EPTReally like seeing a more gritty, down to earth story following people who aren't the core characters. Though ofc we will see Vader, and it WILL be glorious.
Surprised no Bothans in the trailer. Maybe they all died already?

It becomes a boring story line. So yea, I will probably still go to the cinema for this movie, but I am not as hyped, as I was for The Force Awakens. Also Daisy Ridley will be missed by me  I really liked her and now I gotta wait til next year december and have this instead (which will be most likely crap..) | ||

The problem is that you can guess the whole story line from that one short trailer and I am quite dissapointed by that. Sure TFA was quite the Episode 4 copy and I actually really loved the concept of it and the movie itself, but I hope they start showing new stuff in Episode 8 and 9. Thus I am not really convinced from taking on "another" death-star in a star-wars movie. It becomes a boring story line.

That stuff is set in stone because of Episode IV (Unless they borrow old canon and the fate of Despraye). This looks primarily like a military spy/ heist type film. Get in, get out (or not) with the plans. The Death Star is the backdrop, but the story structures differently (I think). What I mean is the plot is structured around the plans rather than the station itself, putting it inline with Mission Impossible, Ocean's 11, and Inception type movies, team of misfits, etc. For sure, but I worry they'll have a Death Star infiltration scene, which will piss off a lot of people for being to rehashed. Cool though that we'll get to see the Alliance's first victory though. Hope that doesn't get retconned. I also like the idea of playing with the idea of it being a "noble rebellion." In lore, the insurrection starts as a basically elite, aristocratic affair, and attracts all kinds of rogues and brigands. Cool to see that culture clash a little between genteel Mon Mothma and the rugged soldiers flocking to her banner. (Hint of that in the scene with the hero getting escorted by the Alderaanian trooper.) I'd love to see a bit of that Corellian/OuterRim vs. Alderaanian/Chandrillan tension. (In a later movie you could expand on the tension by including the Mon Calamari in the mix. I always thought the MonCal takeover of the Rebellion between 5 and 6 was an awesome example of making a world come alive by having a political backstory implied but unstated. The integration must have been very interesting as the shattered Hoth survivors and this powerful alien race joined up, adding the capital ship firepower the Rebellion had always lacked. Then the Rebel uniforms all become Mon-Cal colored, even while retaining their Alderaanian rank insignia et. al. Would be neat to see that process play out.) Otherwise, cool enough. I'll stay at "somewhat hyped" until I see X-Wings. At which point I will lose all mature self-control and start fist-pumping and shouting and whooping. (Like with TFA trailer) | ||

Rogue One is about the raid to get the plans for the first Death Star. I don't think there'll be too much Death Star in this movie. They'll probably just show it being built, but looks like the rebels will most likely raid another Imperial installation to get the plans. This raid will probably be a big deal, since the opening crawl to A New Hope states that it's the Rebel Alliance's first major victory against the Empire. | ||

I fucking love a great tale of a hero falling from grace or a villain earning redemption and I'm pretty sure that is what this trailer is telling us this movie is about. Plus there is god damn Mandalorians! GET HYPE! | ||

This looks 10x more better and more hype than your regular Star Wars stuff. | ||
