They didn't need to be remembered. They were all on their way out.
Disney had nothing to do with the prequels.But I'm saying the prequels were done without Disneys involvement, right? The IP sale didn't come till after the prequel trilogy.
I liked Rogue One more than The Force Awakens.
Not because Rogue One was spectacular or anything, but simply because TFA is meaningless, with some horrid scenes and glaring plot holes or loops or repeats of previous films.
TFA was doomed from the script, which mean doomed from the get go, and there was no way of fixing it. Think of being the director and you have to make a great movie when the characters from the script are:
- A stormtrooper who is a coward, a traitor and a deserter. He sweats a lot. He also has to be cast by a black actor who is unknown.
- A cute-faced girl who is a scavenger and in 2 minutes, becoms a jedi master. She needs to have british accent, look like Keira Knightley without being Keira Knightley. So you will be making a new Jedi Knightley.
- A deformed thing who pretends to be mean while transmitting over a big hologram with the voice of a comedian. He probably looks like that because of too much meth. Not even once.
- A rat-faced emo teenager who throws tantrums and then gets molested by the cute-faced scavenger.
- The awe inspiring Captain Phasma, who in less than .3 seconds, will betray her troops, superior officers, order and the imperium in general by agreeing to help destroy their super weapon because she's being held by a fur monster, an elder counterfeiter, and who knows who else.
A for Rogue One: If they cut out all the crap, they could add some 25-45 minutes of film to Episode IV. An extended version if you may call it so.
Things which made Rogue One worse:
- Kung fu guy. They didn't get the memo? It's been 20-25 years where kung fu guys only appear in comedies or chinese-historical films. No contribution to the plot, no clear background, terrible acting and ridiculous action and fighting scenes. Even agaist stormtroopers, who are the weakest and worst fighting force in the history of the universe, stickfighting is not an option.
- Boyfriend of kung fu guy. So he was in the movie to cry when kung fu guy dies. We understand, it's some interracial love.
Diego Luna's and the girl' acting were solid. The action sequences, sans kung fu, were decent. Visual effects were good in a star-warsey-sense.
All in all it's an entertaining film and i would recommend anyone to watch it.
But had it not existed... NOBODY would care.

jus saying.
Rogue one was superior in every way imo. "Who's with me!!!"
I hope episodes 8 and 9 step it up. Or Disney will feel my nest wrath
That's nerd wrath (GD auto correct)
I thought Rogue One was better too
I think a consensus poll of our nerdbrethren would've played this out.
