2 days to go. And a very interesting clip, to be paused every .5 of a second (or else you'll miss importante stuff, lol)





PS - Don't stop watching until the fat lady sings .... uhh ... I mean, the Grand Admiral laughs

I hope it's entertaining.
4, 5 & 6 were done so well. It delivered on being an epic saga. TFA felt like 4/5/6 all over again- compressed.
 
@R1600Turbo I wouldn't have guessed it although watching for a second time it does appear they are escaping a cataclism. But ... either the Death Star here is still being tested at 30% of the final product full power, or Alderaan was a less solid planet, because Alderaan was turned to dust instantly, no time for escaping.
 
@Hun200kmh In The New Hope before destroying Alderaan, Tarkin says "I think it is time we demonstrated the full power of this station. Set your course for Alderaan." Hence why it exploded. So my guess is that it's not fully operational when they fire on Jedha, only damaging and not fully destroying it.
 
...Hmm, I just noticed that Korean subs for the trailer aren't exactly the same with the spoken lines. Certain liberties were taken, it seems. But hey, what do I know - the extent of my Korean is just enough to get me through an episode of a K-drama anyway.
 
I love the look of the film - it's one of the prettiest trailers that I have seen. I haven't seen much of Greig Fraiser's work before, so it was a pleasant surprise; on the back of this, I'd say he's up there with Roger Deakins, Wally Pfister, Janusz Kamiński, Hoyte van Hoytema and Jack Green. I'll be seeing it purely for the visuals.

But I really hope that some of the footage is trailer-only. I mean, Jyn tells the Rebellion that their only chance is to get their hands on the Death Star plans. Couldn't the Rebellion figure that out for themselves? What else are they going to do? Maybe I am just nitpicking, but to my mind, that's up there with the Resistance failing to check for other planet-destroying superweapons in The Force Awakens. Audiences are smarter than this, and they deserve more.

I was also hoping that she'd be more like Emily Blunt in Edge of Tomorrow or Gina Torres in Firefly and Serenity - capable of doing more than just give inspiring speeches.
 
Another new Rogue One trailer. My anticipation for this movie just keeps on growing. The trailers have been amazing so far, I just hope they aren't giving away too much of the movie.

Doubt it, most of the trailers have been the same scenes. The second or final trailer (since they usually come in threes) was just another bit of info. We got info that this person was an outsider become Rebel that was tough, then we got in reality she was the offspring of a dude that happened to be a lead Empire scientist and that is who she is really facing. The whole Force bring everything around. However, through it all the same bits of action to sell the film have been shown with some new bits between the trailers. I expect a traditional long SW movie in between.
