    The trailer for this just dropped, and it looks pretty gritty- I'm looking forward to it!


    About eight more months to go for this one, it should hold us fans over until Episode 8. ;)

    It looks so goddamn good. I think I'm looking forward to this more than I was looking forward to The Force Awakens.

    My only quibble so far is that I wonder why stormtroopers even bother to wear armor anymore; it doesn't protect them from blaster fire and now they can even get punched like they're not wearing anything...

    Never mind, I figured it out:

    The armor is for show. Its purpose is to turn the storm troopers into faceless interchangeable automatons. Storm troopers are expendable so protecting them isn't really a high priority. Hence why there is also a height requirement (aren't you a little short for a storm trooper?); they all have to be within range to maintain the illusion of all being identical.

    Or so the lore goes, anyway.

    That trailer was excellent. It feels like the Star Wars film I've always wanted to see. I hope it doesn't let me down.

    Just because they're armored doesn't mean all blunt force trauma should be stopped. Considering this is a world with the Force and Force strength, I have a little hope the trooper being hit with more than just stick being swung by a regular person.

    I didn't know what this movie was about, and frankly wasn't that interested.

    Remember how, in Episode IV, they k re about the Death Star in detail because they said the plans had been stolen?

    My understanding is that this movie is about how those plans got stolen.

    I'm not going to watch another Star Wars movie until they include Rocky Balboa!

    I think this film looks even better than The Force Awakens did in its trailers.

    Bought tickets to go see this Friday.

    My wife, who had never seen Star Wars until after we were married, just asked if we can rewatch Episode IV in anticipation of Rogue One, since she knows this falls chronologically just before IV. :cool:
