crumbs 14,313 Posted April 28, 2020 Share Posted April 28, 2020 My care factor was pretty low for this but I'll give Disney credit for filling these shows with great casts. Mandalorian had exceptional casting, also. And Diego Luna is actually a fantastic actor, he was just totally wasted in Rogue One by a director who can't direct actors for shit. Wonder who will score this? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd kinda prefer different composers tackled each show, just to give each series a distinct musical flavour. Now that Williams has finished with Star Wars, it's a good opportunity to expand the musical palette of the franchise with fresh blood (just like Ludwig with Mando).

mstrox 6,651 Posted January 21, 2021 Share Posted January 21, 2021 It will be an interesting test of the Lucasfilm Story Group to see if Gilroy utilizes the serviceable meet-cute between Cassian and K2 from the comics, or if Gilroy came up with some grand plan that contradicts it. I honestly have no problem with the tiered canon of the Legends days - what happens onscreen takes precedent, what happens in the ancillary materials is canon until the films/TV contradict it (for instance, I recall hearing that TCW season 7 conflicted with the Ahsoka book in some minor ways).

greenturnedblue 372 Posted June 13, 2021 Share Posted June 13, 2021 You know I always thought it was never always meant to be "Saw" in Rogue One, just sometime during production they had the idea for Forrest Whitakers character to be Saw from CW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thor 7,500 Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 Peculiar to do a show about a character from ROGUE ONE, especially knowing his death and fate is already sealed (but similar to Anakin's story in the prequels etc., I suppose). And who -- to be honest -- is a relatively unknown in the STAR WARS universe. But by all means, I devour these STAR WARS shows all day long, and can't get enough of them. So bring it on.

Disco Stu 15,495 Posted February 10, 2022 Share Posted February 10, 2022 I'm not sure if this series will be fun in the traditional sense, unless they starkly veer from the tone of Rogue One (which is possible). I really liked Cassian in the movie. It was cool to explore the psychological effects of fighting for the Rebellion on the average foot soldiers. Sort of like that great TNG episode "Lower Decks" (not the horrible cartoon show). Diego Luna was very good portraying this man who had been broken by all the moral compromises he had had to make. I look forward to this show very much! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Docteur Qui 1,544 Posted February 17, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted February 17, 2022 I don’t hate Giacchino, I think he’s a talented guy and enjoy many of his scores. But whenever he tries to directly emulate Williams, like in Rogue One or Jurassic World I can’t stand it. Hearing his style side-by-side with Williams’ just highlights how limited his palette is when it comes to melody, harmony and orchestral texture. What I’ve heard of Brittel so far is very unlike Williams, which is ideal in this circumstance. crumbs, Holko and GerateWohl 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
