Hey, I'm not complaining. If I'm watching it, it's for Forest Whitaker alone.Token female is an Oscar Nominee, token black male is an Oscar Winner. Oh noes.

Probably holograms by then I hope, even though I won't be around to see them.With this model there will never be an end. My great great grandkids will be watching Star Wars movies.

Maybe...
Pos vi said:Rogue Squadron was an elite pilot group organized by Luke Skywalker and Wedge Antilles. There's overlap.
TheAdvocate said:How can that be? They get the plans to Leia before Luke even leaves Tatooine.
Yes it's set between ep3 and 4.
They finally make a spin off from the main series, an opportunity where they can do literally ANYTHING with the universe. They somehow decide to go with a 4th Death Star story line, after just releasing one the year before, itself a missed opportunity to do something new.Finally, all of the people bitching about the death star... It's going to be more of a back drop than an active threat. This will be a gritty (for star wars) character story, obviously set in multiple locales. It looks absolutely amazing. I cannot wait.
Is it a stupid question to ask if Star Wars fans are at all disappointed with these choices?
No. See the post above yours.
I'm probably more interested in this than TFA.
Do we know if Tarkin is in it? The guy doesn't quite fit the look.
Why would that even be necessary when they can nail the look of other characters so well like with Mon Mothra?
oh yeah can't wait. loving the donnie yen action too!
If Luke hasn't even left Tatooine yet, he can't have formed Rogue Squadron. Unless this is a precursor to the formal founding later on. Also, Wedge at that time was just another rebel pilot.

The person they cast as Mon looks pretty damn close to the original. They did a good job on that.Mon looked great, like she just stepped out of Jedi and just shed some years.
The guy with her also looks like the images I recall from the warship captain I believe he is supposed to be representing even though I forget the name at the moment.
Forest Whitaker is playing a kidnapped cricket hurler who is eventually killed by his kidnapper; the kidnapper who in turn then meets and develops an amorous relationship with Whitaker's doted-upon surprise tranny girlfriend.
Yeah agreed, I think an Obi-Wan movie with McGregor would be way better than a Boba Fett movie. I feel odd in that I was never obsessed with Boba Fett (AND HOW COOL HE IS) like everyone else seems to be.
Well, you have to understand the scopes of the two movies drastically different. One movie was set to launch several new trilogies while the other is just puree entertainment, money making opportunity.
Which is which?
Damn that Mon Mothma look alike nailed it!
Are you talking about the guy in white? I dont think thats him. I thought they were going to digitally add Peter Cushing.
