I didn’t really like most of those characters. They were mostly boring, with the exception of k2so. As long as he’s there to keep the show from being a boring snooze, I’ll watch it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sh9000 Posted March 17, 2022 Author Share Posted March 17, 2022 I'll probably watch the series mainly for K-2SO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pablumatic Posted March 17, 2022 Share Posted March 17, 2022 Were there any fans wanting more Rogue One character stories? I always thought the movie only did as well as it did due to Disney striking when the iron was hot for Star Wars movies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So Filoni cut an awesome character for one of his own creations? Yuck, yuck, yuck. I hate Creator's Pets, which is why I refuse to acknowledge Grand Admiral Thrawn in anything other the Heir to the Empire trilogy. I haven't seen Clone Wars or Rebels or Wzhhkaohokcokk. I don't care to see characters from that. I don't have the wow factor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mog Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 Well, they really nailed the last time Obi and Maul met in Rebels. Gonna be damn near impossible to improve that scene. Thrawn in Rebels was a character to be feared and respected. Thought they really understood and “got” his character right, every time he was onscreen.

As long as there are classic Imperial Stormtroopers, Tie Pilots and such I'll be interested. Andor himself will be the same as Hikaru in Macross to me. An expendable extra.

Big s Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 Hikaru was a thousand more times entertaining than Andor. He had bad luck was totally goofy, but grew into a skilled leader and ladies man. The only thing Andor has going for him is a super cool killbot with an attitude Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mog Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 Is there anything wrong with a super cool killbot with an attitude? Seems to be a winning formula for Star Wars: - Dark Troopers; - HK-47; - Artoo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big s Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 Nothing wrong with the killbot at all, just everyone else from rogue one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mog Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 The two guys from Jedha (Chirrut and Baze) were interesting enough. Blind booty-kicker and disillusioned believer with a big honkin’ gun. Rogue One checked a lot of boxes for me. I’m willing to concede that the whole Blockade Runner escaping mere moments before Vader gets to them is stretching it a bit. But that whole infiltration and final battle worked for me. Plus, a bunch of Star Wars has been about daddy issues. . . . . so, Rogue One fits the mold! 😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kalvasflam Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 Rogue One was actually pretty good from my POV. TFA was in general ok, and I would say Rogue One was basically the highwater mark for the Disney stewardship of the cinematic star wars universe. It all went down hill from there. Solo wasn't that awful, but then they brought on TLJ and whatever that last movie was. Sure it was a quantum improvement from TLJ, but as hard as it was going from 0 to 1; they are still a long way from 100... or even a 50. And TLJ was more like a -30.

Big s Posted March 18, 2022 Share Posted March 18, 2022 I guess my problem with Rogue one was that I really only remember three characters, with everyone else being completely forgettable. The main two were just extremely boring and I just didn’t care about them. The droid was cool. And there was the usual Star Wars eye candy. And some crusty dude that they went to rescue and he just basically said nah, I’m good here bro. And the were like hey we got a sip and you fits and he was still like nah I don’t need to live any more I’m just gonna go out like Clark kent’s Dad from man of steel.

Filoni elevated Darth Maul to a principal character by the end of Clone Wars, and bent over backwards to squeeze him into Rebels as well. 🤔 I could be talked into your PoV for Maul, but I will stand firm on Ashoka as a Creator's Pet appearing in everything. I haven't seen any of her appearances other than Mando S2, and that's quite enough for me. Quote Apparently you've skipped all the good Star Wars content over the last two decades. So I'm told. But I like Robotech, so my tastes are already suspect I saw the first trailer for Rebels and it excited me... right up until I saw the kid pick up the lightsaber and do the classic pose. That's when I had a good idea more or less how the show would pan out and I lost all interest. Quote Did you see The Last Jedi? Yes, to my eternal regret. They did Luke DIRTY in that film, though I will admit the "Mind Trick an entire planet of people from across the Galaxy" was a pretty cool Skywalker-y thing to do. Quote Solo: A Star Wars Story? Yes, but in digital download so I skipped large portions of it. I didn't enjoy it, though Donald Glover as Lando was perfect casting! Quote The Book of Boba Fett, perhaps? Nope. S2 of Mandalorian disappointed me so badly that I lost any interest in BoBF. I really should give it a try, but I'm loathe to reactivate Disney+ for just one show. 21 hours ago, tekering said: Sucker. 😝 See above "Robotech" statement.
