Darth Krawlie Posted August 16, 2016 Share Posted August 16, 2016 I wonder if the base Mon Mothma and co are at is Yavin, or maybe it's Dantooine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Driver Posted August 16, 2016 Share Posted August 16, 2016 GAWD JACOB Dantooine had been abandoned for SOME TIME. EVERYONE KNOWS THAT... FrickN a-hole Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Driver Posted August 16, 2016 Share Posted August 16, 2016 Also I never bought Mon Mothra as head of the Alliance. I mean, hello... Vagina. She gets her period and orders attacks on Death Stars and people die. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the trumpet player 2 Posted August 16, 2016 Share Posted August 16, 2016 I accept that people have criticisms about TFA. I understand a lot of them. The Mary Sue nonsense is just that, nonsense. Thanks Mara, you've just backed up my argument regarding fan mentality 100% by disregarding a very valid criticism as nonsense.

the trumpet player 2 Posted August 16, 2016 Share Posted August 16, 2016 I like the actress playing Mon Mothma, she came across a lot stronger than any of the actors in the deleted scenes from the prequels. I thought she was perfectly cast as a much younger version of the character. Now she is playing her just a few years younger than she was in 'Return of The Jedi', which does bother me a bit. This means she is going to age drastically over a period of just a few years. Â She comes across with the authority and intellect you would expect from a mature and intelligent politician or leader (which only really exist in fantasy ;-).

pavonis Posted August 16, 2016 Share Posted August 16, 2016 So Rogue One looks good, eh? Â Â Even if it isn't about fighter pilots? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darth Krawlie Posted August 16, 2016 Share Posted August 16, 2016 Â So Rogue One looks good, eh? Â Â Even if it isn't about fighter pilots?I was just thinking about this the other day, how hilarious it is we gave you so much shit for suggesting this might not end up being about rogue squadron, and you ended up being right.

the trumpet player 2 Posted August 16, 2016 Share Posted August 16, 2016 Do you think we will see Leia and the Droids at the end getting the plans and then boarding the Blockade Runner ? I can imagine it being seen from a distance from the point of view of one of the characters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dark Wader Posted August 16, 2016 Share Posted August 16, 2016 Thanks Mara, you've just backed up my argument regarding fan mentality 100% by disregarding a very valid criticism as nonsense.Actually I think she retorted with a very valid reason as to why the criticism is wrong. You say Star Wars fans are in denial but I think you're denial with regard to how right she is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mara Jade Skywalker Posted August 16, 2016 Author Share Posted August 16, 2016 It's not Rogue Squadron, it's Wraith Squadron! And there are X-wings in the trailer. I have faith. Kind of. Â (I still want Top Gun in space though dammit.)Â *looks at trailer trumpet just posted, looks at the video I posted, states into camera like its the office* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mara Jade Skywalker Posted August 16, 2016 Author Share Posted August 16, 2016 Wasn't Alderaan the first test though?Rogue One makes it look like Jedha might be, really... Alderaan wasn't planned, so maybe Jedha was the initial test and Alderaan was the operational demonstration?

Driver Posted August 16, 2016 Share Posted August 16, 2016 Confirmation that Jyn's father is in fact a character and sent the message. And everyone is saying Madds Mikkelson plays the part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jacen123 Posted August 16, 2016 Share Posted August 16, 2016 The moustached guy mentions that Erso's father is the one who sent the alert about the weapons test. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mara Jade Skywalker Posted August 16, 2016 Author Share Posted August 16, 2016 EW confirmed he's playing her father, Galen Erso, a few weeks back. But we didn't know about the message part. So it seems like he's turning traitor on the Empire. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
