Han wasn't married. The girl (Sana) was just doing it for recognition and attention. The vader confrontation thing is ehhhhhh but I don't mind it.

I have apathy for this movie, although a good trailer could change my mind.

I kinda get that. I'm like that with the Bobba Fett and Han Solo movies.

These movies feel kinda unnecessary 'cause they keep wanting to make the anthology films set in the time period between RotS and ANH, when going back before the prequels (Old Republic) would be the best place to make an anthology series.

Rogue One's the only one I'm very interested in, though, since it's going to have a darker tone and be an actual war movies.

Same here. Rogue One is the only anthology film I'm excited for.

I'm looking forward to the movie, but that teaser for the teaser is very, very silly. If all you are prepared to show is a wonky Storm Trooper turning his head, then don't release anything.

Looks gritty and lacks the SW Magic.

Perfect for people that think they get this franchise, but don't.

Pretty much what I was thinking.

This is a generic action movie, but with Star Wars locations and sets.

Great to see Mon Mothma will be there, on Yavin. She looks a little young though compared to how Caroline Blakiston looked in RotJ (there's presumably only a handful of years difference between Rogue One and RotJ here, given the thought R1 must be set not too long before ANH). Blakiston was 38 when filming her role.

Vader will be in the film so... there won't be a complete lack of lightsabres heh.

I wonder if Emperor Palpatine will make an appearance as well?

There has got to be a scene of Emperor Palpatine giving Darth Vader some orders, maybe via the hologram kind of like in Empire Strikes Back.

Jesus, that was incredible.

Honestly, I'm so happy that they're not playing off of nostalgia. They're just making the movie set in that time period between Revenge and Hope. They're not trying to paint this out as, "Oh hey, original Stormtroopers," they're making it its own story. And I can't appreciate them enough for that. That was one of my biggest concerns about this movie, and it's nice to see that they're doing this movie correctly.

About this female lead crap, who cares? As long as she's a likable character, that's all that matters.

Its been confirmed that Mon Mothma is being played by the same actress, who played her in a Revenge Of The Sith deleted scene.
