I’m not going to read all that shit: Rogue One was fucking awesome.

[–] bamboo@lemmy.blahaj.zone 10 points 12 hours ago (1 children)

about 2/3 of what they're saying is about the production and trailers before the movie was released. Other critiques about no character growth for Andor, but not mentioning Jyn's arc at all.

Also Rogue One brought us Andor, so even if it was a terrible movie, it spawned some of the best TV in the last 5 years, which says a lot about the movie and the characters.

Also no character growth for Andor while also complaining that he kills a guy in cold blood but then doesn't kill Galen later under orders. And then breaks orders again because he put his faith in Jyn and not the Rebels.

Rogue One is a good movie and I don't care about production issues. It made the Empire far more menacing than even the OT did. Peak Vader. Peak Death Star. Even peak Stormtroopers.

Yeah I didn't want to analyze that too much, but the circumstances were completely different. The first guy he had to kill for his own preservation. The second time he was under no threat and starting to defy orders and listening to Jyn. It's almost like a nitpick for the sake of picking things apart.

Which is why you'll never know Rogue One is trash. LOL.
