Having fights happen off screen in a monster movie is not okay,

Once they got there it was great, though. Better to tease and deliver rather than drag the same old destruction scenes out for the whole film.

But it didn't tease it frustrated it's a subtle but important difference, mainly because what they cut away to was not entertaining there were two movies going on only one did i want to see.

kick ass front man Aaron Taylor-Johnson is a good actor but in godzilla he was dull and uninteresting i found my self constantly asking why they thought killing Brian Cranston off was a good idea, Ken Watanabe great actor does nothing and looks like he's sleep walking through scenes.

You should NEVER want to see a child character die but by the time we got to that scene on the bridge i was practically begging for it.

So yeah one good fight scene at the end does not excuse a bad film's other flaws.

Then maybe the genre isn't for you.

Rebel pilots with helmet markings! I've spotted one that matches John Branon's, and one, God help me, that looks like Davish Krail's.

Fingers are crossed.

At 1:57 there's a helmet with same insignia as on Krail's helmet. Look to the far left of the screen.

PS: I only wished the main characters were Jan and Kyle... oh Disney...

That's because this is the origin story for Rey's mother, and it certainly isn't Jan Ors.

I know I saw Dodonna in the background.

I just want one to be Kyle. That's all I care about.

THe trailer looked pretty good too.

It looks like this Jyn character is taking the place of Kyle. Looking like she's the main protagonist.

She almost looks like an Inquisitor in the last shot.

No Jyn is clearly taking Jan's place. The one guy (Diego Luna) looks really similar to Kyle, and I would be surprised if it wasn't him with his name slightly mangled. (Jan Ors, Jyn Erso? That's not a coincidence)

No what I'm saying is that this is basically Dark Forces, but instead of playing Kyle you are playing Jan.

Might be the case or we just did not get the Kyle scenes. Keep in mind that Jan was undercover with the imperials and met Kyle when he was still an imperial cadet leader. For all we know Kyle Katarn could be the Antagonist in this one or deflect mid movie tot he Rebells.

So yeah one good fight scene at the end does not excuse a bad film's other flaws.

Nah, they're not bugs, they're features.

I know I saw Dodonna in the background.

That would explain. The name 'Jan' was already taken.

That reminds me; I should work on my AD&D scenarios.

Wonder if there will be Gozantis.....

I know it's a teaser, but this was pretty disappointing for me. More characters they've made up out of nothing that I don't care about, centered around Rey 2.0. As someone who grew up reading the X-Wing novels and immersed in the Rogue Squadron games, I was foolishly hoping for Top Gun in Space with the legendary crew, Wedge, Wes, Hobbie, etc.

I mean at least the cinematography looks good, and we're likely to get some neat ships out of it. This minis game is the only Star Wars thing I care about anymore anyway. On the positive side, there's no way this can be as bad as TFA. Hopefully Donnie Yen kicks some ass in this.

I looked up the insignia for the guy in white. 6 red and 6 blue = Fleet Admiral (not high or grand). Just in case anyone was curious.

They've been clear from the start that this wasn't a rogue squadron movie like that.

That's too bad. Banking off the popularity of Rogue Squadron by using Rogue like that is misleading.

"Everything is connected", right? :/

Only if they didn't repeatedly correct that misunderstanding from the start.

Never head of that corrections. Instead I see now cashing in on the hope of Kyle Katarn showing up

I would also happily watch a direct film version of Starfighters of Adumar with absolutely no changes whatsoever. And it would probably be better than Ep 7. But then Rogue and Wraith squadrons were my role models when I was about 13 so...

I'm still hoping for a future Rogue Squadron movie if the franchise kicks off properly with a new generation.

Jyn ersu and khlileh koothorn at some point will have to go into hiding....Alter their names..

Grab some junk ship to flop around in and BAM...Kyle and Jan.

It already did. Though they will need to keep this 1 movie each year to hold on the new kids interested only in the "new stuff".

I hate how some people think this is a Rey origins story. It's not. Just relax.

Not every character has to be connected.

I'm hoping, and have always hoped, for a Rogue Squadron cartoon series. I'd take live-action too, but I don't think they would want to blow a live-action budget on one.

I loved this trailer. Like others have said, that Mon Mothma is great.

Wonder if there will be Gozantis.....

well the AT-ATs are of the same style as Rebels, so more visual tie ins to that era seem likely.

Jyn ersu and khlileh koothorn at some point will have to go into hiding....Alter their names..

I hear they fight dark shadow troopers. Splendid!
