I know, I know.... and I'm going with the film as a whole, and I love it. #3 on the Star Wars list. That's huge... it took 40 years to crack that slot from Jedi (one of the original OT mind you).
Just sayin' if I had my druthers. You should see my "change" list for 'Jedi'

The cgi was fantastic, look at RDJ in civil war i could have sworn it was RDJ right out of Weird Science or Less than Zero, I love they brought dead characters and young ones, its way better than making a lame
Excuse about a missing character, tarkin was essential

Khevbacca > Kurt Russell
DiFabio if you want validation that Tarkin and Leia weren't perfect you got it man. Not even as good as young RDJ earlier in the year or young Michael Douglas the year before. And kara I haven't seen Manchester by the Sea but if it's like a lot of critically acclaimed dramas then I wouldn't be the least bit surprised if overall the acting was more impressive than what was on display in RO.
We'll all just concede both of those points okay?
But now it's time for you both to come into the fold and join us in our undying love for Rogue One from this day forth.
Oh man.

TFA did memba mostly wrong.
RO did memba mostly right.
RO did memba mostly right.
This "memba" stuff is an old tired , worn out argument.
1. RO and TFA set in same universe...so of course some things are going to be tied in. No Tie fighter or Star Destroyer in RO? That would be stupid.....I'll give you Dr. E.....that was tacked on.....but as a film maker....I doubt I could resist throwing in a few of these for fun.
2. Tarkin. Watch this with a few "younger" or "less jaded" normal people and you will find 90% of then has no idea there were any other CGI characters in it besides Leia....so Disney succeeded on that front. I hope they keep pushing this envelope.
3. RO was made for a general audience....not all the nerds on this forum, or all over the world. Most people enjoyed both films.....so to the angry hard core SW nerds.....you lose. Your outnumberd, and these film will continue to be made because the average film goer does not give a crap about Wedge , or if a droid is missing from ANH that is in RO, or that Vader should have force grabber the plans right off the bat, or that Rey learned the force to "quickly" judged through some imaginary time scale one needs to learn and imaginary skill.
Angry nerds being angry that a movie doesn't live up to their obsession......

I could be watching Rogue One right now, but opted for Samurai Cop.

I agree with your points xipotec but I don't think that anyone here is angry. Just people messing with each other on both sides of the debate. I appreciate karamazov and DiFabio constantly bringing up RO because then I have another excuse to talk about it.
That reminds me, jye I totally agree about K-2's "death" scene. He went out like a champ yet it was still sad, especially with him being the first of the group to pay the ultimate price. Even later on when Krennic and his guards are walking across that catwalk above the vault and you see in the bottom corner of the screen all those dead troopers on the floor with K-2's inoperative body in the center of them. Just a quiet little memorial of the heroism that occurred just moments before with no one to remember it except those in the audience.

I suppose you'll watch Goonies after that?
Seriously considering Ghoulies 3: Ghoulies go to College. But anything could happen. . .apart from watching Rogue One again.

You don't have to be old and jaded to see when something looks clearly fake. I hope Disney seal that particular envelope and mail it to a galaxy further away.

Ford is one short dude. Musta used Fisher's soapbox for all his scenes.
