I loved it. I want to see it again in Cinema, at least another time. Although it had the hype of Episode 1, this one delivers, like Episode 4 did.
Very enjoyable.

Rogue One/Serenity similarities beyond starring Alan Tudyk.

For those who have seen 'Rogue One', did anybody else think that the ending was pretty similar to 'Serenity'? I'm not accusing the writers of ripping it off or anything, just a lot of similarities:
Large sky battle. It's Star Wars though so this is obvious.
The final land battle is centered around taking a data tape with information about the evil government and broadcasting it via a big antenna.
Alan Tudyk's character dies early in the final conflict.
Things don't go easily in broadcasting the information and so the protagonist has to jump and climb up onto a platform with a long fall below, all while being closely pursued by the villain.
The bad guy is left alive, hurt but alive, at the broadcast platform as the hero(es) hobble away.
Again, not saying the movie ripped off our movie or anything, I quite enjoyed 'Rogue One', but my first thought after it was over was "Wow, that had a very similar ending to 'Serenity'."

Anyone notice that K2SO did Wash's "flick 3 switches" when they getting ready to leave Yavin 4 the first time? I may have miscounted, but it looked like 3 to me.
I enjoyed the movie.
Eta: one of the redditors in the above link caught it as well.

I forgot to mention that one thing which bothered me the most was that many of the best scenes in trailers and clips where left out of the film.

Both were pilots and both had great lines. And didn't K2S0 say something like ' we're coming - for you ' or some such ? Reminded me of when Wash was talking to Zoe, before eventually saving them all w/ the barnswallow maneuver. Forget the exact line, but I thought of Wash as soon as I heard him say it.
And apparently I'm the only one in the 'verse who has an issue w/ the ending to Rogue 1 and the opening scene of Ep 4, A New Hope.

The ridiculous claim by the Princess that her ship was on a " diplomatic mission to Alderran " , when CLEARLY it was just involved in the huge battle and was in hot pursuit by a Star Destroyer which it had just ran from at the end of R-1 !!

I keep forgetting to also mention that I enjoyed the continuity of all of the rebel pilots reveling in the 70's fashion motif - hair, stache, and they need some monster lapels.

I actually did not like the movie, and neither did my crew. I get there wasn't time for character development, but there really wasn't ANY in this, and half of the scenes were nightmare level busy. Several times I looked at hubby and asked when it would be over, as all but the last quarter of the movie d.r.a.g.g.e.d. on. Even had the stereotypical "opening and closing of the dangerous vent" thing from Galaxy Quest. I went into it knowing that all the characters would die, but there was no inspiration to be gleaned here. I didn't care when they died, except for the damn robot.
They even managed to make the death of the Asian guy feel like they were making fun of the force. It was more dumb luck, him pulling the lever, than any connection with the force. His sidekick might as well have been wearing a red shirt...
I won't own it, and I won't be watching it again. But then, hype doesn't make me like a movie more...
