Kohle, Fans, etc. ... aber irgendwie erklärt sich mir der Sinn nicht ganz ...

Ich... habe das dazu in FB geschrieben:

Spoiler free!
Just returned home from watching Rogue One:
Generally excellent movie with a few minor flaws... Entertaining throughout! BUT I would imagine that boxoffice-wise it will stay behind TFA as this is - in my opinion - not a movie that most people will watch more than once, maybe twice at the theatre. Just my two cents...
Some great surprises in the movie though! But enough said...GO, watch it!

Jupp, mir hat "Rogue One" auch sehr gefallen. Hab ihn mir Mittwoch Nacht angesehen, in sehr netter Atmosphäre, sehr viel Cosplay im Kino. (Lichtschwerter en masse)
Für mich hat der Film so ziemlich genau das geliefert, was ich erwartet hatte. Und ja, ich mag den Fanservice! Zumal es für mein empfinden gut dosiert eingesetzt worden ist. ("Wir wollen keinen Ärger!") Die Story bringt keine großen Überraschungen, aber ist auch keine Enttäuschung. Große Logikbrüche zu Episode IV gibt's auch nicht. Zwischen den Tagen gibt's noch mal ein re-watch-

Spoiler:

Das Peter Cushing wieder als Tarkin zu sehen war, fand ich sehr schön, auch wenn es ein wenig creepy ist, die toten Stars per CGI wieder zu beleben.

Also den einen digitalen Charakter fand ich schon sehr überzeugend (weiß jetzt grad nicht, welchen zweiten du meinst).

Dann aber bitte nur mit Hayden Christensen als Darth Vader!

There is an enduring mystery surrounding Rogue One: What happened to the crew of the Hammerhead starship?

They’re the ones (spoiler warning) who crash their vessel into a crippled Star Destroyer, ramming it into another Imperial battleship and using both to shatter the shield gate protecting the Empire’s research facility on Scarif.

Without the action of this Hammerhead Corvette, Jyn Erso and Cassian Andor would not have been able to transmit the Death Star plans to the Rebel fleet. And although there was no shortage of sacrifice in this battle, fans have been wondering if the crew of the Hammerhead was definitely among the casualties.

It turns out, the filmmakers debated about this, too. And the question has an answer…

Rogue One executive producer and Industrial Light and Magic visual effects supervisor John Knoll tells EW: “There was some talk about, ‘Hey, is this a suicide mission? Are all these guys going down with the Star Destroyers?’ I started pushing for this idea that maybe in one of the shots we could have all these lifeboats, the escape pods, shoot out of it.”

Picture this: As the mid-sized Rebel starship smashes the two Imperial goliaths together, driving them toward the planet below, a plume of small objects erupt from its undercarriage.

“We did an animation of that, but Gareth [Edwards, the director] thought it was a little distracting, so we turned that off,” Knoll says.

But the VFX team kept fighting for the lives of those Rebels, using some of the cutaway shots to justify an unseen escape.

“The last shot you see of the Star Destroyers crashing down through the gate — it’s a very subtle thing, and it would probably be hard to tell this – but the lifeboats are all gone on the Hammerhead,” Knoll tells EW. “It’s my story that the Hammerhead crew got into the life boats and made it out.”

So, the Hammerhead crew lives! … Sort of.

As fans know from the original 1977 Star Wars, these pods can’t really do much more than plummet.

“Our story was that they made it down to the surface of Scarif, and were standing around the beach going, ‘You know what, it isn’t so bad here!” Knoll says.

Then, as the Death Star fires up its laser … “’Hey, what’s that bright thing on the horizon?’”
