![The Complete Story of Destiny! From origins to Shadowkeep [Timeline and Lore explained]](/img/n.gif)
Gareth Edwards, the director, said this last year: "So essentially what Star Wars to me was, a boy who is stuck at home and dreams of joining a war. And so it's like, let's tell a story of a girl who is stuck in a war and dreams of going home. It was like a mirror."
@@Darnaguen "It's like poetry; it rhymes"
@@benschultz1784 i love how this quote never dies
1:13:01 Also, fun fact, the rebel that launches the Tantive IV blockade runner, Leia's ship is a brief cameo by Gareth Edwards himself.
aw man....I want to like this and now I can't. It has 66 likes.
@@hellowhat890 Yep! He's also on The Last Jedi as the Resistance soldier side-eying the salt-licker dude.
That moment where Vader pins the Rebel to the Corridor Ceiling with the Force then non-chalantly dispatches him as he walks past...
Straight up horror movie shit
I lowkey believe the theory that says the door was actually jammed by Vader using the force, so he actually slaughtered the troops while holding the door.
Would.
@@wolverineaquajock2 D:
;D
@@RifqiMainGitar It has good evidence behind it given that the door opened the instant Vader got to it. If the door was genuinely jammed it probably would've stayed jammed when he reached it.
"Climb!" and "Do you think anyone's listening?" really hit different now.
Rogue One and Andor are, by far, the best thing from the Disney era.
To me Rogue One is the best Star Wars period!!
@@davidwoolbright3675i gotta agree with you. I think andor and rogue one are definitively better than the OT. Im tired of the OT being untouchable because it’s the original. By that logic any car that comes after the very first car ever invented is bad.
@@ButchersNailsEnjoyer Total agreement.
Unfortunately, there are very much a LOT of "car guys" who absolutely believe that any car made after the 60s or 70s is total trash by default.
It's a very common mentality that the past is great, now is bad, and the future is doomed.
@@davidwoolbright3675 Its decent, its no Rebels though, which also has the line "do you think anyone is listening?" before this was made.
Omg I hadn't connected those lines. Nice touch.
Cassian's introduction is genius. He's a rebel, but not a lovable scamp like Han or a noble knight like Luke. He's a jaded spy who will absolutely murder innocents, even allies, if they become liabilities or get in his way.
That scene where Cassian shot the informant before the imperial troops could get to him chilled me to the bone when I saw it in theaters, and it’s when the movie hooked me. Such a great way to show the dirty work the rebels had to do to survive against impossible odds.
@@jonathan-d4d One might say...he's condemned to use the tools of his enemies, to defeat them.
@@mysticsaxophone4181That’s one of the only scenes from Andor I’ve seen. It’s so good! It makes me want to get Disney+ just so I can watch once season 2 is out.
@@mysticsaxophone4181 Ha! i see what you did there
@@ARandomInternetUser08 Yeah, that’s what made it so interesting. It wasn’t a cool antihero move like Han Solo, and more the actions of a desperate man who’s haunted by the things he’s had to do for the war.
21:38, yes that is Donnie Yen, one of the best Martial Artist actors in the industry.
There was an interview with him, and he lamented that...even though he was in Star Wars movie now...his kids still thought he was a dork 🤣
"Are you kidding me?! I'm blind!" was also improvised and added into the script by Donnie Yen
This is Disney's best Star Wars movie hands down.
At least tied with Andor
I say siege of mandelore is best
@@shugaroony what?! That needs some explanation
As someone who loved TFA and liked the others, I still agree with you. Rogue One is a top tier Star Wars film.
Really, cuz I think it's mid-tier at best
In the rebel attack to Scarif, the Red Five pilot died trying to enter in the base. The rebellion chose later a new red five pilot... Luke Skywalker as we witnesses in episode IV and the following.
For me, this is one of the best Star Wars films ever. The whole film is incredible: complex characters, narration... and the last fifteen minutes a brutal rollercoaster. Darth Vader here show us how terrific, cruel and evil he could be.
Sorry bud, that wasn't him. Blue Squadron was tasked with getting down to the base before they closed the Shield Gate. Red Five was the chubby pilot who was shot down shortly after Red Leader's last cameo. "Stick close, Red Five. Where are you goin'?"
