of the film. Until a little girl sitting next to me laughed and said "where's k2so?"
And George Harrison has the same first name as George Lucas! Coincidence? Or is it possible that more than one person can have the same first name in an ENTIRE GALAXY! LOL - dumbass
given that felicity jones's characters story has been old from almost birth to definite death, there is unfortunately zero chance of ever seeing her in that role again. which is the most tragic thing about the movie.
@@QixTheDS well when you know you're right that comment is perfectly correct any intelligent person can see that, it shouldn't matter to you if people attack you. I mean if a moron disagrees with you that's almost as good as an intelligent person agreeing with you.
Actually the battering ram tactic of the hammerhead isn't a tactic from an actual battering ram, but from the Greek ships called Triremes. Those ships would row full speed into the side of another ship to make it sink.
This was excellent. I started watching it saying, "eh, I'll watch 5 minutes of it." Then suddenly I had watched 47 minutes of it--it was that interesting!
I found Jyn and Cassians death on the beach reminded me so much of Tea Leoni's final moments with her dad in "Deep Impact." It was almost identical in emotional impact and the way it was shot.. A very good death scene. I was impressed with the movie in so many ways. The fact that they all died, really made the story have a hard hitting emotional impact. Of course we all knew they had to die so they were absent from Eps 4, 5 and 6.
FYI. The Chinese saving the day was the story line from the book that the movie "the Martian" is based on. It was not an appeasement move to satisfy the Asian movie market.
Not at all. That's actually an ignorant closeminded statement. You're basically saying that their roles meant nothing more than to secure money for the film rather than their role playing key which allowed for the message to be relayed to Leia.
Donnie Yen is bigger than just the Chinese Box office. I hate that y'all are playing him and Jiang Wen like they weren't the best thing about this movie. Like they were just fillers for the Asian market. Their roles were very important and played phenomenally.
Agree. Donnie is actually pretty good at English. If Hollywood really cared, they would have brought him over long ago and made huge money. I always thought he was just cast because he's quite legendary among action movie fans. Always wondered why Jackie and Jet came over, but he never did.
Great breakdown vid! ... couple other micro-things: my fave line in R1 is Vader warning Krennic not to choke on his own ambitions. That's a mutation of Leia's line to Tarkin in the original Lucas SW book: "Foolish men often choke on their own delusions". And another possible THX-1138 nod: the dancer/holo-porn... (ahem) utilized by Duvall's character
the Chinese involvement in the Martian had nothing to do with selling the movie. it was in the Novel way before the author even intended to sell the book.
I'm not sure "a huge, complex trend" is strictly accurate when describing a pretty simple fact - Chinese audiences like seeing Chinese actors, and the Chinese market is enormous.
and it being used as an actually battering ram fits it really well, being an (in the star wars lore) ancient ship from a bygone era (if you'd take it as a reference)
Technically, the Hammerhead ships in SWTOR and KOTOR were a different class of ship...larger and designed as warships, as opposed to these later and smaller more freighter designs. The SWTOR ones were Thranta-class corvettes, I believe. But yes, they are definitely closely related. In case that last wasn't obvious...
One of the things that's really great about Vader's ending scene is that it really does show us how Vader is supposed to be. In the original trilogy, we're introduced to him and we see he's this powerful character and a foreboding figure, but the actual threat his character poses just gets overshadowed by everything else going on in the films. Now in comes Rouge One and Vader is pulling out all the stops and reminds us exactly why the galaxy feared him.
I would bet anything that when we hear "General Syndulla" called over the intercom on Yavin that it is in fact Hera they are referring to. Especially given the fact that we do see Chopper in the background there too. And I also bet that the series Rebels will end with what's left of the Rebel crew from the show going off to fight in the battle of Scarif. We'll end up seeing the battle of Scarif from the Rebels cast perspectives. In my opinion, that would really be a perfect way to end that show too. We do know that Rex survives the show Rebels because he is in ROTJ as confirmed by Dave Filoni, but as for the fates of the rest of the cast, I have no clue. Having said that, I do think that Ezra survives the Rebels series because I truly think the character that Benicio del Toro is playing in The Last Jedi is Ezra.
Incredible in-depth vid. There were so many things I never would've known. Your usage of R1 footage and concept art was really helpful and something I haven't seen in other videos of this type. Thanks for sharing.
Also, although this movie was brilliant, it would've been better with Senna & Lunak or more creature leads in general because the cast was a little too human-centric. It would've been cool seeing Two Tubes, Weeteef, or Senna & Lunak fighting alongside our human leads to the end, using their special skills and sacrificing just as much.
Im not sure if anyone else has added a comment about Scarif but here is what I have heard. Force Awakens and The Last Jedi were filmed a fair bit here in Ireland in Counties Kerry, Cork and Donegal. Rumour has it that people from County Clare made remarks that they got no Star Wars filming at all and, as a nod to that, Scarif was named after the tiny town of Scarrif which is very close to the beautiful town of Killaloe that has a wonderful lake which I heard was scouted as a possible location....So, being Irish myself and a Star Wars fan, I like to think that the Scarif naming is a reference to Scarrif in County Clare. :)

8:41 "Ria Talla" is an alias that Sabine Wren uses in an episode of Star Wars Rebels!!!
That ending scene to rogue one gave me chills. I was not expecting it at all.
Did anyone notice that Jyn Erso's father Galen Erso has the same name as Starkiller from the Force Unleashed series..... His name was Galen Marek.
I remember that!
Ziggl well i kinda prefer force unleashed than rogue one
meaning that they never make movie on Galen Marek aka Starkiller
And George Harrison has the same first name as George Lucas! Coincidence? Or is it possible that more than one person can have the same first name in an ENTIRE GALAXY! LOL - dumbass
Possibly referencing Galen from Planet of the apes?
Felicity Jones' Jyn Erso is a thousand times more interesting than Daisy Ridley's Rey from Force Awakens. I wish we had her instead in a main trilogy.
given that felicity jones's characters story has been old from almost birth to definite death, there is unfortunately zero chance of ever seeing her in that role again. which is the most tragic thing about the movie.
Rey was a Mary Sue in every sense. Jyn really wasn't. I'm probably gonna regret saying that because someone's gonna attack me.

No way. Jyn is kind of monotone/plain, Rey has tons of charisma. Jyn is fine for rogue one but Rey is a way more compelling character
They are both amazing !!!
