Watched Rogue One with the wife last night.
It was honestly, a bit of a mess. the music was everywhere like a cow on a slippery killing floor, and you can tell they excised large chunks and re-did others, there were things that were sorta dumb to waste time on and wasted time that could have been better put to use in stuff like building out the characters. That being said, it was still a fun and entertaining mess. It would be interesting to see the original cut because it's obvious that Disney did the best they could to salvage it, and it's a huge credit to them that they were able to. There were a few things that were eye roll worthy (the scene where they have to climb the tower at the end? Come on. And the obvious fact that the two main characters were supposed to fall for each other at the end. thank god Disney was smarter than Whitta and took that out. And the CG of the characters? Especially Leia? Come on Disney, you're mother fucking Disney, how in the world did you get this so wrong? You make magic happen regularly everywhere, but you couldn't do it here?