Correct Red Squadron was tasked with fighting the tie fighters above the shield. That’s why several of them escape to fight in A New Hope
@@ricardoquintero7160 Vangos Grek (Blue 6) hit the shield, going by the Visual Guide.
@@chrissonofpear1384 and the second ship?
@@ricardoquintero7160 Unconfirmed, but might be Robich Duggsin (Blue 7)
Grek can be identified by his helmet (like Wona Goban on the Y-wing torpedo run)
Hear vaders breathing and then the ignition of his lightsaber. Yeah, you're screwed. One of the best scenes in Star Wars.
I remebmer being in the theater thinking, " are they about to do what I think their about to do?" And then they did. Sooooo amazing.
still to this day my fav star wars quote is "all i'm surrounded by is fear and dead men"
Dont care about what anyone else may say, the droids are and always have been the heart and soul of Star Wars
Uh, no. Jar-jar is the key. He’s the key to all of it!
It's R2's world. We're just NPCs.
Andor kinda embraces this in their show. Tbh their droid is the only one treated with the kind of love and respect I feel a lot of droids in Star Wars deserve.
@@JojoTheRed Step up to the plate.... Darth Jar Jar !
It is a tale told by a droid, full of love and sacrifice.
One of the most selflessly revolutionary acts is to plant the seeds of a tree who's fruit we will never live to enjoy.
Someone’s nondescript cape flaps in a shadowy subterranean breeze.
😉
Carrie Fisher died like 2 weeks before this movie released, and before I saw it. It was a real emotional jolt seeing her appear at the end of this. I had no idea she would be in this.
Quick clarification, she passed a week and a half after, not before. She got to see her character appear, and was particularly pleased and excited because her daughter, Billie Lourd, was the actress they used for her stand-in.
Meg's quote of the movie: "Aren't we all just re-programmed Imperial droids? We have to un-learn a lot of propaganda."
I wonder what propaganda she is talking about. Not society and it's key fundaments at least.
If she was born and raised in the USA then she's just talking out of her ass.
@@sirraf23yes because propaganda doesn't exist in America 🙄
@@issyd2366what are you on about?
@@sirraf23 I'm trained to recognize propaganda. So I won't fall for all the right-wing stuff we've been bombarded in the last 15 years.
First scene of A New Hope, Vader boards Leia's ship and the young princess has the absolute audacity to tell Darth Vader that they're on a diplomatic mission from Alderaan. Gotta love Leia🤣
Yeah, that opening goes from Vader being like "plausible but I'm not buying it" to "ARE YOU FUCKING KIDDING ME RIGHT NOW!?!"
@@darkphoenyx27”Your ship just tire-dusted me a few hours ago, princess. Come on!”
*Livid* "You are PART of the REBEL ALLIANCE and a TRAITOR! Take her away!!!"
"Bitch, I just saw your ship ten minutes ago and you were shooting back when we tried to stop you!"
Just a little reminder that she is his and Padme’s kid, because both of them absolutely possessed that kind of Audacity.
For the Red and Gold Leader Scenes they used Archive footage from New Hope to bring those characters back, so yes it was the original actors
The actor who played Gold Leader actually recorded some new dialogue for Rogue One. The actor who played Red Leader had passed away in the interim so all his stuff is archive footage.
44:29 Vader still has a bit of Anakin's sass in him.
I can’t wait till you watch Andor. Not just the best Star Wars show but one of the best shows period.
I'd prefer if she watches andor after the clone wars, rebels (in order to understand what it means when they talk gerrera and seps)
Up there near The Expanse, almost 😉
@@JackomackAndor really spoiled Star Wars fans with a new standard of quality!
@@Cairoxl5 Tends to happen when given to actual talent 🤣
Not only Andor series has amazing writing and acting, but the dialogue is at another level. And the visuals? Wow! Andor is peak Star Wars show, can't wait for season 2!
No matter how many times I watch this film, or even reactions, I get full body chills multiple times throughout.
Absolutely incredible. Great reaction, too. Meg's excitement is so contagious.
Darth Vader´s dark tower it´s in Mustafar. The same planet where Obi Wan defeated him leaving limbless and burned. Those angry memories helped him to become stronger.
I just realized that even though the x-wings killed Galen. They also saved Jyn. Cuz Krennic was about to blast her.
I just realized that Tarkin and Krennic technically die within the same week, considering that A New Hope picks up right where Rogue One is left off
The ending of this movie makes ANH a lot funnier; Vader personally watched the Death Star plans get handed through a gap in the door and saw the Rebel ship get away from him.
And everyone on that same ship is basically going "lol we dunno what happened to the plans."
Never give them anything! Make them take it from you.
I mean the Empire lie to each other all the time, why not use that against them. Leia was no dummy - until she leads them to Yavin!
Not just "No idea where they are.", more like "No idea what you mean. What plans?"
@@AmarthwenNarmacil plans? what plans? i plan to have a party later i was just on my way is that what u mean? :)"
@@AmarthwenNarmacil Vadar " I watch you peel out of the parking lot"
So the Tarkin actor was Guy Henry, a good actor in my opinion, but they recreated Peter Cushing's likeness with CGI, with the permission from Cushing's estate.
It opens up a good conversation about using cgi to posthumously recreate an actor's performance. I think when for me when i pair it with the proposed James Dean movie from a few years ago the only thing i can come up with that can make it ethically alright is not only do you have to get the permission of the estate, that estate must have living family members that knew the decedent actor very well during their life and would be able to say with confidence that the deceased actor would have been happy to reprise the role if they were still alive. All boxes that the Cushing estate checked off handily. Thats why the james dean movie wouldnt have worked because there's nobody presiding over his estate right now that knew him in person and theres no way they could ever say he would have chosen to play the role in the film thats being developed. That estate cannot give trustworthy consent because its extremely likely for that estate to be money motivated in that decision.
@@justarandomveryintelligent8934 That's a bit of a garbled explanation. Everybody has an estate, whether living of dead. It's the assets you own, or, if dead, owned in sole title at the time of your death. Every state has probate procedures which include the necessary appointment of a human being to manage the decedent's estate, usually called "Executor" or "Personal Representative". A person's likeness and image is part of his estate. Using James Dean as an example, his image and likeness would be part of his estate, and usage of it would be managed by Dean's Exectutor. If's Dean's estate was deemed fully managed and closed, it could be reopened. Dean certainly has heirs as a matter of law, maybe second or third cousins by now. I doubt they would give the Estate's Executor any flack over signing a contract for the usage of Dean's likeness and image via CGI in the update of a classic movie that would provide those heirs with a nice and unexpected payday.
@@Yesquire0 my point is that if we're going to ethically use deceased actors's likenesses and voices posthunously, the estate executor that gives this permission must have known the deceased actor in life or have recorded documentation of anything that could be used as reliable evidence that the deceased actor would be ok with this happening and can give reliable consent based on these conditions. Thats why the executors of james dean's estate in my opinion cannot ethically give this consent because they have no ability to be reliable representation of James Dean.
The film i was referring to that would have used james dean's likeness was not a remake of one of his films. The director was making a brand new story and wanted to use james dean's likeness in a role in the film as a marketing stunt.
@@justarandomveryintelligent8934 I appreciate the expression of your opinion, but think it is not realistic. James Dean is dead. He has no say in how his image and likeness are going to be used. It is only of interest to his heirs. A lot of times people with lots of money name a bank to serve as their executor, or if they died old without a spouse or kids, it is not very likely their heirs were close to that person at the time of death, so the idea that Dean's Executor must be close to him and know how he felt about the usage of his image and likeness is not very accurrate, IMHO.
We have not mentioned yet the very likely possiblity that Dean may have had a Living Trust, in which case the Trustee, or, by now, a Successor Trustee, would decide how the assets are going to be utilized. It is unlikely that such Trust would have contained provisions directing the Trustee to be very particular as to how Dean's image would be used in future years, but if Dean actually was concerned about such matters, he could have put very detailed instructions in a Trust or a Will which his fiduciarty would be required to follow. Even then, it is likely that heirs only interested in money would Petition the probate court for relief from those restrictions.
Having everyone die for the mission and showing the sacrifice made is what made this movie so good.
