If the reason Lucasfilm changed "Anthology" to "Story" is because they thought the audience was too dumb, I'm dying. I'm dead. I'm dead now. My guess is that "Anthology" reads too much like it's unconnected to the Star Wars universe - sort of how a horror anthology show has little to no throughline between episodes. I like the "Story" wording in a way, because it works well with the fairy tale-esque "A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away." If Lucasfilm had figured out their branding before they announced it, there would be no issue for me - but they gave me options. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disco Stu 15,495 Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 A cameo role near the end, like Tarkin. She apparently had lines at one point but the scenes were cut. This is on the Mon Mothma page on Wookieepedia, but there's no source footnote so take it with a grain of salt: http://starwars.wikia.com/wiki/Mon_Mothma#Development_and_portrayal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TownerFan 4,983 Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 Looks nice. It's kind of WW2, Dirty Dozen-like story set in the SW universe. I'm very curious to hear how Desplat will handle the score. It would be very nice if he'd go for the stark action writing style of the original film (which referred quite a bit to the scores of WW2 films), using some of its thematic material like the Imperial theme and the Death Star motif (even though I suspect he'll be asked to use the Imperial March a lot).

crumbs 14,316 Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 Looks really, really good. Exactly what I expected actually, something that looks like the Star Wars universe but is liberated of the mostly conservative approach in the Episodic films. Handheld, desaturated and gritty! Mon Mothma is a pleasant surprise; looks almost exactly like the actress from ROTS so that's a cool little continuity if so. McDiarmid, Earl Jones and Anthony Daniels cameos wouldn't be too out of place here (well, maybe Daniels). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jay 37,364 Posted April 7, 2016 Share Posted April 7, 2016 I'm sure The Imperial March will be used for scenes with Vader in it and maybe some other stuff. But it would be cooler if they used Williams' '77 Imperial Theme instead. I wonder if they'll use the little 4-note Death Star motif from '77 in the score.

I've got a sneaking suspicion that the Force Theme will be the connective tissue which links all Star Wars films, Anthology and Episode alike, regardless of composer.

I realise it's meant to be the Death Star docking alarm as heard in IV and VI, but it comes across as a poor imitation of the Prometheus trailers (and their excellent repurpose of sound effects from the original Alien trailer).
