Awesome bad buys. An un-assuming hero against all odds... Timeless cinema magic. Come to think of it, I should make a die hard sticker for the Palace cinema. I remember when it first came out, reading "It will blow you through the back wall of the theatre!, and my friend and I were like "yea - sure it will" And when it was over, we were like "yea, It really did!" 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I ranted in another thread yesterday how the Star Wars lego line will get old fast if they just keep regurgitating the same ships but just change out the minifigures. This years line especially, it seems like that is mostly what was done. This isn't really a knock at the movie Rogue One, because X-wings, and AT-AT's and Deathstars are a major part of the story, but long term I dont' think that will help with selling the merchandise. And I don't think this affects Hasbro as much as it effects Lego. Hasbro can just crank out 20 new characters from these films. But lego is forced to work with the ships and vehicles, and if they are constantly the same, well that's going to put a damper on this line very fast. We already had two x-wings come out with TFA. If they put another x-wing for Rouge One, and then another in Ep8, it's going to be a constant regurgitation of x-wings and tie's that at that point, whose going to keep buying each small iteration? I'm already at the point where I don't want to buy anymore x-wings, tie's, At-At's or millennium falcons. If it just becomes ship after regurgitated ship, just to get 5 new minifigures, i'd rather disney allows lego to release a collectible minifigure line with each of these films. And lego instead focuses on 2 or 3 unique sets, or maybe just one giant UCS type set for each film. My opinion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zskid00 Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 (edited) So how many times does the blind martial artist get to catch the Stormtroopers off guard before they shoot him? I don't get the amount of hand-to-hand combat being used when these troopers all have blasters. Shoot first, ask questions later. Or maybe they just have the same accuracy as the OT Stormtroopers.

No, he's actually one of the rebels. His name is Chirrut, and he is a follower of the jedi religion, but not a jedi himself. Baze, who is like his "chewie" is his protector and he's the one with an arsenal of weapons and has to bail him out a lot. If you watch the rogue one panel from star wars celebration they dive into it a little bit. So my guess is, this guy is getting into trouble and Baze has to constantly use his gun to get him out of it.

Alpinemaps Posted July 15, 2016 Share Posted July 15, 2016 I'm just starting the feed of the Rogue One panel now. Word of warning, if you're planning to watch it - one of the actors spoiled something in the panel, on accident. I won't say anything else, but just be warned.

zskid00 Posted July 16, 2016 Share Posted July 16, 2016 We don't have a lot of context for the beach battle yet, but I would expect the Empire would use more troops to guard and/or retrieve the Death Star plans. Doesn't look like a large scale battle from what I've seen but I'm sure the AT-ATs will be in there from the earlier trailer we saw. I thought these were quite entertaining: 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