Andor is 100% worth the watch even though you know Cassian's ultimate end. It's the best done Star Wars content in the Disney era IMHO (and is in the conversation for best ever).
It's shocking how good Andor was. I didn't care a thing about it when it was announced, but now it's one of my favorite pieces of Star Wars media.
Just think of it as a biopic of a long-gone historical legend! This whole saga was a long time ago, after all.
Could not disagree more
@@guaty4788 Then you're in the small minority. Congrats I guess. Wild guess here, you didn't watch it.
My heart sank when I heard "This is Blue Leader." There was no Blue squadron in Episode IV.
The rebel who ordered Cassian to kill Galen is just scared of what else Galen may make for the empire in the future. I can’t really blame him. Galen just built a planet killer and while he did sabotage it, the rebels don’t know that.
When Mon Mothma asks Bail Organa about the hidden jedi, it´s referring to Obi Wan Kenobi. And when he said "I would trust her with my life" he is talking about Princess Leia, his adoptive daughter. He arranged the plan to bring the plans to Obi Wan through Leia.
@@domingocurbelomorales8635 yeah she knows. That’s why she said “help me Obi-Wan Kenobi” right after that conversation was over
*"I am one with the force...the force is with me"*
Also still Vader's most badass scene ever in this movie at the end
From EVERYTHING I've heard you say in terms of your beliefs and themes that you love, I think Andor will become one of your favorite pieces of Star Wars media. It is so intelligently written. It is masterfully acted. I've been obsessed with star wars since I was 4, and in my 35(almost 36) years of living on this planet and consuming star wars material, Andor became my favorite.
The master switch......that moment when individual soldiers reach deep within and realize this is bigger than themselves and some things are necessary even if they die.
"Your DNA is full of hope." Beautiful sentiment.
The red head is Mon Mothma one of the founders of the rebel alliance and a close friend of organa and Padme. Important character helps with the financing of the rebellion.
Gareth Edwarss UNDERSTOOD THE ASSIGNMENT!!!
Mon Mothma had a minor role in Return of the Jedi during the Rebel Alliance briefing about the 2nd Death Star, and the actress here played her in a couple scenes in the Prequels, though most if I recall were cut for time or other reasons (I think they're well worth checking out, as they show more of Padme and Bail Organa taking an active role in trying to save the crumbling Republic). She got the chance to reprise her role in Andor, and it's where she gets the most time to shine by far. She is incredible in that show (as is essentially everyone).
I truly love this movie, it does a great job of showing that in a world of space wizards and killer droids normal men and woman can be heroes
I like how it makes Leia retroactively cooler. When Vader boarded the ship in A New Hope, Leia claimed it was a diplomatic mission. The ending here shows that Vader LITERALLY JUST SAW HER LEAVE THE SCENE OF A CRIME. She was lying to his face, knowing he knew the truth, and didn't bat an eyelid.
Hi Meg! This is one of my favorite movies!
Fun fact: When Diego Luna jumped to the tower in the Scarif vault, he broke his rib but did not notice it. He did not tell anyone about his injury.
Not a whole lot you can do a broken rib, after all. Short not not breathing, at least.
it was definitley insane dude wasnt even a jedi but hardcore believed in the force and in a very desperate moment just walked out did the impossible and made it even more heartbreaking on what happened to him
chirrut and baze's "i am the force and the force is with me" made me cry so much like- baze didn't believe in the force!!! he just believed in his best friend and wanted so badly to be one with the force so he could be with his friend again!! He looked to chirrut as he died!!! hoping that he'll find his friend in the force!! i sobbed
1:12:22
I turned into a ten year old boy during this scene in the theater. I got chills and started chuckling with glee with Vader's breath. And then, My Girlfriend had to remind me we weren't in our living room when I uncontrollably blurted out, giggling, "ya all dead now!" When Vader's Saber touched off out of the darkness.
Baze and Chirrut were both "Guardians of the Kyber temple. Sort of like Buddhist monks, deeply devoted to the Force. When the Empire took over Jedha to strip it of kyber crystals, Baze and Chirrut fought against them in an underground resistance and tried to help citizens and children, especially orphans that unfortunately had parents that were killed etc.
