  • Wow! Tons of new footage in this one.

  • Here's an article that contains the first look of the cast from the new STAR WARS: Rogue One. After reading the article, it made me think that we will see Darth Vader again...and the old X-Wing...a

    The toy packaging was revealed today... Not too shabby, I suppose.

I noticed the Amazon thing too but didn't know it was a negotiation issue. I have no need for 3D. The lowest BD/DVD/Digital HD combo pack I could find is this. From DeepDiscount for $17.23 (no tax) for another 3 hours. Anyone else find one cheaper?

They raised the price! I should've bought it when I had the chance. Oh well.

BP Rule #1: You buy, then you post :)

Speaking about the movie itself : Its was a great improvement after the terrible The Force Unleashed. The city battle was very realistic and actual, like modern urban warfare. Only the stardestroyer crash in the end was a cheap solution for a strategic stalemate. Total crap , a stupid suggestion by a drunk assistent of the director i guess.

Excuse me what? That hammerhead scene is arguably one of the greatest Star Wars scenes to date.

The Hammerhead was a callback to the Rebels TV series.  Why was it stupid ? You see a huge space debris, you push it to destroy a big floating shield generator

I agree. That was a genius move in my opinion. They sacrificed a small ship and took out two flagships and the shield generator.

From a movie perspective it was cool to see. From militarty, it was very unrealistic

1. A very passive response from the imperial navy, allowing such move

2. The mass comparison of a imperator and a small rebel ship. Even with the momentum drive of engines, making it hard to control the precise direction

3. Meaning, the chance of collision of two mayor ships, combined with letting one of them smashing to a desired space station is statisticly zero. 

Thus, in perspective of tactical and mathematical propabilty, this whole scene was quite nonsense. Not bad to see, but far from realistic.

From my human perspective, laser sword wielding monks fighting a fascist tyranny while flying hunks of metal garbage in space and shooting lights at each other is also far from realistic.

And a blind guy taking down dozens of stormtroopers wielding laser firing guns is unrealistic too. 

Pew pew pew.

Just like how Death Star 2 blew up so close to moon of Endor yet did not cause any damage to the moon???? :cool:

Guy is giving technical-physical-statistic analysis about the movie which is focused on unknown and unshaped "force" which allows you to control minds and things as well as lightsabers and intergalactic transportation between systems mounted on most of the space ships within reach of your finger.

Finally saw this flick tonight (rented for $1.04).

Awesome movie and millions times better than "copy/paste-IV", honestly that was such bull-crap.

Watching it again when the action starts getting good before the 3 days is up.  I guarantee I'll get in another 2-4 viewings before it expires.
