The last scene with Vader was one of the best moments in all of Star Wars. Rogue One also addressed the most questionable plot mechanisms in the original trilogy in a very believable way. It was

The Empire Strikes Back didn't have a happy ending and it's considered the best Star Wars movies and one of the best movies all time.

This is the franchise where Anakin murdered the Jedi kindergarten kids.  Ordinary characters are sacrificed by the planet to move the plot forward.  Throughout the Star Wars movies, the rebels barely win at great cost through the extraordinary efforts of supernatural heros.

Disney is going to whore out every Star Wars plot imaginable. $$$$

I'm part of that problem, I'll pay and watch.

That may be true, but they are still better than Lucas' prequels...

Cabbage is better than cat turds but that's not good enough for me to build a diet  around it!

I've always dived into Star Wars vs Star Trek but honestly Public Security Section 9 from Ghost in the Shell would take down the Empire in an instant.

Why did the fleet just hyperjump into a star?  Um they got hacked...

It isn't possible to spoil this movie

I avoided this thread and just saw it last night...Everything went pretty much exactly as expected besides the fact that I didn't expect them to use the death Star at all