Baze essentially "loses his religion and faith". He drops the traditional robes for more practical gear. Thats why he is so against the Force and doesnt believe in it anymore, after seeing the atrocities of the Empire.
Thats why it means so much when Chirrut dies, he says "The Force is with me, and I'm one with the Force", hes showing his friend and they know they will both see each other in the Force.
People allute to a relationship between them, but in traditional Asian stories snd Wuxia style stories, the concept of "brothers in arms" is very common. They share a bond on many levels, and it shows in how they joke with each other.
Kudos on a great reaction, I am stoked that you enjoyed my favourite Star Wars movie. It hits on so many levels :)
This is easily Disney's best Star Wars content, by an absolute mile.
That would be Rebels - by some distance over anything like this.
"Are they going to die? They can't die, they have a plot armor!"
I have never been more entertained by someone eating their own words so brutally.
We aren’t still testing nuclear weapons, not only not daily but not at all (other than North Korea, and those have been few, underground not in ocean and by an isolated dictatorship outlier). Other than them the Comprehensive Nuclear Test Ban treaty meant the last known tests were in the 90s with the 90 USSR in 90, UK in 91, US in 92, France and China in 96 and Pakistani in 98. There’s apparently some suspicion China may have tested one in 2020 but it’s disputed.
1:12:49 I just wanna point out that He totally could have forced the door closed right there to prevent them passing the plans, there's no way he didn't hear "TAKE IT TAKE IT TAKE IT" but lil orphan annie can never pass up an opportunity for excess drama. For example B see Vader's cloak rippling in what is either a sealed ship environment or the vacuum of space, neither of which have a slight breeze to blow the cape the way it does, he's doing it himself because it looks more dramatic that way. 😂
4:00 "I'm so excited for this but I don't think I'm going to be very articulate"
Ah yes, the ADHD mantra lol.
1:13:56 ain't we all
Mon Mothma was in Return of the Jedi. She was one of the commanders explaining the mission to the rebels.
„Caleb is gonna watch the Acolyte on his own“ may god have mercy on his soul.
Also, Andor when?
Fun fact: When Chirrut(Donnie Yen) says "Are you kidding me I'm blind!" It was Donnie himself lol the director thought it was excellent and allowed it to stay in.
According to TH-cam comments, all movies are 100% unscripted. So-called "writers" get paid for nothing.
1:11:53 Oh, believe me we all thought the same thing. Now Andor is my favorite Star Wars show or movie. Can't wait for S2.
Many of us knew it'd be great because of the team involved.
Carrie Fisher passed away just a couple weeks before this movie came out in theaters. Needless to say the ending scene was very bittersweet.
@@andymiller6661 My bad. I must've been thinking of one point in the sequel trilogy with the old R2 archived footage and I got teary eyed.
@@andymiller6661 cmon man, no need to get so passive aggressive about a comment
@@andymiller6661 no need to be an a**hole about it if someone does.
@@andymiller6661 (you missed a "do") but it seems like you're gatekeeping now
The walkers at the end are not AT-AT's they are AT-ACT All Terrain Armored Cargo Transport a taller less armed and armored version which is why they were easily destroyed by x-wings and a door mounted ion machine gun
This is in my mount Rushmore of Star Wars movies.
Empire Strikes Back, A New Hope, Revenge Of The Sith and Rogue One
I'm with you in putting R1 over RotJ.
Some of the rebel pilot footage at scariff was unused footage from the original Star wars '77 cut
Don't forget in A New Hope, Luke was TRYING to join the empire. For him it was no different than joining the army at 18. If his application had been accepted imagine how different Luke would've been and Vader and the rebellion if Luke joined prior to meeting obi wan
I mean, it seemed more like he just wanted to join their flight academy and then defect like Biggs did. He is very interested in hearing about the Rebellion when Threepio mentions it, and he even says to Obi-Wan that he hates the Empire but that there's nothing he can do about it at the moment. He wants to leave Tatooine, but I wouldn't say he actively wanted to join the Empire's ranks.
@@a_fine_edition2746 Yes, this exactly.
@@andymiller6661 In A New Hope, when he's having dinner with Owen and Beru, he mentions wanting to submit his application to the academy before the next season.. I had the novelization--he was referring to the Imperial Academy to train as a pilot.
@@andreacalvillo353 I can just imagine Tarkin, Thrawn or some old clone going over paperwork, reading the new recruit list, seeing the name “Skywalker” and spitting out their blue milk.
@@andymiller6661 OP was clearly using the Army as an example to relate it to OUR world. That’s why they said “it’s no different than” and not “it is.” Do you know what an analogy is? People in our world join the army at 18. Luke was 17 in A New Hope and wanted to join the empire. Also even if Luke wasn’t applying for the army, he’d still be in the military. George Lucas based the Empire on America and the Rebellion on the Viet Cong. So we can assume the empire is run like the American military in which case, whether Luke became infantry, a pilot, a mechanic or anything else he’d still be in the military. The US Armed Forces consists of six branches: the Army, Marine Corps, Navy, Air Force, Space Force and Coast Guard. Each one is part of the military.
This is my favorite Star Wars movie. I loved how it made the Force seem mystical and it made Darth Vader feel like an entity rather than a man.
Carrie Fischer died the day I saw this. Someone found out while checking his phone after the lights came back on and announced it to the theater. A sad counterpoint to the ending of the movie.
I love the continuity between this and A New Hope. Most of Red and Gold Squadrons are archival footage of the same actors from the original, and Blue Squadron is notably absent because they all get wiped out here. Also Red 5 is killed, leaving that call sign open for Luke when he joins up.
Would love to see what you think of the first season of Andor :) Kinda cool that this was your starting point, even if you didn't really notice much :) Great to have such a long vid, very fun to relive it
And yeah, probably my favorite thing about Rogue One was how many different views there were within the Rebellion itself. So interesting
The baton thing you mention is more and more in mind as I grow older. We're the crest of the wave
Ben Mendelsohn is great actor. The realization that this same guy played the lead Skrull in Capt. Marvel blew me away.
Those pilots were the original actors. They used old unused footage from A New Hope so they could be used.
Jyn Erso is one of my new favorite Star Wars characters, so cool and tough
An original theme when Star Wars was first being written is "War is hell". The producers of this movie sought to bring back that feeling, I think they did a good job through their characters events.
So there was no Blue Squadron in A New Hope because it was interfering with the blue screen. They decided to kill them off in this one.
RIP Blue Squadron; you helped Rogue One pull off the most important heist in Rebel history.
This movie really enforces the ‘War’ aspect in Star Wars. These battles most of the time there is almost no happy ending or if there is people pay a high price for it as almost every character in this movie did. Vader’s elevator scene was without a doubt the most well done in the OG he was the bad guy revealed to be the tragic father of the hero in the prequels he we see the rise and fall that lead to who he became. But this showcases Darth Vader as what he is to all enemies of the Empire, a horror monster that strikes fear to all in his way.
I cant wait for you to tackle Andor... and yes, if it wasn't obvious enough it's a prequel lol.
It is legitimately some of the coolest pieces they have created in the franchise, and a lot of people pass it by cause it has no lightsabers...
I love your reaction to there being no opening crawl. Because the first time I saw this movie on opening night, I was so mad about it I thought I didn't like the movie. Then I saw it a second time and got over that initial response and loved it. Then I saw it a 3rd time the day Carrie Fisher died . . . I was not ok.
54:44 in lore the facility on scarif was seen as a pseudo-vacation for a lot of imperial officers and personnel due to the tropical climate and because of how secure and remote it was, barely anything ever happened there, safe to say they definitely got blindsided
1:01:16 Red 5 is Luke's call sign in episode 4, so basically its a homage to how Luke get the call sign Red 5
Unironically, my second favorite Star Wars film behind empire
I love your wholesome and bright perspective reactions! So...Andor...soon? :D
'may the force of others be with you' was in George Lucas' early drafts and was a play on words of 'may the lord be with you'
Man, when this came out in theaters
Went in expecting to watch Episode 3.5
Came out having watched Episode 3.99 and drove right home to watch Episode 4
Absolutely unforgettable experience
I went to see this a second time (I saw it first on opening night), with some family, we had already made plans to go. That morning before we left for the theatre was December 27, 2016, and the announcement of Carrie Fisher’s passing. This movie hit me so much more the second time maybe in part to the passing of, for many, the first named rebel we meet in Star Wars. I cried at the end the first time, I straight up sobbed when CGI Leia showed up on the screen the second time I saw it, and I was not the only one.
i remember watching leia make a cameo in this movie right after the death of carrie fischer and i sobbed so uncontrollably in that theater
When you were asking if Chirrut Imwe's actor does martial arts...yes, he is in fact, a legend. His name is Donnie Yen and as a kung fu movie afficionado he was one of my idols growing up, I would even put him above Jackie Chan, Jet Li and Bruce Lee. Recently he's been in a movie called "Ip Man" which is really good, it's a loose biographical movie about Bruce Lee's teacher and it was so good they made a ridiculous amount of sequels...in one sequel he even fights Mike Tyson. But I think my favorite Donnie Yen movie is either "Iron Monkey" or "Flashpoint", though.
“So is Andor a prequel? Why would we watch that?”
Most of us wondered the same thing. Then we watched it, and we understood why. You will too if you watch it.
Movie trivia: The rebel that pulls the lever to launch Princess Leia's ship at the end was none other than director Gareth Edwards.
I love your guys' editing, y'all are hilarious 😂❤
I read a comment a while a go that makes this ending of this movie and the beginning of episode IV even funnier, because basically Leia is sassing Vader the whole time when he boards her ship during A New Hope. Because he knows she's lying, and she knows he knows she's lying, but she's like bullshitting anyway.
This movie is always bittersweet for me. I really enjoy this movie. It is very entertaining and a perfect fit in the Star Wars filmography, but the day I first saw it the theater was the day that Carrie Fisher passed away. My friend and I had just taken our seats in the theater, and he was checking his phone one last time before the previews started when he saw the news and told me. So, when Princess Leia showed up at the end and said, "Hope" it was hard to keep my emotions in check.
1:10:28 "do you think anybody's listening" hits a lot harder after andor
The black stormtroopers are called death troopers. They’re elite stormtroopers who act as bodyguards and enforcers for high ranking imperial officers like Krennic. That’s why they’re always with him. Black is also the color of the empire’s pilots.
Chirrut is definitely Force sensitive in my opinion. He just wasn't strong enough to be chosen by the Jedi Order, so he served in what capacity he could.
K2 saying "goodbye" always get me.
Love your reaction, as always 🥰 The “black stormtroopers” are called Deathtroopers. They are highly elite troopers responsible for special operations and security of high-level personnel (like Director Krennic).
RIP Chirrut Imwe (the character) :(
he was one with force, and the force was with him.
Awesome that you have reacted to Rogue One, definitely do Andor next :) think you will enjoy it because it is the best Star Wars series to date! Season 2 is just around the corner!! and the story will tie in to directly to this movie..
47:18 @MegMageReacts hahaha I honestly didn't pay attention to the reaction or the movie during this little moment because of your Puppy 😍 it's so adorable and pleasant in his sleep while you react 😅😂
I hope you get to watch Andor! Such a beautiful experience. Can’t wait for season 2!
Oregano and Mothman 😂😂😂
Love your reaction. I'm glad you enjoyed it this time. It is one of my favourite Star Wars movies and certainly the best from Disney.
Rogue One is the best Star Wars project - in film or on TV - in the last 20 years. Admittedly, that's a low bar. I could watch the final 5 minutes on a loop.
Please for the love of god do not skip out on watching Andor because he dies in this 🙏. The show is so much more than his backstory. It is legit peak star wars.
i love the editing sm!! 😆😆
I saw Rogue One in the theater just after Carrie Fisher's passing. The final scene had me in tears. RIP 😢
Star Wars Rogue One is an amazing movie🔥💯
Rogue One is one of the finest made SW movie, right alongside The Empire Strikes Back. I get goosebumps every time I watch it. Aside from the obviously AI faces of Tarkin and Leia, the rest of the movie is just about flawless.
So glad u loved this film & characters. When this came out people were doin it dirty ; it didn’t have enough pew pew action, there was no Jedi, it was too grounded, etc. It was a mature SW movie with lotta heart
Rogue One one of the Best Star Wars movies in History !!!
